Moved to Outdated/Not implemented. You want something like this: https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-128 (scroll down to "Loader") It acts like an inserter (in regard to where it takes stuff from and where it puts it), but is able to transport items as fast as transport belts can handl...

I tested it and it did not crash, but used up to 10.1 GB of RAM on that map. It probably crashes if you have less, but that's not (directly) Factorio's fault. It's not related to mods either - all my analysis was done on vanilla. The performance was very, very low while handling the 1024-belt-balanc...

This is a config file from 0.14 and you're trying to load it in 0.15. From the 0.15.0 changelog: Configuration Configuration has been reset. Since 0.15 Factorio checks if the first line is ; version=2 If it's not, then the config is invalid and has to be regenerated. You can workaround this by addin...

Well as far as I have seen the core dev team and all moderators are European (I don't know about Loewchen, but the name sounds German). So the largest time difference would be 2 hours I think. But there are remote devs from the US too, this is where the real time difference knocks in. All moderator...

The log is from your friend, he is hosting (UPC Switzerland) and you are joining (Swisscom). You mentioned that there are no issues if he is hosting and others join (as in the log file), but there are issues if he joins the Nitrado server. That log from your friend when playing on the server might b...

Can you post your log? The log file might also help us, it details your system configuration, Factorio graphics settings and mods used. The log file is still missing. Do you also have these issues when playing purely vanilla without any mods? EDIT: Is the 4K screen the only monitor you have plugged...

Do you play with high resolution graphics enabled? I think Factorio sets that as default if you have >= 2GB VRAM and >= 8GB RAM, I'm not sure though if that also applies if you play with mods. Try setting the sprite resolution to normal if it isn't already. If it's a VRAM issue then changing the vid...

I can't speak for the staff (Factorio/Wube employees) or other moderators, but for me personally: I started moderating the forums 2 years ago because at that time there were a lot of bots/spammers around. It also helped that I was in-between jobs at that time and had a lot of free time and frequentl...

I see you already updated the thread (https://forums.factorio.com/41199), this is the recommended procedure. Since you are the thread starter you can edit the contents of the first post and the thread title itself. You can also add a new post to that thread mentioning that you updated it and highlig...

Since we are a german group i'll write mire details in German than in English and hope to be in compliance with the rules anyhow. The "English only" rule doesn't apply to the Multiplayer subforum - you can write in another language as much as you want :) Die "Nur Englisch"-Regel...

I'm moving this to duplicates since a similar bug report is already assigned: [Twinsen] [for 0.16] [0.15.27] weapon slot covers object info In the meantime you can use the Minimap autohide or Picker Extended mods to hide the minimap when hovering over a chest/combinator, giving you more space to see...

Only functionality like this in the game at the moment is with resouces and mining drills what about upgrading entities like assembly machines? I can place mk2 on mk1, but obv I cannot place mk2 on a ...furnace lets say... how the game knows what i'm trying to build on? is there a method written fo...

Moved from Modding interface requests to Modding help. crude-oil has this in the resources.lua: category = "basic-fluid", The other resources don't have such a line, so I assume the default value is basic-solid , since the vanilla game only has basic-solid and basic-fluid as resource cate...

The current version is 0.15.34, in the Factorio Betas dropdown choose NONE or 0.15.x to update to it. If you never entered any beta you should already be at 0.15.34.

Please post your Log file (factorio-current.log), it should be in your home folder in the ~/.factorio directory.

Please post your complete Log file (factorio-current.log), because it includes your PC specs and Factorio startup parameters.

Also try restarting your PC.

For cycling radars I would do the following: factorio-radar-cycle.png Combinators (all arithmetic unless otherwise stated): Combinator 1: A + 1 = A (timer that counts ticks, output goes to input) Constant Combinator (C): P = 1800 (30 seconds), R = 10 (number of radars) Combinator 2: P / R = D (numbe...
