By the way, if you're wanting to replicate this, it was done with an older version of Rampant. The newer ones are more forgiving and have the different factions on by default. Just trying to clear things up for the people asking me why their death world rampant runs aren't nearly as insane as this. You can pull an older version from the mod portal if you're really interested in reliving the Dosh™ experience

Different factions of bugs? I never played Factorio and the link two videos I've ever watched of it happened in 2015 or so. But one of the first things I thought watching this video (which I thoroughly enjoyed, by the way) was: it would be really interesting if there were multiple warring factions of bugs on the map that only see you as one more variable in their plans. You even talked about "their Western front" at one point, and that sounded like a cool thing.

Yea, poison capsule's only weakness is that it do not deal a lot of damage instantly. The thing is ultimate worm killer, just hop into a tank (or car), barge in, throw 5-6 capsule onto each worm, retreat while dealing with the horde, then go in and deal with all the nest once the worms die. Those poison cloud also spawn kill every bitter up to the big one (and damaged the behemoth so hard you can easily deal with them) so other than the initial wave, you are free to deal with the nest however you want. A nest with no worm and all bitter die as soon as they spawn is no threat.

(FYI: your math for 320 damage assumes 2 poison capsules stacked) And people underestimate combat bots. The defender only costs 3 red ammo, 3 gears, and 3 circuits, and is a flying SMG with infinite ammo that lasts 45 seconds and does 24 DPS, which maxes out at 1,080 damage! Plus the defender only takes military science (no blue). The distractor bot comes after military 3 (same level as poison capsules), and is a better version of the poison capsule. It does 7.5 DPS (slightly less), but lasts for for 45 seconds (instead of 20), and its damage is affect by research upgrades. Plus, a single distractor capsule will spawn 3 distractor bots, so 7.5 * 45 * 3 is again just over 1,000 damage!

I really feel more people need to know this about rampant: the biter AI has a set of states and those states are restricted to only certain aggression levels. Iirc, the "siege" ai state is responsible for biters doing base creep. There is another more general expansion state too for more sparsely placed bases and one for consolidating and expanding existing bases. Both of these states are reatriced to certain aggression levels or "temperment" as it is refered to. additionally, biters do things like make new nests and generate units for attack based on points. They recieve points based on pollution AND destruction of bases. Destroying bases also raises their temperment which generally results in more dangerous ai states being allowed. Beware the dangerous quiet before the storm. Some temperments have a "peaceful" state mixed in. The biters will STOCKPILE points recieved during this. When it switches to a new state, this can result in an absolute nonstop flood of biters for minutes straight. I once had one for 20 minutes or so. on final thing, you mentioned biters being "gravitationally pulled" towards you? Thats them smelling you out. Biters will track players down based on "scent". A similar system *can* push biters towards less dangerous attack routes from them "smelling" dead bitters... generally they dont seem to do this much in my experience outside of certain cases such as a loooooong wall with turrets behind it but a gap in defense towards one or either end

Regarding the "Weird Square Formation" with unmoving enemies: The mod states that it uses "potential fields" to do it's pathfinding and to find attack vectors and strategies pertaining to them. Thing is, potential fields (and other systems that use gradients and whatnot) have a certain weakness, the "local minimum/minima problem". Basically it's when (in the case of this example, a potential field) the system is getting stuck in a local 'minimum' instead of reaching the desired global one. Consider a marble rolling down hills to detect the deepest valley between them. It would get stuck in the first valley even though others might be deeper, because from the marbles perspective, the moment its at the deepest part of even a shallow pit, everything else goes up, which is not what it seeks, it seeks down. Thus, it gets stuck. So, maybe it hit an edge case, or some error that caused the local field chunk of its overall considered options to be "good enough", not reaching far enough to notice that something else is beyond its local area of consideration. The marble being stuck in a shallow valley, not being able to see beyond the hills around it. Going in depth on this is beyond the scope of this comment, and probably my ability to explain/teach anyway. (caush I'm nud det shmort)

@NavidIsANoob 2 жыл бұрын

Cool stuff. Is it an often used pathfinding algorithm in games? What would be the "goto" algorithm to figure out pathfinding?

