Re: i'm looking to compare Pumpjack Pollution.

good to know that /Tick is legacy. i could maybe try punching numbers in and seeing if i can find numbers that would seem to about match up, though reading Pollution in game has some margin for error so i'm not sure how confident i'd be in that route. though, if previously it was /second/Watt, i mig...

i'm looking to compare Pumpjack Pollution.

right to the point - i'm trying to compare the Pollution rates of an alternative Pumpjack via a Mod and the vanilla. for the Mod i can just easily read the Script, though Pollution rates in the Script aren't the same as they appear in the game for other Entities. https://i.imgur.com/xymW8Tz.png okay...

Favorite/Bookmark Mods on official Modsite.

tried quickly searching a bit but didn't get any hits related to this. and... this seems like the best place for this? it's almost a sort of 'other' category. anyways a pretty strong feature to have - the ability to 'save' Mods on the Modsite so that you can find their page on the site easily later,...

Re: Fluid Processing Poll for input sides

being able to reverse the orders (so still can't mix but which order doesn't matter - Light Oil would be fixed though since it's the middle) is practical, yes. the random nature of the ground can definitely make for some very strange looking pipe minefields if you must put your Refinery and Et Ceter...

Re: I can´t go though the tunnel!!!

that isn't really something to fix. it's a Belt, it's not for transporting people, it's for transporting small manufactured goods like gears and plates of Metal.

Re: Is loop based train design totally broken?

it sounds like your stations are on your main rails of travel? don't do that. Stations should always be off of the main paths of travel. one way loops with appropriately placed turning points is the 'correct' way to use Trains though, so it definitely works. The correct way to do single-engine train...

Re: Is bitter pathing always been so broken when aggroing tons?

'training' ? sounds like a Mod. if you're using a Mod to do things you can't normally (like make Enemies into pets), then it's 50/50 at best of fault to the game and the Mod. Factorio can't really adjust it's programming to fix bugs or problems that only occur with Mods. as that's a potentially infi...

Re: Best way to defend

the mention of the Pollution overlay is good to note - you can see what Bugs are likely to attack based on if it's generating Pollution. Bugs basically chase Pollution (in the simplest form), so any location that is going to generate enough Pollution to piss off some Bug Hives, will spur retalliatio...

Re: new concrete graphic?

that looks almost Factorio, just need to 'dirty' up the appearance of it a bit, just like how the current Concrete has varying scratches, stains, and Et Cetera on it.

Re: Game FPS at End game

i'll just reiterate that 'not using 100% of my CPU' is not how computers work.

if it's bogging down, that means it's reached the limits of your Processor since Factorio is entirely CPU bound on not potato computers.
if you want more information i already explained it earlier.
