So the release will be at 14.08.2020?

My friend and I are going to have our own private release party for this!

Can you tell me if it will be playable at around 18:00 on the UTC +01:00 Timezone?

Re: Friday Facts #214 - Concrete rendering

Well, I just want to let you know how the real concrete looks like. There are tiles AND it is on the same level as everything else. None of these images have anything in common with the World of Factorio. There, things are rather done rough and simply put on top of the ground, like a pavement. All ...

Re: Friday Facts #214 - Concrete rendering

Made some quick test on substance to make a how i would see concrete texture, tried to keep as close to factorio style, having 3 version : I can also provide heighMap, Normal map, and even roughness map if needed Those are tiles. And sorry but the designers of course know their own ways to create c...

Re: Friday Facts #214 - Concrete rendering

I'm reffering to the FFF-Post.

I like it. It matches the rough look of Factorio very well.
And the screenshot at the bottom looks fantastic!

Regarding this:

To be honest, when I first saw this image without reading the text beforehand, i thought you made the terrain look like died out (grey and just dead) where theres oily machinery nearby.

Re: How are games optimized for specific CPU's? (f.e. Ryzen)

"AMD Responded to this, saying that games are not optimized for these new CPU's." AMD never said that. Whatever they said applied to the platform and every aspect of it. And knowing how to optimize isnt done in a quick explanation, you need at least some basic understanding of programming...

How are games optimized for specific CPU's? (f.e. Ryzen)

Hello, I want to ask this here, since theres really much technical talk here and I know for sure that the devs of factorio are real cracks in topics like this. The new CPU's by AMD, Ryzen, came out this week. In the technical news I read that people are complaining about them a little since theyve s...

1.0 without endgame?

I've a question here. In the first post of this thread was said, that 0.16 would become v1.0 when its stable. Is this such a good Idea? As far as I know, the endgame is still missing and the game is simply ending with a dialogbox telling you your stats. I think this could be a disappointment for peo...

Re: Friday Facts #169 - Combat revisit 2

I just read the part about the Waves-Gamemode on the FFF; What about having this when you finally launch the rocket in the main game when you set the rocket to launch? So that you have to survive a large number of waves first? To be honest, a friend of mine and I thought that something like them sto...

Re: How to generate a trains focused map?

Well theres just those comments in the config file, and when trying out on your own its hard to find out how the settings actually work. For example, the absolute_enemy_chance lets one to three nests spawn in a region if its set to 100 but not more. I want to fight them when Im working towards my re...

Re: How to generate a trains focused map?

Ahhh thank you. I somehow thought I could try it out that way. My fault!

Ive played around with the settings of the mod now. I wish it was somewhat more documented, but I guess Ive found a nice balance.

Thank you guys!

Re: How to generate a trains focused map?

Thanks for your reply. Sorry I didnt express myself in enough detail. I generated a map in the map editor with this mod on in 0.13.17 and there are no starting resources . I scrolled to the left until I reached like tile -20.000 (just to kinda make sure there really is none) and I cant find any reso...

Re: How to generate a trains focused map?

Hey thank you both for this info!

I installed the newest rso-mod on my 0.13.17 installation of factorio and activated the mod (restartet the game afterwards).
When I now generate a map, theres no resources or enemies anywhere. Do you have any configuration tipps for me, also?

Greetings,

Ravior

Hello I want to generate maps where its an absolute must to use trains through expansive railways to gather the basic resources. I want resources to be at least 5000 tiles apart or so.
