I suppose I missed a vital detail: even when the first request is unable to be met it will hold up all the others. If the request is able to be met then sure, that would be understandable. But when nothing is coming to the roboport despite other requests being able to be met, it is very unclear

What I noticed:
I was using a roboport to request all logistic robots of quality less than legendary to remove from the system. I set each request to 50 and all was well. As soon as I changed the common request to 500, only common ...

What did you do? - Had line_length = 0 in a sprite sheet. The documentation implies this is an acceptable value.
What happened? - The game consistently crashed when trying to boot. The log was consistent every crash.
What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it ...

Hello, I think this would be fantastic because as of right now, the only way of obtaining the distance a platform has traveled is by summing up a platforms speed over an interval of time. This works alright at best, and can only be very general. There is no way of telling whether a platform ...

This is possible to do via scripting actually, it's just kinda hacky. The gist of it is:
1. Detect on_pre_build and check if the cursor stack contains a blueprint item.
2. If yes, then you get the blueprint entities of this blueprint.
3. Then, find the bounding box of the blueprint (I think flib ...

This would be a life saver, no rush at all.

Some of the new prototypes (such as space-locations, planets, etc) do not have helpful descriptions under their respective pages. In the past, the descriptions would be helpful (see the 3 links), now with no descriptions it becomes unclear what the exact intended behavior is.

For example, the space ...

1. What did you do? - I created a new space location prototype with a mod I am making that is meant to be hidden for scripting purposes. I created the prototype with hidden = true .
2. What happened? - In game, the space location was actually not hidden, and was very much select-able as a station ...

thanks

1. What did you do? - Using a mod I am making to tweak heating radii, I set heat pipes to have a heating_radius of 0. Placing these heat pipes unconnected to a heat source works fine. Then, I connected a heat pipe to a heat source (heating interface, heating tower, or nuclear reactor)

2. What ...

yeah I hadn't exactly expressed it right but yeah I guess my point was that the modding docs dont actually mention that it sneakily behaves as a int16 where the value is a percentage of that number. The way it is set up currently led me to believe I could have a effective effect value of some large ...

Currently the effect value page https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/types/EffectValue.html#bonus claims that bonus is stored as a double. This is not the case, it is actually stored as a uint16 and is reflected by trying to create a module with a bonus higher than (2^16 - 1)/2 because the bonus ...
