The decider and arithmetic combinators have this beautiful section on the bottom showing 'input' and 'output' signals. This is great. Let's put it on anything connected to a circuit network. The simplest implementation would be to simply have the signals that normally are shown in the tooltip when m...

Glad I searched; had this exact request. <3

Proposed tooltip exact text: When use as input, this considers each input signal individually. In a decider combinator, it will output each signal that has completely passed all conditions. In an arithmetic combinator, if the output is not also an Each wildcard, the value of the chosen output signal...

The tooltip for the "Each" signal does not do a good job of explaining its behavior in the context of an arithmetic combinator. For example, each + 0 = (sum of all values), each + each = each * 2, etc. are not at all well explained. It also references the notion of 'passing conditions' in ...

Huh. That's really odd. I screwed up; apologies.

Pumps, Combinators, and other things that can have icons for circuit networks show icons exclusive to SA even when SA and its dependencies (from the mod menu) aren't enabled.

The best way to describe this is with an example. In the ItemPrototype, the properties icon/icon_size and icons are both conditionally optional -- that is, you need either icons or both icon and icon_size. I don't know of a great way to show that these are linked -- I think it is important to figure...

Thanks! I did a search and didn't find this thread.

TL;DR: Copy/Paste startup Resource slider settings the same way we copy/paste settings across machines in the game (ex: shift-right-click to copy the recipe from an assembler, and then using shift-left-click to paste it to other assemblers). Why? Some modpacks have so, so, so many resources, and it ...

I love the coming changes for the Mod window in 2.0. :) With that said, I've a few suggestions for the Manage tab: 1) Click-drag (de)activates groups of mods. As in, click on one to (un)check it, and drag across other checkboxes to similarily toggle them. This is how layers can be toggled in Photosh...

Though the implementation of the Quality system isn’t public, I wanted to put a request in for them because Now is likely when it’s easiest to implement them. I combined three related requests into one post because I believe that together, they are more than the sum of the parts. The first one is th...

Done. <3

# Galdoc's Manufacturing Mod link: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/galdocs-manufacturing This is a complexity-adding mod to add some delicious realism into Factorio. I have a devlog in which I go into great detail. The first one is at: https://youtu.be/igj0uCnbXK0 This is the Metalworking phase of the...

It is Based.

... on a guess.

Seeking wisdom, I spoke to an Epic Fish swimming in the remains of a Legendary Used-Up Uranium Fuel Cell (whose exploits are still revered to this day) and recieved Rare Advice. What if, instead of a one-size-fits-all approach to localizing the quality tiers, item prototypes could have individualize...

What is it: When crafting by hand or in an 'assembling-machine' of some sort, individual ingredients can be drawn from a pool. At simplest, this could be a list of ingredients that can be used -- for example, {"iron-plate", "steel-plate"}. Adding functionality, it might look like...

Hey! Glad you're back Kinnom. A friend of mine was playing through with PCP, and when he got to the stage of making Rocket Fuel, there was a missing recipe, rendering the game in ... complete ... able. Uncompleteable? Is this even a word? Anyway, that. He doesn't remember what the actual chemical wa...

Sounds to me you need to focus more on your ratios and scaling down, or the better option of learning the beauty of circuit networks. A well designed factory will naturally scale up or down to satisfy demand without wasting resources, basically operating 100% of the time without the need for stockp...

Quick suggestion! So, I've finished my 2nd playthrough, and I have found the same problem twice. Once I set up the basic refining chains for all six minerals for slagless sorting, I ran into the issue that I had warehouses full of ores I couldn't use. Nickel, Lead, Zinc, Aluminum, Tin ... I had *so*...
