Re: Meaningful Content Update
This is not Starship Troopers where such creatures just evolve out of nothing. The natural evolution does only, what it needs to. It doesn't invent big bosses, it takes some millions of years for that. Last time i played vanilla, they evolved lightning fast from tiny to behemoth - when compared to ...

Re: Meaningful Content Update
I mean you are right, my opinion is based on anecdotal experiences with my small group of friends and family (about 10 or so) who all love the game, but have all grumbled about how basic and uninteresting the biters feel. The thing with Factorio is, that it actually (and despite of its surprisingly...

Re: Games Like Factorio
Heavy inspiration is heavy. I guess that's the price to pay when one creates a game so good and innovative that it gives birth to a new genre bearing the game's name. Doom-like, Diablo-like, ... Now, people create "Factorio-like" games. While some are indeed just copying mechanics and des...

Re: Friday Facts #348 - The final GUI update
That is the only feature that needs to get implemented to fix the usability issues for all color-blind and contrast/brightness sensitive/requiring players instead of fixing the problem for the most mainstream or loudest minorities only. To be fair, 5% of humans have some colorblindness, 8% of men -...

Re: Friday Facts #348 - The final GUI update
EDIT: Also, if we want to go for like separate colorblind modes that's supposed to be somehow suitable only for a certain type of person, ironically that's more work than to just make the game accessible for everyone from the get-go. It may also actually lead to crappy compromises, like just changi...

Re: Friday Facts #351 - Beacon re-redesign & Simplified fluid mixing
I love the new lightning rod design and would like having module slots in other turrets too. But that can wait or even axed in favor of other nice-to-haves. But there can be only one 1.0.0 and its release will render all names immortal till the end of time. So if you aren't happy with any name of an...

Re: Friday Facts #348 - The final GUI update
New chest limit color is veeery unpleasant. That looks like the first fallout from trying to make the game more accessible to colorblind players. How does more saturation help colorblind people? But more importantly, colorblind-friendly colors should just be an option in the settings. Trying to fin...

Re: Version 0.18.31
at least from my point of view - wich is that of a player having mainstream color vision That seems to be the central problem: It is hard to understand how to solve it if you are not involved. I mentioned clientside-only theming as solution. That would allow for a high-contrast black-and-white them...

Re: Version 0.18.31

Re: Brute Force Login
If an account is seeing x IPs that are not trusted/known IPs attempting to make access to the account then yes it will lock them out. But if you come along to login as the actual user from a normal IP address usually yes it will log you in. Most Internet users worldwide don't have a fixed IP. So a ...

Re: Brute Force Login
Usually if there is a successful login from a known IP it bypasses the account lockout. If you can try to login while you (not the account, but your IP) is on lockout, there is no point in having the lockout at all. The goal is to prevent bruteforcing, not to let the attacker in and then make the u...

Re: Brute Force Login
I would opt for three tries and then ten seconds wait time until the next try. If you can brute force a password under that conditions, the password is crap anyway (you obviously also need some defense against distributed attacks - but that is something that has to be solved before traffic reaches t...
