Achievements being disabled should provide fair warning

When generating a new map on peaceful, or even now with "lowered settings", there should be some prior notice that some achievements will be disabled.

You really have no idea if something is disabled

Personally I'd like red text at the bottom near the generate button.

Re: Rail world disables achievements

The condition to disable the achievement is "lower amount of initial difficulty," not the expansion itself. You can basically raise the difficulty on railworlds, to enable the achievement, but which ones do you need to set? Who knows. And is it any easier to get the achievement in rail wor...

Rail world disables achievements

With the recent change of Exploitable Achievement Conditions being "fixed" in 0.16.3, achievements get disabled in rail worlds. I wont go into the arguments about "how easy is too easy"... in this post anyway. I'm just going to say that "Rail Worlds" should be considere...

Re: 0.16 Allow logistic Buffer chests to supply Requester chests

Xerkus, when they eventually fix the buffer chest it'd be great to depend only on the logistics rather than the circuit in that picture, no? :D

Re: Version 0.16.0

While i like the fast replace of splitters over belts I wish you couldnt place belts over splitters since whenever I went to upgrade my belts id always bumpmy splitter and have to replace it I think it would be better if a splitter was touched by a belt of a higher tier it replaced the splitter of ...

Re: 0.16 Allow logistic Buffer chests to supply Requester chests

mh_ this 'workaround' is mentioned as a reason for the chests to exist in the first paragraph of the buffer chest part of FFF#203 As I understand FFF#203 you couldn't do this workaround prior to the buffer chest. Now you can. What's the deal then? Please can someone help me, I don't understand. You...

Re: Friday Facts #203 - Logistic buffer chest

I thought the buffer chest was supposed to allow "Buffer -> Requester." I've found that it does not let items get pulled from the buffer chests. I was about to say that's not how it's supposed to work, so it's probably a bug, and then I found the bug thread where the devs say they intenti...

Re: 0.16 Allow logistic Buffer chests to supply Requester chests

I think the "silly situation" is buffers pulling in items a distance away, and then having requesters run dry that then pull from the buffers That "situation" was the only good thing about buffer chests though... it holds them in a certain area then pulls when needed. The other ...

  • Added logistic buffer chest. It can request items that are still available to the logistic system.
Not true, it's only available to personal logistics. Buffer chests don't work with Requester Chests. Which makes these chests a no-go for me.

Re: Auto Trash (cursor) modification

I would have thought this suggestion would be more popular.

EDIT: I see 0.15 already has this feature. Lovely.

[LOCK] Auto Trash (cursor) modification

I love auto trash. It keeps my inventory clean. In fact almost all the entries are set to 0, to immediately remove the item from my inventory. It's brilliant. There's just one problem with this: Your cursor is considered a part of your inventory. Why is this a problem? Consider grabbing something ou...
