Re: Friday Facts #198 - Rail segment visualisation

TBH: Don't know how many hours I spent chasing down signaling problems in Transport Tycoon. Actualy this is also the reason why I understood the signaling instantly in Factorio. When I read the Gameplay Help Forums with all those signaling problems I can just smile :P Looking forward for the Devs so...

Re: My trains keep trying to loop...

In terms of fixing this situation fast and easy, why don't you build one big roundabout rather than four small ones?

Re: Simple(st) Reactor Fuel control (without combinators)

No problem and thank you for your reply :)
I would have been realy ashamed if I had been wrong :lol:

Now to get back to the initial post: I need to say the solution of MBas is also very nice and simple.

Re: Simple(st) Reactor Fuel control (without combinators)

I think the confusion comes from the difference between running full time without tanks, and storing steam. The 1 reactor : 4 HeatEx : 7 turbines ratio is based on running full time, where all the generated heat is continuously used, and the steam topped up all the time. :? You missunderstand my po...

Re: Simple(st) Reactor Fuel control (without combinators)

Your Setup is quite good, it should work as intended. There is only one case where it may will fail: When your powerusage is close or plus 100% couldt'n it be possible that the steamtanks don't fill enough to give the Inserter C the signale to "reset" the fish? I did not realy messed arrou...

Re: Factorio Roadmap for 0.15 + 0.16

Factorio 0.16 Planned: Dirty mining. (Way to get more resources from mining posts at a cost of additional industry, logistics requirements and investment) We decided to not do this, the mining productivity research seems to be solving the problem. I need to say, I agree with the fact that dirty min...

Re: [0.15.4] [Rseding91] Map settings deviate from selected preset after leaving game

I would like to mention that I believe some of this behaviour is intended. When I start a new game it's more like this: - Choose preset - Change some settings of the preset - Start game - Realize: "Wow, that Oilpatch is way too big for my sense" - Leave game, going back to settings - Then ...

Re: [15.5] Can not unfollow failed achievement

I'm not quite sure about this workaround, but I belive following an achievment is set in general. So you should be able to start a new game and unfollow the (not failed yet) achievment and you're okay.

Re: Limit Mining Drills to a specific resource

When I have a start with 2 orepatches touching each other at the beginning of a game, I start to seperate them with the bürnerminer since they only mine 2x2 When i grow big and start building several electic mining drills, most orepatches are allready separated. Else I go over to filterinserters or ...

Re: Ability to destroy unneeded components of oil processing

This is why you set up circuit controlled automated oil cracking. If petro < light oil, crack light oil to petro. If light oil < heavy oil, crack heavy to light. Notice how the first post shows petrol as full? Can't crack petrol down, and if you're in a spot where you can't use the excess petrol th...

I know what you're talking about when it comes to chopping wood, it takes so much time, but I never realy used it for fuel... I mostly only chopchop when I need space to build, or to craft powerpoles in the beginning. First fuel is made with one burnerminer feeding the stonefurnace. Afterwards I go ...

Re: Logistics Robots to craft and upgrade chain

As far I understand you want to provide Level 1 items (like yellow belts) for the logisticnetwork, but also want to use it in the same assemblerchain to produce level 2 items (red belts in this example). In the same step you would like to recycle level 1 items you don't need anymore. Correct? Since ...

If you go for burnerpumps, it would make it way more complex since you need to deliver coal to every pump you use.
