Re: Bring Back the Rocket Launch Counter! (Please).

PS: I don't want to use a mod because that will disable achievements in the game.

Bring Back the Rocket Launch Counter! (Please).

So far, I haven't really had a single complaint about the game, but this one was glaringly visible (or invisible as the case may be...) There used to be a box in the upper left hand corner that showed you the total number rockets launched - from all silos. For whatever reason it's gone now and I thi...

An argument for train tunnels (again..)

Just my two cents: I wanted to place a rail line across my base and I could do the entire line except for a few chemical plants that were in my way. I thought, if I could just tunnel under them like I could with belts, problem solved! Unfortunately there is no way to do it in 1.0. Keeping in the spi...

Logistic request for explosive rockets reaps 1 stack less than request

This seems to only apply to explosive rockets when I request them from the logistics network. I haven't' see this happen with any other item. If I request 1k explosive rockets, I get 800 from the system. If I ask for 800 explosive rockets I get 600 etc. One stack goes missing each time. I have about...

Re: Spidotron and Vehicle feature in general

[…] worry about getting caught on oil pipes or a row of boilers. You know that you can walk in between two boilers, right? And since they reduced the hitbox of steam engines, you can also walk in between two steam engines (along the long side, not the short side where they connect). There is no mor...

Satellites missing in logistics chest inventory (sometimes!) 1.0.0

You're going to hate me for this one. Through most of the game, satellites were listed in the logistics inventory list along with everything else, but after shooting off a few hundred rockets I went to see how many satellites I had in inventory and nothing was listed! ZERO. I'm looking right at 10 s...

Here's a screenshot. Hope I did it right....

Let me know if you need anything else, I figured out where the logfiles are etc on Linux. Specifically Linux Mint MATE v 20.

1.21 Gj. lol! Thanks for pointing that out.

Technically it was 1.21 gigawatts in the movie, not gigajoules, but it is still 1.21gj!

It really took me some time to wrap my head around how Kovarex enrichment should be set up and I had to consult the internet, so here's the station(s) I use which are fed by logistics robots. Explanation: Working from right to left, the first thing is to have a requester chest asking for U-238. Thos...

Nuclear Reactors, H-Reactor, Fan Reactor

I find that the H-Reactor is fairly cheap to build and a good starting power station when switching from steam. The Fan Reactor produces considerably more power than the H. The Fan Reactor gets all of the adjacency bonuses for the reactor cores. The H-Reactor gets a half bonus per reactor core. 2 or...

Spidertron repair bug

I'm pretty sure this is a bug and not a feature. Steps to reproduce: 1) Have repair kits in character inventory. 2) Have repair bots working out of a roboport (character) 3) Player is inside a Spidertron (best vehicle ever) 4) Create a new spidertron. Fill it with explosive rockets and send it off t...

Re: Six legs good, Eight legs bad!

In order to overcome your fear of spiders, you must become one with the spider!

(That is pretty much exactly how it works in game... just saying...)

Re: Spidotron and Vehicle feature in general

Just my 2 cents: I've been playing on and off since the 0.16 update, and I think the Spidertron is the best vehicle in the game. You can't steamroll things like you can with the tank, but: 1) Immune to trains (I tried every way I could to get hit by a train because of course that's the first thing y...

4 years worth of stupid!

I've been playing this game since 2016 and have spent literally thousands of hours in game, and I just now figured out that the portable fusion reactor for your power armor is the Mr. Fusion home fusion reactor from Back To The Future.

4 years to connect the dots!

DOH!

Mushroom Cloud Implementation?

I just broke 2,000 hours of play on Factorio and this was after giving up and leaving the game for 3 YEARS! And now I'm back and addicted and OCD, again! Thanks guys! Best $20 I ever spent in my life. =) So, the ONLY gripe I have about the game is that Atomic bombs don't make mushroom clouds. WHY NO...
