Eventually we will promote this page to take the frontpage spot from "Recently updated". Will the "Weekly Highlights" also contain a "Recently Updated" section? I think it will fit nicely with the idea. :) If the "Recently Updated" page doesn't actually go aw...

Here's an example for you. Uses 4 Deciders and 1 Constant Combinator. I'm not all that great with these myself, so it's possible there's a better way, but this is what I came up with. Here's the test track I setup: Setup (small).jpg And here's the BP string for it: 0eNrNWluSozYU3Qvf0IUknq4kK8hn8pXqc...

Fix your other issue (105110) and it'll fix this one, too. The framerate drop is a result of your using openGL. See 104571.

Do a complete clean reinstall of your graphics drivers. Then in the game's main menu, you can disable the openGL by holding [CTRL]+[ALT] when clicking the Settings button. A new button will show at the bottom: The rest. Click that, then search for "opengl" and disable the "force-openg...

Afaik, "drain" does not contribute to that entity's pollution (though if your power is delivered by boilers, then it will contribute to theirs).

Logs would probably be helpful, but also: The game is getting stack at the skip cutscene screen and if i Alt Tab it shows the Loading Mods screen with 0% progress. This sounds odd to me because all of the loading should be done by the time the cut-scene even shows and you shouldn't need to alt+tab t...

This prevents me from reading train contents, with my current setup.

Actually, it doesn't.

This just gave me a reason to go through my mods and make sure the categories and tags are correct.

Hmm, not saying it's a bad idea or shouldn't be done or anything like that, but couldn't this be solved by having the station output the train's contents and then use combinators for the deciding logic? Then your train schedule logic would look something like this: OR {     Circuit.Condition(Green S...

unsigned 64 bit goes up to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 which is 18 "E"

Derp. Thanks for pointing that out. On my mobile, it was cutting some of the text off (perfectly at one of the commas, even), so I didn't realize I wasn't looking at the full number, there.

To know the max number, just look up "max 64 bit integer". Depending on if they are using signed or unsigned there, it's either going to be a little more than 9E or 18E, respectively. https://developers.google.com/discovery/v1/type-format#:~:text=A%2064%2Dbit%20signed%20integer,value%20of%...

Considering it only happens in map view, on the edge, and at certain zoom levels, is it worth the trouble, though?

Scaling and the fact that the belt (which is (obviously) not a solid color) is moving under the effect lines. Yeah, that's unavoidable.

Just to throw my 2 cents in here, I prefer them the way they are. I typically like early game being able to do direct miner-to-smelter, or even later, once I start belting, to be able to omit the extra work of output inserters (and their fuel) and storage. The fact that later once it's no longer nee...

There's also The Ruins Mod which will add, among other things, findable solar panels and accumulators. I like playing on map settings with resources really spread out (via RSO) and less enemies as a result, so I can wander around some from the starting area and find some of these goodies. :) I had o...

Hmm, I feel like the only way that this change matters is if you simply get rid of the graph. The names mean nothing.

My interpretation of it was the save time was their biggest beef, and that the save size was just an added bonus.

Well, you're testing the fasted settings of the compression alorithms, no? What are the results with e.g. zlib -9 vs zstd -9? It only becomes interesting if you're not IO bound, I think. Especially for MP download saves, IMHO. Was this thread not about save times to begin with? Why would you test o...

Yeah, but its filtered for crafting machine, which does have that key

In data stage they do. Not in the control stage.

Because LuaEntityPrototype , for any entity, does not have that key. Keys from prototypes in data stage do not always translate 1:1 to LuaEntityPrototype in control stage. Many aren't even available to read. Search that page for "energy source" (note no underscore) and you'll get hits on w...
