This, among a couple of other games i'm currently playing(COH2, farming sim15) are so time consuming that I'm thinking I need another whole lifetime just to cover all my gaming fun. I still have to fit in my actual fulltime job and social life..lol...Why do we have to sleep, I could really use those...

There are never enough alien artifacts for the number of purple flasks you need, right? This leaves a situation where you have to go show the bitey little bleeders who's boss on an increasingly frequent basis, and that can get a little repetitive. Especially if you take on the aliens quite slowly. ...

Had exactly the same problem last night with a couple of mates. I've already posted this in another topic so sorry if i'm duplicating but this seems to have more traffic. Server messages as the third person tried to join. Hope this helps Devs. 34503.284044 Info C:\Factorio\src\Net/MultiplayerManager...

Well I'm glad to hear some folk have managed it with success. As you say, it may be something to do with one of the guys who was joining. He's got shared/dodgy internet sometimes. Heres some debug info for the devs or anyone that can understand it, me not being one of those ;) 34503.284044 Info C:\F...

Me and my mates have been having the same problem tonight. Works perfectly with 2 players but as soon as another joins, the second player(not the host) gets kicked from the game. We've tried over a VPN also so don't think it's a port issue. Lots have been opened in preparation. Anyone managed to pla...

Who needs grades?!

This game is so much more important!!

*Crosses every limb possible*

Looks great! Thanks for continuing updates guys. We really appreciate it!
So excited for multi and have 2 other mates just waiting for it too release so we can come back to this great game

Small piece of advice, you badly need new mic's. I could barely make out half of what you said

As ssilk has stated, once multi comes out you'll see the forums explode with activity.

That's what I'm waiting for anyway & I have 2 mates with the game that are also waiting for multi, ready to go!

Well, first thing, Do you see any parts that don't look good, that's too complex or doesn't represent correctly it's functionality ? I've some parts that no as good as I would : Boilers : The shape is not good for me, it don't represent pipe connectivity. I would like something in the idea of the c...

I've actually seen the way DerivePI does it and I really like it, search on the forum for the topics he made. And finally I really would like to see your designs. Well your designs look pretty good for being an amateur ;) I'll see if I can dig them out. Been a while since I've played Factorio as I'...

A fellow CAD technician I see?(from the drainage drawing), it's nice to see you putting your work skills to your gaming time.

I do the same thing but I've actually drawn bases fully in CAD. Not quite the same thing but fun none the less.

May give this a shot sometime!

Yeh the new player model looks really amazing.

Really has that survivalist rustic look.

Can't wait for multiplayer!

I tend to build everything in a one large base up to the point of producing advanced circuits & Blue research. For everything above that I usually use logistic robots as they will be unlocked by then + most these items require some form of oil which isn't usually right beside my main base. I've ...

I'd be interested to know your spawn generation settings.

This may make things too easy having a patch that big! lol..

Ric, some of us don't make the base just to win the game, some of us make huge bases. And i mean huge. But yeah, at that point, you have expanded so much that for me, it is not really an issue. But i have about 100-120 depleted oils right now. Yeh, I can't play a single play-though much longer than...

lol...you just answered your own question

I've seen a few topics on this now. What are you guys donig in order to have a lack of oil?! lol...really don't find I need too much or there is always plenty around the map to use. Say 16-20 fields(which can usually be found in 3-4 patches) will get me from day1 all the way through to completion. W...

Not sure if it helps or hurts the arguement, but I do daily things in base 2... like chewing food... I also used to get 2-dollar bills from the bank every so often. It confused a lot of cashiers who had to call over their managers. You're just odd :P I can't believe this topic is still going...lol..

Happy with the new change. 10's makes sense. Although it does mean more runs as the stacks are naturally smaller(50/64, 100/128).

No big deal though
