Probably convenient for the devs if you inlcude a copy of the 2.1.12 save as well.

save-file for any gameplay or save dependent issue! Creating a small save file that illustrates the issue ...

I spent a while this weekend trying to figure out how to make a pretty obvious design work.

Let's start with the constraints I put on myself:

1) Every platform only follows one route ever.
2) Warehouse platforms and radars are allowed and encouraged.

Next, let's look at a straightforward ...

Can you place robots in a chest via spider? (both as an intermediate work around and as a triage of the issue)

Super cool. being able to trigger off of things like machine craft finished opens a lot of possibilities for modding. Thanks for making this mod and pointing out these new abilities.

How expensive are on tick polls in practice? I've always assumed they're actually quite cheap.

I really enjoy it so far, now feeling like I'm incentivized to build a fleet of specialized ships instead of every ship really is just a cargo hauler with different specs. IMO, it's better gameplay, especially considering the cleverness you need to do to build buffering depots with radars + circuits.

Pretty sure this is working as intended, but you could set up some circuitry wizardry to charge and discharge accumulators if you really wanted to ensure maximum neighbor bonus.

If you started without space age, that's almost certainly the reason this isn't available. Short of going in and editing the save file or cheating in the achievement somehow, this save isn't going to make it available to you.

i dont mind expansion size. i DO mind VERY much that expansions now apparently can happen in areas biters should not be able reach. i frequently have new expansions behind my turret line and this just sucks.

edit: well, i said i did not mind the size. i frequently see what i could only describe ...

FWIW, it looks like the author of the mod in question fixed the mod 9 hours ago to correctly override the recipe icon as well: https://github.com/Alkumist/cb-science- ... -fixes.lua

Edit: Oh, that's you

Patient : Doctor, it hurts when I do this.
Doctor : Don't do that then.

What is the problem with this behavior? (does something break) Allowing a user to do something that will never get completed happens all over the game. I can set recipes for things I don't have ingredients for, set conditions ...

FWIW, you can ship a cargo landing pad (1 rocket) and drop that as your first drop, then pick it up and build it to allow all future drops to go where you are :)

Or you can ship cargo landing pad, take 40 minutes to scout Fulgora without getting it and than waste 20+ minutes to run back to 0,0 ...

I actually needed to do this a month or two ago and I figured out that an arithmetic combinator with "each" input adding 0 and outputting a specific non-quality signal would sum all qualities together. I am still at a loss for why this works TBH but I have found it useful:

...

I personally think ...

--load-game is not even a valid option for headless. --until-tick is a valid option, but does nothing.

Did you try passing --start-server (or --create) with the name of a save file? The --load-game might just be an outdated error message that was overlooked.
Most recent command which works: ./headless_2_1_9/bin/x64/factorio --mod-directory mods_2_1_9/ --start-server map_2_0_77 --server-settings ...

What did you do?
1. Ran headless with --until-tick :

Command: ./headless_2_1_9/bin/x64/factorio --mod-directory mods_2_0_77/ --until-tick 100

Output: 0.000 Error UntilTick.cpp:17: --until-tick requires --load-game

TL;DR
A mode for the selector combinator that flattens quality.

What?
Add a selector combinator mode called Quality Overwrite or similar which:

Has a target quality selector, [Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary], with Common selected by default.

Converts all input X[Any] to X[Target ...

Would be super cool for allowing more compact clever circuited builds :)

If the problem is that once the circuit signal changes, there isn't a clean game record of the stations original name, I'd happily take a set first/last icon option as well. It'd constrain engineers in how they name their ...

Thanks for the report. Issue is now fixed for 2.1.9.

This was quite tough issue because it involves floating point math errors that were accumulating differently based on inserter orientation, so i had to change inserters logic to use fixed point orientations to make their behavior symmetric in ...
