Nice flame war there... Anyway... without wanting to restarting it... did i understand correctly that ...?

You always want to run the fusion power plant at 100% or not at all - so unlike nuclear, where your smart NPP would just insert nuclear cells when you are getting low on steam, with fusion you ...

Please make the ingame Updater show the amount of MB to download and not a generic "it quite a lot to download and can take a long time".

basically what the title says: let us read "unfulfilled logistic requests" via wires

Instead of showing the red text that it will take a long time.

Could you, instead of stating that updating can take long, show how much MB its to download?

Thanks for the report, this is not a bug. A planet can request items from space platforms which aren't requested by space platforms. Zero-sized construction requests block planet requests, so that the item is not immediately sent down. Such requests are cleared when your platform leaves the orbit ...

Can we please get "read unfulfilled logistic requests" via wires?

Also allowing inserters to insert into landing pod hubs would be an alternative. Otherwise its difficult to keep stuff clean.

There is no shattered planet that you can reach (or i missed something).

The platform flies forever or until its destroyed.

seems correct?

since concrete needs brick + water + iron ore

@devs - maybe add some /kill-myself command?

because respawning and reclaiming your dead body could be an easy solution.


@OP:
get yourself https://mods.factorio.com/mod/some-luaconsole

and execute:

game.player.teleport({0,0})

change coordinates if needed.

you have to be admin, you wont ...

This happens when you load another broken mod.

For example, if you add https://mods.factorio.com/mod/some-npp (which i didnt have had the time to fix yet) factorio will try to disable "quality"

Is there an inplace update (after buying space age) or do we need to download the full 4 GB?

looks like we are back to organ harvesting of the native populations. XD

Also: consider looking into your "dmesg" if you get these freezes and also look up your ram with "free -m" to see if your swap is full and/or your ram is free (free = there was something that is gone now; usually linux will keep all files you open in ram until it needs ram, then it flushes these VFS ...

yay for more linux! <3

Thanks for looking into my fork-save report.

Actually, maybe the Linux guys will correct me, but there doesn’t seem to be any official way to detect your process has been killed due to OOM. So this whole thing would go into “not a bug”.

What ...

If I read that correctly, I was at 28GB with the main process, out of 32 gb my laptop has...

Anyway: I now loaded factorio from the previous sucessful autosave, which is not that far off the one that exploded ... it only needs 9 GB ram ... are there maybe some memleaks? ^^

I let it run and do ...

I use the fork-saving (cant remember how you named it in game).

I explored in editor mode and run a few commands to further afk explore, as mapgen takes a while, which made the map quite big and was generating during the fork-saving, since fork uses copy on write memory allocation i guess it went ...

Since you started renaming things ...

Can we please get the one most annoying thing in the whole factorio (modding api) renamed?

Namely:

force

to something like faction

For example placing an entity and reading the api docs and thinking "oh there is force" and intuitively means for me to ...

finally XD