@lofwyr5063 2 жыл бұрын

@@NavidIsANoob It's probably not the goto pathfinding algorithm. I think it's mostly used in machine learning and AI for machines directly (like drones and robots) and sometimes the approach is different too. I think used for robots it's swapped around, where obstacles are repulsers and whatnot. But in such cases the local minimum problem also exists, usually when the machine is faced (perfectly) symmetrical obstacles, especially coupled with narrow pathways, but even without the pathway. Imagine you're standing at a fork in road. And there are signs on each direction. Both telling you that something equally unpleasant is at the end of either. You wouldn't want to choose either fork direction and you might just wait at the fork waiting for salvation there. Only the robot will do it 100% of the time unless his better judgement gets overridden with evil, human whisperings in the code that something good is beyond the local badness. ...hope... lol Anyway, I think the most used pathfinding system in games is A*, at least that's what everyone was using when I was interested in game making 10 years ago or so, but didn't go through with it.

Back when copper plates had a different shape from iron. In fact, I remember now, it was literally the update that added oil to the game. No tank, he just drove around in a car tossing slowdown and poison capsules by the hundreds and lapping them around the 1x1 laser turret walls. Constant attacks, no space. He didn't even use a traditional main bus and... now that run is privated or gone or sth.

Last time I did something like this, I required dual line of lasers with my flames. With my very limited power and capacity it was impossible to support just he passive drain; therefore I had to group the lasers into sub-power grid groups that were un-powered till a sensor laser fired. Finally the power systems would disable core base power when the power storage got to low and monitor for day/night cycles for power plant efficiency (to reduce coal consumption rate and pollution generation). The UPS eventually forced me to disable the modded biters I was using unfortunately.

There are indeed settings in the mod settings section for it that let you turn on where they only attack at night (BUT STILL BUILD UP ATTACKING FORCES DURING THE DAY so if you enable it expect some BIG attack groups at night XD) and make it to where they ignore rails and power poles and lamps so you dont have to worry about rail worlds and stuff. I wont lie i active those settings, im not ashamed :p. Also youre downloading fireproof bots but in rampants mod settings theres a setting to make construction and/or logistics bots invulnerable. I like it, great video and fun run lol. Thank you for letting me know in advance that i may not like death world settings cause i was thinking about it XD. Ive never done a death world was also thinking how hard can it be XD. I have other mods installed tho, its not pure vanilla with rampant (and armored) so that should help me immensely with staying alive. I shall now subscribe and go watch more while i procrastinate actually playing

@tantamounted 2 жыл бұрын

I like the idea that you have to care about your bot supply, but also not having to worry about burning your own bots during an attack. So invulnerable bots isn't quite right for that.

@ThwartAbyss54 2 жыл бұрын

@@tantamounted i also prefer my bots to be a resource i use not just set and forget. That was more toward the rails and power lines cause those do get annoying when they chase a train and then just start tearing into tracks when they cant catch up. I was just letting people know to always check your mod settings and see whats all available cause some of them have a lot of customization available

I can't believe you did this without also installing Rampant Arsenal! My one rampant playthrough has the accompanying arsanel but I've still had to temporarily uninstall rampant once to recove from a particularly bad biter attack. So watching you triumph over this challenge is particularly impressive!

@lofwyr5063 2 жыл бұрын

@@DoshDoshington Hmm, maybe you can cut those numbers down. In a hectic game it might be more difficult, but, if you keep your mind on it, you could perhaps rig some sort of stopwatch that generates timecodes, which you bind to some key. So, if you know you're going to be doing some irrelevant tedium, you hit that stopwatch, a timecode gets generated, you do your thing, you hit the watch again and another timecode is generated. Then you can consult this table to speed up editing. Alternatively, you could probably just record a secondary utility audio track, write a little script/batch that uses a command line utility like 'sox' to generate a tone (that you wont hear and only gets written to the utility audio track). If it's synched up more or less with your game footage, then you can import that utility track and all the peak regions will signify a cut.
