Re: Friday Facts #309 - Controversial opinions

Anything which is in-progress when you mine a furnace or assembling machine is lost I'm sorry but this change needs to be reverted in the base game. Yes i could use the mod blabla, but this encourages and incredibly unfun playstyle where you take out the mats first, wait for it to finish crafting a...

Re: Friday Facts #267 - Experiments, Explosives & Extended tags

Two years ago, I was under the impression, that we need to eradicate all the weird options, to make the game just work for everyone. Over time and after all experience and feedback we have gathered, I started to realize that different people have different expectations, and their brains are wired d...

Re: Friday Facts #266 - Cleanup of mechanics

Reduce the number of damage types to something like: generic, impact, heat, and acid. Gotta disagree here. I wouldn't know where to put laser or electric under there. Why not just merge generic and impact into physical and add energy/energetic for laser and electric ? (heat being fire and explosion...

Re: PyCoalTBaA or the PyCoal Touched by an Angel Compatibility Patch

I found another thing where tbh i'm not a 100% it even falls under your mods "responsibility": Nitrogen Gas (the one with the flame symbol and the double blue atom in the upper corner) is currently voided via the Py-Sinkhole (which is for liquids) and not the Py-GasVent. This is also true ...

Re: Friday Facts #257 - NPE/Campaign update

One of the things we could really use in the campaign was a terrain that the player can't build on, but can walk on, so we are adding shallow water as a new terrain type. So far it's a cheap solution from our side - it's just a new tileset that is combined with decorative entities to make it look l...

Hooray lamps! It's the little things like this that makes a game great. <3 Agreed. I'm playing a bit of Railway Empire right now, and the train system in Factorio is better then in that one... In a game about trains... (Not that Railway Empire is bad per se, but i wish they put a bit more work into...

Re: Friday Facts #227 - Rendering, Trees & Scenario talk

Do you have any ideas for new scenarios, or improvements to the current ones? Instead of quoting a long list of ideas i would have myself: WC3 and SC2 fun maps. They should give heaps of ideas of what could be done in Factorio (in it's own style), especially on the PvP side which you seem to fancy.

Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

Just another post to finally put loaders into vanilla. Loaders make belts immediately better. All the inserter setups always suffer with continuuity problems. And something you forgot in the FFF: Bots, especially if massively used, are terrible for seeing at what state your factory is. Just look at ...

Mod Settings Not Saving Correctly

Issue: Mod settings (map) seem to only save when the game is unpaused. Even it isn't a straight up bug (not sure if this is intended behavior or not), this is very counter-intuitive and should probably be changed. Reproduce: Install any mod (i tried with far reach, helmod, RSO). Start a new game. Ch...

Re: Friday Facts #224 - Bots versus belts

A feature that hasn't been really mentioned which makes belts more fun are loaders. I only play with loaders nowerdays. Inserters (even the faster ones from bobs) are just too slow and flow-disruptive. You'll still use bots for the pain-in-the-arse 20 component thingies of which you don't need much,...

Re: Friday Facts #201 - 0.15 Stable, but not really

The rail segment is really cool and useful however how about making the line segments arrows as it is possible to have a missing signal on only one side of the rail This. It would be really beneficial to those of us trying to make rather complex train systems. I can do track, but I'll be @#$%ed if ...

So this suggestion certainly isn't new, but the forum search and google didn't turn up anything helpful. Please let me unbind hotkeys in the menu! If there is a way, i could also not find it btw (usually games have an "unbind" button somewhere). This is really badly needed if you play with...
