It's quite annoying when someone answer you while ignoring what you said (even if I was in part wrong when I said they were no longer moving around the walls) :? Im pretty sure @serenity just wanted to help. I wouldnt want to be treated like that if want to help even if im completely beside the poi...

The point is that moving around them takes them more time so your turrets get more shots

My point is they are no longer moving around them.
Did you read the fucking post ?

Unexpected harshness. Im not sure if i want to offer my help next time.

No power is not an alert, which is shown. I cannot remember that it was the case in the past

I remember that biters are sometimes more aggressive and attack the nearest things.
Btw: interesting dragon teeth design. I used them mostly to distract bigger biters together with a solid wall

Are your turrets near enough to attrack the biters?

Chain signals get their state from a rail signal. The suggestion that this could be overridden with a circuit network connection is stupid, because it would literally stop them from being a chain signal. If you want the chain signal to change, change the rail signal it is chained from. I mean, that...

I distance myself from this. I dont think it's helpful to push the conflict like this

It is a very simple addition to the game that will remove the headache from a lot of players According to rseding it's not sooo simple. ... This is what so many people on the suggestions thread fail to understand. Also, a signal is a signal is a signal. It makes no sense for one type of signal to h...

Usually, you can remove armor or personal roboport to reset it. The homeless bots will then fly to the nearest regular roboport. You also need to top up the bots in inventory.

and despite no problems being raised about it, everyone keeps derailing the thread with concerns like this I just dont want more streamlining like powerless combinators or removing pulse signals. which aren't even part of the proposed solution. That's not derailing, it's a valid concern. Esp. becau...

I fail to see, why this issue is so important that you guys post text wall after text wall. I rather want the devs to implement truly important stuff and more important, dont trivialize the game in the name of consistency. The behaviour could be accepted as it is like you accept laws of nature. Don'...

Well Nilaus got fired and now plays Factorio the whole day. Many people are fired everyday, and not all of them are because of a Factorio addiction. The way you wrote this implies it was the case for Nilaus. Are you sure you're that much informed ? No, it doesn't imply it. You interpret it into my ...

I would bet, this idea is older.
But i kind of agree now, considering the new feature to place blueprints from zoomed out map view.

Backward compatibility is dead weight. It's wise to remove it to increase maintainability by reducing lines of code and outdated logic You can remove anything you want, just keep that outdated code in a separate exe. Now I'm going to download OldFactoro.exe, can Factorio do it for me? Interesting i...

You haven't lost them. On your Factorio account, you can download any major version all the way back to 0.6.4. Yes, I know I can turn the time with a little mess. Why I can't do this with a zero clicks? Would it be possible to rename Factorio017.exe to SeamlessConverter017.exe and insert it into th...

[...] The optimal option is make all entites behave the same by the same rules under low power. But I dont think it's realistic How is this unrealistic? Throughout my posts, I've outlined how electrical networks could be used to implement logic clocks that keep all logic devices operating within th...

You forgot: 3. Do nothing, ...

Agreed. But with the reason that it's a minor issue, which has almost no Impact for most players.

I think there are only 2 realistic options: 1. Combinators output nothing in low power. 2. Combinator work without power 1. does not really help, but just makes the it more obvious, that low power is bad 2. Is a severe dumb down imo and I really dont want it. The optimal option is make all entites b...

But it's a pulse through a combinator, which obscures it. A pure pulse is one tick long. A pulse from an inserter has to be obscured identically and in sync. I'm not sure what you mean by "obscure". Combinators, inserters, and belts can all be set up to generate pulses. The difference is that pulse...
