I built a new nuclear reactor and after some wiring setup, the reactor outputs an additional 1 fuel than what's inside. If empty, it outputs 1. If 1 is in, it outputs 2.

These are the steps I did before:


Built Reactor
Inserter put in 6 fuel
Added circuit to restrict fuel
Told bots to remove ...

It's probably 99% that... But, I like to also think that landfill would not work when dumped into lava in the imaginary Factorio Space Age universe. I think you need something more substantial than landfill to resist melting in lava.


Absolutely, it's fine to think that. That's how I feel. But ...

Yeah, I really don't know what the idea was behind introducing another type of foundation and making it super late-game. I suppose they wanted to players to grapple again with building around tricky terrain, and landfill was too easy a solution?


It's basic gameplay progression. Much later in ...

Just wanna say I am so happy for this release!

I'm registering an account specifically to say that I don't agree with the removal of space casinos.
They are the only way to make quality modules that isn't horribly tedious. Without space casinos I'm just going to not play with quality anymore (since you're making that an option now)


How is ...

While [flipping] some things will always be impossible (Train stops, Rail signals, etc.), we do what we can.
Sentences like this are a bit more bittersweet to read now that we're in the final stretch of development, huh?

How so?


I'm sure you could spend dozens of more hours implementing a ...

You can already do this using a radar though in 2.0, and you can use channels for much more refined control is 2.1.

Will the problem be fixed where I can't set the pickup planet in my logistics group from a planet's surface?

git gud. They work fine for me.

This was likely caused by me selecting the wrong options somehow when choosing to allow. I do not know how only Public got selected. Maybe something I selected in an older interface of Windows 11? Private has always been my home network connection

Either case, I deleted the entries, then started an ...

I added two rules to my Windows Defender Firewall settings which allow TCP and UDP ports 34197, and it worked. The only difference between the existing Factorio rules is it's only for those ports, and it allows all programs.

Below I exported the rules. The first two are the ones that came installed ...

Those are Inbound Rules. I checked the file it's allowing and it's the correct EXE, and it's on the correct profile.

Hello, my friend and I were attempting to play Factorio together by using the direct connect option and me opening a port on my network. After failing for several minutes, I tried a Hail Mary and disabled Windows Defender. When I did that he could connect. I am using the Windows Defender default ...

I'm excited to play Space Age again! I really want to play without being temped to do the LDS shuffle. I've done it both times I played since it's just so powerful.

I'm currently engrossed in a few other games so it'll be exciting when I get an email announcing 2.1 has been released.

They're too busy playing Factorio. 2.1 is delayed to next year.

It adds a unique challenge because it can’t be stockpiled, and is one of the few reasons to build platforms that are as fast as possible.

Spoilage is a great mechanical that forces you to rethink the design of your factories, with a new focus on speed of the product from start to end. The ...

Can't you just build around the biter nests a bunch of pipes so the biters don't spawn? And surround them with turrets that ignore nests?

The game does have a built in screenshot feature. Seems like it would have been cool to have a personalized screenshot at the end instead of the generic one they show.

Top job folks, much love.

My gaming machine doesn't go online, so would it be possible to save the galaxy file then upload it from laptop?


What if you saved the game right before it ended, then loaded up Factorio and that save on your online laptop? There's an autosave every 10 minutes so if ...
