Internal activities over external activities #105

Open veden opened 1 year ago

veden commented 1 year ago

In my experience Rampant sometimes switches to internal activities and wastes points on local migration. This is additionally provoked by factorio game engine: it generates far away chunks (3 chunks away from charted chunks border and 10 chunks away from player farthest visited chunks - the most distant point of these two is taken for chunk pre-generation area selection mechanism). It leads to effect that depending on map picture biters activities may sometimes (in over 50% cases or more!) target the areas you haven't even discovered yet. :-(

As I see it: If you don't have buildings 3-4 chunks away from biters nests they will prefer internal activities to sieging or raiding your infrastructure.
