Re: Multiple Game folders, or Multiple Mod folders....

As long as it is all the same game version, all you have to do is hit the Sync with Save button. It will sync all of your mods and settings, restart, and you are good to go. factorioSync.png Yes they would all be the same version (all the different 17.78 mod pack saves) Hmm, so it sounds like you c...

Re: Problem updating multiple installs on one computer.

Yes I do download the zip versions... i.e. Factorio_x64_0.17.66.zip OK, looking at the 17.66 folders, 17.66 the config.ini did show "enable-experimental-updates=true" The two modded folders had the lines commented out. "; enable-experimental-updates=false" I suspect now that when...

Re: Version 0.17.54

Re: [MOD 0.13] Big Bags - more space in your bags

Update to 17.38 and the mod will not load. (This was broken in 17.37 as well.) some error concerning trying to index Player. See the previous post... The break started in 17.35 when they changed a variable in the game from using "Player" to "Character" the fix is easy, just repl...

Re: Version 0.17.20

Fixed that the quick bar and shortcut bar weren't aligned on UI scales other than 100% and 200%, making the game literally unplayable.

Re: [Mod 0.17] Power Armor MK3

I was looking at the mod on the portal and I see images for belt immunity and nightvision. Both of those are already in vanilla. What purpose does the versions in MK3 serve? More better? (Though not sure how more better you can get than "immunity" :D) Belt Immunity was only added in the b...

Re: [Mod 0.17] Power Armor MK3

If you want to use the "FactorioExtended Plus-Equipment" mod, then why do you also want to use This mod? At first glance they both do the same thing. Add Power Armor level 3 and upgraded equipment to go in it. (Shields, reactors, roboports, etc.) So Why do you want to use both. The main di...

Re: Epic Artillery Sounds

Any chance to have a 0.17 version? A sound mod like this probably will work with just an info.json edit, until the author can update the mod portal release. Yes I just changed the info.jason to be for 0.17. Works ok. Lines I changed: "factorio_version": "0.17", "dependencie...

Re: [MOD 0.14.x] Bottleneck

Thats strange, the first time I tried the first link, (typing it into a browser) it gave me a factorio 404 error page.
I then copied that address from the browser to the post, so I am pretty sure it was not mistyped..

In Game Mod list forum URLs clickable or Selectable

When I start a game and check my mod list (to see if there are any updates for example) many of them have Contact: links or Homepage: links, usually to Forum threads. But I can not interact with those URLs in any way. If I want to go to that contact link, I need to manually type it into a browser wi...

As it stands now, due to the color scheme I can not read the discussion text in the Mod Portal.
