I think stone bricks in electric furnaces also allow productivity modules, don't they?

Considering Tapatalk is over ten years old and this is literally the only time I've ever seen it mentioned, that might be a contributing factor.

If the general approach as I described is an intended approach by the devs, then in my opinion there can be one improvement in the upcoming 2.1: A special promethium cargo bay only usable on space platforms that has a storage density of 25 promethium asteroid chunks per tile. The same density as ...

It's a pretty quick fix with a filtered inserter and a chest, so I can't say I've thought about it ahead of time...

Adding my hat to the "not a bug" ring. Not being able to get the benefit of a filtered splitter until the following tile would absolutely suck.

Right, it should be explicitly finite or actually infinite.

Does there? It's an infinite research. If there's going to be a limit then the research itself should be finite instead of infinite, like was done with weapon shooting speed.

You can get copper from metallic asteroids after researching Advanced Asteroid Processing (https://wiki.factorio.com/Advanced_aste ... (research)), but you don't really need piercing ammo in the inner system.

Plenty of people have encountered this issue. As far as I know, they all missed a setting on map creation, which is why people are trying to help you figure out which setting you missed.

Isn't this scrap productivity? https://wiki.factorio.com/Scrap_recycli ... (research)

Copper is a spoilage product of copper bacteria. If an inserter is forced to hold a spoilage product that its target machine can't accept, the product is forced into a spoilage output slot so the inserter doesn't lock up and require manual intervention.

Additionally, in the base game, the Solar energy research is already a prerequisite for the Rocket silo research due to the Satellite recipe requiring Solar panels.


Pretty sure this has only been the case since 2.0 as the satellite and rocket silo used to be separate techs.


I clearly ...

So you quit Space Age before it actually diverged from pre-2.0 vanilla...? Huh?

I wanted to bring attention to how the targeting algorithm has "issues" with regards to HP/closest target when it comes to one-shotting cases, such as railguns + huge asteroids. The very spirit of the algorithm was to make it a really good one and it works in most cases. This is one case where it ...

If your railguns are failing their targeting because of rocket splash, have you tried moving your rockets back a few tiles?

If a Modpack has not been updated for 6+ months since Release, then there may be un-solvable issues, or simply a lack of Developer Interest. Lamentable, but many mods are open source with a Permissive License, so we are all free to step in and help…. If we want to.


The developer of SE is still ...

Off-the-cuff question with no research, but can production statistics of surfaces be directly read/edited by the modding interface?

You have to first *build* all of the things in the way, dealing with the biters and worms attempting to kill you and all of the placed things. If you manage to get past all of that - then yes they stop spawning. But you could have trivially killed the nest several times over long before you get ...
