You can find the prototype for the vanilla car in data\base\prototypes\entity\entities.lua starting from line 797. { type = "car", name = "car", icon = "__base__/graphics/icons/car.png", flags = {"pushable", "placeable-neutral", "player-creation...

On my first playthrough I had no idea what a splitter actually does, so I didn't use any. To split belts I only used inserters, a whole lot of them. Additionally I had the habit of putting items that didn't belong together on the same belt. When I needed these items anywhere else, I would make a new...

I don't own a mac so I can't tell you for sure, but I know that on windows and linux the zip-versions only read and write from their own directory, so I would assume it's the same for mac.
Also, you can configure the read/write path in the config/config.ini file (at least on windows).

I know that ssilk has put a lot of work into making this Epics subforum for ideas and suggestions. However, I completely agree with this post: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12745#p85663 which states that "epic" is the wrong word for this, and it should be named ...

You might want to try launching the game in windowed mode by changing the config file, because your system is too underpowered to run Factorio in full-screen.

I don't think there is a fixed interval, it's just server overload. Sometimes I've been able to do many searches in rapid succession (10 searches in a minute or so), other times almost every search failed. Also strange is that sometimes going to the next page in a result gives the error, but F5ing i...

Prerequisite: C:\Users is actually link to other drive/folder

It's perfectly possible to have multiple installs of factorio one one pc. But only one of them can be the Installer version, all others have to be the zip version. The installer version reads/writes your mods, saves, config to %appdata%\Factorio (at least on windows), that's why you can only have on...

Unless you entered a height and width for the map, the map size is infinite. Due to the way the map is generated, it still might be possible that you're on an island with no way to additional land. Most of the time you'll find out very soon in your gameplay. If you revealed a lot of the map already ...

You go to Options --> Graphics, the first option on the top is the "Full screen" checkbox. Click on it to activate it. Then click the "Back" button on the bottom of the page and the game should switch to full screen, no restart required. Works for me on Windows 7 and 8.1. http://...

Oh wow, I didn't expect this topic to get that detailed so fast. This idea was meant for the 0.11.x version, where the end goal is to build the rocket defense and therefore win the game. The easiest win would be to go straight for rocket defense. Other people prefer to fully unlock the tech tree bef...

Open the console and enter the following command: /c game.player.force.recipes["substation"].enabled = true Works for singleplayer 0.11.22 without mods. It should work singleplayer with mods, for multiplayer you might have to change the lua code, but don't ask me how. You could still try t...

1) go to http://www.factorio.com 2) click the orange button on the right, which reads 'Try Demo' 3) Click on the first orange link ( MS Windows (64 bit exe installer) ) 4) There should be a pop-up of some kind asking you to 'open' or 'save' the file 5) Choose open, the Factorio setup assistent shoul...

Please give us more information about how you wanted to start the game. Factorio doesn't need any additional app to launch. You should have downloaded one of these two versions: MS Windows (64 bit exe installer) There should be an icon for Factorio on your desktop and/or in the start menu MS Windows...

2. Liquid for the replicators to actually not make items out of "thin air" *In progress* How would that liquid work? Currently, the mod just allows to turn electric energy into items, like iron plates needs 800 KW and 3,5 seconds for each plate. That was the reason the mod was created, an...

Yes! I was able to do it, but it turned ugly. I did not post the screenshot - I did not understand how to do. Iron subs -> right on 1. Copper -> underground. Coal -> underground. Now copper/ore belt on another side of main bus. Wow, I don't know how I didn't see that, but you can underground the co...

How the Iron and Copper plates falls to the conveyor going to battery production machines? Transport belt coming out of the ground and is not connected to the resources. I misunderstood something?

Turning off one building: Why? I have no idea. It makes only sense in the early game. But for assemblies I can also remove the recipe, and the drain is really not that hard to handle in that case.. Turning off one key building (e.g. assembler making gear wheels) will make all subsequent assemblers ...

OP already knew how to change the coloring of the player using commands, it's more about being able to change the color and/or player model using some kind of GUI. The new character model was introduced in FFF #40 , and the forum topic also discussed making a female player model, first suggested in ...
