Re: Rocket Launch by Circuit Condition

The silo is an assembler. It turns 100 rocket parts and 1 satellite into 1000 space science.

Normal assemblers refuse to run (consume inputs) if the output slot is full, even if there's a full set of input items available. The silo should, too, for consistency.

Re: Research graph similar to production graphs to visualize research speed over time.

Science packs already show up in the production graph. It would be nice to have something like the old Civilization game where there's an estimate of how much time it will take to complete the current research. (This is a rough estimate based on progress in the last few minutes.) Also there could be...

Re: Additional Virtual Signals for Operating on Red and Green

Sorry that I'm answering so long. I was too preoccupied in 0.15. Lol no worries, I've been playing a lot of 0.15 too. you could generate a signal at the warehouse if that warehouse is running low on space, instead of trying to compute everything in one place. I understand that you want the circuit ...

Re: [0.15] Make it easier to see electric wire over copper patch

Thanks ssilk. I'm really loving 0.15. (And probably spending more time playing the game than is good for me.) Keep up the good work.

I know you can't give me a timeframe, but is this on the "to do" list for the devs?

Re: Generic Barreling/Unbarreling Recipe

If "Move them to a different" tab is the official answer, then they should go in a separate tab in the base game. No, if I'm reading correctly the official answer is "vanilla Factorio is fine the way it is, and if you want them moved to another tab you can install a mod that does thi...

The wires are on my list of "needs complete refurbish". And as they are yet, it is obvious for the devs, too. I was hoping this would be simple - change the wire color or add a small border? I know the devs are hard at work on more important bugs, and I hope they'll be able to fix this as...

Re: Suggestion: Show signals tip on circuit network listeners

It would improve the learning curve if you could see at a glance what the input and output signals of a combinator are by mousing over its input and output tiles. If you mouse over a combinator it will show you the input and output of that combinator. I'd love to see the same circuit network inform...

Re: Crafting Menu Addition: Utilities

Are you saying the light should be in its own tab by itself? How many tabs do you think there should be, and what should be moved?

For what it's worth, I'd rather stay with four tabs even though some items don't fit perfectly.

Re: Ability to destroy unneeded components of oil processing

If you just want to get rid of a liquid you can pump it into a steam engine. (This worked in 0.14. I don't know if it is still valid for 0.15.)

Re: Additional Virtual Signals for Operating on Red and Green

Now that I've had more time to think about it, I think that if enough people are going to use this then it should be implemented.

Re: Permission System

Ahh, well in order to edit permissions you still have to be an admin. So you don't have to worry about that. As a suggestion, not a bug, could that be clarified in the GUI? I looked at the GUI and I think the OP made a perfectly reasonable assumption. If a permission is "admin only" pleas...
