... So I'd have more serious questions if it wasn't an intended theme of the mechanic.

If you do it on furnaces/components it's 2% of your stuff and you can use any technique you'd use to speed up mining production. Coming up with concrete is hard, but coming up with an iron ore at uncommon can be done.

Bingo! Thanks. I created a storage chest and they all put their concrete in it.

Any idea why these robots won't move?
They're full of concrete, which is on order to a ship. Other bots collect concrete from the provider chest and deliver it fine, but these 7 just sit there for ever. They've been there for ages so not charging.

Bump. Maybe developers will see it and consider adding it to 2.1

... find, I didn't realize this.
So figured the blueprint is the root cause. When I print it down it is already missing at that corner (even though concrete and ice platforms are not part of the blueprint). However if the car is removed from the blueprint it's working just fine. This is probably ...

The real question is: how did the ghost end up on top of a "place ice platform" tile ghost and not a "place ice platform, and then concrete" ghost. When I shift-click place a new cryo plant there it correctly puts ice platform + concrete and when both are built, the cryo plant is then ...

It's very difficult if you try to not void anything, you end up with so much concrete at times, or so few holmium you will need to void a lot of things. You would make the game a whole lot harder for yourself if you try to find a ...

When I said "mixed cargo" I mean that the train has everything that came out of the recycler on fulgora: Steel, gears, stone, concrete, ice, etc... in a single train.

Wish you good luck and let the Factory grow.


This method worked for me. I just saved my 100+ hour world from being achievement locked. I got a little too overzealous in trying out a concrete cleaner script and I didn't realize the consequences of my actions. Thanks for the help guys!!

Move one of the concrete lanes 1 tile to the outside or to the inside. It's probably not equidistant to the center but instead 1 tile mismatched.

... what.

As you can see in these images. When placed vertically, the blueprint aligns perfectly with the given grid. Horizontally - nope (see the concrete part of the blueprint). (The refeined hazard concrete builds exact squares 100 x 100 tiles)

All tests can be replicated in Vanilla 2.0.75 with the attached save file.

Simple building fails on water tiles, succeeds on empty concrete, and fails on a colliding entity (respectively), as expected:

Maybe you could show us pictures of what you're using right now? Then we might be able to suggest concrete improvements.

hello,

i did some more test, and it comes that Layers is a tricky thing.

when they comes to be to near to each other or be the same the game mixes them.

agree with the not a bug fact.

Regards.

I looked into this and any changes I made to increase it broke rotation flipping/mirroring of hazard concrete in blueprints.
