[Lou][2.0.42] Blueprints with Spidertron cannot be rotated

As a result of this fix, any blueprint with a spidertron in it can no longer be rotated. I'm not quite sure why since our Spider pal appears to have vertical, horizontal and diagonal symmetry. It sure would be handy of the Spidertron could have this rotate attribute.

Re: [2.0.41] Blueprints do not always display inventory

That's a bit disappointing given the wood for wooden chests showing up in the blueprint display as fuel, when it isn't. I hope the improvement request will receive positive attention instead.

[2.0.41] Blueprints do not always display inventory

This exists as of 2.0 GA, I expect. I created an Idea & Improvement thread to show item requests , but I now think this is a bug; let me explain.

We have long been able to make a locomotive blueprint which requests fuel. The blueprint will show the amount of fuel in the components section of the ...

[2.0.41 vanilla] Underground belt bug

(I am quite sure this is a duplicate, but I still wanted to record this just in case it is not.)

In the release notes for 2.0.40 , there is an entry reading "Fixed another bug related to smart underground belt building." There is no bug ID to go with it, so I'm not sure if the intent was to fix the ...

which one? :P

Re: Version 2.0.34



- Drag building produces one merge undo action per the whole drag, instead of the individual undo actions for every entity built.

When will this be reverted? It's terrible :( .

Re: [2.0.28] Duping Spidertron Equipment

I'll give it a try.

I did try a few reproduction attempts in the live save. The first trial was to send a spidertron to a planet's surface and none of the requisite items. The construction bots on the planet's surface built the spider with items. The next trial was to use a spidertron on Nauvis ...

[2.0.28] Duping Spidertron Equipment

This very likely existed in 2.0.27.

If you ghost a spidertron with equipment in it (like this one), and have a construction bot build it, it will start off life with equipment. This spider seems to start with 3 legendary portable fission reactors, 8 legendary exoskeletons, 5 legendary toolbelt ...

With 2.0 we are able to make blueprints and have bots bring items to machines and trains and spidertrons and other entities. But the blueprints don't show these blueprinted item requests, and they should.

If you make a train and request fuel for the locomotives, you can make a blueprint with the ...

Re: [2.0.24 Vanilla] Game crash while saving the game

This seems to be fairly reproduceable. The save from which the reproduction is made is attached. Video, including user inputs, are also available on YouTube.

Note: This savegame is from bp100-2.1.2 whereas the original savegame is bp100-2.1.1.

Run vanilla Factorio v1.1.110
