Something I find myself doing a lot is to search for the same item/fluid in different menus over and over again. This is something I have tried to improve in my mod Foofle and I'm using those features very frequently, but there's a big limitation on the amount of integrations I can do in a mod. For ...

Most of this sounds great, but I'd also like to request some other features: Have the possibility for mods to add content to a Factoriopedia page, for example a button that links to a search mod to search for this item. Or add content to the Factoriopedia page about how many of that item has been pr...

Something that is currently very difficult, and requires O(log n) time, is to take the maximum or minimum value from a circuit. So that would be a great fit for the selector. "Select maximum value(s)" + "Select minimum value(s)" Average value is currently easy to do with combinat...

Press E instead of Enter? most dialog use E Yes, E works. But the big problem here is that based on things that was done before, a save was loaded when the "Delete" button was pressed - which should not happen . The same bug happens if you click on a save, press "Delete" -> &quo...

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/LuaGuiElement.html "flow": An invisible container that lays out its children either horizontally or vertically. The root GUI elements (top, left, center and screen; see LuaGui) are flows. "empty-widget": An empty element that just exists. The r...

How to reproduce: - Go to load game - Select a save in the left list - Press "Delete" on keyboard, a window will pop up and ask you if you want to delete the save - Press "Enter" on keyboard, nothing happens (Expected behavior: Save would be deleted) - Use the mouse to click &quo...

I don't want to complain too much because Factorio is already an awesome game, but... Feature-complete when you can't see your own characters exact HP/MaxHP? I think there is still a few things you can add before you call it feature-complete.

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/index.html says it's "0.18.47" in the top-right corner.

And I don't think it's a caching problem on my side, I have tried all tips shown in https://xkcd.com/1854/ , and I have also tried using a private browsing window.

it would seem that you are mistaken, the post was made a few minutes ago AFTER the update.

Huh, it appears that you are right. Forum is not showing the correct time for me it seems. Anyway, I didn't have any problem at all downloading it just a few minutes after 11:00.

You posted this on 10:28 am but 1.0.0 was released at 11:00 am. You must learn patience.

Try again now.

TL;DR There should be a way to view the exact numeric HP value of your own character (not just the HP bar that shows up when you are damaged) What ? When playing Factorio in Multiplayer you can easily see how much HP others have (e.g. "135/350") by hovering over them. This is not possible...

First off, I'm a big fan of the JavaScript framework Vue.js and I find GUIs to be the most frustrating part about Factorio modding. Naturally, for those of you who are familiar with Vue.js, I don't really expect Factorio to provide similar functionality. But I am however wondering how big the perfor...

Huh, thanks, I was not aware of these. It does indeed look like exactly what I was looking for!

And here I thought I was coming up with something new... you folks think of everything

Parts of Factorio are already using JSON. Considering how well-known the format is and the fact that some mods already have their own JSON implementation, I'd like to see a JSON serialization/deserialization API exposed for modders to use. I bet that performance-wise it is much more efficient to do ...

Yep, I was just about to report the same thing. Was very happy to see it added but it should be documented how to use it. Is it an array of strings? (of types such as "item", "fluid" etc.?)

By the way, your title should be `[0.18.25]`

Overall great changes - especially the log improvements (although it might make my current awesome Jenkinsfile obsolete - see my mods on GitHub if you're curious) A notable change with the electric stats is that the Satisfaction/Production/Accumulator charge are next to each other in a single row, a...

Great news as always, but I am wondering a bit about the differences between "Consumption" / "Max Consumption" / "Constant Consumption". To me, "Consumption" feels like it should be either "Max Consumption" or "Constant Consumption". What i...

Are there any plans to upgrade Angel's Bio Processing to 0.17 ? https://mods.factorio.com/mod/angelsbioprocessing

Mod settings or.... mod settings? If the GUI for modifying which mods are enabled is called "Mod settings", then what should be the name of the GUI where you can change the settings for all the mods? Like enabling/disabling certain ores in Bob's Ores, or changing the per-player configurat...

Ever since Achievements were introduced there's been a "Complete the game in 8 hours" achievement. This was however introduced in 0.14 I think, when recipes for science packs were different and there were only four kinds of science packs. Luckily I managed to finish the game in 6 hours bac...
