Re: Looking for a mod to tweak bullet damage.

I don't know either, but it's a good instance to start learning writing an own mod. ;)
It's a very easy change.
But, I get, that it might not be for everyone

Re: [MOD 1.1] Sea Block Pack 0.5.12

Is it intended that in red science, the very first one, the only way to get lead is by sorting rubyte ore to lead ore. Issue is that it gives nickel ore as well, but nickel has no uses whatsoever until in green science. Can't even process it, so all that can be done is stockpile it somewhere in a w...

Re: Friday Facts #391 - 2023 recap

Thank you very much for the continued support and further development of Factorio, which has become far more than a game to me.
I'm very exited for all the new 2.0 feature and space age extension. It will be huge, when it drops; hopefully somewhere in 2024.

Re: Friday Facts #387 - Swimming in lava

Steampower needs lots of water. Nuclear even more. I disagree ! I share your questionning though, but the steam used for nuclear being "hotter" it contain more energy per unit, thus requiring less water for the same amount of electricity so it would be the better option in case of limited...

Re: Friday Facts #387 - Swimming in lava

I wonder, how power is generated on Vulcanus.
Solar will work, of course.
Steampower needs lots of water. Nuclear even more.
When you have to process sulfuric acid first, it can be a quite risky endeavour.

Re: New Gamer PC, poor factorio performance

Maybe also try the savefile on somebody else's computer. You can also try to run some factorio benchmarks from this site and check, if you get reasonable/comparable results for those other maps. https://factoriobox.1au.us If unlucky, it's just 7 UPS to 11.2 UPS, which is 60% better, but I would have...

Re: Friday Facts #379 - Abstract rewiring

A refactoring was imminent! Glad, you are just doing it! I love the changes. When the focus is also more on remote actions with the expansion, I'd really love, that the replay function records the viewing point and zoom, basically what has really been shown on the screen. Otherwise, you just see th...

Re: Friday Facts #378 - Trains on another level

It's not just running it overnight though. Sometimes there are long stretches where I literally have nothing to do except wait. And that's true for this game AND Satisfactory. Don't get me wrong, I love the game. It's just that it needs a little something extra - like vanilla recyclers and vanilla ...

Re: Flare Stack (Vanilla)

With respect, even with that overhaul it's still possible to have too much of one resource and plenty of the others, to the point that exchanging one oil-based resource for another won't solve the problem, it'll exacerbate it instead. A flare stack is a viable solution and doesn't trivialize anythi...

Re: Friday Facts #378 - Trains on another level

Hello, I don't understand something. Is there a big use for second layer trains? I saw many maps for factorio and it seems to me that people were fine with 1 layer. City-blocks or not. It'll offer a lot more possibilities to increase train throughput, when bases get bigger. Also, it'll offer more p...

Simply amazed. Didn't expect that, but it's beautiful. That will elevate the usage of trains immensely.
IMO. Good call to focus on this

Did you ever consider removing the restriction that rails needed to be aligned to the 2x2 grid, so blueprints with rails could be moved by a single tile?
I guess, that would be hell. Imagine, you start two different independent rail networks, and then... they are off... :shock:

V2 vanilla without Space Age, probably not. Only, if it gets released way before Space Age.

Re: Increase Big Electric Pole Wire Reach to 32 to = Chunk Size

I think making big-electric-pole wire reach equal 32 would be bad. This would allow setups that would have exactly 1 big-electric-pole in every chunk in repeating pattern, but since power poles can have at most 5 copper connections to other electric poles, in most cases placing 1 big-electric-pole ...

I also miss the opportunity to buff belts with quality. IMO it would be enough, if you don't have different speeds at each stage, but at least at some stages. And blue belt only, would also be enough. I would imagine something like: - normal 45 items per sec. - uncommon 60 (double red belt) - rare ...
