Re: Friday Facts #360 - 1.0 is here!

August 14, 19XX, I entered this world. Many years later, receiving the BEST birthday present ever. Many thanks to the devs and community for all the hard work, patience, and effort. The game has been an inspiration.

Re: Friday Facts #295 - New design for the chemical plant

Why do people always think chemical plants are so dirty!? 99.9% of the time the only thing released is water vapor from a cooling tower. Any other waste is thermally decomposed in a flare system. Why do you have to add smoke? Even from a financial perspective, no one wants to waste chemicals. But p...

Loving the update news!!! The new graphics on the accumulator are sparky! And, THANX SOOOO MUCH for the upgrade on map generation GUI...this is going to improve things a hell of alot.

Re: Friday Facts #275 - 0.17 Science changes

24 seconds for "chemical science pack"s are too much. Considering you get 3 out of "Production science pack"s and "Utility science pack"s and both only take 21 seconds. I think you should reduce it at least by 4 seconds, but it's only my opinion. 100% behind this post....

Re: Friday Facts #255 - Construction tools

What annoys me is how they're butchering upgrade planner. Now it will not automatically take from player inventory, according to this. And it looks like you have to have construction bots and personal roboport for it? BOGUS - this was the second greatest feature of UP is that you didn't need bots fo...

Re: Friday Facts #240 - Factorio-data & Fast pipe replace

I will add my "huzzah!" to the underground pipes fast-replace. It's an idea who's time has come. I see a lot of people grumbling about fast-replace on belts, but let's face it: that's a *personal* control issue. Don't be so reckless with the mouse! Sure, you'll make mistakes, but that's th...

Re: Changing tree density in .16

Toggling the settings in the "Terrain" menu has a significant effect on the density of trees. I normally go with "Very Low" and "Small" settings, and have hardly ever encountered the dreaded impassible forest. In fact, not once! Try experimenting with it.

BIG MISTAKE, especially in terms of the movement bonus! Concrete is 150% faster than ground, and on slow ground like sand the need is absolute! Don't fear the 'crete!

Re: Friday Facts #214 - Concrete rendering

The new render looks AMAZING!! Love, just *love* that garden design at the end! Gives the game a "oh yeah, we live here too and have to look at this stuff every day, so why not make it look nice" dimension. The new look isn't realistic (as many, many have pointed out) but it's beautiful - ...

While I am here, let me say that the upgrades to the visuals is terrific, and I love the way the ores now "pop". I've been playing for only two years so I still consider myself "new", but this seems to me to be a simple idea: why do we have to press ALT? Why wouldn't the default ...
