This remains a relevant issue for anyone using the editor's speedup, regardless of save file size.

I know people like me developing/testing new designs in fresh files, since this has real benefits over testing in a megabase, where the simulation speed is massively reduced by the concurrent stuff ...

I like the idea of having randomized demolisher variants.

But it is pretty easy to kill small and medium demolishers with only a block of gun turrets and red ammo;
when being more progressed these are taken down with no expense.

What about introducing a fourth tier, like Behemoth (or Huge ...

The autosave is currently tied to game ticks. While this works for normal play, it causes critical issues when using high tick rates (eg. 64x speed using the editor):


performance bottleneck: reduces UPS rate by at least 60%. I tested a 1.5MB map using PCIe 4.0 NVMe and 64x tick rate: 30 game ...

I think I know what is going on and is easy to reproduce, same behaviour in 2.0.73.

If the time is paused but the game unpaused, the auto save functionality is still active and running. There is no "pause game" button in the editor time menu but a "pause time" button, therefore I think the wording ...

Beforehand:

I know that similar requests on the same topic have been made (eg. https://forums.factorio.com/120844),
where only the mechanics were described but never any downsides or issues other than the unexpected behaviour.

I am opening this report here to examine the real-world consequences ...

TL;DR:

value returned by "read orbital request" is useless, orbital request aligned to custom or default (which applies) rocket capacity would make sense, but that cannot be determined on the planet. "rocket capacity" calculation of the "selector combinator" yields inapplicable values.

Setup of the logistic network:

- 40 construction robots (with +3 cargo capacity bonus)
- approx. 10k tiles to be laid (ghosts placed), some of them already built
- tile provider chest has insertion limit of 500

The number of missing resources is way off and constantly changing, never showing a ...

I noticed some modded and unmodded technologies have their preceding technologies shown with shifts in the tree.

See the picture (from a factorio map with no mods other than the official space age):

Notice the shift above the blue science that has no obvious reason ...

As of 2.0.73 this is still an issue and quite annoying when transport lines (belts) get erroneously connected where they shouldn't, causing unexpected item mixing.

It's not clear to me whether this issue is tracked anywhere as an open bug.

Player inventory is full. One can still pick items out of building into the player's hand to place it somewhere else.

When trying to pick fuel out of the train, two unexpected things happen:

When manually dragging belts over existing underground belt ghosts, the entry underground belt is jumped over / ignored while the exit underground belt is being built.

Now I see this might qualify better as feature request than bug...

How would some solution be like when [Q]-ing a signal, the player gets a new intermediate item type that resolves to:
- to the original [Q]-ed item if placed into a signal slot
- otherwise unchanged behaviour, e.g.:

When trying to place same quality production building over an existing one, the rotation cannot be changed (except for e.g. belts).

When placing better quality buildings over them (e.g. upgrading chemical plants), the building might get rotated, that might break up the existing connections, e.g. in ...

Reproducibly even after restarting the game, the minimap in the remote viewer is completely black when being on fulgora.
It works as expected on Nauvis and space platforms.

Expected to be able to build ghost over it at least when forced overbuilding.

I mostly set the blueprint icon based on the recipes used (otherwise based on the products produced) - I think this makes sense and many people do this. Two blueprints showing the default assembler icon cannot be distinguished easily.

When selecting the blueprint icons, it would be nice to have the ...

opposed to many other requests, this should be quite easy to implement without real downsides, I think - one could either show this when turret coverage is on or create a new toggle switch.

I moved away from using setups like that - the very few times I have done this again, I could not observe this behaviour anymore, but since it happened only rarely, I cannot fully confirm the issue is gone. I would consider closing this issue and reopening if anyone observes this again.

seems to be the same issue as reported here 121577 in the threads
