This sticker's even older than me iirc

In the start of the universe, god said "Let there be Blood Belly Comb Jelly sticker in the official c2s discord server!"

I did restart and semi-randomly spent all my meta on the boosters. Should result in an overall 3x speed increase. I'm happy with that ๐Ÿ™‚

not much. Just comparing new multipliers to old.

Wtf are time crystals?

The infinity pass is way too expensive for such a short time

#

approaching 4 days into an empty Sim run but I still have a few entropy upgrades that'd increase the efficiency a ton. Should I keep waiting till 21 days or should I get these first & then start a 21 day run?

#

if I do one now, would I be able to afford the Triassic terminator/ information theory upgrades?

#

if a person saves enough data is possible, or if like a giant table of values is made

#

like you take your multiplers from the prev reboot, take the multi difference from this reboot, then account for time

amber canyon
white egret
#

prob lol

amber canyon
white egret
#

oh yeah thats what i mean with the difference

#

there wont be an exact one to one gain from multiplers (because the opportunity to buy generators and upgrades can change) but in late game its roughly the same

amber canyon
white egret
#

lol gm

amber canyon
#

Well, cloudy and rainy. So not good.

warm basin
polar viper
white egret
#

time we know the formulas, and for the other 2 you can make a table maybe

white egret
amber canyon
white egret
#

oh generator number i forgot about that

#

thats also roughly related to your other boosts tho

#

like with more entropy you can buy more generators etc etc

forest anchor
white egret
forest anchor
#

Sometimes there aren't any reasonable reasons and you have to admit it

polar viper
amber canyon
#

And ofc something like an update changes stuff. Including (possibly) the data you've carefully gathered over time.

forest anchor
#

A bad day doesn't mean a bad life

#

Possibly

white egret
#

they're TOS so unless the devs have a change of heart they wont be public

amber canyon
#

My Dinos haven't seen day for maybe a year now. They're stuck in nighttime hell.

Oh huh

#

I'm scatterbrained rn apparently

amber canyon
#

Does a volcano erupting count as a change in weather?

white egret
#

"existence is enough" yk?

polar viper
forest anchor
white egret
#

volcanos can change the weather, so yeah

forest anchor
amber canyon
forest anchor
white egret
#

ah idrc lol

forest anchor
#

Me too lmao

polar viper
#

Yeah moving to general. Thats instant discussion killer

white egret
#

i just love happiness

amber canyon
#

I was thinking that as I typed. I'm (almost) trained.

But it'll die in general, so no point going there.

polar viper
forest anchor
white egret
#

oh on the note of updates changing the tables n such

#

it should be easily calculatable

amber canyon
#

Or without.

forest anchor
#

Ah

polar viper
forest anchor
#

Pretty sure that isn't the case in the Mesozoic Valley...

white egret
#

like since the game is turing complete, and solvable, you should be able to reach most states you want quickly, even if an update changes some numbers

amber canyon
#

I can still see the stars while it's erupting. The sea doesn't boil.

white egret

#

how do i progress thru beyond ranks(i'm on rank 25)

polar viper
forest anchor
polar viper
#

Depending on your number of badges etc

white egret
keen mango
amber canyon
white egret
#

it might squish or stretch the time frame of some period but i dont think it changes it completely

amber canyon
white egret
keen mango
#

i'ma just upgrade horsehead nebula, orion spur and orion nebula

white egret
amber canyon
polar viper
amber canyon
white egret
#

but an actual answer is that since the randomness can never like, destroy a state, it can only move it along a branch that already existed (just in the future) then it doesnt have a large effect

amber canyon
white egret
#

like (afaik) its always a constant multiple of your income, so it just moves you into the future

forest anchor
#

X_X

white egret
#

yeah we're talking about cts

polar viper
#

U think cells is solvable but even chess isnt really which is a way way simpler game than any pc game

white egret
#

chess is solvable?

