The train UI kind of looks like a sperm. Not that I'm complaining. but, It probably wont take long until someone make a video of a "sperm" fertilizing an "egg" in Factorio.

Thank You, That is what I wanted to know. Now I know which stations needs to be updated. The behavior of items placed on the belt was indeed changed in 0.16.46 to behave consistently if inserters are rotated. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=60653 So in previous versions you actu...

I've an improved version of the setup.. You can actually extent it as much as you like https://i.imgur.com/QBI8Oro.jpg 0eNrVmOtu2yAUgN+F37EUwJck0vYCe4Spshz7JEWzsQW4alf13XeY0yRdcAO0arQ/sQz4O4dzhTyTbTvCoIQ0ZPNMRN1LTTY/n4kWe1m1dsw8DUA2RBjoyILIqrNvo6qkGLuE8Yy8LIiQDTySDX25WxCQRhgBE+bvy1Mpx24LChccAfA4KNA6...

Did the direction of items placed in the belt change a few versions back? I've not played Factorio in a few months and when I opened my last saved game, it looks like things have changed.

My bottom inserters place the items to the left of the belt.

Would Sandbox mode be getting some love? always played with Sandbox mode since I found it exhausting to go from one part of the base to another, especially when you are creating a base with 1 RPM / SPM in mind.

When one logistics network has a lot of work (600+) to be done by construction robots, a separate logistics network does not do start its work until the other work falls below 600. From my save, you can see that the Main Bus has lots of work to be done by a limited number of construction robots and ...

If you are going to nerf bots, would there be any issue in limiting the number of bots that can access a smart chest at the same time?

In case it matters to some, I just received my shirt ordered 11 December yesterday in Canada (Toronto area). That may give some indication as to how long the wait may be - I know I was concerned and others were too. Thank you, now I'll be able to expect mine sometime soon.... Update: The postman ju...

Nuclear Fuel needs Rocket Fuel as on of its Inputs but you can research Nuclear Fuel before you can research Rocket Fuel.

Rocket Fuel is reached in Rocket silo while Nuclear fuel can be got from Kovarex enrichment process.

Not sure if this is a bug or a feature

Updated the idea with the template.

When you press the R key to rotate a belt that full it actually compresses the items in the belt a lot more than allowed.

TL;DR Having the option to set the complete train path manually. i.e. From Station A -> Station B -> Station A What ? https://i.imgur.com/pwQNIBO.png 1. In the Train Shedule window have the option to Set Mode: Scheduled Route (or something more appropriate) 2. The Map view on the right should show ...

Personally for me, I find that I need more copper than Iron at the moment. I'm currently trying to build a 1 RPM mega base in sandbox, peaceful mode and for that, I need a lot of Production Module 3's & Speed module 3's. Though I'm far from achieving that goal, I do consume a lot more copper tha...

If there's something strange in you neighborhood, Who you gonna call?

Hope they server beer at those McDonald's.... One of the programs I use and sometimes help develop has a function that allows for random generation of maps. It does this by using what are called geomorphs to create a series of "random" dungeons and corridors. The downside is that the geomo...

Waiting for it!

OK... When I first asked about binding keys 6.. 0 for the toolbelt, I didn't realize that the Shift 1-5 can be rebinded to 6..0...
So if you do that, you will get what is needed... also we could use the X key to switch between the top row and bottom row...
no changes needed and everybody wins!

Yeah, I fully support. Shift + 1-5 is just SO MUCH MORE comfortable it HAS to be the default. With it, a player won't have to keep repositioning their hand on keyboard all the time, which is really unnerving. I understand new players might be uncomfortable with this at first, as I was in my time. S...

Finally it has been mentioned to change hotkeys for your 6th-10th items from shift-1-5 to 6-0. I agree with this change. Please DONT change the toolbar shortcuts from Shift 1-5 to 6-0 . This would be a huge step down in usability because most of us don't have fingers that can reach past 6 or 7 from...
