Thank you all very much! I got it working. My character is running very fast now. Great. :-) I opened the info.json in another text editor (for Tex files...) and that was showing some weird characters. So apparently, there were some strange characters which where invisible in the default OSX text ed...

I created a folder named "fastwalkingmod" and created the files:"control.lua", "data.lua" and "info.json". control.lua is empty data.lua contains the line "data.raw.player.player.running_speed = 1" info.json is a copy of the tutorial example from htt...

@Supercheese I tried your line of code in an new data.lua file in a seperate folder inside the mods folder, but then my factorio did not startup anymore. Do I really have to get into lua in order to get this to work? Because it seems that you can't simply put that line of code in a file and let it f...

Is it possible to increase the walk speed besides using other objects like stone floors/belts/trains ? So I want to have a fast walking speed from the beginning of the game, as I find it boring to walk around a lot when I am setting up a large base. Is there a command for this? Or a simple mod that ...

I miss some simple goals to aim for in the game to give me some sort of direction. As Factorio is coming to Steam, these kind of goals can be (I think easily?) be incorporated by introducing a lot of Steam achievements, for example: "Produce an x amount of item y within a time frame of z game d...

I have installed this peace mod at the newest version of Factorio. I think it is working, but I still have some questions. 1: Under some technologies I see in yellow: "base->peacemod", what does this mean/say? For example, look at the "Military 3" technology 2: You can still rese...

Thanks a lot Xterminator, that really gives me a better view on the content.

I read that there is already a "Factorio Beginners Guide" which costs around 4 dollars. If you don't know this guide, then see: http://www.factorioguide.com I am looking for your experiences with this guide. -Does it go through it's topics in much detail or is it shallow? -Do you advise it...

Thanks! It is clear now how it works.

Is such "alien ore mod" necessary when playing peaceful? Also, I do not really understand how peaceful mode works. If I attack a biter, will then ALL biters on the map become active and start attacking me at some point? Or is it only the biter that I attack, that will attack back? As I onl...

I played the demo and bought the game yesterday. However, I like the building aspect more than the fighting aspect. I did not notice before, but after seeing some youtube video's it seems that the fighting aspect is kind of important. I see there is a peaceful mode, but is it still interesting to pl...

Thanks for all your input. I bought the basic tier and will see later if I want to upgrade. Off course, if I really enjoy the game then the game is probably worth much more than 15 euro's. But I do not know that yet so that is why I asked all these questions. I know it is only 15 euro's, but I buy t...

Thank you for the replies. I think I will go for the basic tier then. If I like it I can upgrade later. Still I am a bit wondering how this upgrading thing will work with steam. Maybe each tier is a different version which means you have to pay the complete price again if I want the game with the sc...

Hi factorio players! I played the demo and I am considering to buy Factorio, because I really liked it. However, I am not sure yet which tier I should buy. I know you can upgrade later, but I prefer to do the buying process only once, so I wan't to pick the right want immediately. I am doubting betw...
