Okay, what's the logic behind it not being a bug?

Picture and subject basically says it all. I could place landfill over an offshore pump which made it an.... inland pump?!. I would expect either the landfill to not be allowed to be placed over the offshore pump, or for the offshore ...

Hi Guys,

our multiplayer game has just come to a conclusion, some minor battles were seen, one very sprawling player sprawled all over and claimed victory. We were going to merge our forces and have a gander at eachothers base, shake hands, pat eachother on the back, etc but when we came to merge ...

We can no longer see eachothers stations in the available destinations, but we can see eachothers stations when we are looking at a station directly (I.E to rename a station). The station list in there is still ...

I'm loving it, I feel like the 2 friends I'm playing with may be enjoying it less as I had quite a successful defence plan and they both died last night but I didn't. so +1 to me yay! I think the biggest problem with people not using the forces mechanic for going against eachother is how difficult ...

My friend was sad on our PVP map when machineguns shoot through tanks and damage the person directly.

Let me set the scene. We're playing with forces still, I go out and attack my friends factory, have a little nibble at his wall and turrets with my tank, he comes out with his tank, we have a ...

This may be grabbed during the train condition rework (Or further re-factoring of the forces mechanic in the game). A couple of friends and I are doing a 1v1v1 game and 2 of us have just got to trains. We've noticed that both our train stations are showing up in the list of optional destinations ...

In the 0.12.5 version while playing multiplayer I am getting auto-saves every minute, regardless of the setting I use on launch. Also, instead of saving three, it is keeping all of them, I now have up to _autosave20 in my save file list.

Additionally, if I disable autosave entirely, it still ...

I think I know what's happening here. You said you've got up to autosave 20? I'm guessing you have autosave set to 20 minutes. I have 10 autosaves, and I have my autosave set to 10 minutes, and it is saving every minute. I think someone's switched over a value incorrectly. :) Someone needs a bottom ...

Yeah I know.. I understand that as well. I wasn't posting here expecting a fix or a change now. This is now a reach out to them to re-evaluate their decision earlier... Nothing more.. So thanks for the clarification anyway. But I did already know that. ^_^...

Sorry I didn't mean to come across as ...

I would much rather implore factorio Devs to rethink this kind of functionality. It can be standardised in a much more logical way. Thinking out loud if you have event subscriptions to the object in the cell the inserter is looking at, to monitor when inventories change, you have a subscription to ...

Oh damn... That is.... reallllly annoying.
I have no idea how i've not noticed it since then.. Maybe it was that far back.. maybe I read 0.11.6 and not 0.11.16....

I thought unified behaviour would be if there's a special slot for the resource, dont put into normal storage, otherwise, put into ...

Now I would call this a bug, because it worked before, and now this has been introduced.

Our map has a garage of sorts, self-contained on the outside of our factory, it has tanks and vehicles in it sitting in garage spots. This was fine before (version between 0.11.17 and 0.11.21). the last version ...

yeah I thought i'd give it a go none the less. As the "player" is a class that controls how the player interacts with the game, not the in-game character instance. So i presumed I could set how what the player is currently controlling (car, train, character, etc) via that setcontroller function. I ...

Hi, further to my code addition, I now have the function working faultlessly in-game.. but code I believed to be setting what controls what where why etc does not do what i expected it to do.

This is my code now:

remote.addinterface("skint",
{
enableTravel = function()
for _,c in ipairs(game ...

Beautiful, the remote.addinterface, right on the money. I knew about the ordering of how to access player/players from sp/mp and its syntax, but thanks for clarification anyway. And thanks for supplying the solution for me, muchas gracias

Hi Guys,

I'm running the latest version of factorio and i've come across a little niggly issue. My friend and I wanted to start, travel away from eachother, and each make factories ourselves, and work against eachother, then build up the possibility of using the rail system for other more railway ...

That would be my presumption as well, and when it reverses, the train itself is considered reversed, but the rolling stock (which hits the junction first before the train) is not travelling backwords as far as it's concerned, and so the controls freak out.

That would be my (semi) educated guess.

Hi Guys,

Replicatable, I've tested this in Multiplayer with my friend and we can both reproduce the issue.

When you are just locomotives in your consist (1 or many locomotives, but ONLY locomotives) when reversing you hold right to take a right junction and left to take a left junction.
When you ...
