This seems like a big change with a minor motivation. For every player who is complaining about lost productivity with recipe switching there will be a player who complains that some count-perfect circuitry no longer works, or that belts cannot handle random throughput spikes, requiring higher tier ...

Getting exactly ten signals will be hard, when you consider edge cases like "all signals have the same value". Which ones should it even pick‽ My idea was to have a constant combinator that gives each possible signal a unique value, then that is added to the input (on the lower 15 bits), ...

well easy, use a selector as I said to get the 10th items in the list, use arithmetic to abstract the signal, then use the value to set in a compactor to get all signal >= to this value, bim top 10 signals. Only if those signals have unique values, otherwise >= will select more than 10 signals.

I can think of a way that would work for 1 to 15 inputs (dynamically) as long as the inputs are less than 32768 (using half of the bits to unique each signal so that a decider combinator can do each < N where N is the output of one selector combinator with index 1-15). It could also be unlimited but...

+1, a checkbox whether to include buffer chest contents would work for me. It would be useful also on any logistic condition (on inserters, drills, etc) to control amount in the network available to requester chests (request from buffer chests disabled to prevent infinite loop).

Been thinking about this recently, but I would make middle mouse button click the default instead of Q. Middle-mouse (aka mouse wheel click) is already used to set filters for inventory slots (like cargo wagon) so it kind of fits better.

In remote view? Nope, doesn't work here.

There's no "Enter key" function that can be rebound. It seems to be hardcoded, so no.

Since the default 'E' to confirm no longer works in numeric input fields (logistic requests, combinator constants, etc) due to the postfix symbols feature (k, m, g, ...), I would like to add a secondary keybinding that uses a modifier key like CTRL+E or CMD+E (on mac) which should not result in a te...

+1, expected this to work after reading the remote view FFF.

Not only artillery. I was just thinking of it specifically because I needed it today.

I have 5 parallel factories, 1 for common, and then 4 duplicate factories for uncommon, rare, epic, and legendary. (I'm calling them duplicate factories because they are built the exact same, with the only differences being the quality inputs that they take). Why would you duplicate the factories, ...

+1, this is what I envisioned when reading the FFF's.

+1, but would prefer inserters being able to add and remove modules

Also roboport and artillery range should be displayed in map view when holding item or blueprint.

Blueprint tooltips can be unnecessarily wide due to the description for super-force build. The description is not even accurate (normal force build already places terrain), and doesn't mention the most useful feature (placement of underground belts). Also "force build" doesn't have any des...

Sometimes I set up programmable speakers to warn me when a resource patch is running low, and updating the game now causes these alarms to off when the wired drill has run out (which isn't unlikely given that it's easier to wire up the outer drills and those drills are normally the first to run out)...

When I press R after having dragged a belt over some obstacles and then move the cursor to either side, it creates a single perpendicular belt next to each blocked tile all the way back to the previous end of the belt (where it also makes a correct corner as normal).

Very cool! I like the music and the detailed look at some beautiful factories. That massive asteroid smashing into the space platform is fun to watch!
