Bug Report Deleted?

I recently posted a bug report about the website. It was deleted, not moved, and I got no notifications. Can I have an explanation?

Would have been nice to know if I posted in the wrong place, or *why* the removal

Re: Friday Facts #394 - Assembler flipping and circuit control

Thanks for listening to our feedback regarding bulk/stack inserters. I'm happy to see that was switched. I recommend releasing an update in the 1.x branch with the name change to make is less of a harsh transition in 2.0.

Re: Friday Facts #393 - Putting things on top of other things

I'm curious why you didn't just set blacklist to be the default instead of adding a new UI element. I think it is because blacklist filter also means it waits for you to set the filter, just like the filter inserters did before. That wouldn't make sense. If you're blacklisting nothing, it would gra...

Re: Friday Facts #389 - Train control improvements

IMO this makes LTN and Cybersyn almost irrelevant. Would only like to change priorities of stations, maybe there is a way to do this as well i just have not realized yet. With interrupts being executed in order, you could put your higher priority stations higher in the list, and they'd be executed ...

Re: Friday Facts #389 - Train control improvements

Someone on Reddit suggested a condition that would test against remaining fuel Mj. This way you don't need to test for low specific fuel type(s). If fuel Mj is low, go refuel. If you change fuel type in the refueling station later on, the train doesn't even need to know. With the fact that I interr...

Re: Friday Facts #378 - Trains on another level

I concur with some of the others, when they mentioned that trains should slow down when going up a ramp. Going uphills can certainly impact speed, and I'd imagine it should translate here as well.

Re: Train station priority to complement train station limits.

I understand this is in the not implemented, but I wanted to put a take on this, in the hopes it can be reopened (Instead of making an entirely new thread). I think the one thing for me that sets back the train system in vanilla is the need for priorities, and I do believe a lot of the things mentio...

Re: Friday Facts #374 - Smarter robots

These are some nice changes. I'm curious though, how much these extra calculations (Flight time, etc) are going to effect UPS. Bots are cornerstones of megabases, and I can see this potentially really effecting UPS.

Tooltips: A better way to modify them via modding

I'd like to improve how tooltips work, to give better control to developers on how they're drawn on the screen. For example, right now, I'm trying to make an entity that is a cross between an Arithmetic Combinator, and a Constant Combinator. It has Inputs, and based on some data, it will have differ...

Re: mute the game while alt-tabbed

Is this feature really that hard to implement?.. Many games have it like Path of Exile, Dota 2, even saw it in Darkest Dungeon... If I didn't knew, I would bet everything that Factorio is one of the games where it definitely should have been as I think many people often stay AFK... As for me, every...

Optera! I love LTN, and the amazing work you put in to this great mod. I use it pretty much in all my saves, and it really has been a life saver. After seeing a lot of your recent posts mention that you no longer play the game, have you thought about making your license a bit more permissive so that...

Re: Temp. Stations. Setting to disable them?

They are intended to make the train go to the exact station in the case of duplicate stations. You say this is an "ugly workaround", but what harm does it do? It doesn't affect the delivery in the slightest, it will still go the same route it did if it didn't have the temporary stop. The o...