#

it just hasnt been solved yet

forest anchor
#

Chess is actually a complex game /nsrs

polar viper
#

Nah chess is simple. Small Board. Very limited move Sets. Very clear rules.

white egret
#

also this is somewhat easier since there isnt competition in cells

amber canyon
white egret
#

do nothing
buy something

forest anchor
#

Small board? Yes
Clear rules? Yes
Limited move sets? I guess?
The possibilities? I wonder...

polar viper
amber canyon
polar viper
#

And for cells this is endless more

white egret
#

but they'll only be 1 optimal path in cells per state

amber canyon
#

I'll be a grand master in no time ๐Ÿ˜œ

polar viper
amber canyon
#

whatdya mean people have been trying to solve this for centuries. Pah. They:re just not trying hard enough. And they didn't believe in my perpetual motion machine either

polar viper
#

You need weighting functions to drastically simplifiy the buy decision or you have too many decision branches

white egret
#

there are ways to cull branches, also we dont have to solve completly, even if we do like a depth 10 solve per reasonable state thats pretty good

polar viper
#

So without heuristics u are done

amber canyon
polar viper
forest anchor
amber canyon
white egret
#

we can cull any state where some generator has been bought with a worse income cost ratio than another given it doesnt unlock anything optimal

#

thats like infinity% of the states

forest anchor
polar viper
#

But i used chess as one of the simplest games to bruteforce aka go every possible possibility

#

Most other games explodes way faster

white egret
#

oh actually this reminds me of something annoying in beyond, when you are buying more than 1 generator and you go over a rank, it doesnt calculate your gains at that new rank

polar viper
#

So the entire Idea of solvable is useless

white egret
#

i think an event would be the easiest thing to solve, since it has the least extra stuff

#

whats the smallest event?

forest anchor
#

Not sure

#

Wait

white egret
#

oh i can check actually

forest anchor
#

Why am I not sure

#

Cryptids of course

polar viper
#

Also u dont want to solve a game, you just want the probably 99% most optimal path

forest anchor
#

Face Your Fears is undoubtedly the smallest exploration at the moment

polar viper
#

For Events it would have a use too

#

Like a suggestion what to buy next

#

Or when to save

#

And how long to stay offline

white egret
#

oh yeah ive been thinking on what itd look like for a bit lol

white egret
#

the largest is plague

forest anchor
#

Plague? Didn't expect that

hollow pelican
#

is it

white egret

it just barely beat money

amber canyon

I got a chess certificate ... I'm an eXpErT now

(I kinda suck lmfao)

amber canyon

(as of 5 mins ago that is)

white egret

i suck im like 900 ish?, but that was a year ago

forest anchor
#

900 in what?

white egret
#

elo

forest anchor
#

Of which pace?

amber canyon
# forest anchor Wanna have a game of chess? \/nsrs

I am actually terrible at chess.

The last game I played (laser chess) I did win, but it took a while. And it turned out my opponent thought they were playing the same colour as me. So ... We both won? Kinda?

white egret
#

casual

forest anchor
#

No no no trex_skull

#

There's rapid blitz and bullet?

white egret
#

yeah i only play casually lol

#

ive barely played against people tho

#

im bad but my friends are worse :/

forest anchor
#

I'm 800 rapid but 1100 blitz, 3 minutes timer is good because when I blunder people will mess up their time management for no reason and I can at least make a draw

#

Anyways I just realized I'm misusing this channel once again goddammit

white egret
#

lol

polar viper
#

I see we all play cells for a reason

#

We are all terrible in chess

white egret
#

not of how long it takes

amber canyon
white egret
#

actually i think i have all the data i need to make this solver

polar viper
white egret
#

oh god im gonna have to make trees arent i

#

surely i can make dictionaries of dictionaries

amber canyon
white egret
#

oh no i mean the data structure

#

for parsing

#

cause per node youre gonna need: cost, reqs, (if gen) income, (if upgrade) multi,(if upgrade) target gen

amber canyon
#

Anyway, stuff to do. Have fun y'alls.

white egret
#

have a good one imma helldive

you cant say "how it feels" and then the events just happen

Found it.

tall laurel

Did the something went wrong bug got fixed?

autumn galleon

Yeah if you update

tall laurel
#

New update?

