If you read the referenced FFF, it talks about how cliffs were not very useful in 1.1 because they had gaps that you had to defend, which implies 2.0 continuous cliffs would not have to be covered in turrets.


Thats how I interpreted it aswell, hence my dissapointement. For me at least they are ...

Thanks for the report. I don't consider this to be worth changing. Cliffs are not a guarantee of protection.





Cliffs are not a guarantee of protection.


So what about all that stuff about making cliffs more useful for defense in FFF-401?


That's fine, I can live with that, but ...

Biters can build a nest that grows to both sides of a cliff, circumventing their defensive function.
I did run into the same issue and forgot to take a screenshot, so I am sharing someone else's reddit post on the same issue. The picture is taken from there:

i think F5 directly toggles the grid - easy to toggle it on by accident and then being confused by it )

Usually I comment here to add my feedback and criticism - this time I just wanna say that both changes are great :) Looking forward to use them both!
Especially the Beacon now feels like it fits exactly with its purpose both in game as well as in the way it is displayed without visual clutter. Love ...

I got 3 things I want to leave here as feedback. Now while this is mostly negative feedback that doesn't mean you haven't been doing an amazing job with the game so far, but I feel a bit unhappy about the changes mentioned in the dev blog and for that reason want to share my thoughts. So let me ...

To add my $0.02...

Going by the pictures in order of their appearance in the blogpost:

1) I don't outright disagree with the idea that factorio might've been too dark but I don't feel that this is the right way.
While there is some instances in which the higher saturation looks "alright" there is ...

There's something funky about that seed; it results in various strange coasts at most water levels.

Couldn't duplicate the button issue on Linux though.


The other coast lines seem in part unusually curved as well but the top right is by far the weirdest one.

The button - is my guess - is ...

This was fixed for me, after I changed texture compression to low in the graphic settings.

Two issues for the price of one!
My device (in case relevant): 13" (1440x900) macbook air, A1466 with 8gb and i7,

1)
When clicking the preview button in the map generator it enlarges the play button beyond the screen size (see picture)

2)
weird formation in the water (top right) of a curved ...

As stated in the first post it happened only once on the very first start after a fresh install with 0.17.0
Worked after even in 0.17.0 and have not played in 0.17.2 yet

I encounter the same playing [0.17.2]:

Thanks!
Was in a rush to post and totally forgot

Same error here on my MacBook Air from late 2013 (intel HD 5000)
Appears some doodats (you spell them that way?) are not displayed properly.
The same happens with the belt animation at similar zoom levels flickering weirdly with sprites appearing to have similar black borders (not in screenshot ...

I hope this is the right place for my collection of thoughts (probably a lot and a bit mixed):


First of let me say there is a lot I liked about it, but allow me to focus on the things I want to give some constructive criticism about. I plan on playing a few more times through it but due to my job ...

I had a crash the first time I started the mission, when I was mining the "scrap metal”.
Only on the first time attempt - after it seemed to work:

The scenario level caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the scenario author.

I am not sure if this has been previously mentioned as I don't have the time at the moment to read through 6 Pages of comments.
However after reading the recent Friday Facts I wanted to point out a problem that I have run into a few times that hasn't been mentioned in the blog and potentially would ...

Mod completely incompatible with .9 :(

See my bug report about [15.7] Crash after disabling listed mods on: "InModsLoadErrorGui::process"

It works for me (in 15.9) - I just had to edit a few other mods and add icon_size = 32,
to the ones where the icons caused errors.

Like so:

Change the graphic settings to: [Graphics quality: normal] [Video memory usage: medium].

I don't think it should be necessary to lower the settings. I was running big factories in 0.15 without issues before.
This was the first and last time (so far) that this has happened and it was when I was at ...
