Re: Friday Facts #375 - Quality

I feel like this thing would be slightly too RNG-based though I assume it could average things out. It's also that anything between lowest and highest tier seems to be something that'll be just skipped over. I would have preferred smaller auxiliary buildings of sorts that would enhance the main buil...

Good point. Guess my personal experience got in the way.

Main website has a problem: Most commonly clicked links

Problem with main Factorio website is that what people are going to click most frequently are "forums" and "wiki". Yet their seem out of place compared to rest of the website. Your eye naturally doesn't first glosses over these links as the other buttons are more visible and prom...

Re: Friday Facts #348 - The final GUI update

I personally like the new menu sound effects. Would be good to switch the volume.

Ability to ping a location using a minimap.

Currently, you can ping a location on full map or an area but cannot do so on a minimap. Is it possible to add that feature so you won't have to bring up full map all the time when something is in the range of your minimap but not in the range of your screen?

Re: Faster/more accessible logistic requests

Also, bringing up filter automatically is a good idea as you're probably going to bring up a filter anyway.

Re: Friday Facts #297 - New resource icons

I really like the random resource icons. I think an option to disable the random look could also be a good idea.

Re: [0.17X]More recipe options aside from "normal" and "expensive"

Speaking of products not seen in default recipes, what about also some lower-level intermediate products such as bolts as well?

Re: [0.17X]More recipe options aside from "normal" and "expensive"

I can only imagine how people would start adapting to different recipes per game.

Easy mode might also work in addition to complex ones.

Thumbs up for skeuomorphic user interface!

A.k.a. non-flat user interface. I miss that kind of interface. Non-flat buttons are somehow much more satisfying to click. Especially the arrows.

[0.17X]More recipe options aside from "normal" and "expensive"

Currently, "expensive" recipe option is just normal recipes that require more of the same resource. Don't get me wrong: it still can result in different bases. However, the difference is a bit too small. So let me try: Proposed additional modes: "Complex": Recipes require more di...

When you hover over that part of the menu, I don't hear any rattling sound. Everybody knows that you should hear rattle if you scratch against that kind of surface.

Re: Friday Facts #275 - 0.17 Science changes

The thing is, it would be nice if you could somehow use pretty much every item to enhance the amount of science you can get out of the pack, perhaps in some special enhancement building or advanced science lab. My idea is that every item (maybe except the most raw resources) would have some sort of ...

Re: Friday Facts #262 - Hello my name is: Compilatron

I would state that Compilatron would actually benefit for having no personality in order to still retain the feeling of isolation. So Compilatron would more be a tool than a character.

Re: Friday Facts #262 - Hello my name is: Compilatron

I kind of agree that that Compilatron takes away some of the mood of the game about being stranded alone.

Is it possible to alter Compilatron so that it doesn't feel like Compilatron is your companion? Something that makes you not get attached to it?
