Re: [Question] Music copyrights in mods
> For starter it violates the term of services of the mod portal which says Hmmm. But there are Starcraft mods out there too. BUT, if I was gonna upload a copyrighted music album, it definitely wouldn't be a public mod database. It'd be private friends only thing. Fair use covers small clips (seinfe...

Re: Railguns were a disappointment
I think i'm going to experiment with modding demolishers to either he surrounded by pods of smaller demolishers, or split into smaller ones when you shoot them. Maybe even, shooting one in the mid segment splits it into two like a crazed centipede. So if you're going to kill them, you should have ot...

Do turrets respect ammo_type->cooldown_modifier and range_modifier?
I've seen these fields used for nuke rockets but it appears, they have no effect when fired from turrets. Is this a bug, my mistake, or by-design? docs: https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/types/AmmoType.html#range_modifier I was trying to have an ammo type that would have extended range for the mor...

Railguns were a disappointment
I haven't used them for asteroids, so this is separate from that. And I know, this is my subjective experience BUT: I had big demolishers on Vulcanus. I transport railguns down to try them out. I put down like 8 (3 rare, 2 uncommon). Railgun research is practically free at this point in the game so ...

Re: Timestamps on production?
Sorry I really should have been more clear I meant buildings (belts, assemblers, etc), not items!

Timestamps on production?
It's really cool to see who placed an item and to see production charts. It would be really nice if the: last user: katastic field also included a timestamp of how many hours ago it was created. I love finding old stuff and going "how long ago did we do that???" and likewise, seeing someth...

Impossible cargo wait condition
Minor problem but: Setting cargo to "less than" zero shouldn't be possible since it's impossible to have negative inventory (...right...?)
This will silently fail, and if you just add a cargo criteria and set it to zero, this is the default case:

Qualtiy + Modules is visually, poorly distinquished.
You've got Quality 1, Quality 2, Quality 3. And they have more if there's more red dots. But then you've got Quality 1 (uncommon), one red dot, two green dots. Quality 3 (uncommon). three red dots, two green dots. Quality 1 (rare), 1 red dot, four purple dots. It's definitely not easy / nature to st...

Let module selector ghost mode show AVIALABLE modules
This problem isn't caused by quality, but it explodes the second quality enters the game: the module selection becomes a nightmare. Every time you remotely build something (or even to an extent in person) you have to quit back out, consult logistics to see what actual modules of what rarity, are ava...
