Why does this look so much less messy than what I come up with?

Excited to try it later today!

I can't quite offer a 1.1-friendly GreyGoo, but I can offer JOSEF, my own self-expanding factory. It doesn't yet deal with water, cliffs or biters (but a future version will attempt to do all that) but other than that it's running really nicely. It managed to grow to a 29x29 grid of 2x2 chunk cells ...

Hi, I found an issue with BP books: I have BP books that get taken out of trains into chests, looped around and put back into trains. I wanted to delete and replace one of them and had some unfortunate timing: The book was in chest A when I opened it (and maybe clicked the "delete" button,...

Woops, I forgot about forum etiquette, sorry about that. Will remember to do a proper search next time! I don't see a way to delete the post, but feel free to close or delete it if possible. (Still, it seems a little unusual for factorio that this has been around for 3 years, seems to be considered ...

Hi there, This is not really a full blown bug but I noticed some odd inserter behavior yesterday: When you build an inserter facing a curved rail (with enough room left to build a target chest) it will lock into "train feeding mode" and not notice when a chest is built in front of it. When...

Yes, this is related to being able to build in chunks that were not yet even generated, so to solve this and other possible problems, the blueprint building will be limited to charted area of the map (which is also guaranteed to be fully generated). This adds some limit again, but much much less re...

Hi there, The new feature of placing blueprints in fog of war is great, however it seems like the shift-placing features don't work perfectly yet. When you place a blueprint on further-away chunks, trees don't get marked for deconstruction but the blueprint still gets placed, leading to robots getti...

TL;DR It would be useful to enable or disable single logistic requests or rows of them. What? When constructing large builds (especially outposts or other stuff outside roboport range) I always have to disable my logistic requests, empty my inventory and pick up a lot of stuff manually. Or alternat...

Please: for such type of suggestions one post per suggestion. Why? It can’t be discussed. It cannot be ordered. For example the offshore pump idea is already suggested: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=55568 Pressing "Q" auto-selects Offshore Pump if cursor over water B...

Thanks for the report. It's the jetpack mod doing it. Thanks for the quick reply. I wouldn't have thought that, but now that you say it I've noticed it behave a bit weirdly with bots before. Bots stand still as if you disappeared for a few ticks when you start or stop flying. Still, if it's not too...

Post a link to a vanilla save that shows that behaviour please. Here you are . It's not vanilla (i.e. I didn't run around deleting all my LTN stops :) ) but it should load without any problems I'm fairly sure that the problem is not mod related (as I don't have any mods related to bots and no fring...

Edit: Untangled post. TL;DR When requests are disabled, the mouseover should say that instead of "N/A" What ? The number one question on reddit is "why are my logistic bots not working"? I think everyone has been there. You die or disable requests manually and then you wonder why...

So after almost 2000 hours the unthinkable happened and I encountered an actual little bug. I equipped my new armor with roboport mk2 and suddenly logistic bots started coming in. They were bringing items that I wasn't requesting and very oddly went into my inventory afterwards. Some just came to re...

Videos where you are not adressed as a follower that need to like and suscribe are refreshing :). Plus the relaxing music, quick show of key elements, made the video pleasant to watch. The base itself is impressive the overall impression of fullfilness from the decoration and octogonal shape make i...

I used to build the "fan" thing but as a German I never really felt great about it for certain reasons
I'm an H guy now. I find it more aesthetic and it tiles better.

I built a 1k SPM Megabase using Factorissimo and LTN (and quite a few Q...
