Re: Friday Facts #406 - Space Age Music

I like the first tracks, but don't like the last. It's too disturbing.

Re: Friday Facts #405 - Whole belt reader, New logistics GUI

Amazing!!! About "Integration with Remote view": Can we please have the same for trains too? I don't find the view with the 100 small maps for each train very helpful in getting an idea of where the trains are. Sometimes I don't even recognize the place :D I then have to click on the map ...

Maybe the whole belt reader indicators should be asymmetrical, to indicate which direction the connector is from a belt segment? Belts are easy to trace with your eyes, but you do need to know which way to go.
It goes both directions until Splitter or end/start

Re: Friday Facts #405 - Whole belt reader, New logistics GUI

Perhaps you could still add the option that if one clicks on a specific item (or member), the minimap will add icons of where that item is stored/located? So you can re-add the functionality of showing where things are, but it is less obtrusive as you do not need all the different minimaps, and you...

Re: Friday Facts #402 - Lightspeed circuits

Are you sure this is the player? The arm seems to be quite high in the air, even if the player is as close the the foundry as possible. So either this type of power armor also affects you size, or this is more like a Fallout Powerarmor, more of a vehicle than personal equipment. Well, no, I'm not s...

Re: Friday Facts #394 - Assembler flipping and circuit control

Dear devs. Two questions: First: Now everyone could use circuits to configure assembly machines, how to deal with fluid input rotation? Is there any indicator in which direction an assembly machine will connect prior to selecting actual a recipe with fluid input? Second: In case of flipping asymmetr...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0

The way the boxes' modes work you would always have the output feeding into the input unless you forced the input and output onto different colored networks. You couldn't have input nor output on both channels without feedback. You don't get feedback if the signals are different for output and inpu...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0

I'm with Qon you're asking for a combinator to perform two completely different bits of logic and have two completely different outputs on each wire That is not true.

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0

Having a combinator being made into something that invisibly (from overview) performs the operations of two unrelated combinators (but still both arithmetic, decider xor selector?) just makes the combinator network harder to read. That is a definition based on your point of view. Having a arithmeti...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0

I would like to have an option not only to select different outputs but also choose the channel (red or green) to output to . This seems pretty pointless. Why would you want this? If you don't want signals on green wire, just don't connect it. If you want other data on green wire than red wire, mak...

Two more suggestion 1 I would like to have an option not only to select different outputs but also choose the channel (red or green) to output to.

Very minor point but the rocket capacity is listed in the GUI as 1 ton. Ton is the imperial measurement (with several different possible values because yay imperial system).

In current version 1.1 you have two numbers: Minimum for starting logistic request if inventory count is below. Maximum for trashing if inventory count is above.
