Re: Increase Big Electric Pole Wire Reach to 32 to = Chunk Size

Can we get this please with the 0.18 version?! The only reason I want this is so that power poles and radars can be fully blueprinted for long distance and not leave gaps/overlaps in the radar coverage. As for the wire connections. I use substationsor medium poles for powering the factory. So big p...

Re: Friday Facts #314 - 0.17 stable

Do you know when Gog is going to update on their part? They are still on the 0.16. As far as I know, GOG users should get the stable, we marked it as stable through the web interface. macOS and Linux builds were not marked as stable, I did it just now. Okay so I made a bit of investigations. When u...

Pull 4 lanes from an 8 bus

This is the recommended way of pulling two lanes from a four lanes bus (I believe): https://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/272963Pull42.png What is the recommended way of pulling four lanes from an eight lanes bus? Right now I use this, with preceding and following balancers, but it's suboptimal: https:...

Re: Choose the production of mining drills

At least we all agree on the behavior of the mining drills when put on uranium ore: they should not block if there is another ore available but no sulfuric acid. Right?

Re: Choose the production of mining drills

Personally I find this task more annoying than challenging. Most of times secondary resource is totally not needed and you can't really dispose of it. This is one thing that really makes me nervous every time I meet it. Not like something I should solve. I would say personally I do just avoid resou...

Re: Choose the production of mining drills

I would suggest not putting the filter next to every miner which produces multiple ores, but instead make a series of filter inserters further along, once you have merged the miner belts. I agree, I just quickly added overlapping mining drills with chests and inserters next to them for the sake of ...

Re: Choose the production of mining drills

The question has already been asked, and the answer is : filter inserters are made for that. There's already filter inserters which can handle mixed resources. Source Since it has been already decided I won't argue, although I'm disappointed to be forced to do this kind of things: https://img15.hos...

Choose the production of mining drills

Hello everyone, When two ore fields are overlapping each other, it's not possible to choose what a mining drill on top of both will produce. I don't understand how the mining drill chooses the ore to produce, but it alternates from one to the other by itself. I find this really annoying because it f...
