Re: Version 1.1.57

Improved overall performance by 5-10% when fully zoomed out. This, out of nowwhere, is why i really think they are one of the best game devs i've ever seen. They do stuff because they care and sure because they can. Btw. i guess this improvement just come because they are working on the expansion a...

Re: Friday Facts #360 - 1.0 is here!

The best development process i've followed so far. That's an absolute masterpiece what you have done. Not just the game itself, it's your comminication what have made this a journey. Thx for everything.

Nice !

There's maybe a missed opportunity here to use the chip as part of a Factorio chip ?
Next time this card is broken, than this will be it, damn.

I personally prefer https://gameservermanagers.com/lgsm/fctrserver/

Not really. It's basically a HTTP request thingy. Not related to websockets and real-time communication.

Re: Weird idea: Websocket Server to interact with the game

I had asked the devs about that, using sockets in lua, and they said that it would cause an instantaneous de-sync with the client and server Sure, it will probably only work as client only on localhost :) But i don't talk about any LUA implementation here. My idea need to be directly in the game, u...

Re: Weird idea: Websocket Server to interact with the game

RCON is just to send some commands to the server. But it's generally just a command-line interface.
No real event based system. RCON is basically just for server administrators.

As a second, the source RCON protocol is very basic per nature. I've made some programs for that protocol in the past.

Weird idea: Websocket Server to interact with the game

I had an idea that is, well, somewhat out of mind. I am generally a passionate web developer with focus on cutting edge technologies and abstract ideas. I wanted to create a mod that can interact with the game dynamically and that is able to control everything in-game from just a website. What i had...

Re: Friday Facts #224 - Bots versus belts

1+ for bots as it is currently * They allow to build in a whole new, optimized way * If removed, they would remove a lot of diversity in the game * If never have been implemented, player's would surely ask for something that can compensate that, eg: Stackable belts to transport more than 2 resources...

Icons/Text as placeables in-game, same as for the map

We currently can place icons and text labels on the minimap. This help especially in later game and multiplayer. But what is if we could take this for real world placeables too? I think about the same usage as other placeables, so it can be included in blueprints. Text can be entered in a textbox, i...

Fast Ghost Building Placement - Early game help

Hi all! When you've placed ghosts, with blueprints or manually, you can press Q on a ghost to select the item from the ghost from your inventory. This help building/replacing ghosts a lot. But, especially in early game, it's a really boring work to exactly build your perfect blueprints by hand. As l...

Re: Thank you (Make the dev-team happy today!)

I generally only write this kind of reviews for really bad or really good games. Factorio is, by far, the best "strategy" game i've ever played. It's worth every cent, i personally would pay full-price for that. It's more complete, more time consuming, better developed in quality and quant...
