Re: LTN - Logistic train network requester help

Filter can only be positive for inserters. So at least you need to use an arithmetic comb. and set it to EACH * -1. I don't use even something like that. If you go in the mod options and toggle off the "Finish loading", it will only load in as many items as the request is, not fill the ca...

Re: Weird pathing behavior

Some of those 1-4-1 trains are not actually 2-way trains. It matters which way you place the locomotives, using R key when placing them down.

Re: LTN - Logistic train network requester help

What condition on the inserter and what signal are they receiving? You can see signals by connecting the wire to a powerpole. In simplest requester station for LTN you don't need to wire inserters at all though. Sounds complicated to me :roll: Basically you always want to empty the train entirely on...

[0.18.3] Endless pumping animation

I don't know how this happened, but this 1 pump just doesn't want to stop pumping. I have replaced the pump and both sides pipes but it still kept doing it. All other pumps on the map will stop when either target goes full or input dries. But now this "special" pump doesn't even have an ou...

Re: Friday Facts #329 - Campaign reassessment

I would also recommend a later map or more that goes beyond the rocket launch. Using power armors, dealing with behemoths, artillery, infinite sciences... Even the slower players would get a taste of the endgame and know what waits there.

Re: Friday Facts #329 - Campaign reassessment

My opinion on the campaign is, have both 1 and 2! Perhaps the 2 could arrive first but the game is very much lacking in campaign/premade scenarios. Both styles would be very welcome. You could learn some things from 1 that you don't from the other and vice versa. That's really not a lot to ask from ...

Re: Friday Facts #325 - New Explosions and Particles

One thing I think is wrong in provided gifs is that particles spread of dying enemyes are biased toward vertical axis (very noticable with big worm). I noticed this with the rail destruction. While it looks really nice, being destroyed with bullets doesn't intuitively felt make a high explosion if ...

You'd need more than 800k people to agree with you to have a majority. Do you see why I find your "reddit proof for majority" hilarious?
That's not how gallup's work. Statistically very small sample is enough to give an idea of what is generally acceptable or atrocious.

Re: Increase Big Electric Pole Wire Reach to 32 to = Chunk Size

Fact is you're asking for something to be changed to suit your playstyle. Nothing wrong with that, and as the devs has expressed they disagree with your reasoning, nothing wrong with that either. There's nothing stopping you changing it, and the point there is, nothing is stopping you from playing ...

Re: Increase Big Electric Pole Wire Reach to 32 to = Chunk Size

There's no reason to increase the wire reach just because the chunk size is 32. It has no gameplay advantage of disadvantage to be 32 vs 30. If nobody ever told you chunk size was 32x32 then you wouldn't even know it was a thing. Just ignore the fact chunks exist and build as you want. It doesn't c...

Re: Increase Big Electric Pole Wire Reach to 32 to = Chunk Size

Should be default definitely! We want to start making and sharing blueprints with them, so if they require mod they are no longer compatible with vanilla.

all the leech function does is allow a burner inserter to take fuel out of a assembler/furnace to feed its self if its set to pull items out from that entity
But it will only ever pull fuel from the input side of inserter. If it puts in an assembler that already has coal in, it can't take it out.
