Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth

I mean nobody will force you to use loaders, and your old chests setup will work just as it is

This is true. As i stated at the end:

But it would also save me the mess of all this above.

I am not totally against it, I am a bit splitted over it. I know, it will allow more things, and will make ...

Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth

Hi, here are my 2 Cents:

I think something like this:

Is a bit overpowered, because it doesn't need more space than this Solution here for the chest loading and deloading part and it makes things much more easier than this Solution here: http://factorio.kalabint ...

Re: Research progress visualization

This Silly Fly has some good ideas:
Just a quick UI/Visual idea - have the research bar have another color (lighter shade of green?) to show the amount of research currently done by labs.
That is - if you research a technology with 20 steps, you currently done 6 units, and you have 3 labs currently ...

Re: Electric locomotives

Maglev's been done? How about building a hyperloop?

I don't think that Maglev is already in the Game (as mod). But i also don't think so that its a good idea for the Game.

It would need a new type of (very expensive) Rails.
Also i think it would take a bit of the Fun of the Game, because Items ...

Re: Electric locomotives

Electric trains should require fancy cables hanging along the rail, just like in real life. :D Magically getting powered by transformers sitting next to the rail makes no sense in a game striving for a bit of realism like this.

Like this (random images from google) except in isometric factorio art ...

Re: Let's see your clever builds

@hoho This is absolutely not a stupid question, because its true...

First example: I could let the Violet and blue ones going on around the red and greens, the need for this is at max 2 underground belts.

But what I like is, that I have a buffer that way.

BTW: you better don't see the rest of my ...

The idea behind it is ...

Re: Logistics/Construction Networks

@Nondre I just reread your Post
With
segmented networks
you mean for example a Roboport which is only capable of spanning up a Logistic network and vice versa?
So you can span up a Construction Network with much less Roboports, and they are still connected together?

Correct me if I'm wrong :)

Re: Logistics/Construction Networks

Hi, i have a idea what he maybe ment it: In my case its a Requester chest, followed with arms and chest, and at the end a passive provider chest. That's a Storage ;) but because the Requester chest setting is set to the contend of the Passive Provider chest, it builds a loop.

Solution: Limit the ...