#

Lemme check

#

Where was the day it updated or I'm blind

#

๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

Was it rn?

true vigil
#

can we all agree episode 27 is the worst part to replay in beyond

#

like holy bad balancing

forest anchor
#

It's kind of bad, indeed, but I don't think it's that bad

true vigil
#

it slows you down unnecesarily

#

28 is faster to rebeat iirc

forest anchor
#

I simply don't enjoy both

hollow pelican
#

I don't remember

swift heron
#

I see both 27 and 28 are unbalanced

#

Like without the 4x boost overdrive beyond would have taken me WEEKS for ONE generator

#

I kinda dont want to get to episode 29 cause it will probably have the worst balancing by far

forest anchor
#

And you are correct

tropic fiber
#

28 is taking too long

#

about 2 weeks in

#

these used to barely take 2 weeks

#

and now 2 weeks in im not even halfway there

true vigil
#

or more specificly beacause sag dwarf and mag cloud are worthless

tropic fiber
forest anchor
#

Those astronomical structures are large

#

Normally the generator's timer is based on how large they are (e.g. Jupiter takes longer to generate Stardust than Mercury)

tawdry parrot
#

Will I be able to get these last two achievements in part 2?

#

of beyond

#

or should I wait before upgrading at rank 17 to get them

junior fox
white egret
#

so it doesnt really matter? if you want to you can wait to get them but there isnt much need to

junior fox
#

What with that card, I have opened 150+ stars and still can't get it

Do any of you have any tips on how to boost entropy production to progress in the new mollusk update?

# flint ore Do any of you have any tips on how to boost entropy production to progress in th...

For 'normal' play, as normal: focus on getting your most effective generators and as your time chambers to grow it'll help (the purple ones boost entropy).

For active min-maxing: spam reboot to get more reality engine nodes to boost your speed and get more boosts and stuff.

For passive min-maxing and when Spam-Rebooting is no longer effective: Do Empty Sim - i.e. reboot and don't buy any generators, wait till your time crystals hit max (~21days) and then start buying.

For bonus min-maxing in Empty Sim: Leave the game open in e.g. Beyond or Meso and open up primary occasionally. This will make in game time pass twice as fast for time nodes.

white egret
#

also a tip for normal play: the value sorting in the menu doesnt sort by income over cost, its just the income, so you might not be getting as good a deal as you expect

white egret
#

a way to find income over cost (quickly) is the set the buy mode to "max" as everything will be the same cost, you can then judge by the income, ofc you might buy too much of a generator then

amber canyon
tawdry parrot
amber canyon
#

Hmm. Coming up to 8 days in to this empty sim run and would be 1/10th of the way to Tachyon Funnel (metabits crystals at ~45) if I rebooted now.

tawdry parrot
#

I just started the event at 1d 2h, is it a long or short event?

I think

I appeared once and it didn't appear anymore

#

I could finish the ep20 in beyond

#

To get the achievement

amber canyon

It's like so far out of reach, it seems really unreasonable

is this like episode 29 problems

they increased the prices???

#

lowered the stardust production??

amber canyon

#

Wow that's crazy, I didn't look at the numbers more closely

#

That's outrageous

#

I have 5 and 5 of it's upgrades and all of the relevant constellations and it would take many weeks, or even months to get a single one lmao

My condolences

It's so over for us

I just got to where I was in episode 25

wait, you unlock something if you get rank 3 in omega cen?

pseudo cliff

cuz I got near and far 3kpc arms from perseus

lone bronze

Not really imo

tawdry parrot
#

beyond part 2 here we come

lone bronze
tawdry parrot
#

huh why am I starting at the sun?

lone bronze
lone bronze
#

it's just normal beyond with more generators and you can zoom out further

tawdry parrot
#

what about series 2 then

lone bronze
#

just normal

tawdry parrot
#

when do I get the series 2 lootboxes

lone bronze
#

upgrade universe, reset progress

lone bronze
#

you get all of them

#

well there are new stars

tawdry parrot
#

I just started 18

lone bronze

once you unlock the first generator I think?

#

sorry to disappoint but...

