Re: Friday Facts #442 - Flip, Flow, and Fresh Paint
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 ...

Re: Friday Facts #442 - Flip, Flow, and Fresh Paint
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.Erfar wrote: Fri Jun 12, 2026 11:18 am I still have 4 QoL that I'm waiting for:

Re: Friend is unable to directly connect unless I disable Windows Defender Firewall
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

Re: Friend is unable to directly connect unless I disable Windows Defender Firewall
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 ...

Re: Friend is unable to directly connect unless I disable Windows Defender Firewall
Those are Inbound Rules. I checked the file it's allowing and it's the correct EXE, and it's on the correct profile.Rseding91 wrote: Wed Dec 03, 2025 5:22 pm Are those inbound or outbound rules? You specifically need to have inbound allowed for the port the game is being hosted on.

Friend is unable to directly connect unless I disable Windows Defender Firewall
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 ...

Re: Friday Facts #439 - Factorio and Space Age on Nintendo Switch 2™
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.

Re: Agri science spoilage is not fun, just annoying.
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?

Anyone upset the end game screen isn't a screenshot of your ship?
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 ...

I made a suggestion for a similar feature inspired by Dyson Sphere Program. I'm not sure if you were directly inspired by that game, saw my post, or just independently came up with it on your own, but this is a great new addition that adds a community feeling to a game that otherwise feels ...

Any idea, when can we actually buy (or pre-order) the DLC? only on Monday or earlier?
