It's modern music. Old skool music didn't do it that way.

Also that it more clearly indicates when the operation is finished.

Re: Add a progress bar for "Check for updates" under mods

Heck, taie it one step further, and also add a button to automate the entire process: "Click here to check for mods. If any are found, your program will automatically update and then re-start."

I can then click that button, and go AFK, come back 5 minutes later, ready to play.

Add a progress bar for "Check for updates" under mods

As it is now, I click the button, and then Factorio freezes. For a number of seconds. An unknown number of seconds. Might be 3. Might be 30. Or 50. I get no information about the progress of this process. When it's finished, I get no formal notification whatsoever. I have to manually notice that the...

Re: [MOD 0.13] HandyHands - Autocrafting - v1.2.2 ammo & pause

What I'd really like is a variant of this mod, that isn't based on the Tool Belt, but instead auto-crafts certain Intermediate items whenever they fall below a certain threshold value. Say, 100 Electric Circuits, 100 Pipe, 200 Gear Wheel, and nothing else. Especially for the early game. Even in the ...

Re: How do I do mod portal password reste?

From what I understand, it uses single signon with the website login system, so you reset your password through there (here: https://www.factorio.com/request-password-reset). It worked, thanks! Using just that one link, I was able to my account, which is the same both for these Forums (where the sy...

Yes. This mod actually feels balanced to use. You have to research improvements step by step, and each improvement makes the Radars consume more power.

Re: [MOD 0.15] Bluebuild rewritten

Great mod. I just used it for the first time today and I'm hooked. Is there a way to get a list of ghosts missing items, like with bots? It's hard sometimes to know which items I'm missing in my inventory when plopping down big (or several small) blueprints. Some kind of "missing item" al...

Re: [MOD 0.15.x] Agent Orange

I've just verified that the problem is Agent Orange, rather than a conflict between it and some other mod, or a random glitch from another mod that just happend to coincide, twice, with me throwing a capsule. I disabled all mods, except Agent Orange, your Flares mod, and a personal mod I've made tha...

Re: [MOD 0.15.x] Agent Orange

After updating to 0.15.14, I get a crash whenever I throw an Agent Orange. Happened to me twice, within minutes. First time I threw a few capsules, so I thought maybe the crash was due to something happening when the Agent Orange effect ends, but 2nd time around, the crash happened much sooner, afte...

How do I do mod portal password reste?

I can't seem to find where to do a Mod Portal password reset/request.

My forum login works fine, and I use Steam to update the game, it's just my Mod Portal login that is giving me trouble.

How? Why?

Re: [0.15 Reactor Interface

Very nice! I'm quite surprised this was not a vanilla feature to begin with! Me too. I just took for absolute granted that once I progressed to the Fission Era of Tech, I'd be able to wire up my Reactors. However, the OP talks about the potential for using wires to shut down or pause fission, and I...

Re: Friday Facts #191 - Gui improvements

When I craft a nuclear reactor (or a anything that I build not so often ), having it auto placed in the tool bar is very convenient. I don't have to open the full inventory to quickly place it. Also, I don't want to waste a slot in the bar by locking it to such a rare building. Someone suggested an...

Re: Friday Facts #191 - Gui improvements

These are all really fantastic. As for F1 etc on laptops, people can rebind if desired. Sure, but more and more people play on laptops these days, and Factorio's default keybindings should be such that the game is immediately playable. Notice for instance how all the important keys are close to the...

I'm all in favour of this proposed change. But. 1. I think there should be 2x12 hotkeys, instead of only 2x10. 1b. Currently, the toolbar slots are accessed via the keys 1 - 5 and Shift 1 - 5 , but I've always re-arranged these to be accessed via 1 - 0 . The 2 extra slots would be accessed via the k...
