Re: Friday Facts #342 - The new old tutorial

while i try to keep up with the FFF posts, i somehow completely missed that the campaign was cancelled, and that the new player experience was going to be tossed. this is somewhat disheartening, because I was more or less waiting on that kind of content to come into focus for my next attempt at play...

Re: Friday Facts #254 - No research queue for you

I am not an "experienced player" by the standards of many Factorio players. I've played the game off and on for somewhere around 100, 150 hours tops (not sure, I only have steam number, not sure how much I played pre-steam) since ... something like 0.10 or 0.11. I've never gotten very far ...

Re: Friday Facts #198 - Rail segment visualisation

So, I seem to be missing something, since I can't understand what the rail visualization is showing. What rail tutorial is being discussed in the FFF? I just went and updated factorio from stable to experimental to try to find it, and I can't seem to do so. I've never understood rails in factorio, s...

Re: What inspired you to buy Factorio?

NESTT . Also, in the same post as I found out about NESTT, I discovered the future existence of spidertron . When I saw those, I finally went, "Yessss, this will be miiiiine." Then I discovered the full game is a LOT more fun than the demo campaign implied. I, also, spent a lot of time tr...

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] NESTT: Build your base inside a train

[*]Can't clear trees unless leaving the locomotive - which is suicidal with the enormous number of creepers Yes this will need major reworking, always staying in the train is intended.

Re: [MOD 0.12.12+] Research queue 1.2.3

Hello, I wanted to let you know I've found this mod absolutely invaluable for planning and time management. However, I've run into a weird problem now that I've got it set not to pause on research completion: I hear the 'research finished' sound and often forget what exactly was most recently queued...
