Is this going to be in 0.17. It has been requested for a long time and it's a great feature in line with the motivation of the game of automation.

No.

Any update on this? Is this going to be fixed in 0.17?

It's already a thing since 0.16.0.

You seem to be going over random posts from 2016 asking if they're going to be in 0.17 like you haven't even played 0.16 where most of them are already in 0.16.

great, thanks.

Is that checkbox going to be remembered along with all the other checkboxes with the hopefully added feature of re-taking blueprints and keeping their icons, names, and checkboxes?

Not likely.

Can you fix this please

Changing how that works has significant performance implications and isn't likely to ever happen.

Any update on implementing setting recipes on factories even if not researched in 0.17? Obviously the factories wouldn't actually make the recipe, but it would have the recipe set for the when the research is done, it will start producing it. No. Setting a recipe in a machine is the same as craftin...

I hope it's automatic and not expecting you to set the setting manually. It is. It prompts on joining stating your settings are different and asks if you want to sync yours with the server. If you're instead getting "mod contents are different" then somebody is using mod settings wrong and conditio...

There are a few reasons why it's limited to 5 maximum: The filters are implemented as an array on the Inserter entity. That means that when the inserter is allocated the filters are in the same memory block as the inserter. In the base game this gives a large performance boost from not having to go ...

You can set the size in the config file.

You do actually have a few component elements where appropriate. Most of the non-mobile power consuming entities just have an energy_source= tag, and you can specify which type they use. Boilers for example can run from heat, burner or electric. and 0.17 introduces fluid and void, both of which als...

... shouldn't the latency system be able to predict what's gonna happen next? (It's in the script, it just needs to be evaluated)

Predict what happens next in a touring complete dynamic script language? No

Thanks for the report however I don't see this changing. What you're seeing is the latency system predicting where the player is going to walk and the script logic changing where it will walk outside of the latency system resulting in its predictions being wrong.

Thanks for the report. I've improved the error for 0.17. It's actually checking that:

If you have shadows defined: shadow frame count must be == leaves frame count + 1

If you don't have shadows defined: trunk frame count must be == leaves frame count + 1

Thanks for the save and easy steps to reproduce it. It's now fixed for 0.17.

Show me a game that does what Factorio does as performant as Factorio is with anything you describe here and then I'll start to take these kinds of conversations seriously. Until then, all I've ever seen is hobby examples and poorly done slow games that claim to use any kind of entity component sys...

We don't use __serialize in the serpent library. We just call serpent.dump() on the table.

Some loose ideas that is probably not feasible. The component model could fit better with data that is need together (components) stored directly in arrays. Then you loop thru the arrays of data and the CPU cache should get an easier time... And the possibility to use SIMD instructions. Think more ...

Can you upload a simple mod + steps that reproduces the issue?

Yes, it's meant to show an error and put you back on the main menu. However, I'm trying to figure out how it crashed instead. Based off the stack trace in the log file you uploaded I'm speculating your code was running inside of some train related event when it errored? And as such, it left the trai...

Can you please post an example mod and steps to reproduce? When I test by searching for things with a space in the name I don't have that issue.
