I .. I think I love you guys, the best ever game is getting even better. I'm building a colossal megabase, cant wait to get old spidey more involved, especially at night, and the little tweaks are fantastic. I'll be opting in straight away. Oh and I'm wearing my chocolate inserter t-shirt right now ...

Just so you guys know this my favourite game and I am so excited to play 1.0. You guys are fantastic, not only have you created the best game, base building experience, timesink and automation heaven ever, you have spawned a new genre. Each playthrough is over 250 hours and continually engaging and ...

Kovarex' statement on marketing is fantastic, marrying the realities of life with good sense and a disgust for manipulation. Total respect.

Anyway here's my marketing suggestion:

Advert/concept.

Multiplayer map with megabase constructed by multiple players.
Camera pans from the outer walls where ...

Hi,

Not sure where to post this, but maybe here is the best place.

Steam takes an AGE to sync when I quit, and I have recently realised that this must be because it is syncing the 3 autosaves as well as my saved game. I would like a solution where this doesn't happen. To wit:

Is there some option ...

I searched to see if this existed so if I missed it apologies.

Would it be possible to assign a station name to a logistics network variable?

Then we would be able to have on the map information about how much of this or that is left, we could use logic to dynamically determine station locations ...

Ok that's it.

I'm sure there are more like me who read the Friday Facts every week and want to say this but can't be bothered to go through the hassle of loggin in etc. but ...

You guys are absolutely amazing, these improvements are fantastic, so much more than anyone could expect. The new GUI ...

How you have maintained the same look, yet made it look fresh, professional and stylish is amazing.

I couldn't have imagined a better job. 11/10.

"Is that a city builder?"

It's the same game. Filesize 33MB

For some reason over the weekend the amount of time it takes for steam to sync after exiting the game to upload the saved game has decreased dramatically, from 25 minutes to about 5.

Has anyone else noticed this? Does anyone know why?

+1 Contour Cliffs! Great idea!

I made lighter coloured concrete high res only from the new textures, including refined concrete and stone bricks: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=58364&p=347328#p347328

Cliffs area nice idea, and they are very well implemented - however.

I have only just encountered them on my pre cliffs map as it has expanded, and I just find them annoying. I have set up a factory to make cliff explosives to destroy them, and they don't stack very well.

I can see how they may ...

Ok done, here: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=58364

I have created lighter high res versions of the concrete and stone floor textures, as the standard ones are too dark for me.

To use extract to Factorio\data\base\graphics: Before:
After:
N.B. Only High Res textures included.

Ok forget it I found it, hazard concrete is in a different folder. I will post new textures when I have sorted it, if anyone is interested.

The latest update brought us some new refined concrete. Yay! Thank you. The tiles look great, however it's still too dark, and the normal concrete is still way to dark for my tastes. (I was using a texture pack which got wiped over with the new update).

So I have tried to lighten them. I have made ...

I have just finished building a huge base, and only now 300 hours in do I need to go outside of the walls to get ore ...

I have really enjoyed the challenged of automating the process of dismantling outposts. Do I use trains? Do I take a car with me to take stock? How careful do I need to be about ...

So what, percentage of highest possible production?
