See this image https://i.imgur.com/9CXh5if.png A section of map view is not revealed by radars. Clicking on the station dot opens the train instead, even if the train edge is not highlighted white. You can go significantly out of train-clicking range to the bottom right and still have the yellow cur...

I never realised this was already how the command console version with text works. I really want this even more now for the icon picker.

TL;DR When using the emoji rich text labels in places in game especially in parameterised blueprints and train station blueprints in 2.0, it would be useful for accessibility and legibility when in large modpacks to also either have, or to be able to toggle, the TEXT version of the icon after. What...

Hooray, I did a thing!

Thanks for the good work guys. Eagerly waiting for Space Age.

I'm hoping that the new parameterised blueprints thing will work for my usecase well, as being able to pick the icon and have it use the name after should fit. It alleviates this issue a fair bit, especially in my own personal usecase, but being able to keybind an emoji would be nice. Bonuses for ke...

What did you do? Build a station that has a circuit controlled limit (In my specific case it was an arithmetic combinator tied to a storage tank, which divided the liquid by 25000 and set the output as [L]) It all works fine. Make a new station, with a storage tank that does not meet the requiremen...

TLDR: The emoji/icon button in things like train station naming needs a keybind option. What: Make a keybinding that opens the emoji / icon list. Also nice would be an option or a default to set focus to the search box (Ctrl+F already does this, but is an extra needed UX step). Why: Having to go mou...

Forget about it. The modding API is not made for this. Track sections might not be accessible at all through the API. This doesn't require accessing track sections, for a quick mod that gives just the arrows. Find any signals, use a look up table to work out the offset for an arrow, draw an arrow p...

Welp, apparently I'm at least the third person along to think of this. I kind of like the mini signal arrows by DaleStan too, although they're quite busy, they make the "WRONG WAY" aspect quite clear. Two more demonstration images I made, to hopefully make it clear how useful these are for...

Yeah Durr, that's definitely a nice way to get the same (notably missing at the moment) information to the user.

Image: https://i.imgur.com/6xanWP3.png By adding arrows a shown, it immediately becomes much more obvious that you've screwed up signal placement, as there would be two arrows "colliding". Bonus points if such a collision was somehow indicated more clearly with an icon or something that in...

If you're not aware, you can hover over logistics chests (providers and requesters) and be shown how many items are present, but also how many are currently on their way or about to be picked up. Similarly in the player or chest logistics request screen, hovering over an item shows how many are on t...

Would love to see some more opinions on this. In my own, this is something no one realises they want until they have it.

TL;DR A hotkey or button for the action bar that allows you to force your personal construction bots out to solve any jobs they are able to. Alternatively, an action bar toggle: Prefer personal construction Yes/No: When you are near construction ghosts that you have the items for, even if already r...

As long as I’m spamming advice, I assume that you’re using helmod, and you have been using helmod through a rocket launch or two of AB, but you’re all grown up now. You need to upgrade to YAFC. https://github.com/ShadowTheAge/yafc Looks nice for planning when not playing, however I'm going to try t...

I do, sporadically. For instance, I've not updated for a little bit since the smelter building was apparently introduced. That's gonna break lots of my stuff, so I want to make sure I do that updates when I've got time to fix everything. Otherwise I'll do it as part of my pymods todo list. Fix this,...

I'm having the same issue (GTX 980 on my end) but didn't find a workaround yet. I sometimes have that problem with other mods too tho (or at least I remember it doing the same thing when playing Space Exploration, which is another rather graphics heavy mod). I'll play around with my graphics settin...

I've never noticed that in Helmod. But I run with "show disabled" and "Show hidden" off, as I only want recipes I can *currently* use to show up. If you have those enabled, I don't know. If you don't, I don't know how or what you're seeing (and I'm not at home atm to check my gam...

Cheers kingarthur Unrelated: I seem to be getting stutters when moving quickly around my base. My ticks in the debug info seem perfectly fine, and my cpu load isn't particularly noteworthy. Sitting still completely solves it. Zooming right in does too. I have 16GB RAM, so don't believe it's a paging...

Just tossing up if I want to do something like go all in on something cheap for all the basics, only branching out for stuff like Arqad honey / chitini / milk etc.
