For the use of satellites in orbit that generate power, it would not matter whether the solar panels are on Aquilo or in orbit, you are still dealing with the long distance from the star.

Let's assume that you double the power output and ignore the night time downtime. It is still not a lot of ...

The satellite is not used in Space Age. It is replaced with the cargo pods shuttling items back and forth to the space platforms. I am proposing that it be repurposed to allow for temporary satellite coverage of the map.

I admit that we have roboports with a little bit of visibility and spidertrons ...

I have outfitted tanks with equipment and loaded the machine gun with piercing ammo. I did not have shells or flamethrower ammo. I drove off to explore, but forgot to change the selected weapon, because it defaults to the first slot, even though it is empty. When I got into trouble by getting too ...

We were discussing this during a recent stream.

We just want to prevent starving the snake or loop of burner miners, while pulling out some surplus fuel for other uses.

I was reading the wiki, trying to learn more about fusion power for Space Age. I looked at the dimensions for the fusion generator. It is listed as 4x6, but the image of the fusion generator is on the checkerboard surface and it is clearly 3x5. I opened my cheated map to place a fusion generator ...

A clarifying question. When you mention 'gridded', do you see 32-tile wide and tall chunks with a slightly heavier weight to those lines? If so, then you probably have a debug feature turn on by accident.

To remove the grid:
Press F4
Look through the list for an attribute named (something like ...

I have not read every reply that was posted, but I heard on JDPlays stream about the '20 tiles' limit for stretches of straight rail that must be kept up using supports. In a different reply, someone mentioned '20 rail tiles'. Now, I need a bit of clarification.

Are we talking about 20 [terrain ...

Thank you for letting me know that I made an incorrect assumption. It was late in my time zone, and I just wanted to verify the result quickly. I was partially right though, with the formula being written wrong on the wiki. Actually, I performed the test twice, but I did not spend enough time ...

I happened to look at the wiki page about Stronger explosives because I was curious about whether or not the radius of the nuclear blast would increase in size on screen. However, when I paid more attention to the values for infinite research, something did not jive.

For Level 7, the equation ...

Even though it is because I was looking for answers to a mod issue, I found something that might have been overlooked and missed in the base code. If the duplication is not supposed to be there, then I figured that I would bring it to someone's attention, so that it can be rectified with the next ...

This might not belong here, but it is related to 1.1.3.

I was looking for some insights into a mod that I have provided assistance with, and I was trying to determine if there is an easy way to prevent handcrafting of certain items, because the recipe creates more than one stack when completed, and ...

I will try to explain what happened. Sorry for the novella you are about to read.

Last night, my time zone, I finished working on some blueprints. As usual, I hit Escape and saved the current map following my own file naming convention. It saved without any warnings or issues and I exited Factorio ...
