Re: Excessive savefile load times
The issue is your blueprint library. It's *HUGE* - 613 megabytes. Every time you load a save file (or create one) the game starts transferring the library into the save so the contents can be used.
You can resolve the issue by trimming some 95% of what you have in the library. Or just delete it ...

Re: Excessive savefile load times
** -- I'm vaguely aware of some UPS issues with creative-mod, but I'm nervous to part with it, as I run a parallel creative-save for blueprinting and design-tinkering purposes, which is kind of a medium-sized deal for a multiplayer session being planned. I may end up disabling this mod for the ...

Excessive savefile load times
I initially posted at https://forums.factorio.com/113149. I dropped Factorio in April of 2023, back at base v1.1.76, with a savefile that was 210mb and had 415 hours on it. Earlier this year, I'd performed a system re-format, and was running Factorio v1.1.107, with roughly a dozen or so mods all ...

Specific version
Is there any way to obtain this specific full-kit version of the game? In Steam, I can revert either as far back as v1.1.87, or back to v0.18.x. My modded savefiles are intact after a hiatus from last playing the game back in April 2023. During that hiatus, the SSD was re-imaged and Windows 11 was ...

Small curiosity: What exactly is a "building store"?
I mostly follow my own best practice guidelines within reason.
There's no noticeable performance gain in filtering from 5 items to 3, but when connecting LTN to a building store filtering down from 100 items to 10 certainly is a good idea.
(Emphasis not in original)
Hi there! The underlying ...

Re: [1.16.3] Trains dispatched to stations without temporary GPS tag, thus going to wrong provider/requesters
1) Why doesn't LTN detect that adding the GPS temporary stop fails? Shouldn't that output a message and flag the station a broken / red light? Sending a train there should fail and pick another station.
In essence, I think an A-or-B outcome of this is already the case, as discussed above. A ...

Re: Should LTN use the vanilla train limit?
I sometimes order myself a train, dump all my wood in it and send it to a wood consumer manually. Potentially the station could overflow there.
By sheer accident, my personal gameplay habit on this particular issue seems to be a valid workaround for the error case you're describing. If I want a ...

Hi there! Coming back to Factorio after some time off. I'd been using the standalone Warehouses mod, and would prefer to continue doing so in my main save.

Howdy. Base v0.18.x (currently 0.18.9) LTN v1.12.3.
My issue is that Depot parking spots can sometimes be over-partitioned, resulting in trains dangling out on the mainlines heading into the Depot. This is more pronounced near high-volume requester locations.

Zooming/scrolling should be much easier on the eyes.
Oh, that would be totally awesome. It would also come in handy when actually *creating* a blueprint and when it comes to removing single items which don't belong there. For large blueprints, it's really tedious to click on a single inserter ...
