Re: Spidotron and Vehicle feature in general

i hope for mouse-steering As an option, fine. But personally I would never use it. Factorio isn't RTS game. Player isn't some "god" who commands his units to move/ do things. In factorio player is a single guy. And if he drives a vehicle he must steer by himself. Obviously it is just my p...

Re: Friday Facts #279 - Train GUI & Modern Spitter

Why can't train fuel be in the same tab? It's annoying having to switch tabs just for such a small use case. Also, it seems spitters don't have eyes? It's weird, they should see where they want to shoot. There are a lot of species on earth that barely use a sense od vision. In fact, most of mammals...

Re: Did no one else notice massive nerf of tank in 0.17?

Little off-topic. My sons (lvl 13) favourite game is Minecraft. Minecraft got about 50+ snapshots/releases during 2018. About half of them got new stuff and the others was to fix bugs and/or balance things. I'm not saying that it is best way to release a game, but at least players can check ongoing...

Re: Did no one else notice massive nerf of tank in 0.17?

I wonder, how Mojang, wich is owned by the tiny company Microsoft (you might have heared of them because they also make an OS called Windows wich tries to compete with MacOS and Linux on the Desktop), can manage to get out 50+ releases a year. Really surprising that they got the manpower to pull th...

I hope 0.17 will be released soon. I was at the middle of making my new megabase when science changes was announced. Few hundred hours of playtime and maybe even more of planning has been lost changed to experience ;)

Re: Friday Facts #262 - Hello my name is: Compilatron

Imo this robot guy could serve a purpose of early game blueprinting. It could just move slowly and place all entities it can reach around it, directly from player’s inventory. And when idle it would just follow player. Maybe it should be flying untargettable to prevent pathing and combat issues. Th...

Re: Friday Facts #256 - The little things 3

Awesome news, as always! I agree with all comments about belt immunity. It MUST be put into exoskeleton (MK 2 maybe?).. otherwise it is no go at least for me (massive OCD here ;). Now about bots queue, why not go further? Maybe all structures could have different priorities? Like 1-5 when 1 always l...

Yeah, You've got the point. However, those restrictions could be ignored. Even without them belts would get bigger boost than bots.

How to make belts comparable with bots.

Since fff #224, bots vs belts discussion, I was thinking about this problem very often. And every time I had this sad conclusion: belts not only affect ups more than bots but they also have another huuuge disadvantage. They need more space than a simple requester+inserter array. But i have a proposa...

Re: What is most UPS unfriendly in Factorio?

As for water trains: Not recommended. Nuclear plants just eat too much water to be transporting it. I am pretty sure about that ;) But I'll try so no one will have to :D As I said previously. It is a death world so it takes a lot of time to clear, build perimeter. Nothing substantial to show yet. B...

Re: Whats your current game goal?

I'm trying to build 10k/s beakers mega (giga?) base on an amplified deathworld driven only by nuclear power plant. Bots only. No belts'n no pipes. All fluids are barreled and shipped to consumers via train with only exception to steam.
