That is sad to hear.
And there is probably no way to set the value that got generated to a fixed value.

It would be very awesome, if the burner would expose the current_usage.

Currently we would need to do some math to get that number:
--[[
Current fuel consumption of a train's locomotives.

Math (Factorio wiki, "Locomotive" → Speed calculations), per tick:

v1 = max(0, |v| - friction / weight ...

Could the docs then be extended, for when Energy usage/production is written somewhere, it links to https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/types/Energy.html ?

In Prototype stage we can chooce between Watt and Joules, but in Runtime there is no info anywhere which energy type is used.

For example:
https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/classes/LuaBurner.html#remaining_burning_fuel What type of energy is left? Is it watts or joules?

I reworked the Book alot.

Added alot of new 4 way stuff, new junctions etc.

Renamed alot of books/blueprints.

Hey,

it would be awesome for bigger inventories to have the option to increase the items a single slot can slot.
So similiar to how the artilerry works, as it stores 100 shells, when the shell has a stack size of 1.

I would call it something like itemPerSlotModifier or slotMultiplier .

Greetz ...

I had a idea.

What if with higher quality, the Space Platform Hub and Cargo Bay increase the item that are storable in a single slot, based on quality?

It would properly reduce tps usage.

How I would do it:
Space Platform Hub
Per quality level you get one more modifier, so uncommon would be * 2 ...

Hey, it would be nice to be able to read total needed research cycles from a lab.
As we already can read out how many science pack per cycle we need, it would be helpful also beeing able to read the cycles needed.

There is the "Construction surface conditions". It's at the bottom of the tooltip when you mouseover the recipe. It's also at the bottom of the top info block in the factoriopedia.

E.g. the Biolab has this section, lists a pressure requirement, and says "Buildable on <icon for Nauvis>".

Do you ...

We currently have the Crafting surface conditions, but no way to see where a entity is limited to in terms of beeing placed.

So I propose that there should be the same thing as for Crafting surface conditions, but now only for the placing of entities.

Seems to be a known issue and is on the Milestones for 3.x.

So we will have to wait and see.

Thanks.

Before 2.1, I could easily force the window to go into Windowed Borderless`, but now I need to enable fullscreen and then force it down to 2k.

This is needed for people who play on a not 16:9 screen and dont want the 21:9 or 32:9 experience.

I use Windowed Borderless Gaming for all my games and ...

Hey, it would be nice if we could get the tags with pulling /api/mods/{name} and /api/mods?nameliste={name},{name},{name} .

It would make pulling alot of mods at once easier.

This is also the only information missing from the overview, like seen in this picture.

Even when I wouldnt use it much, this would be a game changer.

Would this also be here correct?

Like shown in the gif, the 1x1 loader and the lane balancer are both getting overwritten, while they shouldnt.

This doesnt happen with wall ghosts, so its probably something with the connecting of walls.
And it doesnt affect all ghosts, only some.

Thank you for adding this to Factorio!

A few comments:

- LuaSchedule::add_record should either return the index at which the record was inserted *or* have a parameter that allows defining where the record goes in the schedule. Currently I do

schedule.add_record { ... }
local index = schedule ...

Hey,

it would also be awesome if we could clear all the records & interrupts with one command.

Hey,

it would be awesome if we could give the add_record option a index at which it should insert.
