What map really misses are rivers. Without rivers Nauvis still looks unnatural. Water bodies are not interconnected, because of land bridges.

Could you please reuse shallow water tiles to connect water bodies as well? And using natural paths for river generation as well?

Question to devs:
Is lightning hardcoded for that planet, or will we get full weather system + modding API?

If you remember last FFF about factorio-pedia, there were connections from Vulkanus to two different plannets. First one was Nauvis, but seconds... The second does not look like Fulgora! https://snipboard.io/2o5TAJ.jpg So we have to expect 4th planet blogpost some time soon (I hope :D) P.S. Maaaan I...

I have made a report document in Word about my experience of new tutorial.
I am so lazy to write a big port on forum, so i made a document.

There had to be a palm tree.

Bridges? Ramps? Tunnels? Leap of faith (and fall damage)?

1. Any idea how to make cables not saggy? 2. Any idea how make new type of wire? (f.e. blue) 3. How to make additional connection point on pole (Red, El, Green and f.e. blue) for new wire? I mean pole with 4 connection points (asymmetric pole, 8-way directed). 4. If I can't make cables not saggy, ca...

I'll check it soon, thank you!

Hi all, I'm looking for any idea how make entity placeable only near rails and how show rail-signal spots overlay when holding entity in hand. It's not rail-signal type, it's electric-pole type. (I'm just trying to make railroad overhead line). Should I use "filter-directions" flag? How wo...

Suggestions 1. Have Red/Green wiring overlay. 2. Create a "node" object that can be Red/Green wired and named (seen on map), when you mouse over in the map, you can get a glimpse of information that is passing through the node. 3. Have a "heat" map based on how much electricity ...

Reducing the stack sizes for the barrels means that no one would use them/they become a pain when transporting stuff in vanilla via trains. After 0.15 release no one will want to transport via barrels (liquid tank wagon). So, dev can freely solve this disbalance via 1 and 2 parts of my solution in ...

2016-10-24.png Little calculation: 1 liquid tank occupies the same area as 9 steel chest (or 9 logistic storage chest). 1 chest contain 48 stacks. 1 stack of barrel is 10 barrels. 1 barrel keep 25 l of oil. So: 25 * 10 * 48 * 9 = 108000 l Forlorn liquid tank can contain only .. 2500 l. -=-=-=-=-=- ...
