So I’m preface this by saying I love this game as it lets me just do things and forget about life for a while. But, I kind of suck at planning (ADHD) and so I’ll just end up watching play throughs and building what they build, where I would rather just play it on my own but I can never keep the motivation to see what I should do next.

So I’m wondering is there some kind of checklist for each step.

Like:

  • Gather resources
  • Set up electric power
  • Get 1 red science per second set up
  • etc

This is as worded hella poorly and I will delete if not well received.

    My checklist is the build menu. I try to make an automated setup for everything in the game that makes sense. (I don't for things like artillery guidance widget. Only need 1.)

    If I need more of a thing, I build another setup. I don't go for N science per minute. I prefer enough labs to balance a red science pack assembler, then balance the other colors by that ratio. If it's too slow, I double it.

      Thanks for the response.

      Yeah another person said they focus less on N number of times per second and more, build more if you need more.

      I’ll keep an eye on the build menu and let that guide me.

    I kind of use FNEI as a todi-list. I favorite whatever item is next on my agenda.

    I also write reminders with concrete and walls now and then.

      I think I’ve tried FNEI before so I’ll try that again and favourite things I’m working on.

      Erm… writing reminders in walls is something I can get behind. Haha.
