Re: Friday Facts #382 - Logistic groups

I'm here to join the anti 1 platform club. Intentionally limiting throughout feels really anti the spirit of factorio. Perhaps we could be allowed to have multiple space platforns and then 1 landing pad per platform. But one per planet feels like we're going to be forced to rely on having bots doing...

[1.1.49] Desync with trains [Modded]

I don't entirely sure exactly how this works. All attempts to reproduce this using anything other than the exact conditions shown here does not seem to cause the issue. Its also worth noting that none of the mods here other than renai transportation alter the function of trains at all so I'm not tot...

[0.18.18] Modded: Desync on join. Restart seems to fix

What I did: 1. Click join via steam 2. Desync 3. Reconnecting causes more desyncs. The issue has also happened with another player on the server aswell. And restarting the server seems to fix whatever is going wrong so players can join again. Sorry I couldn't give more detail. Here is a desync repor...

Re: Friday Facts #339 - Beacon HR + Redesign process

I agree with many of those in the forum that this seems out of place. But I would forgive it all in a heartbeat if you make the electric sparks the same color as the module that goes inside. That would be freaking sweet.

Re: Friday Facts #318 - New Tooltips

Just some thoughts. 1. How about we display consumption on a single line. Like... Consumes: Wire: 4/Second Max Iron Plate: 2/Second Max Produces: Green Circuit: 2/Second Max Just saves a lot of vertical space on a complicated recipe. 2. What if with bonuses you had like... 10 + 50 = 60 explosive dam...

Re: Friday Facts #280 - Visual Feedback is the king

Looks pretty great. What I've always wanted to see is the ability to create conditions within the train to see whether or not the train visits the next station. For example go to iron drop If the train got mixed ore in it for some reason

Re: Friday Facts #276 - Belt item spacing & Script rendering

Am I the only one who doesn't understand how relying on gaps would make any difference at all to these detectors? It will only output a solid signal when 60i/s are passing through the belt. A simple counting circuit will count up at 60/s. Idk if it's the way other people did it. But the way I've alw...

Re: Friday Facts #271 - Fluid optimisations & GUI Style inspector

I think that this poster is a challenge to experienced factorio players to find everything that is wrong with it. Because there are quite a few. -Long inserter. Pointing out of a passive provider, also would never be able to connect. -Lubricant coming out of an oil refinery. Then gets heated up in a...

Re: Friday Facts #266 - Cleanup of mechanics

Getting my unread two cents in here. I feel like if the goal is to simplify a little than assembler 1 should have 3 ingredients. Now you can suddenly automate assembler 1s, inserters and splitters. Without being able to automate slightly less necessary in early game assembler 2s, steam engines, and ...

Re: Friday Facts #260 - New fluid system

Nobody ever reads my posts anyways. But I just had an epiphany. What if we only had one variable (fluid in pipe) that also encompasses pressure. It sounds similar to what we are doing currently. But what I'm proposing is a pretty substantial change in function. Biggest Change: every producer of flui...

Creeping Features

Stupid feature just for requesting. You forgot Ctrl+y aka un-undo aka redo. Also what if clipboard blueprints were actually on the clipboard? I dunno if generation of blueprint strings is instant enough to be unnoticeable. But it would be kinda neat to copy paste from forums and other maps with one ...

Knowing this will be buried.

Switch the queue to only support two or 3 researches. If the other players are anything like me. They HATE the Ides of lost efficiency between the researches. And it would also remove that annoying research oveerwriting that happens all the time online. But like.. don't get me wrong I'm with them. F...

Re: Friday Facts #231 - Belt compression & Crash log uploading

How's about this idea to put on the pile. When factorio crashes it has the whole "factorio has crashed" kinda popup we all know and love. Then it has a check box saying automatically send crash reports. If the box is checked when you hit ok or close or whatever it will send. But unchecking...

Allow players to set the stack limit on nuclear plants

TLDR: Title says it all. I want to be able to say only insert one item at a time into the nuclear plant. The situation: I have a "smart" nuclear power plant which more or less decides how many plants I want on at the same time. The problem is it will insert 6 fuel into the plant when it tu...

Disable Bots when moving faster than their top speed.

TLDR: When you are moving faster than your bots current researched speed whether this is via train, car, or even legs, it should disconnect you from the network and prevents bots flying to nowhere and getting no battery.
