It's the number of precursors plus the number of particle emitters used

Yeah, count me in

Hang on, how on earth has someone managed to be massively slower then my terrible mebicar solution according to the histograms? I filled up the entire list!

Unless... they're exploiting the rotational symmetry, only doing one half of the molecule per run, and using a tactically placed output that only hits something every other run? Urrgh, nasty

Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.
Speaking of mebicar, my solution is pretty loving bad but I love the symmetry of it :allears:

It’s me, I’m the guy who got to epinephrine before realizing they could shift the emitters left and right :downs:

Lemme get this outta the way for you:

You can also move the starting position of emitters by dragging them
You can also rotate emitters by pressing Q and E while dragging them

I mean, I’m not that clueless! But being able to shift them mid-process was a game changer for me.

Now if I can just get better at getting the right bonds I’ll be golden. I feel like I do a bunch of clean up work adding and subtracting H atoms to get it just right.

If you must blink, do it now.

I wish I'd recorded my reaction when I discovered this by accident, idly futzing with the scroll wheel while I was moving one of them.

Jesus Zach works fast. He promised to look in to a minor stuttering gif bug just yesterday and less than 24 hours later the fix was included in an update.

Valnoctamide in 240:

For reference, the stuttering version

Epinephrine in 479:


Edit: removed a module and a symbol from valnoctamide

Oh my god you can rotate emitters

I’m, like, almost done with the game :shepface:

Ha, same.
I’ve also managed to completely miss the existence of the shunt command until today.

Kinda explains the severe drop off in my results :bang:

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are. You are destiny.
