Re: Friday Facts #425 - Behind the legs

I don't like how legs in the Spidertron's new animation stretch all the way during a regular walk sideways (on the screen). The original looked somewhat orderly, while the new looks a bit funky to me, creeps me out a bit, to be honest.

Re: We support Ukraine


Suddenly politics?


Did you see what lies Russian state media outlets are writing about the war? More places writing about it may tell more Russians what's actually going on.

Re: Friday Facts #364 - 1.1 stable

Thanks guys, those new features are amazing, with exception to the automatic underground belt traversal, which is freaking EPIC! :shock:

Re: Friday Facts #360 - 1.0 is here!

Congratulations on 1.0.0! I especially love you updated the trailer as well, because I really like it and it was my first encounter with the game. And as I can see here, the Spidertron... :o Thank you to keep us with you along the ride with FFF, to be honest I'll really miss them. Anyway, I'll be ...

Re: [0.18.16] Crash on start: "Error: Failed to create a texture...E_OUTOFMEMORY"

I'm here because of the exact "problem"! :-) I didn't notice I'm low on RAM when launching the game and it crashed twice exactly as you describe, with third attempt resulting in BSOD.

I know this isn't exactly developer's fault, but Isn't there a way the game would check sufficient memory is ...

Re: Version 0.17.2


It is a tad awkward, but once you change the way you think about it, it at least makes sense.


I have no problem to wrap my head around shortcuts, for me it's a better concept than a separate inventory as it was before, but I'm having hard times using it. I'm accidentaly creating multiple ...

Re: Steam Best Developer nomination

C'mon, Wube, set up your creator homepage thru Steam - you really deserve The Best Developer Award!

I tried to nominate Warhorse and Kingdom Come, so it's possible to have Wube and Factorio (in my case for The Most Fun with a Machine Award, as it perfectly matches the description :-)

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

I want the ability to be able to click a research with prerequisites, click research, and have the game automatically research the prerequisites without further futzing on my part.

Exactly! It's the same concept, as crafting, so it's already in Factorio's DNA, so to speak :-). If I wouldn't want ...

Plurals are often categorized as "zero, one, few, many, other". Unicode have a whole webpage dedicated just to plural rules in different languages: http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/33/s ... es.html#cs

Re: Friday Facts #166 - Combat Revisit

I start my games with Enemy Bases set to Very High freq. + Very big size, with very small starting area. I love the feeling of imminent danger and I feel cozy in my "castle". I'm big turret creeper and I don't like it, but I can't resist - if the game allows, it's no cheating. In the late game (20 ...

Re: Friday Facts #162 - Theme Art Again

I play with enemies maxed out from the start to make it more challenging. Now I'm 20 % away from finishing the silo and I don't even collect artifacts any more, just clearing nests for more production lines. The down side is that I don't need trains in this setting, because everything is just too ...
