  • To be fair, the budget isn’t so much a question of “how much I have”, but rather a question of “how long am I willing to save up”

    The 3K figure I used in my post was based on the relative price of similar systems I’d found online that “mostly” for the bill of what I was looking for.

    Systems that actually had the kind of CPU I was looking for often ran in the range of 7K, which would take me about two to three years to save up for.

    And while yes, I was looking in the wrong catagory, as far as I can tell they don’t sell non-NAS systems. I wasn’t able the find a single example of a server designed for CPU tasks until I posted here and was recommended the Minisforum MS-01. Which is, admittedly, overkill in the extreme, but at least I won’t have to upgrade for a long while, and I only have to save up for 3 or 4 months to afford it!
















  • I’ll make a list of some good ones to start with.

    Hand Craft Priority This let’s you move thing around in the hand crafting que.

    More Minimap Autohide Hide the minimap if it’s preventing entity data from being shown. Very useful.

    Ammo Group Barreling Group Schall Circuit Group Schall Transport Group These four just move various items into their own crafting category so they don’t clutter up the the menu. This is very important if you have many mods that add items.

    Double Speed Belts Makes it so tier 3 belts move at exactly twice the speed of tier 2 belts, and tier 1 at half the speed of tier 2. This let’s you use splitters easier.

    Realistic Heat Glow Science Pack Glow Black Rubber Belts These three just make things look nicer.

    Clockwork Enhances the day/night cycle. Very customizable.

    Inventory Repair Auto repairs items that are in your inventory using repair packs.

    Inserted Fuel Leech Makes fuel inserters actually useful

    Enhanced Map Colors Visual improvement. Makes the map easier to read.

    Fluid Must Flow Flow Control These two make handling fluids much nicer and simpler.

    Informatron Let’s mods include ingame tutorials on how to use them. Sometimes, it’s almost impossible to understand what’s going on without it.

    Squeak Through Makes it so you can navigate your base easier.

    Extended Descriptions Adds important details to item descriptions that you would otherwise have to look up online to find.
