Not really : they spend all their time going back and forth between the requester chest and the surrouding roboports to recharge. Thus, they don't stop moving, and are not particularly easy to pick-up.

Sorry for the necro, but this is still true with [0.11.15]. I have the problem when I limit a requester chest's capacity with the red cross to lower than what requested items would need. Here is a screenshot, and the revelant savegame. I have surrounded the requester chest. Factorio requester should...

Do you have many open deconstruction tasks? See this: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=5653 and https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=8353 - I don't have a shitload of unreachable entities marked for deconstruction out of logistic network's reach :ugee...

Hi, I have searched in all bug reports speaking of deconstruction bugs, and couldn't find the same, even if there are some similar that have been resolved already. I have ordered the deconstruction of a line of belts, and some of them do not get deconstructed, whereas : - I have construction bots id...

Water only in starting area option on map creation.
Forests removed before even you start to play

Else, poison caps or construction bots if I have a roboport nearby.

You, sir, win the internets tonight
Thanks a LOT for the tip ^^

Hi, I often see threads asking for a keybound manual inventory sorting, but I have another suggestion, slightly different (that's why I don't just +1 one of the numerous threads about inventory sorting). I would like, when I have more than one stack in my toolbelt, that the same item stacks I have i...

At the topic starter, the game crashes. Maybe he can test the new version, and the new debuggin functionality? Yeah, sure, there you are : 0880.059473 Info Logger.cpp:152: 2015-02-05 20:07:27; Factorio 0.11.15 (Build 13276, win64) 0880.059514 Info Logger.cpp:156: Operating system: Windows 7 Service...

The roboport is the natural storage for logistic robots that have nothing to do at a particular moment. For construction and logistic robots to get to work, you need : - either a ghost building (the one you get with shift-click or with a blueprint) AND what's needed to build it in your logistic netw...

You sir, are just the millionth person to emit such suggestion \o/ You are the winner of our big lottery, and you may just have won a factory. please call 555-123456 (50 alien artifacts per minute) for more details :mrgreen: (forums, and before them bulletin boards have been including search feature...

It does indeed prevent the crash. Just disabled it for good . Thanks for the help.
However, I'm not sure it's intended that bitmap caching is in fact bitmap crashing

Just tried with 1.7, exactly the same behaviour. Of course, I installed the x64 version of the Visual C++ 2012 redistribuable :mrgreen:. I'm downloading the x86 version, and I'll tell you what as soon as it's installed. [Edit] That was it : Visual C++ 2012 x86 redist seems to be a prerequisite. Than...

When I use the 0.11.15 experimental, I now get this error message when I redim twice my Factorio window : Capture.JPG These are my Graphical settings : Factorio Graph Settings.JPG And the error log I get : 7193.553140 Info Logger.cpp:152: 2015-02-03 21:19:38; Factorio 0.11.15 (Build 13246, win64) 71...

Someone on reddit had the same problem, and he managed to fix it by doing a clean install of visual c++ 2012. Could you let me know if that works for you?

Tried it, but doesn't change anything unfortutnately. Do you have another idea ?

Yeah totally, that way you can see where what you thought to be a single power network is split after a major redesign of your base.

Added the method I used to measure the day/night cycle in my initial post. My guess is that the method used to time what's written in the wiki had a flaw : if your solar panels produce more than your factory needs, you don't start to see the lowering of power produced by solar before you underproduc...

Hi, I have a consistent crash I have been able to reproduce 100% so far now that I know how to trigger it. Here's the context : When I launch Factorio, it always starts with a small 1300x762 resolution (since ever). I opened a thread about that, but the solutions I was given were not satisfacting me...