#

episode 18 is just like all the others

tawdry parrot
#

cant be the only one who thought part 1 and part 2 were seperate

lone bronze
#

just new lootboxes and stuff

tawdry parrot
#

cuz part 1 was a slouch already

lone bronze
#

but ppl eventually maxed it and realized

tawdry parrot
#

:/

lone bronze
#

though every object from sun to alpha cen gets a little buff

pseudo cliff
lone bronze
#

1.5x speed that doubles every episode

tawdry parrot
#

whats even more lame is that u barely get rare/epic cards so getting to the new generators barely gets shorter

#

its not comparable to meso

#

im disappointed

amber canyon
lone bronze
tawdry parrot
lone bronze
tawdry parrot
#

but I suppose I can park beyond

lone bronze
#

I play mostly freemium, only spend my darwinium on time fluxes in primary

#

and only get it from synthesizers and next level mindsets

pseudo cliff
#

Time fluxes? ๐Ÿ˜ญ

amber canyon
pseudo cliff
#

Why would you ever do that

lone bronze
tawdry parrot
#

real life time is free bro

lone bronze
#

I hate that they raised the price

#

from 3 to 10 dar

tawdry parrot
#

beyond would be way easier if dark matter gain scaled properly like in meso

pseudo cliff
# lone bronze idk

Do you have all modules and upgrades already? You wanna get all of those first

amber canyon
lone bronze
#

and I have alpha to delta

#

maybe epsilon but I haven't checked

tawdry parrot
#

clicking also doesnt do jack in beyond

#

my meso click is 400% vs beyond 80%

pseudo cliff
amber canyon
white egret
white egret
#

what exactly is the "value" that the solver is trying to maximise? my first idea is income/(cost*time)

#

time is the time to buy the items to get the income

#

i think this makes sense but i wanna get a 2nd opinion

amber canyon
#

Increase in income/s for cost?

white egret
#

so just income/cost?

amber canyon
#

I'd say income/s rather than income. But depends on your definition.

white egret
#

income is amount/s already?

forest anchor
#

amount/s^2 /nsrs

white egret
#

like your income is your gain in currency over time

amber canyon
tawdry parrot
#

it seems my speed to alpha centauri isnt that slow

#

I really need to win events

white egret
#

lol is that a directly translated phrase

amber canyon
#

Feel free to disagree ๐Ÿ˜

white egret
#

it could also depend on the context

#

but i think here since we already have a word that doesnt include time (currency/money) then income can be used as is

amber canyon
#

Okay. Definitions. Sorted. ๐Ÿ˜

white egret
#

anyway its besides the point, i think (currency/s)/cost not taking into account time to gain that currency/s

forest anchor
#

Arch Dux has a scoring system in his 'Ultimate Beyond Data Spreadsheet' thing btw

white egret
#

like if you gain 10 income for 1 cost but it takes you a day, instead of the 1 income for 1 cost but it takes a second

amber canyon
tawdry parrot
#

is there a command for roadmap

white egret
#

sorry i realise i didnt finish the sentence you replied to lol

white egret
amber canyon
amber canyon
white egret
#

yeah

#

cause im assuming this will look far into the future of a run

#

(altho in the case of events, finishing quick might be more important)

amber canyon
#

Hmm. I tend to buy momentarily. But then I wait till I can buy at least one of everything.

white egret
white egret
amber canyon
#

Predictive - you going to consider future effect of upgrades too?

white egret

yes

I dont like matcha ๐Ÿ˜ญ

white egret
#

lol

amber canyon
forest anchor
amber canyon
#

Ah. I was using the Discord search.

white egret
#

like the finished product will be a path like:

  1. buy 2 of gen A
  2. buy upgrade A
  3. buy 3 of gen B
    etc etc
forest anchor
#

So... counting upgrades too?

white egret
#

yes

forest anchor
#

Uh huh

#

Interesting

white egret
#

itll be instructions for the "optimal play"

forest anchor
#

Buy Planet Earth first for sure at least

#

Then Primordial soup

#

After that... let the imagination begin /j

white egret
#

lol

#

im trying to tackle events first since theyre simpler

#

the only things you can do are buying upgrades or generators

#

(and are only effected by themselves)

amber canyon
white egret
#

yeah thats what i was worried about too

#

i mean an argument can be made that splitting income up isnt valid cause its treated differently? but i dont think that flies

#

(valid as in makes sense in reality)

amber canyon
#

Could it be considered as 'acceleration'?

white egret
#

its not accelerating anything tho its just a squared freqrency

amber canyon
#

Just tryna think of a physical equivalent ๐Ÿ˜

white egret
#

lol yeah

#

i view income as a velocity mostly

copper wraith
#

fact

forest anchor
#

How did this become "i view income as a velocity mostly" while I was away bruh

tawdry parrot
forest anchor
#

Speed and velocity isn't the same thing

#

Forgot what's scalar and what's vector

white egret
#

velocity is scalar iirc

#

oh hey im wrong!

amber canyon
#

Speed has magnitude. Velocity has direction and magnitude..

white egret
#

oh lmao

#

oh duh that makes sense

#

ok so angular acceleration is the only thing there measured in inverse square seconds

#

oh it just sent me to wrong page for one of them

copper wraith
#

how is this c2s related??

white egret
#

still somewhat

forest anchor
#

Acceleration is measured in inverse square seconds tho??

