My entire thought process behind this thread is just "Hey, lubricant is kinda odd compared to all the other recipes. Is this intentional? If not maybe fix it with a second recipe." While following the FFF Threads for the Oil change happened in 17.60 i remember, that the lubricant "issue" is known a...

Looks like you really don't get the point. Of course everyone loves oil processing puzzle, chemical products balancing, etc. But lubricant shortage isn't a puzzle. It is potentially unavoidable deadlock. Current tools allow to minimize chances of this deadlock, but it is always potentially possible...

My opinion is, that this "problem" is a certain kind of puzzle, which can be solved by balancing and prioritizing usage of excess by-products.
Not a flaw, but a small example in an not so crucial area of what could be done to make the game more challenging.

What's the thinking behind making the whole Jivolite Crystal leaching process Fluoric negative? I know it's that way in Angels, but Seablock adds the whole Calcium Sulfate --> Lime --> Acid Gas --> Extra Hydro-Fluoric process on top, but it still doesn't produce enough to be HFl positive. Shouldn't...

Having played the game for a while now and reading every FFF I know that the staff are perfectionists and while this is not high on their priority at all I would like to think it rates some where on their meter of things to fix. I could have just gone to the post and downloaded and unzipped it, I c...

Seablock Pack works the best, if you choose exactly the mods from https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=190&t=43759#p253582 -> Section Mod-list with its versions. Also it's recommended to use default mod settings. (of course :D) The fact, that this thread is currently not overloaded with probl...

You hardly need to explore far - unless maybe if you're running huge tech cost multipliers ? Wait, by "new seed generators", are you talking about getting all the 3 types ? Otherwise, you could totally make new gardens, have you researched all the biotechs yet ? I think, he is talking about the 3 a...

Are there any major reasons to use barreling instead of fluid transfer via tanks, fluid wagons, etc? Does it help you get around late game pipe throughout problems or something like that? Starting a seablock run and didn’t use barreling last time either... not sure quite why we would absolutely wan...

Trying SeaBlock again, the last time I played it green algae required the mineralized water and co2 from the very beginning. Now green algae 1 just needs water, while green algae 2 needs them. While green algae 2 is faster and produces twice the algae from what I can tell the mineralized water requ...

Yeah I did lazy bastard. It was pretty crude but since the goal is one rocket it's not like it needs to be organized. First impression could be caused by second assumption :D How did you force yourself to do it :D The challenge was not crude, my base was. I didn't force myself, I wanted to do it. P...

Yes, exactly. If nothing is to be saved, it can close like before.

In this case you might want to check this signal: Disable Warnings (optional) - Suppresses warnings, like no station supplying x found, for this Requester. (default=0 false) See: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=214&t=51072 I recommend LTN-Tracker (actually the beta version: https://mods....

I actually have the opposite issue to this, i would really like to be able to disable the "no station supplying x" messages while retaining the actual dispatch messages as i have a huge (200+ station) LTN network in my angelbobs layout and the number of messages being spammed is getting ridiculous ...

Here is my most advanced base, which had 60 hours in 0.15/0.16 with xander 1.5.
I restarted later, because terrain was screwed up in 0.16, but never got that far again.
I had advanced circuits, but no blue science yet.

OK, searched for the wrong words Thanks for merging.
Hiding the close-button sounds nice, too. It's maybe possible in linux to configure for a certain app, but not that easy, it seems.

I run Factorio on Linux Mint, Standalone Version. While I play Factorio in windowed mode, I can close the window with the X-Button on top right. It just closes the window without warning or autosave and I assume it's intended behaviour, because the log file does not say anything about an error. (see...

It's interesting, that's quite a lot of people with 1 post only accounts in this friday facts thread. Not sure it's only this time, or it's always happen with FF. It's frequent. Not for all FFFs, but it's almost systematic on significant changes. Funny that simple color change became significant to...

My opinion is, that it's not bad to add a bit of saturation and brightness. But maybe not so much. More like halfway or less. The desert orange is also very much too much, almost stinging. Map view is a lot better. The biggest problem I have with the nighttime blue-ish look. I don't think, the color...
