Ehm ... is it me that I don't see any const comb there?

Still @ work. Will post a solution I use for a similar problem tomorrow morning.

Both working but still not expandable ... working on it

I havent tried this but it might work Make an outer perimeter like one gun turret every 25 blocks because i believe in order for a new base to spawn some biter must travel to that new location to build a base. Which is why you dont have random bases popping up in your factory. I'm sure, he / she so...

Complete your defense before raising the Pollution - Problem solved

Hey, does this happen to anyone else? I know that when pollution on the minimap flashes on and off, that means there's an unloaded enemy base there. Sometimes, I've loaded a chunk and walked through it, but an hour later an enemy base spawns out of nowhere. Can enemy bases spawn like this? Is this ...

Sorry, but I can't see all that "gets boring at some point" anymore :evil: If factorio bores you, it's not the game for you. It allows you to play it in countless ways, to be creative and to use your brain. Need restrictions? Define your own. Bored of midgame? Start building a new factory....

Some similar and more general discussion: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=7401&hilit=car+inventory Balancing of Capacities of Containers It should be way more general ;) If we discuss the balance between trunk sizes, we should also talk about a person, carrying 6000 steel b...

Quick question, can anyone tell me why this warning setup wouldnt flash up on my hud when out of power? Trying to build an early low power/fuel warning system. Got the smart inserter at the boiler to not insert when my backup coal storage kicks in, causing the setup to power down but still nothing ...

I think in 0.12, there is no more "red" and "green" networks, just one single network where you can read, compute, and write whatever you want. with one of the major added features of 0.12 : combinators. However, all this is wayyyyy too complicated for me, so I advise you tou ha...

If you're afraid of losing your autosaves: Just backup your autosaves as dedcicated save files

1 tile. Pumps move water from one side to the other side without allowing backflow. After that the normal water physics does the work and fluids flow from a location of less free space to a location with more free space. Pretty much same way pumps work in real life. Sorry, not completely true :!: T...

First of all , tnx for the reply.. Leaves me with one more question, during the day the steam engines turn off and only solar is being used so why is this reversed during the night?? I mean, how is this decided ??? It's just a simple priority ladder: 1. Solar Panels (during day) 2. Steam engines (i...

Any structure you like. Wooden chests are cheap if you're near the woods. I use iron chests, but that was just a habit because I started in a desert and wood was more expensive to me than iron for a while. Too much details: biters won't build new bases within 2 sectors (as the Radar calls them, the...

Killing them will beware you of being killed. No. 2: The more you kill, the more agressive / evolved the others get. If you can't deal with them AND the base, it doesn't make scence to attack. Research weaponry and armor before the next try. And when you destroy the base: Don't forget the victory po...

About the Biters; when I have a world set where they "never attack first", do they start attacking in waves once I attack them? Or is it just a case of whoever's in the area attacks me, and the rest continue not caring about me? I just want to know if I need to set up actual defenses befo...

I'm sorry if this has been posted or discussed elsewhere, but I couldn't find it through search. Do biters move faster on concrete same as the player? I can never get a good enough look at them to figure it out before my lasers melt them. Trying to decide if it's better to keep the outside of my wa...
