Re: Radar/inventory researched, and new players.

So when the game is being hosted by me after saving the map, is there something i can turn on, to get these base game functions back?

Radar/inventory researched, and new players.

If you join a game with the upgraded inventory and radar/minimap upgrades(being able to see the ground) researched, you will not get these features if you create a character after they're researched.

Re: Friday Facts #224 - Bots versus belts

You don't like bots? Don't use them. Trains and belts are a unique challenge, that should not be forced on a player.

Re: Friday Facts #198 - Rail segment visualisation

The arrows that are already present can be added at the beginning and ending of each block, facing the direction(s) traffic needs to go, in a color that separates them from the other rail blocks. You might also just align the debug whisker plot looking lines to the signals themselves, parallel to th...

Re: Deconstruction Planner

Absolutely beautiful. I just designed a huge mining site, and used passive providers on the drills rather than belts, and surrounded it, and the furnaces with quite a few roboports. Now I cant see the ground :D

Re: Logistics/Construction Networks

Being able to just flip a switch and shut down logistics or construction bots would be nice, and allow you to do both manually for the interim.

Re: Logistics/Construction Networks

Changing the color would be awesome, but not the ultimate goal I had in mind. However, I haven't made a base around this idea yet, and I could just smart inserter construction bots into a Roboport in each segment...not technically the ultimate goal either, but I suppose there are bigger fish to fry ...

Deconstruction Planner

I just read the patch notes for 11.15. Is there a specific rationale behind the reason Roboport connections are removed when you mouse over a GUI element, rather than the alternative? I know I would LOVE the Roboport lines to be gone when I'm trying to deconstruct things around my Central Storage.

Re: Logistics/Construction Networks

Using segmented logistics networks, you can provide a certain number of drones dedicated solely to the task they are in range of, i.e. having drills and furnaces in one logistics network, being provided a fixed number of drones, while having another segmented logistics network at your main base, con...

Logistics/Construction Networks

I hope this is the right category for this, so here goes: I would like to have segmented Roboport networks, by Logistics Networks only. I know, but I'm needy. So, if Roboports connect every 50 tiles, to allow segmented Logistics Networks, then you could allow Roboports to connect every 100 tiles, fo...

Re: Friday Facts #67 - Happy new year

This is really good news. My 110 hour map has triple inserters(fast, long, fast) on the heavy traffic areas, and will bring my fps back up from ~8. Once the belts get reworked, the only thing that will be lagging the map is the sheer size.

Re: Can't connect to a 50+ hour game

I've got a 100+ hour map, and i have had to remove all landmines, walls, accumulators, and steam engines, and set game.alwaysday. I finally got someone connected. Even then, the game was spotty, and the frame-rate was ~10. I have a post on tips to connect in multiplayer somewhere around here, but so...

Re: Tips to connect in multiplayer.

Saving the game, and restarting the program may be a small help as well. I have currently an 80+ hour save, and it does get a bit sluggish if you have made major modifications to the map.

Tips to connect in multiplayer.

All the effort i have put into connecting to this game i feel i should share a few things. Generally when the map is huuuuuuge, I will have a single point from which to kill power. Kill said power. Allow all the drones to settle. Clear your logistics queue on your inventory. Disable your autosave. y...
