[1.1.63] Rounding error when supplying flamethrower turrets with oil from an assembly machine

Hi, when building small flamethrower turret outposts supplied with oil from an assembly machine, I noticed that sometimes, it would round the amount of the oil in the machine to xxx.9, e.g. 899.9, or 999.9 crude oil in stead of 900, or 1000 respectively. This sometimes corrects itself when oil is fl...

Option to show Storage Chest Filters

I would like to see an option to switch Alt Mode for Storage Chests to show item filters instead of contents

Refined flammables has always been boosting with fire dmamage in general, and Flamethrower turrets specifically.

Re: [posila] [0.17.1] Crash on load, DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED

I don't have the issue, but looking at the thread I thought it might be related to switching between iGPU and dedicated graphics on certain power plans, usually for laptops. Do you have experience with this? Unfortunately not a lot. I've had an issue with the laptop not switching graphics device wh...

Re: It can also be used to mine any kind of path, said no-one ever

Maybe the problem is that floor tiles should not be used to mine floor tiles in the first place.
We have a pickaxe for that. It just needs a toggle to select floor tiles instead of entities build above them.

Re: [0.17.34] Blurry image when walking, stutter, odd frametimes

Try disabling freesync/gsync/anything like that. I've only ever heard them causing problems when used with Factorio. Even though we don't do anything specific for them - all we do is tell the GPU driver "please use vsync" if you have the option enabled in graphics settings. To expand on w...

[Twinsen][0.17.36] Lowering Frequency on the map generator leads to excessively small starting area ore patches

Title says most of it. When reducing Frequency of ore in the map generator, starting ore patches are proportionally reduced in Richness.
That leads to excessively small starting ore patches when reducing both Richness and Frequency, but increasing Size.

Re: Add "Only 1 inbound train allowed at a time" checkbox for train stops

since no one will ever build 1 million trains with the same station in their schedule. I fully expect someone from this community to do that just to prove you wrong. On the topic at hand, does a station *know* how many inbound trains it has? What additional checks/calculations would be necessary? W...

Re: Feature request: Windowed fullscreen behavior

Factorio does use Fullscreen/Borderless window.
There's a graphics setting called 'Minimise on focus loss' that sets Factorio to be minimised regardless. It's something I haven't seen any other game use, maybe it's checked for you?

Re: [0.17.36] Refinery 'leaks' crude oil out of the input

As soon as you connect the second pipe network, it is confirmed as a crude oil pipe internally, since mixing fluids is no longer permitted. When I tried a similar setup, I was not able to connect the second pipe, which already had water in it, to a crude oil input. I'm not sure if this is intended w...

[0.17.36] Tooltip stuck in the map gen window

See attached image: A 100% tooltip got stuck in the Window when fiddling around with the bars and base settings. It would not disappear in that instance, but I don't exactly know how to reproduce it either. I *believe* it happened while it was still attached to the cursor when I opened the dropdown ...

Re: It can also be used to mine any kind of path

Afaik, picking up *anything* manually in the world of Factorio is called mining, for the consistency of language. It may sound odd at first, but it's correct.
When using bots, it would be called deconstruction. As such, you also *build* tiles, you don't *place* them.

Same thing was true for stone before the science changes in 0.17. I support the idea to make uranium be used in a science recipe.

Re: Early massive biter attack

I actually liked being attacked by 30 or 40 small biters as a first attack on a new map. I had to load the latest autosave, build an SMG and 2 turrets, which were subsequently lost during the attack, and actually fight for my life. Getting attacked by swarms of 2 or 4 or maybe 6 feels more like an a...

That would also mean having to make a male character, since it does not seem to have a defined gender.
Personally I'd love me some Barbie in a Bikini.

It's still very difficult to notice destroyed belt tiles under a fully backed up belt. Maybe this could also be addressed with the remnants update?
