Funnily enough, something for just this situation has been added recently. Check the toolbar for "hide tall entities".

As title. All the other types of belt have unique running sounds, but the turbo belt simply reuses the express transport belt sound, which is a bit disappointing. With many new sounds for minor things being added and many placeholder assets being ...

Just to be sure, are you aware that there is a hotkey you can set that you can press so that the hovered pipeline is highlighted? That way it shouldn't take multiple button presses/clicks.


It used to take none , which is hard to beat in terms of convenience. I used it very frequently to make ...

Gods, yes. All of my platform-making infrastructure is on Gleba, so this is the one thing that I'm really dreading updating to 2.1 for.

As far as I'm concerned, these buildings not having a clean ratio is a deliberate part of the challenge of setting up a nuclear reactor.

Warp modules are allowed on all recipes to begin with, so this shouldn't affect anything there.

This is not restricted to your normal placement range: it allows you to remotely manual build anywhere there's radar coverage.

More exact reproduction steps:
1. Stand within reach of a locomotive.
2. Open Remote View.

Thirding this. I have to manually go into the options to manually toggle the minimap every time I want to design a new space platform, or else I can't read electricity consumption on any of the machines.

You can actually use nuclear/steam power for your first ship. Just keep a stock of water barrels and fuel cells, then use heat exchangers to make steam for turbines.


There's no way to get liquid water on the platform without already having power. Melting ice requires a powered chemical plant ...

Fixing this would be effectively just making total raw not be a total raw(...)
I mean, that's not really a new problem. For example, Processing Units are considered "raw" because they have a fluid ingredient.

Spoilage comes from many sources, and those bacteria recipes are some of the worst ones ...

Explosive rockets have splash damage, so I thought they'd be better against big asteroids, especially when they come in multiples. Is that not right?

The splash damage doesn't matter against big single targets. And they're also basically three times as expensive, on account of needing triple the ...

Most people make yellow ammo on their ships and don't bother with piercing rounds. Red ammo costs more resources per damage dealt, needs more complicated logistics, and yellow ammo already does plenty of DPS to medium asteroids even without the infinite physical damage researches.

For the record, you can use Factoriopedia in the tech selection screen. So you're already allowed to look through it while the game is paused in singleplayer; just not in the actual pause menu, for some reason.

But the enemy contact...what's the allergy to adjusting Gleba enemy settings until one learns? The settings exist separately of Nauvis and I absolutely encourage new players to adjust biter settings all the way to peaceful mode if they need to learn with less pressure.


It's probably because, by ...

Yes, but now imagine you start running out of something, or as I mentioned directly here, you begin developing legendary modules, and they start consuming more of certain resources. Now you need additional supplies. The system you’re describing is far from efficient. It’s not maintenance-free at ...

Since it was on my mind, I decided to look, and... in addition to productivity modules, speed and efficiency modules also have no such diamond indicating that their effects are improved by quality.

You'll notice that the quality chance shows up without a diamond on ...

A cargo train is loaded with goods it cannot deliver, returns to the depot, and error handling is required.
A server error occurs, counters are miscalculated, and the game itself occasionally bugs out, requiring error state handling when cargo is delivered incorrectly.
A train is queued at a ...

Seconding this. The logistics request slider at least snaps to useful multiples of stack size: by contrast, I don't think I've ever used the signal value slider even once.

It definitely looks odd, yeah. I think it would make more sense for the wheels to default to being straight in such cases, instead of spontaneously disappearing. Ultimately, though, it's your decision.

Uh, no. Assembling machines do ignore negative signals. And so do asteroid collectors and turrets, for that matter.
