All of my building/placeables are invisible. I am running the new textures if that matters. I was able to see a wooden box but that's one of the few things I assume (I didn't have any saves so I only had the burner drill and stone furnace to test.). Wondering if anyone else has this problem or a so...

Glad to hear, love your mods bob!

The productivity trigger only works for the refining recipes at the moment, I have to write up a function to add productivity for the petrochem recipes and dont think it really hurts there, because you have to deal with so much stuff aside from the main product you want. Did you end up writting it?...

Yeah, for the MK I machines the ratios are really bad IMO. I'm running MKIV without modules yet (I'm not at that stage of the game yet), but I'm mostly running 3 : 2 : 8 : 15 : 23. Of course you need to adapt for each input, since each one has a bit different ratio and different requirements. Late g...

I don't doubt that people will use it to draw penises or other 'creative art' on the map as well. Ah, loved to see that, Because it is obvious! I'd be glad as well if you allow us to "hide" the entities (belts, train paths, factories) from the map on the Eletric Network view, otherwise it...

Who in maximal map size not limite??
maximal ()..

If you are asking what's the maximum map size, it should be 1,000,000 (one million) tiles in each direction, which would result in a square of 2,000,000 x 2,000,000, or 4,000,000,000,000 (four quadrillion) tiles.

i already know lua 5.2 like the back of my hand but interms of factorio modding and the api i have no idea where to start, all the tutorials so far just jump into it without explaining step by step how to make a mod in a clear way. and yes i checked the wiki. where do i start?? Well, the BEST place...

It has been done for a few months now.

In those cases some mods could totally have their buttons removed from the main screen, which I personally think it's pretty damn ugly.

Are you still planning to add the configurations for mods as you previously said?

I like the addition of heat pipes, they open up a lot of possible uses. I hope that they can also be added to assembler types like fluid boxes. What I dont like is the productivity research for the miners, aside from the point that I personally dont like the concept of productivity modules, it real...

Well, i really liked the nuclear mechanics described in previous FFF. Now it looks quite simplistic and doesn't sound like that much of a fun. Heat pipes by themselves, without even meltdown or any kind of risk aren't satisfying at all :( Meltdowns makes anything NOT FUN at all. Huge complex jumps ...

The personal roboport was changed in 0.15 so it doesn't take items from the cursor anymore. Glad to hear that. That should solve most of the annoying part, since when you place a construction order, if your personal robots can't fulfill them, the robots form the network will do so, thus blocking fr...

Could you please correct the last sentence? I don't understand it :) And it's important (for me) to not mix up things: the player has a "hand", it's an own slot/stack - as the toolbelt slots. But not so present. So please avoid speaking of the toolbelt as "hand", cause the toolb...

I have stopped working on my mod and I would like to help a bit on this one. It's currently not working as expected with Bob's mods on my end, and I'd like to help you a bit on that end, since your idea was superior to mine.

Factorio currently does a poor job of explaining hotkeys and interactions.

Toolbelt is the hands of the player, it's the setup he has, he specifically sets filters so that he ALWAYS have items available. Every player lives fiddling with the toolbelt, setting it up to it's preferences. Personal roboports are an automated process, and thus should not interfere with your hand...

If you want only large ore trains to ignore best effort leave it true and add a decider with provided > Minimum Delivery Size = output everything between storage and input. If you use the same Minimum Delivery Size as on your ore unloading station you will have emulated best effort = false for this...

Now I understand what you meant by the "best effort". I'll check to see if disabling it gets me the desired behavior. Only thing is that the small cargo trains will have it's best effort disabled as well.

All I wanted is a PROPER minimum delivery size. I don't want my trains to deliver any LESS than 80k ore, since it's just not worth the trip.
