Satisfaction: 0/100 On-the-way: 0 Logistic Storage: 1000 I'm inclined to think that this is a mod issue as I haven't experienced behaviors like that before. It's actually not a bug and happens with the vanilla game. The 1000 items in logistic storage are in buffer chests, and so the bots aren't wil...

I would disagree with your assessments. Alt+F4 (on Windows) is a built in and known feature across all applications. Someone changing their keybindings such that they can run into situations where they "accidentally" press Alt and F4 at the same time is therefore their own doing. The fact...

Well, there were 11 solar panels that were missing material, and had been for days as I didn't care. I've never seen the bots hover like that before when they don't have materials though. Also, it looks like there were only 3 bots construction bots hovering, judging by the bot counts, though I don't...

Re: player changing binding keys: then that’s their own fault and they’ve set themselves up for failure, there. One could argue that I'm setting myself up for failure by using the X in the corner of the technology menu rather than just pressing escape. However, the developers obviously intended the...

I made a video: hoverbot.mp4 I wish I had included the cursor since without it, it's not obvious when I'm mining the bot, but basically the game always wants a hovering bot it seems. If I mine the hovering bot, a new one pops out of the roboport and just hovers above it. If I place a new bot, the on...

If there are others that you think aren't working as they should, I'd be interested to know which ones, either here or on the SE discord. I think it was actually just the navsat that did it to me. If you press escape when it is open, it just brings up the game's escape menu. If you press N while it...

Yet another derailed forum post. Dead-simple request, then someone confuses the issue by assuming the intention of the OP is to avoid losing game data, allowing the idea to be rejected with "it won't let you quit so easily if there isn't a recent save." Then someone else brings up Alt-F4. ...

You had the mod upload page open for more than one hour

Probably. I still had the page open so I tried again and got the same error message, so I opened a new copy in a new tab and submitted it there, which worked fine.

If case something more specific is needed:

I'm using Vivaldi. The forum is letting me upload again so here's a screenshot of the error:

There's a few error messages on the page: Status: Invalid Error: Unknown error (JS2) Error information: Error: Network Error Here's the mod I'm trying to upload, which I can't upload as an attachment because "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached." https://www.ecstaticlyrics.c...

It's not causing any issues on my test map. The power network looks exactly like usual, and the switch-based flip dots are the same color as the ordinary lamps, so there's no visible difference at all. ...which makes sense since there's no copper wires attached to them, so they're not really doing a...

Thanks. I got it to work.

Hmm, probably no video player here, but they move now. flipdot.mp4 I had to make them out of power switches instead of lights. So they also use no power, come in only one color, and you can use them to connect two separate power networks. However, the animation is cool and the sound that the power s...

So in the only Factorio modding tutorial that seems to exist, they make a new armor like this: local fireArmor = table.deepcopy(data.raw["armor"]["heavy-armor"]) This only seems to work with armor though. At first I tried changing it to this: local flip_dot = table.deepcopy(data....

I have to agree with those changes though. The game was originally just way too dark. I actually wrote a program to brighten the game's graphics and made a post about it a few years ago: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=58290 Here's two before-and-after pictures: https://imgur.com...

OK, so I made a crappy mod. Here's how it looks, compared to ordinary lamps set to yellow, the most-readable color they have: flipdot_day.png Above is day, below is night. Note that they don't light up so there are white lights nearby to make it visible. flipdot_night.png IDK if I care to polish it,...

Let me try to rephrase (a slightly altered because it uses the original 20% charge point) the algorithm reusing functionality already in the game where possible: 1) When a target it set for the robot calculate distance to the target and distance the bot can travel 2) if "can travel" < &qu...

I think that no matter how much we think our solutions are "simpler" than what's currently implemented, and how we think it should be lighter computationally wise, in reality, what we suggest always add overhead when compared to what's ingame now. IDK about that, because how I'm imagining...

Do you have a source for this? I'd say they simply home in on the destination, calculated each tick, and once reaching low charge divert to a roboport (~ step 3 & 4). I think you may be right actually. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to deal with moving targets nor, as you mention, would enemie...
