Re: priority inserting modules into machines

I agree with this. Currently I can't just control-click quality modules into a machine, because that might replace a better quality module with a worse one. Basically it looks like higher levels replace lower levels...

Q2 replaces Q1
Q3 replaces Q2 or Q1

...without regard for whether that actually ...

Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.

This is a game about automation, right? You shouldn't be rushing around hand-filling machines on Gleba. The idea on Gleba is the same as on every other planet: To create a self-sustaining system. It's just that on the other planets you slap down a row of assembly machines, inserters, and belts, and ...

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers

You can't hit them with any weapon I know of, but if you have enough exoskeletons, you might be able to dodge them, and if you have some energy shields, then they won't hurt your health.

Re: Add planet icons next to alerts and seperate them by planet.

It would be pretty great to have little planet icons on the alerts, or something similar, to make it clear which planet an alert originates from.

In my current playthrough I'm constantly noticing that something is being attacked, but I can't tell at a glance whether it's a planet I really need to ...

Re: Denser belt items with manual drop [2.0.72]

Isn't it related to this?

https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-231


The solution was, that whenever there is any gap bigger than the standard distance between items on a belt, item can be inserted there and for a (usually) brief moment, the items are squashed together closer than usual. But ...

Re: Need help about my mods showing zero downloads ingame.

It's some peculiarity to the search results, since the mod pages show the number of downloads.

Maybe what's meant by the caching is that the search results are cached.

Maybe the search result updating is stuck somehow.

Re: Czech language error

I showed ChatGPT the picture, and it said:


The line “Znečištění pohlcování: 1.84/min na sektor” is not natural Czech.

The problem is word order.
Czech normally puts the thing being consumed/absorbed first, and the process second.
So it should be:

„Pohlcování znečištění“ = absorption of ...

Re: Improved Vehicle Control


There is a mod which perfectly solves this issue. It's called Vehicle Snap. Please integrate it into vanilla.

No need for complex solutions, or breaking changes here.


Snapping has been done already, as of April 2025:

Re: Gleba!

I enjoy Gleba now, but my initial frustration with it was based on a single fundamental error:

Bots.

After Nauvis -> Fulgora -> Vulcanus, I was using a lot of bots. So I initially started Gleba by sending down a bunch of stuff, and then laying down a bunch of assembly machines with requester and ...

If you're choosing to play Ribbon World, it's not the devs playing an evil joke on you. You're playing the evil joke on yourself.

sicky337, I realize you're probably trying to ask politely, but the way you're asking is in fact rude.

Re: "2" is considered False when using AND/OR combinators

Mabbus, you do know that AND/OR/XOR are bitwise, not boolean, right?

If you do A=5 AND B=6 and output as C, you'll get C=4. This is because the bit positions are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16... So 5 is 1 + 4, and 6 is 2 + 4, so the 4 is what they have in common. If you use A=5 OR B=6 -> C, you'll get C=7. If you ...

Re: Why is the Quality mod required for Space Age?


I'd guess, it's a dependency issue.
space age needs quality, because of recyclers for fulgora.
when you do vanilla with quality, you need recyclers, too.

recyclers can't be in space age only, so they are inside the quality mod.

Solution would be to extract recyclers as own mod, which can be used ...
