Never mind, just saw the interrupted service thread at the top.

When trying to start my headless Linux server, I get a 503 response from the authentication server, saying it ran into a json parsing error. Is this something on my end? I've checked the server settings json and it looks syntactically acceptable. Is there something else I need to check?

These links answer all my questions. You're my new favorite person.

Okay, so it's a rewrite/add-on of the control.lua file. Hm. I know bash, I know python, but I don't know lua. I was hoping there was some way to do it without having to learn a new language. Thanks for the pointer, though. I'll look at it some more.

I'm running a headless Linux server, and I want to write a script that will keep track of who joins the server. Where would I find that information? I only see chat information in the logs.

Glad to help! You can also downgrade to a previous version using that list, in case a new update has a game-breaking bug.

Good luck with the worms!

I noticed this issue last night. I was making level 3 assembling machines and I had enough red circuits to make 12 speed modules. However, I was able to make four assembling machines, which would require making 20 more red circuits, despite not having any plastic in my inventory. When I queued up th...

If you've got steam, you can update it to 0.13.15. Right click on the game in your library, go down to properties, go to the "betas" tab on the far right, and on the first drop down menu you can select which version you want. If you select "the latest experimental build" it shoul...

I have a vanilla headless server located in Texas.

Comment/message me if you're interested, and I'll send you the information.

The flamethrower. It costs just a little bit of heavy and light oil and a few iron plates per flame fuel, and I can usually take down a medium sized base, sans biters, using less than one capsule. Just run in, click once on all the worms and bases, then run away. It's laughably cheap for how effecti...

Once you've got the rail planner up, you can hit R to rotate it. It takes some finagling to get it right sometimes, but it will loop it around. Also, if you only have on train on the track, you shouldn't need signals. That being said, I can't remember the last time I had one train, so I could be wro...

Nope, it only charges in its own network.

I'm not sure what you mean by counter, but everything should be changeable even after hooking the combinators up. The only thing you can't change directly on the combinator is the input because it depends on other variables that are upstream from the combinator.

The chain signal and the regular rail signal look at the tracks ahead differently. The regular signal just checks to see if there is a train before the next signal, whether that next signal be a chain or regular signal. The chain signal checks to see if there is a train before the next signal OR if ...
