Big plus one from me.

Sounds a bit like this mod: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/rigor-module

It makes sense in that case that the editor deleted some entities. Unfortunately this is a "Won't fix" for the moment, since being able to handle this correctly would require refactoring a large partion of the code base, which is not a priority at the moment.

Are you sure you mean cloning ? Cloning is not something players typically do. Do you maybe mean copy-and-pasting?

And if you were really doing cloning then there's an chance this is out of our hands, since some editor commands don't provide the API events our code expected. Were you in the editor ...

SE also has a few cases where this would be useful. It would be great if mods could more ways to provide the "cannot build here" player feedback.

SE would benefit from this. There's some of our recipes that should have complex product probabilities. And the only reason we didn't do it is because the tooltip don't provide good player feedback. A tooltip on the tooltip could help clear things up for the player.

Obviously they are not the same and will never be.

Nothing should, all could.

Never say never

Every time I want to add a pin I forgot what button to press. Even after pressing buttons I would expect does nothing, so I give up. O don't know how to create a pin now even.

A button by the minimap would be amazing, and exactly where expected

It seems that currently all simulations (tips-and-tricks, and menu-simulations) have their zooms capped. Meaning you cannot zoom out as far. I'm not sure what was the case in Factorio 2.0, but I remember in Factorio 1.1 there was seemingly no cap.

I assume the cap is in place for different reasons ...

This would be awesome. Many times I've that this would be the intuitive behaviour, since the belts are all connected now.

So some form of victory poles are still possible? You just need a lot more victory poles

I can only tell they're on route if it's to a unscheduled one, cause then I can see the contrast difference.

An alternative solution would to have a extra tooltip field "Scheduled for build" or something. This is the better option IMO, since it's always clear.

This would be really useful for Space Exploration. Currently we need to place a floating GUI at the right pixel location, including accomodating for the schedule GUI being wider sometimes.

There should be a little window with a search bar next to the schedule window. Pretty sure there you can type the zone name, and it will show you all stops on that zone.

I've lost count about the amount of times I've clicked on an inserters filter only to realize it's not enabled yet.

Maybe related to 127266?

Ran into this many times before too.

Can't you just reduce the amount of ingredients required? Basically, what's the difference between: and

This is a cool idea! A little tricky to implement though because the way electricity works is not very moddable through the API.

I did write this article a while ago that includes some older mods that did similar things. Some info is a little outdated due to 2.0 release, but most of it is still ...