#

Overall

white egret
#

no its length/time^2

#

thats the issue

white egret
forest anchor
#

Eh isn't angular acceleration practically the same

#

Ah

white egret
#

yeah

amber canyon
#

Only if you're measuring 'spatial-acceleration'. Other things can accelerate.

white egret
#

true

#

but what is accelerating here

amber canyon
#

I shall ponder. But gotta head for now.

white egret
#

ah ill cya

#

ive got sleep too

forest anchor
copper wraith
#

these guys loaded

white egret
#

surely the cost of an item matters?

#

wait does it?

forest anchor
#

It does

#

Change of production rate/cost would be accelerating then /nsrs

white egret
#

it'd be accounted for with the time part tho, since c=c/t*t

#

the time itself encodes the cost, since the only way to make currency is with time

#

if anything, cost and time are just off by multiples of a number (and that number being your income!)

#

I've got to sleep for real but this was helpful

copper wraith
#

smart

forest anchor
#

Until we meet again

copper wraith
#

have a nice sleep

white egret
#

thx I'll cyall

#

that thing in the right corner or buy button is recomendation?

what I should get next

and is it always correct?

isnt it just ability to purchase that showed item?

actually im stupid

You should see the others there eyes_sus

amber canyon

I think you can only see them when you're in Beyond though?

polar viper

Its still in primary, but gotta scroll to the abyss

#

(far down)

amber canyon
#

Huh. Has that changed? I coulda sworn I could only see one of them outside of Beyond before.

Nvm.

polar viper
#

Its like looking behind your couch. You never scroll that far down

#

Upgrades or Modules are better to prioritize with Darwin bits?

frigid adder
amber canyon
#

Otoh if you have the full amount for a module, also worth It (if it boosts something relevant).

maiden spear
#

My augments are 70-100/each upgrades are 18

#

Iโ€™ve gotten all the modules outside of the new Mu one

amber canyon
#

Augments are basically the same as a few of the Entropy Boost or Idea Boost Upgrades. Just with pretty models.

frigid adder

You can eyeball how much it'd cost to buy the Upgrades that have the same effect as what you care about from Mu. Whichever is cheapest (Upgrades or Mu) buy that.

Pretty sure Sepheria discovered another exploit. Doesn't mean they didn't work hard - and I saw them working hard. At the very least until they found that one (whatever it is).

Oh, and for those that care, the node that comes off Entropy Booster XI is || one that gives 5 research chips || as I kinda expected it would.

Yes, that's right

Ok, going to start another empty sim run now, I imagine I'll cash it out after the next update drops

#

Anyone else remember when you got a time estimate for how long it would take to get to the next primary simulation level?

#

I miss that

#

It let me plan ahead

lone bronze
#

I finally got galactic nucleus

fluid delta
# frank oak It let me plan ahead

You still can figure it out, though. Assuming you aren't doing an empty sim run, you can look at the amount of XP you get per second, and the amount of XP you have, and the amount you need for the next level.. and with that, do a little very easy math.

#

.. ofc if you can see the blue circle visibly lengthening as you watch, the math isn't really all that necessary ๐Ÿ™‚

Allright, thanks. 16 days to find out

fluid delta
frank oak
#

I just liked the time estimate because it was helpful

fluid delta
#

Well.. you do. It's not hard to eyeball it, however.

frank oak
#

I have difficulty solving problems like this

#

Iโ€™d rather see all the zeroes at once

#

But that doesnโ€™t work here

#

Which is why the time estimate was helpful for me

fluid delta
#

1 difference in E values: less than a minute. 2 difference: a couple minutes. 3 difference: 20ish minutes. 4 difference: a few hours. 5 difference: a few days. 6+ difference: you're staying where you are for now.

