I don't like this idea. Imo you don't need a "factory" building Make your production line, put stone walls around, put input chests, done there you have your factory Yeah, you need to care about wiring, but thats like half the point of the game imo :P Yeah you can't "compact" it ...

Steam has an early access section now, maybe something for Factorio to look at?

eidt: maybe better in "Spread the word" section but wasn't sure :3 anyway can be moved there i guess

Hm but you can already do that with filter inserters pretty much?

A few ideas I'd had over the past 11 hours of gameplay: More intelligent creepers. Right now they pretty much "are". They don't have a reason to be where they are, they don't really have a thing to do there, they don't do anything but attack you in idiotically large waves and kill themsel...

BTW: AFAIK Handbrakes in trains aren't powerful and used only for holding the train still when "parked" Also they have special pieces of metal that are put on the rails before and after the car. Not that I'm all knowledgeable but i think the main use for handbrakes in cars it to keep them...

We clearly need more uses for stone :p

can't search for "stone" either D:

@ Smart Inserters: it works for fine amounts too; if you need 120, set it to 200 and connect another chest you stick 80 into ^^

It is feature, not a bug, what else would you do with those items? You cant leave them there (they would block the belt), you don't want to loose them, and you don't want to move them randomly somwhere. Putting it in the player inventory seems like the best solution (It is the same when you put som...

So that's why the raw ores get in my inventory even though I didn't mine any furnaces? I would still prefer that to be fixed. Well I guess they made it like that because if you had a belt that turn to the side and you made it point straight, you'd have items clocking up the lanes since they'd not n...

oh they do? gotta test that

So ya, thats a bug then ^^

Hey there,

notcied when i have items on a conveyor belt and rotate it once or twice quickly, the items on it seem to disappear?

Hmm a) does the inserter have power? b) show a screenshot maybe, might be easier to help ^^ c) make sure the inserter arrows point toward the boiler d) if you're only just starting up you'd usually have to throw 1 or 2 coal into the boiler to get it running so the inserter can get power (only if you...

Suicidally running up against gun turrets to get murdered by them isn't insane? :p

Well yeah but I haven't abandoned my house just cause I leave it for a couple hours ^^ And by the state you find it in, it looks like it has been abandoned a couple seconds ago :p That is indeed wrong. But does it say "abandoned" in there? But I thought I was supposed to be a follow up to...

Join PHPBB's development team and develop an intelligent search that implements an artificial AI then. Not much can be done about it. Uh? Not sure why you'd need an artificial AI Its either a blacklist of words or a given "max search results" thingy, given the size of this forum so far I ...

would be nice if we could get those :3

Yeah, i find the search annoyingly restrictive, e.g. i can't search "steam" or "wiki" because apparently those words are "too common"?

is just a tutorial in a game, details dont matter much Yep. Abandoned means no one is around, because they left. Most likely it was made by aliens or other survivors of the crash that died. Well yeah but I haven't abandoned my house just cause I leave it for a couple hours ^^ And by the state you f...
