Yes and yes. Sorry for the shitpost. My sample size for the blue circuits was way too small. And a closer look at my longer loops shows that they did not all stop on lack of the same ingredient. I should know better than to post from memory - I'd like to blame it on tiredness if I may do so.

Thanks for the report however I do not believe there is any bug here as I have not seen anyone show a deterministic issue with specific recycling recipes over long periods of test cycles. Random is random, and people interpret that in the short term as unbalanced.

Thank you very much for the べると⇔ベルト feature (albeit I have to admit in 150h of playing Japanese Space Age I've - in retrospect oddly - never missed it). After years of default-English I am very very happy with the Japanese experience. The translation quality is extremely high compared to other ...

My library uses exactly the same abbroach as deadlock says (including unregister when not in use) because I was also sorely missing it. Takes the target tick, method name and (a table of) paramters (without paramters it would be useless imho because of cases where the same handler happens multiple ...

I'm aware of the issue and it's something I know all too well, as I play on multiple consoles.

Good to know. I know it's a complicated issue and difficult to please everyone.


For the PC and Steam Deck, the plan is to use the Xbox layout, as this is what appears to be standard

@Twinsen

As you seemed to care about the Asian translations, are you going to have a controller layout dialogue?

I'm talking about the regionally-dependand standard use and swapping of X/Y and A/B buttons. I'm used to the Japanese layout (physical ...

Why it does not have pollution though I dont know,


In DSP you're just a robot sent to strip-mine a bunch of planets. Nobody is going to live on those planets, so pollution is a non-issue. Also the story seems to suggests that mankind lives in a matroshka-brain without a biological body, so even ...

Thanks for the clarification (and Dave for posting the correction request). Being somewhat unexperienced with train related stuff I simply wasn't sure - given the doc - if the observed behavior is intentional and supported or mere coincidence.

An interesting read.

Aha! No wonder my searching for "signal" didn't find it :).

Hm, the doc for signal_state says

LuaGuiElement.add{index=} was added to allow out-of-order creation of elements. Allows limited re-ordering by destroy/recreating only some elements instead of all. I suspect that "write support for index ...

I'd like to know if it's possible to make a mod to stop a manually controlled train if the signal isn't green? Could anyone help with that?


Possible? Yes. Easy? No. I quickly hacked a proof-of-concept together but it's very crude. It'll stop single-direction forward driving manual (Edit: Oops ...

Slightly more complicated if it's a building that's still needed otherwise (to make something else). It's also possible for a mod/scenario to catch the build event for the building you don't want and then destroy the building.

Is your screen resolution less than 1920x1080, and/or you have interface scale set to something else than 100%?

I'd rather see an isometric view than hexagonal tiles. Imagine the possibilities if you had the ability to edit the terrain and build underground like you can in Rollercoaster Tycoon.


Imagine the possibilities of having to actually manage several different levels of underground belts and pipes ...

You're forgetting heat pipes and unfuled reactors as a heat-storage method. They are lossless but not directly measurable. Personally I've never seen a large scale design using this approach but I'm sure they must be out there.

Btw, on the topic of "hired modders": As far as I have seen on the forum, Wube hired two modders.


Also Bilka. Would be interesting to know who initiated that process.


Don't forget Klonan :)


For some reason I always assumed Klonan went the other way round. Was Klonan hired before or ...

Thinking of the original 2D GTA games makes me wonder if the factorio engine would be suitable to relicense to other studios. Displaying a few buildings, explosions and textboxes already works :p.
