Another 'set recipe' setup

Hi everyone!

I wanted to do something with 'set recipe' and to make production even more automated. The key reason being that the easiest way to set up a new planet is not to fetch things, but to make them in space. At least the basic material, but it applies to more than that I suppose. I was ...

Re: A slider to multipy values in a logistics request


you can change without typing how many ingredient you want in the chest while keeping the ratio nice !


Ok, I understand what you mean, but I tried this: I tried entering 0.1 and it looks like it automatically converts float to in by dropping everything behind the decimal.

2.8 and 2.3 -> 2 ...

Re: A slider to multipy values in a logistics request




You can use blueprints, if you are attempting to win under 40 hours, you can have a constant combinators with the receipes in them , saved in a blueprint, importing it in a game would import all the groups and their custom limits.


Hm, that is true, I can use blueprints, but if I use ...

Re: A slider to multipy values in a logistics request

Ok, so the multiplier is already in there, that's even better!

But I still have to open 2 text/number input fields and put stuff there... every time I want to change things.

So I guess, it's 50% already done and that would make it even easier to add a slider :) ;)

As another note, if that's ...

A slider to multipy values in a logistics request

TL;DR
Changing the composition of a request setup requires a lot of typing in numbers, but the ratios usually stay the same, so it would make sense to have a "multiplier" slider that can adjust the contents of such a group.

What?

I would something like the slider UI that is already present in ...

Re: I beat space age! (long+opinions+feedback)

Timer circuits can be built with the circuit system provided in game

I saw that. Or rather, I saw this one https://wiki.factorio.com/File:Timer.png . Something about it seemed off. It seems too quick, it's clearly not outputting seconds and I would hate to build my circuit clock wrong and the ...

I beat space age! (long+opinions+feedback)

:danger: SPOILERS!! (obviously) :danger:

Overall a definite 9/10, I'm here because of the small difference to perfection and because most "complaints" I have are just a few balancing issues (that maybe can be solved in 2.1 or something?) Except Aquilo.

The complaints are definitely complaints ...

Re: Quality big poles should be longer

I'm going to bump this, but I actually noticed something different.

The uncommon power medium power poles get a 9x9 area, which is *just barely* enought to connect 16 solar cells, which is a great upgrade (maybe disproportionally good) from the regular mediums which only connect 6.

Which mean you ...

Re: Rocket launching would greatly benefit from finer and more flexible control options.

I think I will make a more detailed post later, but it should really not be too much to ask, that the logistics system can fulfill a request we already have set up to fill a rocket perfectly. (if all items are available).

E.g. a rocket takes "A" and "B" rocket capacity 100 each, and we set a ...
