Re: Friday Facts #180 - Map interaction

The map improvements look most welcome. Feedback: - "logistics area visualisation" IMHO does need roboport connections displayed, both to help with off-by-one placement errors and to better visualize bot traffic issues/patterns/paths. - It would be nice to be able to more easily visually i...

Re: Friday Facts #169 - Combat revisit 2

Looks great! In the end maybe your ingenuity and effort of building all those electric poles should be rewarded; If the player wants to do it that way, why not let him? I do not feel that turret creep is such a problem and would not worry about it. Still I am interested if any of you (the community ...

Re: Friday Facts #160 - Playtesting

We can still do the expansion pack with additional stages of the game and space exploration later, but that is a different story. Great story; I'll look forward to such an expansion pack! Finding 3 - the most needed changes I do not disagree with "Finding 3 - the most needed changes" -- t...

Re: [MOD 0.12.29] Robot Soldiers. RTS precursor?

This is a good idea and I had no idea that modding Factorio could be so easy! I'm busy for the next couple weeks, but I'll take a look once I'm back.

Thanks for using the MIT licence.

Re: Friday Facts #133 - The train struggle

Another option to counter the train problem is to make train station tiles, that are linked with the train stop. A train would be able to be (un)loaded in that station but it does not matter how long the train is (like in transport tycoon). This could also be a great addition to the game if you can...

Re: Friday Facts #133 - The train struggle

The heavy inserter concept seems like a good, practical step forward from the loader concept. Could we also have a "double inserter" then which would pick up and place items on both sides of a belt? I think that would cover all the use cases that a 2x1 loader block with a belt-like input a...

How does armor work?

I just started New Hope mission 4 (escape on the airplane) and realized that there are *2* heavy armor items in my character's armor slot. I checked out the big worms to the south and they *murdered* me. I don't understand at all how the combat damage system works. In theory, there is some good info...

Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth

Yes, the loader is a great idea for the late game.

Late game should eventually become more strategic, with less micromanagement.
