[0.17.59] Rocks at base of cliff appear over conveyor

Not sure if it should appear under, or possibly should block conveyors from being placed at such locations.

Re: Patreon

C'mon guys. Bob is one of the most popular Factorio modders and he's put in a ton of work. Surely there are more than two of us whom can spare even just a couple dollars per month to reward him for endeavoring a hobby we all enjoy the fruits of that he could be doing something else and earning a wag...

Re: burning more fluids?

D'OH I have been trying to work toward getting setups to burn oil for the oil burner, only to find this thread and find out I can burn any combustible fluid! Thanks for giving me a big derp, bob. :P Any chance you might bork your entire mod by changing the name from "Oil Burner" to less sp...

Belt/Underground Belt & Pipe/Underground Pipe planner

I can't be the only one whom has to string underground pipes over long distances sometimes which is frustrating. Try to do it in, say, a car for speed, and no matter how orthogonal you try to drive, eventually you go one pixel too far to a side and blamo, my string of underground pipes is broken and...

Re: Underground pipe description missing

I really hope you keep pecking at this, bob. Its one of those little annoying things to have no in-game differentiation between the different underground pipes to tell when you have researched one that will reach farther than your existing ones and its worth switching.

SUGGESTION: New vehicle: Bulldozer

I really liked ckhawks's bulldozer mod ( https://mods.factorio.com/mod/bulldozer ), but it hasn't been updated since 0.15. Any chance bob (or a bob's modmodder) might consider making a version compatible with current versions of Factorio? Its a nice alernative to nuking forest to clear it, particula...

Re: Friday Facts #211 - The little things

I posted a suggestion for awhile regarding ghost planners: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=52482 TL;DR - allow placing rail/chain signals (or rail/chain signal ghosts) on ghost rails. Its just frustrating having to wait for construction bots to bring the rail sections before you ...

Re: How to reduce forest generation?

May I suggest an alternative? The Bulldozer Mod: https://mods.factorio.com/mods/ckhawks/bulldozer A vehicle researched from the car that lets you cut and gather trees. Its MUCH faster than trying to manually harvest. The vehicle itself drives and maneuvers like a tank; when in the vehicle there's a ...

Allow rail signal/chain signal placement on ghost rails

Yes, I know you can include signal/chain signals in blueprints , but often I have to dynamically link rails using the rail planner to hook up to new ore patches to harvest or navigate trains around water or other obstacles, etc. Its a bit annoyingly tedious that I either have to wait for bots to act...

[0.15.34] Bots immune to Atomic Bomb explosion

I am running Bob's Mods, but I doubt that's the cause, but maybe someone could test in vanilla? I was using Atomic Bombs to clear forests (because hey, why not? P:) when some of my bots crossed into the blast area, and I noticed they took no damage. To confirm, I later intentionally fired an atomic ...

Re: [0.12.x][v0.12.11] Bob's Warfare mod

Would really like to see larger equipment grid sizes on vehicles, especially advanced vehicles. Top tier tank has 10x6 grid, versus top tier power armor has 16x16. When I have top tier power armor, vehicles are virtually useless -- I can stuff my grid with exoskeletons and shields and move faster an...

Re: Friday Facts #191 - Gui improvements

A suggestion: If the quickbar is no longer going to be a separate inventory, why not let the quickbar be bigger? It would seem kinda dumb to make it being bigger as a tech requirement (but maybe that tech could be replaced with making your inventory bigger instead)? Meanwhile why not let the quickba...

Re: [0.14.x] Bob's Mods: General Discussion

Hard to think of equipment module suggestions that haven't already been made or aren't already common -- faster, more weapons, etc. and shields. I think shields would be really great not only for helping attack aliens and the spawning nests, but for cutting through forests without fear of accruing t...

Currently, burner inserters start with some limited free energy.
