Re: Friday Facts #356 - Blueprint library for real
This is a great FFF, one of the best. Things I like about it: The deeper view of your work / life / mind, kovarex. The evolution of the blueprint library. Being able to use blueprints in the mapview. So awesome! That random "fuck" in there when you realized the agreement was already made 2...

Re: Friday Facts #334 - New poison cloud animation, flying robot dying effect
I like the changes. Small suggestion: make the rotation of the dieing robot a bit slower. Looks a bit too hectic right now. Maybe also some smoke effect so the change from "dieing robot" to "remnant" doesn't look as jaggered?

Re: Licensing and mod portal
Well, streamers also create content - their streams. Restricting how they are allowed to monetize it feels some kind of bad. Also modders use the software of Factorio and the modding API to create the content. It is all a big symbiosis to get more fun out into the world. ("exploitation" is...

Re: Friday Facts #311 - New remnants 3
It also allows us to power you through some parts that we feel take too long for the campaign - giving the player a functional mining outpost means they only need to connect it and solve the logistical part, not much of the outposting etc, which can be interesting too. There is an iron ore outpost,...

Re: Licensing and mod portal
This makes me curious how you thought that would work: If mods are part of the game, that would mean that Wube would have all rights to them, literally own them. No custom licensing at all. I certainly wouldn't want to release mods only for Wube to own them; my mods are my IP, not Wube's. So my que...

Re: Licensing and mod portal
Of course does the author have the right to restrict mod usage - but that doesn't change anything about how bad I think it is. That's just one of the disadvantages of a system where we give (nearly) all rights to the author. On the other side this enables a huge amount of freedom and other advantage...

Re: Friday Facts #311 - New remnants 3
Looks pretty good in my opinion, but one entity could in my opinion need some work: the logistic chests. Their remnants still look pretty useable, not destroyed.

Re: mod enable, disable
The game creates a list of items, technologies, loads graphics, changes settings depending on other loaded mods (mods can depend on other mods). All this happens on the start of the game, so it has to restart for the changes to have an effect.

Re: Friday Facts #309 - Controversial opinions
The thing is, Deadlock989 really thinks he's right. We either have to argue in a way that accepts his way of thinking, or we have to ignore him. Everything else will pretty surely not lead to successful discussions or even him changing his mind. Alt mode should probably be off by default to not over...

Re: [0.17.66] Wrong GUI bounding box in deconstruction planner
Well, I am German and play the game in German, so yes, I can confirm there are some places where the translated words are much longer and look bad. The thing is, that's not what I want to report (at least not now), but this is a real bug which should be solved. Then again, I do see that this is a pr...

Re: [0.17.66] Wrong GUI bounding box in deconstruction planner
*eye twitching* Other way to show this bug: Create a mod that changes the number entity_filter_count of the item deconstruction-planner from 30 to 50. Done. For testing purposes, you can just change the value in the file "[factorio dir]\data\base\prototypes\item\item.lua" on line 506 and t...

Re: Character Logistics Slots
The developers want Production and Utility to be the same rank, and the more sophisticated logistic system is unlocked by Utility, so that part seems correct.

Re: [0.17.66] Wrong GUI bounding box in deconstruction planner
To be honest: don't know. It looks new, but that could just be some standard settings. If it's not new and there are plans to overwork it, then this bug report is not important, yes. ^^

Re: [0.17.66] Wrong GUI bounding box in deconstruction planner
Like I said, it also happens with normal maximised windowed. It's not that I deliberately did use a stupid screen resolution, that was just a way to show the bug without installing mods. It also happens in other configurations. Here's another way to show the bug: Set the UI scaling to 125%. Done. Th...

bug red blueprint box.png Please take a look the the third line, fifth box of the Deconstruction planner boxes. I marked one part of the box in blue [1] and one part in red [2]. The blue part works correctly, but moving the mouse to the red part doesn't hightlight the box. Clicking there doesn't op...

Re: Smart Station for outposts
How does that work with many trains? I mean, you could have 30 trains trying to visit Station A, but the station only has resources for one train. After this one train is filled, the leftover 29 trains try to visit Station B - but that station also only has resources for one train. The leftover 28 t...

Re: How to collect Solid fuel or Coal quickly from furnaces or any machines that uses them ?
As far as I know there is no faster way to do that, but the thing is... why should you do that often? Factorio is a game about automation. Just let it burn.

Re: Factorio age rating?
A big reason why Superhot got USK 16 is probably because it's first person and you shoot at "human formed" things. Both is not the case for Factorio.
