Having this on 2.0.20 as well. It's not entity-specific - as far as I can tell it happens when the hovering motion takes you above and below a point at which the minimap would shift by 1 pixel. When starting to hover you can see how the minimap nearly always moves down by 1 pixel, from there it's no...

This decision seems completely arbitrary. Recyclers state they can undo processes other than smelting and chemistry; given that this recipe is not performed in a furnace or a chemical plant it's fair for the player to assume it's neither. I think this is a bug, if not in the recyclability of superco...

I think the biggest issue of handling those orders is the control scheme. We're accustomed to picking up / dropping items in the inventory with left-click, and shift-click moving to another inventory / trash. This isn't related to this bug report, but I'd be hard-pressed to tell someone what left a...

Given the following rocket inventory requests, made using the ghost cursor in remote view: An inventory slot A rocket can only contain 5 EM plants, so I want to cancel the unfulfilled request for 17 EM plants, which I would normally do by right-clicking. However, that actually instructs the bots to ...

And it's under Quality for me (2.0.15):

Genhis also just finished up Super-force building support for the Rail planner, so crusading over lakes is easier than ever. Imagine dropping this bombshell as a throwaway line at the end of the FFF! (for anyone who missed it: look closely at the bottom segments of rail in the last video about map-...

The new item icon placeholder effectively canonises using item icons in train stop names - that's good news for me because I already do that, but raises questions: 1. Could now be a good time to implement a more intuitive order for stops with icons in their names? I see that the list of interrupts i...

This feature looks incredible - thanks!

Noticed that kovarex is usng train stops prefixed with rich text icons. Me too! Wondering if this might be as good a time as any to suggest for 2.0 that the sort order of train stop names with icons in them be changed to match the sort order of that icon in the inventory, as opposed to being alphabe...

I'm looking forward to it! I don't suppose there's any information about it available ahead of time?

There's no modding API that hooks into whatever method Factorio natively uses to check if there's a path from one rail to another. boskid speaks a bit about that here: https://test.forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=598088#p598088 That's fine. We don't need dedicated APIs, that's what hacks and jan...

Good point! Have updated the thread title to amend.

Alright, I've gone ahead and made my first mod to implement this as a proof-of-concept. Mod can be found here: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/ordered-rich-text-train-stops Github: https://github.com/rossjrw/factorio-ordered-rich-text-train-stops This mod adds a pane to the train UI with a list of all...

I've added an image to the OP with a visual example of what I'm hoping for, to hopefully make it crystal clear to everyone (and any devs who happen to stumble across this post) what this suggestion is about

It's objectively inferior for the users that the icons are sorted "randomly". It seems like it should have been so obvious in retrospect, but yes I did initially think the stops were effectively random, as I mentioned in the OP. And that's an excellent point about it being even worse for ...

I've been thinking about a mod that attempts to implement this, but I don't think it's feasible. In theory, creating the new order should be easy. If the lexograhpical sort function can be hijacked, or if another sort can be inserted inside/after each method that produces such a list, e.g. LuaGameSc...

Ctrl+Z undoes. Sometimes I'll instinctively press Ctrl+Shift+Z to redo, which obviously doesn't exist in the game. However, Factorio interprets Ctrl+Shift+Z as a superset of Ctrl+Z and undoes again , which was the opposite of my intent and may lead to me accidentally undoing lots of things. I'd love...

This is very hard to be fixed, because the internal name will not change anymore, but the displayed name is translated. The sorting routine must do the same as the display-routine: scan over the name, pick out the icons, lookup the translation for this icon, and replace it with the icon. Then it ca...

Train stops are currently sorted alphabetically. When train stop names contain rich text icons, this ordering becomes nonintuitive, because the '[item=internal-entity-name]' syntax is invisible to the user. While the user might still guess that the stops are sorted alphabetically by item name, in la...

I would like to be able to tell at a glance which train is wich in the trains GUI. As it stands, I have to read the list of stations each is assigned to. This is a damper on my efficiency when I should be able to find the train I want much faster. It may present a greater problem for players who use...
