Well, the idea isn't that it goes straight to hosting the game, but that it does straight to the dialog before hosting the game. The way it works now: Multiplayer Load game Click the button to sync mods Restart the game Multiplayer again Load game again And when I say "Load game", first I ...

Forum search: "Trophies" - 27 matches "Achievements" - 3163 matches Your continuous use of the term "trophies" is a distraction from your main point. But more importantly, it's worth keeping in mind that anything the game developers work on means something else they can...

So I guess what I'm wondering is, if there's a "Join game after sync" and a "Load game after sync", why isn't there a "Host game after sync"?

I think if you tick the 2 options at the bottom it works like single player, the last one seem like it was unticked in your game for some reasons or am i missing something ?

What you're missing (because I neglected to mention it ) is that I'm the host, and I don't have that option.

The simple version: Use chain signals before shared track. Use normal signals after shared track. That's it. I think your tracks are way over-signaled. Start by removing all the signals. Then add chain signals before shared sections, and normal signals after. Then maybe you want to add more normal s...

When I load a single-player game of Factorio, I have the option to sync mods, restart Factorio, and go straight into the loaded game with the correct mods. But when I load a multiplayer game, even if I sync mods, after the restart I have to find the game again, load it again, etc. I'd expect that fo...

These are Alienware Aurora. Do not buy this. Alienware is crap. Agreed. Worst PC I've ever owned is an Alienware. Every so often it just forgets it has a hard drive. Like, it starts up and says there's no hard drive. So I shut it down, wait a while, boot it again, and it's fine. I think it's a non-...

In my opinion, 38 trophies is too few for the nature of Factorio. 38 is a good amount for an adventure game or a small indie game. Factorio is a strategy game with roguelike characteristics because the runs are repeated and the knowledge learned makes the player go further with each new game. Facto...

Almost nothing in the game is rewarded with a trophy. Correct, and this is a good thing, actually. But if you want more custom "trophies," you can use mods like Milestones that track a number of stats and record how quickly you get there: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Milestones It's cust...

Please, no. Let's not go the way of Civ V, with an award for losing a game against each civ, and starting a game in each difficulty, and on and on tediously... The list of achievements in Factorio is reasonable. I'm sure it'll be expanded in some ways for Space Age. But it doesn't need to be expande...

I was a bit taken aback by this, but I guess what you're saying is:

• Destroyed rocks won't drop stone.
• But mined rocks (and deconstructed rocks) still will.

This makes sense in the context of the game, as destroyed trees don't drop wood and destroyed cliffs don't drop anything.

You could use a mod like this to show the place names:

The "Trash unrequested" feature in Factorio 2.0 may improve this situation for spidertrons, at least. It won't stop robots from collecting stuff, but it'll at least make it less likely that the spidertron inventory will fill up so quickly. You can read about it here (in the "Trash unr...

I think it's safe to say that learning from ChatGPT is at best ill-advised .

One could say the same about randos from the internet.

pardon my french

Or, and hear me out here, if you notice yourself swearing, you could just remove that part before you post.

So I probably missed this or something but in space age can you use one of your current saves of factorio and continue from there or do you have to start from scratch Keep in mind that you can install the game from a .zip file. So if you have saves you're attached to, you can install 1.1 in one dir...

I swear sometimes people have a microphone listening to office conversations. 3 days ago I changed it so the game won’t let you manually remove your armor if it would spill items and then this post gets bumped from 2021 about the same topic. Anyway, for 2.0 the game won’t let you manually remove yo...

i would like for the game to stop rendering the world if it is not visible. Are you saying the game does this if it's paused? Or do you mean you're just letting the game run in the background unpaused while you're doing something else? If the latter, well, to me it kind of makes sense that the devs...

Are your refineries only producing light oil, or is it just that they're full of light oil?

If they produce all three products but the light oil has nowhere to go, then they'll remain stuck until you can move the light oil somewhere else.

...and preventing you from removing if your inventory is filled prevents intentional removal of the armour. Right, but remember the question I asked: Does anybody really ever intend to remove their armor without replacing it with a different armor? My feeling is: No, nobody ever does this on purpos...
