I have a save with some mods that just ran into this issue. Factorio 2.0.72.

I managed to figure out the problem. I don't think it is a bug bug (in my case at least) but it was certainly confusing until I figured it out by coincident. I divided my logistic network into two, accidentally. A main ...

Well I figured out how to run two instances of Factorio at the same time.

I've managed to replicate this in 2.0.10, 2.0.20, and 2.0.24. Just to first prove to myself that I wasn't insane. Jumping to 2.0.72 now. I replicated it the way it originally happened. The huge BP wasn't required for the bug ...

Awesome. I'll stop narrowing down the list of mods then and focus on my other really old bug report. So glad I finally learned OBS. Makes things a lot easier to explain than just with words.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

Well, I reproduced it in 2.0.72 using my current mod folder which is 8GB of mods and I really don't want to upload all of that if I really don't have too. Most of them are disabled anyways.


Here is a video of what I'm referring to in action recorded with OBS. Perhaps that provides enough of a hint ...

Oh. I gotcha. That was so long ago and so many mod and factorio updates since then. I'll see if I can reproduce this at all in 2.0.72 with a batch of mods and provide a zip file with them for you. Entirely possible this got fixed due to something else a long time ago.

I'll see if I can still reproduce it in the latest versions. We were just starting to check out the DocJade's AutoRail bp book so I don't think I ever put the BP in my hotbar as we ended up not using it for different reason. I mention this because of the other thread linked.

Setup is you have ...

They are all in the picture.

Click on the aircraft mod as shown in the picture. Where it lists "bobplates" on the right as an optional dependency click that little grey arrow.

Instead of factorio selecting the "bobplates" mod it is going to jump to some other random mod from the list instead. This ...

It's "intended" in that a more complex solution was deemed not worth the code complexity and performance overhead. Normally you don't store spidertrons in logistics storage pre-configured. Normally once built, a spidertron just *stays* in the world as is. If you make blueprint copies of them, they ...

There was a 1.1 mod that did this and it was amazing.

I was rather shocked this wasn't added with 2.0

Oh? I missed that patch note. I just assumed that is what OP did and it wasn't patched just quite yet.

Not sure why it isn't working for you. It is working for me on Arch Linux also through steam. As a matter of fact it was driving me insane and I had to remove those particular shortcuts off my mouse 4/5 buttons.

To reproduce:

Place a train. Open map/remote view and open the train. Set a fuel request to the train's fuel slot. Leave remote view. Get near the train with your player character and open the train. Try to cancel the fuel request. You can't. Close the train and open remote view again. Now open the ...

Without a way to reproduce this, I don't think there's anything we can do.


It is pretty easy. There is a short window before player is "inserted" into the space platform where you can hit the "enter/exit vehicle" key and, well, exit the rocket pod that has the player in it. Hitting the key ...

I was working on a modulation/demodulation system years ago (read: before 1.0 even) to run over my central "rail" network. My rail bps also had big electric polls that brought power along with red and green circuit wires everywhere. I just never finished my mod/demod system due to complications ...

Well I figured out how the other BP worked pretty quick and it was really obvious what I was doing wrong. I really should have seen it sooner. The readers/demodulators are purposely offset by ONE id from the writers/modulators so as to account for the 1-tick propagation delay. *facepalm* I was ...

Sorry to ask this dumb question, but what exactly do you mean with "flickering"? Is it your clock (signal I) isn't in sync to the responses, and the values are only stable after the 3 tick delay?


I was really bad at trying to explain what is going on there. Yes, the output signals are out of ...

I'm sure someone has made this before. I started working on this a long long time ago probably before even factorio 1.0 but never finished it due to issues. Then when I saw a multi-channel for radar's for 2.1 suggestion elsewhere on this forum it made me want to finish this idea.

So I got started ...

With the release of Bob's mods 2.0 I went to update the mods today and start a bobmod 2.0 run.
Anyways, this is my current list of mods to update. 03-31-2025, 18-53-33.png


While playing with this bug I updated boblibrary and bobinserters already then restarted factorio. So that is why they aren't ...

I love that demolisher's are always active but what about some of these ideas?


1. Possible to significantly reduce the TTL on the SmokeWithTrigger when the demolisher is patrolling so there end up being far less SmokeWithTrigger to deal with in total? Theory being the demolisher is casually moving ...

Quick test: 4 MB/s just now. Wube servers probably are in Europe, so am I. Maybe lines to your part of the world are congested.


Definitely them. My download got canceled few minutes ago and trying to visit factorio.com/download to try again gave me a "Heroku" error page on 3 different ISPs ...
