but then I was looking at the wikipedia page to try and see if there was a chance i could make one in game, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_Twister. and I could see the n=624 in the C code, but then for other values like "a" "b" "c" and Umask and Lmask, the values are in hexadecimal, and ...

Like PennyJim, I'd list the value that takes priority first. In addition, I'd avoid "and" and "or", lest someone attempts to evaluate the expression. How about "Value of `default_show_value` if set, `true` otherwise"?

Just to make sure: Which kind of AI? Generative AI which became a big topic in the recent years (example keywords: ChatGPT, LLM), or decades old game AI (for controlling NPCs, enemies, ...)?

Both are, of course, not intelligent but apply some algorithms to their input data. Regarding game AI, I'd ...

Not a Bug, as per the discussion following this post .

Outputting Anything when the condition is not using Each will output a single signal out of the input signals. In particular, Anything will pick the first input signal in some game defined order that roughly resembles the order the items appear ...

Tertius' setup gives the pairwise minima min(Each[red], Each[green]), the selector combinator min(all input signals). Calling both operations minimum is perfectly fine. You just need to be precise and indicate which of them is meant, if there's risk of confusion.

The question is, what is it supposed to do? Validating something without a goal to validate against is … difficult.

Where "few hours" is time spent trying, not the amount of time the program is ...

Interesting work.

Re 2.0 combinators: The changes made in 2.0 really shine when you're frequently working with Each. Stuff that's rather cumbersome in 1.x reduces to a single combinator in 2.0. With the goal of sticking close to x86, these improvements become mostly meaningless. The selector ...

raiguard is planning to improve this for 2.1, see e.g. 128174 and 126571.

2)Cheating on achievement can be done the same way, but it's even easier, you can just be a bunch of spectators while other people do all the hard work or edit your filesave later on.


With a little bit of modding, you can also trivialize the steam/unmodded achievements. Get or make yourself a ...

Space age changes happen in the space-age mod:

data/space-age/base-data-updates.lua

Simplifying a bit, I read the instructions as:
$1 := max(in_r1, in_r2)
out_1 := signal in_g1 value $1 if $1 < in_r3 else signal R value in_r3


I would like to have a single (decider) combinator

Impossible. While a decider combinator can evaluate arbitrary logic, it'll either produce all it's ...

I'm not saying that the arithmetic combinator is the mapping; it is not. As consequence, your attempt at interpretation went off the rails. I don't even know how that mapping is supposed to look like (mathematically), the description is quite vague.

For example map signals '1', '2' and '3 ...

Say we have 3 Signals on one wire channel. With some conditions met I'd like to map them to a yet unspecified but dynamic 4th signal type that's given on the other wire channel. For example map ...

Wube could add a mapping function to the selector combinator that filter's a signal type on red(green) channel that is given by input on the other channel. That'd be great. ...

In case you still need a solution for this, here's a hint: With 2.0 you can do this with a single decider combinator ...

1. Can I move my game save to a self-hosted server?

Yes

2. Will the server pause the game when no one is logged in?

There's a setting for that

3. How saves are being handled on a server instance, can I still manually save?

The same as your single player world: Autosaves at regular ...

My combinators:
Hub: read speed (in km/s) -> V
Distance: D + V -> D (loops back to it's own entry, so D is increased)
Distance (in km): D / 60 (because speed is read every tick but unit is km/s)

My problem:
When implementing this, I noticed, that my calculated travel distance is way lower ...

I like to split cheats into two groups:

These will be detected (in multiplayer) by factorios deterministic nature, as several posters above already mentioned. Note that the server is ...

There's no research going on now, but that doesn't say anything about 7 minutes ago. On the production side there's also a matching bump for the same time, which I suspect is science. Hard to see due to the scale of the production graph.
I'd suspect there was a research started which either ...

Yes, the stack size will lag one tick behind. Unless the output signal changes, which will result in one tick without stack size signal. When controlling inserters and having somewhat stable inputs this probably isn't an issue since the combinators are usually done updating before the inserter is ...
