Re: Robots stuck in air
You're probably missing storage containers for them to drop their load. I've got like 8 active requester chests requesting nothing but concrete, and there are lots of robots coming in with concrete, but there are so many hanging in mid air. Following your advice I built 8 storage chests, and they s...

Robots stuck in air
Typical problem, I'm sure. What's going on here? So many logistics robots hanging around mid air. I've got a row of blue chests (request chests), set to 9999999-INF concrete, and I have a ton of supply chests with concrete elsewhere (same network), and the chests are being filled, but why are these ...

Re: Main bus newbie question
Nah not really. Just might make your trains a bit longer is all. You can also turn your bus whenever you want so you technically could make it go in a spiral if you were so inclined. Although adding resources to the inner factories after the fact would be quite the nightmare if you didn’t plan ahea...

Main bus newbie question
Hi, I've played a LOT of Factorio, but never really progressed beyond spaghetti phase :D WIth lots of manual insertion. My question is: When you make a main bus - let's say left to right (eastwards), that kind of locks you into expanding ever westwards in search of more resources, doesn't it? Becaus...

Re: Pipe fuel bug or is it my fault?
In the new fluid system, there are ways that a second fluid can hide, if you previously made an accidental connection to a different fluid. There have been several threads about this. To clean it up, click on the pipe, then click on the trash button for the fluid that you don't want to be in the pi...

Re: Pipe fuel bug or is it my fault?
The pipe starts off having some red liquid, then the volume drops down to zero, and climbs up again as blue liquid. As though the engine is pushing out blue liquid towards the chemical plant.

Pipe fuel bug or is it my fault?
This chemical plant should output red liquid, and it does, for ~10 seconds, then the red icons turn light blue, and the pipe has been filled with blue liquid. Anybody got any clue why this happens? Bug, or my mistake? I've highlighted the relevant pipe.
