I have googled a lot to see what the demand is for infinite productivity research for solar panels and accumulators. I could not find a single thread.
I ...

Is it still happening? Do you have the log from the time it happened?

I have not encountered the issue anymore, and the game only saves the current game and precious game log as far as I know, so unfortunately I can not look that far back.

Anyway, I consider this issue resolved. I will keep you ...

When clicking "Browse public games" it takes a while to load the data. I have fast internet, so it's not my home connection speed.
After a short while the box where the servers should be listed is spammed with a JSON error.

Download Failed: Couldn't parse the response as JSON.

I don't see "duplicate" mods as a problem, for two reasons.
First, they are not duplicates. They may serve the same purpose, but they are coded differently.
Second, it should be okay for people to think; "I like this mod, but I think I can make it better in terms of speed and usability", which comes ...

Is solar panel power and accumulator storage also included in the endless research?

Alright, how do I get the code for it? I've seen it on other threads as well. Do I need a mod for it or is it some hidden feature in game?

Hello,

I have seen some Module setups that were round, and worked with robots a lot. This wasn't fit for me since I wanted to connect it to the bus.
So I came up with this design. You only need robots for delivering the alien artifacts and for picking up the modules.

I actually like this mod portal. With just forum threads it was hard to look for mods. Older ones or the ones that didn't get much discussion often got burried on later pages. With the new portal you can sort on recently updated, alphabetical order, most downloaded and even search categories ...

Hello,

I can't seem to view the full sizes of images on the mods website. Clicking the attached thumbnails won't open a lightbox or a full version of the picture. It does nothing at all, even though the cursor goes to a pointer and a yellow edge is brought around the thumbnail which makes you ...

When I mine ore deposits I have to mine them 'away' as fast as possible. I've started a new world with mods, not vanilla anymore. These mods give a lot of upgraded solar structures, which is nice.

:D Sorry, couldn't resist. :)

Maybe it helps to see the dimensions you need to think.

Ah, and before someone asks: I don't know exactly, how much power this produces, cause ...

I don't understand the purpose of so many roboports, but they are energy hogs as well. Using drones instead of conveyors uses a deceptively large amount of energy.

I like them because they automatically balance the input over every requester chest.

In conclusion, keep building solar. Eventually ...

I have around 45k solars in my current map. The thing is you need to blueprint it, And when you get far away from the production of solars/accus, you have to start loading them into a train and bring them out closer so blueprints dont expire. :)

Yeah I had this problem as well, so I manually set ...

Dependencies listed with ? are optional - no need to grab them for mod to work.

ohhhh okay, didn't know the one prefixed with a question mark were optional. Thanks

If you want a mod that gives you better solar panels: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=120&t=23899
It gives you recipes for better solar panels and accumulators. To make mark 2 solar panels you need 5 normal solar panels +some more stuff for a solar panel that gives 4 times as much. Same ...

Hello,

I wanted to use Bob's power mod, however, it appeared I needed certain metals and other mods for it to work properly, so I installed those as well, but due to all the dependencies I just installed the whole mod pack.
Now this is where the problem starts. When I started up my game and checked ...

Hello all,

I've built a very large solar field, and it's still under construction as it needs to expand each day to keep up with the increased energy usage. How do I fix this? I was thinking of mods that would multiply the power output by something like 2.
ps. I do not prefer to use steam engines ...

Code: Select all

/c game.local_player.force.ghost_time_to_live = 3600 * 60

3600 is the number of seconds (3600 = 1 hour), 60 is the amount of ticks/second and is constant.

Thanks mate!

Hello all,


I wanted to know if it is possible to set the lifetime of ghost buildings. With a setting or in-game command.

I've found a command, but it seems to be outdated as it gives me the error that LuaForce does not contain a key called ghosttimetolive.
/c game.player.force.ghosttimetolive ...
