Re: Friday Facts #374 - Smarter robots
Oddly enough, out of all the new announcements this is the one I'm by far the most excited about. I love building gigantic bloated roboport networks covering my entire territory. I'm a very slow paced player, so my bots taking an hour to complete a build is outweighed by the convenience of being abl...

Re: Friday Facts #376 - Research and Technology

For instance, waiting several minutes for logistics bots to fulfill my personal logistics, because many of my logi bots are a thousand tiles aw...

Re: Friday Facts #373 - Factorio: Space Age
Well, I wasn't expecting this, I felt a mixture of excitement and horror when I saw Earendel as the list of authors for this FFF. I just finished up a 700 hour SE run you see!
