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.

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 ...

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.

(Wall of text) It looks like you have never visited https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/ before. It's a nice place, i can recommend trying. Personally i love playing with mods of all kinds. Reddit is perhaps the best place to post your base screenshots and videos, get feedback, give feedback, learn n...

lol, reddit post upvotes as opinion barometers. Never change forums, never change. Feel free to downplay reddit community as much as you wish, just wanted to show it's a topic that is being raised time and time again and people agree. If you don't really care if it's 30 or 32, this is not a topic f...

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 ...

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...

I think you mean one line. C'mon it was never about wether it's possible with mods. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/GJBigPolesAlign https://mods.factorio.com/mod/chunk-sized-roboports Most people share their blueprints only if they are vanilla compatible. Quite a lot of rail blueprints are aligned to...

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.

I made some improvements to 2-lane, A, Compact, RHD blueprint.
It wasn't rotationally symmetric and it could be squeezed a little smaller still.

edit: Oops, 1 rail signal at the end is too much.. lemme fix that in a bit...
Done.

I reported it as a bug because other similar "bug/suggestion" report about not seeing progression on cancelled research was suggested by dev to be reported as bug instead, because it was an oversight. This is one of those issues that really stands out in the game as inconsistent with how smooth the ...

Here is 1 example of when i'm trying to drop blueprint in but i can't: bp.png There's this massive gray background but none of that is interactible. The spot i'm trying to drop on happens to be in an area of another blueprint so it won't, and only acceptable places are near that arrow and few pixels...

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.

Do you have any other mods running? I have never seen oil in the water. I have seen rubber trees in quite big number around the water. Definitely other mods, not ones that affect trees spawning though. "Water Ores" allows ores to spawn in water. It doesn't specifically add more of them like RSO, it...

Rubber trees seem to be a real problem, and they are needed for electric drills. I explored a large area and found none at all: https://i.imgur.com/1vSkeL4.jpg I suppose /editor is the solution. But should there be another way, like converting regular saplings through some process? After using edito...

I'm a bit torn with opinion. The new map colors look much better, but for objects it propably won't make a difference for me for either way. What i can say is that i use dark themes on websites and apps whenever it is an option. But i know visual clarity can be a good thing too, up to a point.

Shelves full of boxes looks like inventory bottleneck issue Need more "storage chests" or excess has nowhere to go.

Then it might be possible to write a bugfix mod, or is the train map size hardcoded or something?

Awesome pathfinder i must say. One little question about it though, because i heard the AAI vehicles use biter AI too. Can it be told to find a path that ignores trees and rocks, and just drive through them? How about other vehicles in the way, will they somehow semi-smartly still group together?
