Agree that the larger poles should use cables. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they used cables and plates.

Really don't like the idea of boxing / unboxing cargo mod thing. Just seems too cheat like to me.

It's a pathing error. I noticed on my map there were a couple of locations (wide open nothing around them) spitters would get stuck and just stand there. Have not seen biters have the same issue.

When you place them it will extend as they have a small charge. Once that depletes the orange zone will go away. This may be what you are referring to and is expected behavior.

If you work with the assumption that some nests are just TOO big to face head on, a "sniper" variant of weapon makes a lot of sense. The rocket launcher would be well suited in this capacity, since the projectiles are fairly expensive and not terribly efficient otherwise. I have yet to ru...

Was on the 1.0.0 version of the mod. Updated to factorio 0.12.2 and had no issues upgrading to the latest version of the mod. Great mod, simple clean and no game functionality changes.

Early game I can easily empty a full wooden chest of belts. Late game I have blueprints that have thousands of items and can easily empty the size of chest you are talking about. Not to mention when you are processing 10k plus of specific items per min you would empty the chests you are talking abou...

At the pace you guys are killing bugs its going to be stabilized in no time.

Love the blueprint change.

Already noted and fixed for next release

Two shields is insta death versus any large pack of evolved sputters. Concept is interesting but I prefer research that would allow them to last longer.

I really like the autosave feature, but truly believe it's need to be high on the agenda to make it occur in the background. It does really disrupt the gameplay flow.

With that said, awesome update. Things are working much better.

I think you hit some kind of cap if the aliens send just as many green biters as they used to send blue. Like, they would be sending even more (and would have sent way more blues before the patch), except due to lag concerns the game ensures only so many are sent. So it would help with performance ...

Someone mentioned that bigger bitters were supposed to reduce the path finding employed by the aliens. Add bigger enemies and send less of them to improve the performance and keep the challenge. As one could say, no plan survives the contact with the enemy, in this case, the enemy wasn't informed t...

My thousands of electric furnaces powered by over one thousand steam engines says hi :D My self and many others only use coal for power as solar power is too easy. I use steam early game then when I fire up my massive smelting lines electric all day long. No way can I move the coal needed plus the r...

Splitters are also broke where it no longer merges lines. a 2nd line won't inject into the first. As original poster stated, the left side is always preferred. If you have two belts coming into a splitter the right side won't merge in if the left side is full. Even when you have good movement throug...

Shields appear to charge almost instantly.

To recreate, 3 shields, 3 fusion reactors. Walk out into biter world and watch them not be able to kill you as shields instant regen. Kinda fun but a tad OP.

Some days it sucks to have to work. Will be on as soon as I get out of here.

you've changed how inserters/belts work. If you didn't want stuff stuck on the end of a belt you created it so it only just reached the inserted emptying it. Now the inserter doesn't appear to see the belt unless its right in front of it... (it was probably a bug and should be fixed but it's going ...

take your time and get it right. Don't burn yourselves out. The game is in alpha and updates should only come when you think they are ready. Don't let us pressure you. Having said that ... can you hurry up please

Betting on ..... next week.
