I believe I have something like 20 trains, but I have had to have two rails going in each direction to accommodate all the trains. I also had to get rid of most of the circles, as it took too long for the trains to pass through them. I tried updating to one of the newer versions, but it doesn't ...

I have everything set to max, but seeing as I can produce right around 10k iron and copper plates per minut, I need all the ore I can get.

This seems very similar to one of my factories. I also had the idea of making all the different products in different mini-factories, and then bring them to the main factory. I have had a lot of issues with my trains though, as they kept blocking each other - I used the same railroad layout as you ...

However if I add more production the steam engines will slowly turn on if needed.

As I see it the solar ...

I have been playing Factorio for quite a while now, and only yesterday did this problem occur.
The game kind of pauses for a second, every five seconds or so (my fully upgraded shotgun can fire five shots before it pauses), even though
the game is running at 50-60 fps.

At first I really liked this mod.
I was building a moat (?) (a ring of water) around my base using the Landfill mod.
However I needed a quick way to get to the other side, so I downloaded this mod to get a boat.
As I discovered the mod made it so I was able to cross ...

For some reason I can't seem to get the mod working. I might be installing it wrong, but every time I place a Smart Splitter I get the error:
