For point two: They are twice as efficient as lightning rods and cover a larger area. Why not use them?


1. They are 2x2 instead of 1x1, cost a lot and are unlocked when your base is already covered
2. Lightning efficiency is never a limiting factor, you are always capped by the accumulators
3 ...

Each time a new version is release, factorio-data repo gets updated -- a new dump of data is created, version is bumped, and tag is created
However, I just noticed that the version is bumped to a next version rather than the version being released. It is OK to keep in development branch, but it's ...

I think that may run into the same issue but from the other end. Where the rail ghosts get built in the air before the ramp is moved, getting the ramp robot stuck again. But I don't know for sure.

Personally, I think the game is trying to be too smart about everything in this scenario and it's ...

If any Feature Requests are made, can the links be shared here?

Looking into this, I don't think there's a solution that will allow the robots to actually perform the requested operation. The elevated rails require supports and the logic wants to remove one of them to move it slightly... but it can never do that without also removing the elevated rails ...

Edit. Okay, I got it. The problem is the fact I have Production screen open. Opening it during autosave causes crash. 10:58 is the time of next autosave.

Edit: Loading this savefile on 2.0.55 causes crash after some time at exactly the same time (10:58 on timer)

Was playing tight space, and the game crashed. Attaching logs, crash dump & latest autosave.

In 1.1, landfill costed 20 stone. In 2.0.7, its cost was changed to 50, an increase of +150%.

Yes, this is what I was describing? It is finicky to Blueprint these in some Slot types; my point was that you can “get away with more” by editing the Blueprint String than is possible in Vanilla. This Bug Report seems to be a case of one of these “features” being removed.

I don’t mind too much ...

There are some other “not normally possible” setups that can be created with Blueprint string hacking, like setting Item Requests in non-Logistic chests…


You can request items as ghost requests via in-game logic. Check this out ...

This update somehow "cleared" experimental-latest beta branch on Steam, and moved me to 2.0.47. I didn't change any Steam settings. 2.0.54 still available on beta branches however.
