Although I've completed the mini-tutorial, the "New Tips" window stays on screen. When accessing the list of "Tips and tricks", the only button available is "Replay tutorial", I can't mark it as read — see attachment. factorio-tips.png Replaying the tutorial doesn't mak...

From what I understand, the goal is to easily place a signal "3 cars after the previous one" (for instance when separating trains in a waiting lane). Currently, you have to hover over the previous signal, see where the third white box ends, and quickly put down a signal there. Then, hover ...

Seeing the new statistics windows for electricity, I was suprised to see the same figure in satisfaction (100%=37.8GW) and production (37.8GW = 95%?) with different bar widths — but obviously one is "37.8GW satisfied out of 37.8GW requested" while the other is "37.8GW used out of a ma...

Maybe reserve the pipes even in the basic recipe? I've seen this suggestion a couple of times, but I've got a hard time figuring out a good way to do it :/ The issue: a refinery is just like any other assembler / chem plant from the game point of view; they would have to find a way to lock those in...

The real question that should be addressed is "how do we teach new users about the multiple-output thing?", and to phrase the question that way points to the answers: 1) An interactive tutorial at some point which walks people through "refinery with one output consumed will lock up, ...

I noticed a couple of possible bugs with angel's refining (without bob's): - The recipes for level 3 floatation cell / leaching plant use level 1 floatation cell / leaching plant, instead of the level 2; whereas a lever 4 crusher/sorter would use a level 3 crusher/sorter, and a level 3 crusher/sorte...

Awesome!!

Thanks a lot, you're all amazing

I'm running Gentoo, with a 4.1.12 kernel, using X 1.17.4; and running the standalone (non-steam) version of the game. The keyboard is set through xorg.conf; but changing it with "setxkbmap fr" leads to the same results. A xev snapshot of a keypress gives: % xev -event keyboard Outer window...

Not on an azerty keyboard: the '(' is the normal key; 'SHIFT' is required to get a '5' — hence the layout I use.

In the "controls" tab, I have defined the key bindings for Quickbar 5 to "parenleft" and Quickbar 10 to "SHIFT + parenleft". Whenever I start the game, these key binding do not work; however, if I go to the "controls" settings tab, the bindings are properly di...
