Re: Friday Facts #412 - Undo/Redo improvements & Car Latency driving

the only change the car needs is better brakes.
This has been my biggest factorio pet peeve for years, i've been harping on it since the nuclear update... if you make it faster, you must make it stop faster too.

Re: Spidertron roboport control

Can we get a sidebar toggle to turn spidertron roboports on/off? If - and until - this is implemented, maybe this feature exists / could be added to : https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Shortcuts-ick ? It can and it has been. Check out the newest version. I had this on my todo list already and finally g...

Spidertron roboport control

Can we get a sidebar toggle to turn spidertron roboports on/off? or maybe just make the existing one function for spidertron when we are holding the remote? I keep getting low energy bots all over the place because they jump out for some random task that shouldnt be assigned to them while spidertron...

Re: 4.5 PPH is too low! right?

heh, thats why I bought the game again when they released the steam version.

I only play the steam version about 1/10th of the time, and i'm still down to about 1 penny/hour myself on just that one... :)

(also bought a couple shirts to show some love)

I made myself a new challenge for 1.0, it ended up being my most fun build yet!

I love the polluted water effect, but it also made me sad for escaping the planets and leaving it behind so dirty... So I made my goal to launch a rocket with my starting water source still blue! I (mostly) succeeded. :D How did I accomplish this you ask? TREES. No, really LOTS AND LOTS of TREES. af...

Re: Did anyone else delete your achievements at 1.0 launch?

I won't. It was a pain do do lazy bastard and it took me an unreasonable amount of time to achieve the spoon. I'm not resetting those. Moreover I don't feel they have become that much more difficult with 1.0, so my efforts shouldn't be dismissed. (dont ask, no there is no official way: google if yo...

Re: Spidertron facts

hmm, I just thought of something very intersting. I'll have to try something: the roboports. can it bridge 2 static networks? as a way to manually control independant networks? say you have an area with 2 networks you want to keep separate, and have a spidertron there to remotely step inbetween them...

Re: What happens after 1.0 release?

Why only one layer above and below? I always think to Rollercoaster Tycoon 2. Factorio and RCT2 share many similarities but RCT2 did some things better: - isometric angle of view - genius ways to build landscape - genius ways to build tracks and coasters. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/rct/ima...

Re: What's the plan for 1.0?

Long time players know 1.0 will be 99.9% what we're playing now. New players who won't buy Early Access titles aren't here yet. I was quite happy to see the highlight of last weeks FF was that mods will not be broken by the jump. For some reason my brain was still thinking the release was a few wee...
