Re: We support Ukraine

Yes there may have been some incidents to blame on Ukrainian army since the conflict started in 2014 (like the usage of BM-21 Grad missiles in populated areas according to wikipedia, I don't know how reliable that info is). But all incidents from those 8 years combined don't even compare to what hap...

Re: IR in 0.18

Hi Deadlock, I just like to say IR was the first conversion mod I tried and it just hit the perfect spot for me. The reason to try it was mostly the art style of the new buildings which were fitting so well with the standard Factorio style, unlike the other overhaul mods I've seen so far. The start ...

Re: Friday Facts #293 - New remnants 2 & 1.0 Marketing plan

...I also like your style in being honest and transparent. I can also concur with your definition of capitalism. So I think the talent and character of the factorio team is really wasted in developing factorio for ten more years. You invested alot of time, money, sweat and tears and made its way, i...

Re: Friday Facts #293 - New remnants 2 & 1.0 Marketing plan

To get more exposure to people who don't already know of the game I think it's good to focus on the educational aspect of the game. A lot of non-gamers see games as simple things on their phone (still waiting for Factorio on Android btw!) and kids shooting each other other in popular multiplayer gam...

Re: Friday Facts #211 - The little things

Great! To be honest I didn't experience the ugly belt and pipe blueprints as a problem anymore as I got used to it. But now that I know it can be fixed I'm really looking forward to it. You can see it as just a minor inconvenience, but if you use blueprints a lot, and you should use it a lot, this w...

Re: Friday Facts #198 - Rail segment visualisation

I spent so much time trying to fix incorrect rail crossings, until I discovered the debug mode. I'm happy to see you're considering a UI change to include it in standard gameplay. But then I still like to have one other debug option enabled: show_rail_paths. With this it's very easy if it's safe to ...

Re: Friday Facts #194 - Automated combinator pipeline

Again a nice FFF. It makes me wonder if there are other game devs with similar workflow automation scripts. You would be crazy not to look into this to save a lot of work and deliver very consistent work. And I played my first song in Factorio. Downloaded one from http://www.download-midi.com/ (prob...

Places to stay

I will start this topic to see where others are staying. I want something cheaper than a hotel, so a hostel is an obvious choice. They can be like as low as 10 euro for one night but I prefer not to choose the cheapest option and something like 30/40 per night is still reasonable. But maybe more imp...

Re: Friday Facts #192 - One million

Congrats! You guys deserve every penny of it! I don't know what exactly to say about the party. I wish it was a bit closer to home, as I'm from the Netherlands. What I find quite funny is that this is literally a dream coming true, as I posted this as reaction to #186 - Marathon testing, at the peak...

Re: Friday Facts #190 - The quiet days

I'm wondering what you are doing with the 3D printer in the office. I imagine you print the game models so the office is decorated with real life Factorio items :) And which printer do you have?

Re: Friday Facts #186 - Marathon testing

A word of encouragement for the devs. Every post complaining about the progress of this release is a fan who really really likes your game! :) In fact I have a theory. The increase in complaints is caused by "factorio withdrawal". A lot of us are trying really hard NOT to play your game s...
