I'm having a similar problem... I didn't play the game since 0.17, so I'm not sure when this behavior changed, but electric poles aren't acting like before. Trying to build the rightmost pole gives this chaotic mess of wires: wire-mess.png I've noticed the problem in this (very common) situation: wi...

Still happening...
Disabling "Minimize on focus loss" fix the problem, though.

I really like this idea, but I think is much more a mod's job than vanilla's.

TL;DR Queuing a research should queue all required research instead of giving a error message. What ? Consider that, in a new world, you want to rush the Fast Inserter technology. You open the Tech Tree , click in the Fast Inserter icon and click Start Research . Instead of showing a tooltip statin...

Agreed... This is in my wish list for the new tech tree window.

I have multiple issues with the tech tree window... This is one of them!

Agree with OP... If the new arrangement of the tech tree is to make each science research more specific, then using military on power armor II and portable nuclear is a step against it.

Oh, yes, please!!! It would be of great help in the early stages of the game, where resource micro management is a big part of the job.

Yes, please... The current auto ghost is kind of annoying, because I'm making the last 6 belts and placing "ghost ghost ghost ghost"...

This means that 5 Burner mining drill will feed 4 Stone furnaces now.

Let me share my (UX professional biased) experience with the tutorial... About the first part: - Compilatron takes forever to explain what (and how) to do next. - The objectives list checked "mine stone" after first stone was collected, but that isn't enough to make anything. - Compilatron...

Mistages. Mistages everywhere... :p

Fantastic job, by the way... Thank you! = ]

What about the Splitter changes? "Taking more time" means not implementing this for now?

I still think that we should have a "zipper" or a checkbox on splitters to change it's behavior.

You guys are the best!

The devs "curated" this solution as "the one true solution", but it really looks as ugly as a ugly hack can look.
As I understand, another entity would be ideal.

because i'm sending the full barrels to remote outposts for mining uranium (and those are not connected to the network), so i want to always have some full barrels available and the total amount to be adjusted upwards when/if i start needing more because of uranium mining expansion You are adding s...

After reading this posts and tried the ingame loaders I've changed my mind completely... Loaders aren't overpowered at all, if you consider a commom factory. The only logistics related item that I wanted implemented was a real lane spliter (I really hate that undergroung belt ugly hack). But now I w...