frank oak

I was just saying its helpful

And that I miss it

#

Hello, I have a question regarding the 21d start: Why should I not buy anything for 21d instead of just playing the game "normally" (buying nodes and generators) for 21d and then reboot?

woven marsh
#

i just think it works like this

#

like 60%

fluid delta
# wanton ermine Hello, I have a question regarding the 21d start: Why should I not buy anything ...

bc the multipliers on the time nodes are (basically) used at the point when you buy a generator. If you do a normal run and let that do it's thing for 21 days, then almost all of the generators you buy will be at a very low multiplier when talking about the Time nodes specifically.. whereas if you don't buy any generators until the 21d3h elapses, all of them will be at the capped multipliers... so, a huge difference in entropy, ideas, metabits, knowledge... literally millions of times better if you have all the Time nodes.

wanton ermine
#

interesting, I thought the metabit/knowledge production was based on your entropy/idea income

fluid delta
#

It is. I didn't say how many millions ๐Ÿ™‚

wanton ermine
#

Damn what a way to play a game, I just bought Metabit Time Crystal II and will try out not doing anything for 21d

#

thx guys

fluid delta
#

Put it this way: the difference between 0 min and 21d3h where it caps, is the product of all the capped Time node multipliers. For Entropy, that's 2.5E16 times. E21 for ideas.

#

E6 of that happens at about or on day 21, when the Time Crystals cap

amber canyon
fluid delta
#

That too. I always do quick sim reboots to get the "easy"/cheap reality engine nodes first, when an update drops.

#

Ofc, this may change in future updates. Kinda suspect it will, bc 21 day "empty sim run" strategy is so immensely superior.

#

Now, if they changed that 2.5E16 to, say, 100.. that would make quick sim reboots superior again. If it was 1000 then.. it wouldn't be. Somewhere in-between... well.... "it depends", I guess, and I would guess be what they'd aim for.. though I guess it also depends on how much they want people to do the idle thing in Primary. Or I guess they could also mess with the cap times.. one week could be good. Lots of ways they could finesse the math here, if they don't want to get rid of the time nodes altogether.

swift heron
# fluid delta Exponential growth, that's why. It starts out very slow, it's only in the last d...

Ok now hold on I know I've talked about this before but now after knowing that they made it exponentially increase there is no way the devs didnt intend for the empty sim strat to exist
They made it increase exponentially which means they intended for the method to be "waiting till the last few days so the time crystal maxes out" AND they made it have such a huge cap
Like maybe they didnt intend for it to be this OP but they sure did intend for the empty sim run strat

amber canyon
#

They intended to give players who prefer longer runs a valid way of playing.

Don't think they planned the empty part though.

swift heron
amber canyon
#

They didn't want players to have to reboot every couple of days if they wanted to play efficiently.

Or have to reboot every 10 minutes. Or 5 minutes. Certainly they didn't mean a 2.5E16 or 2.5E21 difference, that's insanely huge.. or if they did mean it, they'll show it by NOT nerfing it, next update.

Oh yeah, thanks for the reminder. Got the 500 achieves for Mollusks and Amphib, but not 1000. So that's going to be out of reach for now. Wish I'd thought to pay attention to how close I got, when I cashed in my half-done empty sim run though.

I think chemistry could be fun though, but prob don't get your hopes up.

quasi ivy

yeah i wont

#

id be suprised if theyd add any new events soon anyway

fluid delta

My prediction is that they'll do Chemistry in the form of a "Periodic Table" branch of the game, as a new thing once Beyond is complete. The devs expressed considerable interest and mentioned when they were last here that... well, they didn't say anything quotable, but... yeah. So, it's a possibility!

amber canyon
#

Yeah, they were talking in beta chat the other day and said their focus is on ||primary (and Beyond)||.

quasi ivy

or like make the periodic system one generator so the event is unique cuz it only got 1 generator

who knows

It could go downwards from the currently existing amino acids

Into different types of molecules

#

Then atoms

#

Then protons, electrons, neutrons, etc

#

Then quarks and neutrinos

Then down to quantum level and the planck length

#

Or maybe we could have another permanent simulation

#

Like โ€œSize Simulatorโ€ or something

#

It could go up to the observable universe and down to the planck length
