Re: Friday Facts #173 - Nuclear stuff is almost done

IMHO, nuclear power is so clean, it doesn't pollute other than waste. Will this have to be transported out in barrels, be processed to reduce pollution, or dumped with a huge spike in pollution? I think a meltdown/big explosion should be implemented. Using nuclear energy will give you a lot of avail...

Re: Pollution "blinking" once a second. What does it mean?

Aha, that makes sense!
So if it gets close enough (32x32?) from a nest, it would absorb it as well?

Pollution "blinking" once a second. What does it mean?

So at first I thought it was the radar updating, but it's the pollution cloud that "blinks" every second when seeing it on the map.

What exactly does this mean? The enemy bases are not under pollution, and they have never attacked.

Render Factorio map for web use?

Hi! I'm a new player of Factorio, long player of Minecraft. As I run a Minecraft-server I also set up Overviewer, which lets you render an isometric map over what has been explored. You also have DynMap which is a mod, live-updating so you can see the players in real time. I've only tried Overviewer...

Re: What difference does "Video Memory Usage" setting do?

Yeah I had Factorio dreams for about a week when I started and I still get them intermittently. Totally normal =P Some time last month (some time after starting a Bob's Mods run) I think my one-year-old kept waking up in the night and I was still half asleep thinking "Oh duh, it's because I'm ...

Shutting down dedicated server on Windows automatically

Hi! I have a dedicated server running on a Windows 10 machine, which is a 24/7 computer just for these type of things. I have a problem with Windows 10 deciding to reboot for updates to install, which is fine, I've set active hours so it shouldn't be an issue. What however is an issue is that it doe...

Re: What difference does "Video Memory Usage" setting do?

So, I might've "solved" it. To be absolute sure, I wanted to check my driver. It was from November, so not old-old, but still not the newest (why you fail me GeForce Experience?! :o ) I wanted to start fresh, so I uninstalled nVidia drivers etc, but it crashed and hell started. Long story ...

Re: What difference does "Video Memory Usage" setting do?

Whoa, thanks for the prompt and detailed answers! I've updated the specs in the post a bit. I did some tests to compare with my MacBook Air 2011, which shouldn't have very good performance. It definitely struggles with smoke. And with F5, I can see the FPS dropping down to 20. On the XPS, the FPS is...

What difference does "Video Memory Usage" setting do?

Hi! I'm new to Factorio, just bought it and still can't find a reason for not buying this sooner, I love it! The only thing is, I can't seem to get it running as smoothly as the different YouTube videos I've seen from it, and I've got *nothing* build yet compared to the massive factories I've seen o...
