I used to play mindustry and I played zones I didn’t know I couldn’t win because I haven’t developed the right weapon to take on the Master enemy.
I have found my self playing many hours to be annihilated at the end by an enemy I didn’t have the means to kill. there is no deterrence mechanism to indicate that such a zone is unwinnable and lets me waste hours for nothing.
how Am I supposed to know which zones to chose to win and unlock new types of drills for example and new weapons ? should I do more research before playing ?
Focus on named sectors atleast till overgrowth. Then attack low threat sectors and secure them.
Bonus: spam turrets in a sector that is under attack then leave. You don’t even need to supply ammo or power once you leave.
