Do you have any ideas/knowledge if this can be done with less combinators? Thanks! There's probably a better way, but a simple approach is to use decider combinators to add one to some of output signals, according to the remainder: 0eNrNV1/vmjAU/S432dPqbxZB/jzsU+xtMQThqk2gJaWYGcN3Xwu/OUWqQJbpi0nBnp...

See 98218, resolved for the next release.

On the other hand, a thread that is "stalled" waiting for data from storage (including paging activity) is different: in this case, the OS gets involved and will suspend the thread, marking it unable to be scheduled again until after the data are available. Suspended threads do not contri...

I'm not sure if memory latency would show itself in %CPU ussage (on one hand, if CPU instruction execution is stalled by need to wair on memory, it should bee seen as %CPU usage, on the other hand, modern CPUs are so complex I can't be sure here. CPU usage is calculated by the OS, eg for a given co...

I have vanilla infinity chest. With loader, it provides belt of stuff. Can it gather it from the belt? How? Rotating (default key: R) after placing will switch between load/unload. The infinity chest should have "Infinity filters" empty and "Remove unfiltered items" set to creat...

I wonder why we never got an *OFFICIAL* answer.

An official answer belongs in the wiki, which does have a fair bit of information.

I think a complete answer would be very complex, and mostly not needed. But there's the Wiki Talk forum if you think there's something important missing.

I remember that some months ago I could simple connect lots of lamps in a Circuit Connection with differents color and all work fine, now, if i try to do the same, i got that problem that all my colors turn in the same color ... https://youtu.be/fgIqluzfxac The video shows the lamps as "Glowin...

Save dialog in factorio is both, Save and Save as. I wonder if that is where the problem stems from... And there's a difference between a document state and a game state: - You open a document in office and do nothing. No matter how long you wait, there's no change - You open a game and it changes ...

I've always worked on the basis that each boiler-to-boiler or turbine-to-turbine connection is equivalent for flow purposes to one unit of pipe. True for one or two boilers, but eg three boilers gives 4.5k/s while two pipes gives 3k/s (as the Wiki says) in my testing, so one connection = one pipe i...

I've just started playing Factorio last week and i've been looking at multiple guides about trains in Factorio (including kathrine of sky on YouTube). But i can't get it to work. After multiple hours i got my oil train to work, but i can't seem to get my stone train to work. I could probably just a...

Impressive necro.

Not using the mouse to steer, but a practical solution to the original problem is VehicleSnap.

Are people trying the save game and NOT seeing the bahaviour (which is what I think you said in your first reply)? Or is everybody seeing the same behaviour that I have reported, and it's 'as expected'? The behaviour I see (after loading your save) is as I would expect. With rail (not chain) signal...

I should add that in the save game, the signals at the top of the stacker are regular signals. Again, this was an unsuccessful attempt to fix this. The problem still occurs if they are chain signals (as the ought to be). I'm seeing expected behaviour with rail signals in the stacker, as in the save...

I should add that in the save game, the signals at the top of the stacker are regular signals. Again, this was an unsuccessful attempt to fix this. The problem still occurs if they are chain signals (as the ought to be). You said the issue could be reproduced. Can you reproduce it starting from the...

Thanks I looked at that but it still doesn't make any sense to me. I'll just keep pushing buttons like a monkey until something happens or blows up, lol I think all the information to understand how the circuit network works is in the wiki, but it is spread over a number of pages and there are many...

There is no need for a pulse generator in this case. The basic clock (a constant combinator and a decider combinator) described in the wiki is sufficient, with the inserter enabled when the decider combinator output signal is zero. Use one colour of wire to connect the constant combinator, decider c...

Never mentioned 8 beacon layouts? Indeed. For 3x3 buildings such as assembling machines and electric furnaces, the 8 beacon layout (row of beacons, row of buildings, row of beacons, ...) is extremely common. Compared to a 12 beacon layout (surrounding each building with beacons), it is much cheaper...

It will recover without intervention, but consider: you've got most of your first 40 U-235 and set up a few enrichment centrifuges to build up some U-235 (or to use it to make uranium fuel cells or whatever), and leave it to it while you do something else. When you finally get round to checking on i...

But when say i tear down a wall bots from every where takes the wall for example and store it every where in storage boxes. And i think that normal bots "non personal" doesn't take anything from storage boxes. Construction robots from a roboport will "deliver" items only to stor...

And if you have occasional U-235 on the near belt That is invalid usage. The upper ("near") lane must be empty at all times as stated in the original post. I've edited the post to be more explicit about that. I didn't specify but I meant the right (far) lane of the near belt. Assuming sta...
