[2.1.9] pipe circuit signal not showing 0 on empty pipe

What did you do?

connect signal to fuel pipe which is leading to thrusters

What happened?

pipe is getting empty due to speed control of spacecraft, but signal is still 1 while gui shows 0.00 for the piece of pipe where the circuit is connected to

Re: Fuel consumption control for thrusters in Space Age

first let's see if it stays that way ;-)
but that is a part of the fluid changes which is very handy!

Re: Tesla Turret will only be built when electrolyte fluid level in pipeline exceeds 33% (independent from amount availa


For me, only Holmium plates are beeing produced, as assemblers are draining the pipe, before the pipe filling % is high enough to produce electrolyte or Electromagnetic science.


Oh gosh! I was lucky enough to circumvent this issue accidentally since I connected Holmium plate assembler and ...

Re: [2.1.8] research is not stopped when no condition is true

Using "set research" leads for me to an assumption that it is doing the same like "set recipe" which it doesn't since the recipe is "unset" as soon as the signal stops and this is why I think another wording is needed.

Re: [2.1.8] research is not stopped when no condition is true

Ah okay, thanks for the information! I assume then that "set research" is actually more doing "enqueue research" then, right?

I know it is only a minor wording difference, but SET research kind of implicates that the search is no longer set when the condition is no longer true.
ENQUEUE research is ...

[2.1] use orbital storage instead of logistic storage for platform logistics

TL;DR

use "orbital storage" instead of "logistic storage" for platform logistics (same for other terminology)

What?

Rename "logistic storage" in space with "orbital storage" and "logistic request" with "orbital request"

Why?

Using "logistic storage" is ambiguous for entities like the ...

What did you do?

When science pack got low, and no condition reported true, the last research is continued

Tesla Turret will only be built when electrolyte fluid level in pipeline exceeds 33% (independent from amount available)

Not sure if related to: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=134309
I did post it anyway since this is not an issue of "sharing" fluid evenly, it is blocking the Tesla Turret to be built even though there is more than enough fluid in the pipeline.

What did you do?

Re: [1.1.106] Blueprint with relative grid set sometimes shows absolute grid behavior

I guess this bug is related to: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=99496 (which is marked as solved).

But the main reason why I'm writing is that this happened to me today with 2.0.76, too. And when I placed the blueprint once (just to remove it immediately since it had absolute grid ...

Yes, can confirm, when changing this setting my steam install behaves like the standalone installation and the keyboard switches properly :D

Re: [Rseding91] [1.1.41] Logitech RGB keyboard goes off when ALT TAB-ing back to Factorio


I've added a call to reset the LED state when the game detects a window-maximized/entered/restored event to see if it helps with this at all. I'm still unable to reproduce this issue on my end but maybe this will make it work for others? It will be in 2.0.52.


First of all - thank you! :space ...

[2.0.34] ammunition requests no longer in blueprints?

I could not find an entry in changelogs of 2.0.34 - 2.0.32, so I assume it is not intended: (although I assume it was done to limit cheesing spaceship logistics - problem is that it is a pain in the a** in other places now...)

Re: 3 and 4 way intersections

I made a elevated version of HansJoachim's 4 way intersection "simple": https://factoriobin.com/post/buqn83
I have no idea how these things work but they look exactly the same signal block wise so I would assume the numbers are the same (even though I have not tested it)
