Unfortunately #1 is just not currently viable due to how many places and ways can send the event (the current count is 15 places across robots, mods, direct player actions, copy-pasting spidertron settings and so on). #2 is not possible because by the time the equipment is removed - it is gone ...

I'd like to see more of this. Anyway...
1. Diffusion models are generally used to produce high quality AI images and video. It probably just needs some more work.
2. Maybe don't only use a spaghetti base as training data?
3. Yeah, running it on a GPU rather than a CPU should make it much faster.
4 ...

What did you do?
I made a mod that added a space location with a magnitude property below 0.05 , then looked at it in the starmap.

What happened?
The rendering for starmap icons appeared to freak out with such a small magnitude. The icon starts scaling with zoom level (that is, it changes size ...

I'm sure a bunch of people are going to be either really mad or really happy about this. I'm proposing that TechnologyPrototype.unit.ingredients is of type Array[ItemIngredientPrototype] rather than Array[ResearchIngredient] , with the restriction that all of the ItemIngredientPrototype s' name ...

You do know that they're the creator of belt draw, right?

Feel free to use anything for yourself, i won't create this mod so please don't assume i am "sharing what i am working".

Warning: "this mod" = the mod i am suggestiong. I did not give it a name since whoever makes this mod will be the one who has the privilige to name it

Did you ever play with ...

You can already do this by rebalancing quality or faking quality.

No? That just changes the game speed...

Doesn't this already exist... twice?
Link to Space Block
Link to Spage Block

There's also the 1.1 mod called Spaceblock - though it hasn't been updated to 2.0 yet so it probably isn't what you're looking for:

Can't you just reduce the amount of ingredients required? Basically, what's the difference between:

{ inputs = { "catalyst" = 10, ignored_by_consumption=true},
outputs = { "catalyst" = 5} }

and

{ inputs = { "catalyst" = 5},
outputs = { } }


I don't understand your argument... ignored_by ...

There are 4 main options available for you:

Use Quality.
Never play Factorio again. (not recommended)
Start a new save game.
Play an overhaul mod(s). (highly recommended)



I don't know much about Minecraft, so i may be wrong but i don't think the mod "redstone" that inspired factorio adds ...

I'd like to be able make a machine that takes in 2 items, a catalyst and another ingredient, then outputs 2 more items, the catalyst back and another result. However, at least in my case, it doesn't make sense for the machine to "output" the catalyst, rather for it to just stay in the input slot ...

This is a great idea - it would improve many mods that currently have to use a chest instead of a machine for various reasons. (in particular, having a million different recipes you want the machine to be able to perform) Though, I'd want to be able to make it furnace-like with more than 1 input ...

I think I actually saw the mod before you told us about it. : )
I certainly saw the mod before I read your message, of course.

The optimal space platform design is a rectangle and it can't have holes



Nope. I've recently been working a space platform that's less than 2 thrusters in horizontal width but has well over 2 thrusters in total.
It mostly looks rectangular, but it has very big gaps, since thrusters prevent ...

...and no. That mod completely removes the player character. What this person is looking for almost certainly is just to be able to deploy a roboport on new planets instead of players, not to remove the player entirely.

there is quality_affects_energy_usage for crafting machine but not for lab, furnace and I may miss some.

Furnaces inherit from crafting machines, as other people have pointed out, but labs and mining drills do ...

It's not related.

It makes sense that fluid temperature affects crafting speed by default, but I want to make a steam powered plant grower and harvester and it makes no sense for fluid temperature to affect how quickly plants grow. I searched the modding API for anything ...
