In the third picture it's again an instantly placed blueprint, so the expected situation is same as in the first picture. But oddly, the first turbines are working at full power. My guess is the first row of turbines wasn't destructed or at least placed earlier than the other turbines. Maybe you us...

Even the simplest rules like (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) do not hold for floating point math. Thus, summing the electricity consumption of all machines and subtracting that from the larger network will likely have a different result than accounting for each machine individually. True for unlimited pr...

I'm sorry if I kind of interrupt the mathematical discussion, but there is something very basic I don't understand. I read about direction and build order. For a long time, I assumed "direction" means the current direction and momentum of a fluid; from left to right or from right to left ...

fluid in pipes (in & out) - is it tricky? No! I hope... electricity (behaves as a single entity) These are floating point math, which has limited precision as opposed to "real" math. Any rounding error introduced due to that might change something that looks like a repeating cycle int...

@Nidan minimum and minimum_resource_amount is the same.

I linked both since the name is different in data and control stage. The / wasn't meant as division.

Could someone with a wiki account expand https://wiki.factorio.com/Prototype/ResourceEntity with some explanation how the individual properties tie together? Likewise, a dev add a link to that text to the corresponding properties of LuaEntity? Text suggestion that probably can be improved on: Infini...

Have you considered the idea that the 20% aren't hardcoded, but are also affected by the minimum specified in the prototype? I.e. minimum_yield = prototype_minimum * max(100%, initial_yield) I already looked but didn't find such field, the wiki doesn't, and the source code neither. I search for dif...

This is not the case according to my observation of oil behavior and behavior of infinite ore of Infinite Resources - Normal Yields with setting start at 100% (so initial amount = 100) and min to 5%, the resource doesn't stop at 20% but at 5%. So I don't understand the rule "minimum = max(mini...

https://wiki.factorio.com/Transport_belts/Physics#Belt_positions_and_lengths An item needs 256/24 = 10 2/3 ticks to traverse a blue belt. If you measure three consecutive straight belts you should see an item requiring 11 ticks on two of them and 10 on the third. In your setup the items are 11 * 24...

because we cannot predict where the robot will recharge (the chance, that the plan works as predicted is very low). Why would you say it's low? Whatever roboports exist when the bot departs a roboport are the roboports that are most likely to exist 30 seconds later when the bot needs to recharge. ....

Do you have a source for this? I'd say they simply home in on the destination, calculated each tick, and once reaching low charge divert to a roboport (~ step 3 & 4). I think you may be right actually. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to deal with moving targets nor, as you mention, would enemie...

Presently the game: 1. Checks if bot can reach destination. Upon realizing that it can't: 2. Calculate the point at which it would reach 20% charge, and set that point as the destination. Do you have a source for this? I'd say they simply home in on the destination, calculated each tick, and once r...

Starting again with one miner and a single prod 3 module, that miner has an effective speed of (1 + 10%) * (1 - 15%) = 0,935. To compensate we need to reach an effective speed of 1,1 (i.e. base mining speed plus prod bonus), thus add 0,165 effective speed, which is 0,165 / 0,935 ~ 0,1764 extra mine...

Running the vanilla cases through a calculator gets us: Upgrading the number of prod 3 from 0 to 1: 17,64% extra miners, 7h 52min to repay Just to make sure i understand the result properly, If i were to place a prod3 module 1 in my mining drills, i would need to add 17.64% extra miners compared to...

In my mind I could wire it up so that it stored the request until it was fulfilled then just wipe clean once the storage box was no longer requesting but I'm missing how to just wipe the memory cell and not introduce more values in doing so. ... the problem becomes a way to trigger this during only...

Since this version, the keyboard shortcut to move items from inventory to trash slots is not working. Both ctrl+click and shift+click are not working.

Instead of posting here, the recommended place is the bug reports forum. And, as it happens, there's already a thread regarding that issue.
