If you are going towards a 10k SPM factory you will need about 40 - 45 GW power supply. Fully beaconed btw

My two cents:
I might have somewhat like a mega - nuclear - facility of now 356 reactors composed in two blocks.
Imgur power array

The reason why i built this was simple: Because i could and i was fed up with recurring power failures.
The drawback of this construction was the enormous waste of ...

You can't cancel any item crafting. Neither left nor right button has any effect on the crafting queue.
Seems like the same bug as in 0.15.13: viewtopic.php?t=48358

Cancel Items from crafting queue seems to be broken again like it was in 0.15.13: viewtopic.php?t=48358

EDIT: Opened a bug report here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=57158

Hi!

I'm sure i'm missing something and search didn't help either so ...

is there a way to find out what actually IS on a belt piece (under the cursor)? Clicking on it just tells what kind of belt it is.

Problem: I'm trying Bob's & Angel's and there are so many new (at least to me) items all ...

Funny thing i had the other day.
I use rotary junctions a lot - easy to build and allows trains to switch directions ( useful if you drive around manually!).
My normal train setup is 1 engine with 4 wagons.

What happend once and ONLY ONCE!: One train entered a roundabout coming from west with the ...

I wanted to hunt down those achievements so mods are out of question.

AFAIK you can't enable mods and still get achievments BUT if it would be possible i'd use FARL, RSO, Tanker and i wish there was a large electric pole with an integrated light (It's just my style to place a light to each large ...

First of all - this game is great, i wouldn't have spend another 180 hours playing it otherwise.

I did this marathon because of the (for me) new achievments - especially the 10 GJ Solar challenge.

Anyway - i want to share some thoughts here, even though there might be many things mentioned in ...

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post or the "show your creations" thread.

I've found and build a solution that works quite nice - not perfect, but good enough. It is possible to fill each of the 20 slots of a wagon with different stuff out of ONE chest. There is no need for 12 different ...

So i guess factorio is a somewhat frozen stable 11.x with some train fixtures. OK - great!
Factorio 2.0 will be in space - manufacturing colony ships (gene pool?) with intelligent fliing 3D robots.
Let me guess factorio 3.0 is a single manned survival in 3D building some spaceship for part 4 ...

Experimental? 2 times a day? You're sure?
Anyway - even if you have no quality / testing department at all - well the this is alpha / fast / beta / what ever you call it - it's top ace.
Dear devs - please don't misuse the crowd - your game is awesome - guess how long it is if the word spreads?

i really don't like quoting myself so:

Why can't a wagon post it's content just like a chest? For starters the whole train posts it's content to the net like a f***** chest does right now?

Just a single little change to be made: ADD an OUTPUT feed to the station.

I think this was a clear enough ...

I don't care about MP but i'm sure your QM sucks badly. On the other hand - great game, maybe one release per week would be enough?

I had exactly the same problem and no solution to pack more than 12 diff goods into a wagon.

At least when you transport oil it is impossible to mix in one wagon because you cannot limit stacks to crude oil ( you need to allow empty barrels as well ) so any other available stuff will fill up the ...

@ssilk: tx for moving this thread to where it belongs!

@Epicnoob: tx for your input! I had to adapt your input to my needs but it was extremly valuable for me!

Maybe i will show my solution here if someone is interested ...

Sticking to your programming language: The way it's now, it's like having a constant defined, but the only way to know it's value is to look into the source code because you can't use it as value elsewhere as it's an undefined symbol outside it's scope / chest.

I'm not sure if i got you right but you might mean the auto trash thingy in the character GUI where you put things in and your log robots grab and store them in a normal logistics storage box ( that light brown one )?

For the sake of simplicity and consistency i'd like to suggest the (possible) usage of a logistic network where ever the user can fill in a number (aka constant).

Example: Requester chest
Here you can request up to 10 different items with different counts you can fill in by hand. These numbers are ...

Assume you have a chest (or belt or train waggon - it doesn't matter) with mixed content from which you want to pick - lets say 50 repair packs, 30 fast inserters and 15 laser turrets with only ONE filter inserter.
In this chest is an unknown amount of anything (iron, coal, ...), maybe there are ...
