It might help if you go for a more natural way of genering electricity, like harnessing the near infinite amount of Biter Power.

That could be indeed a nice start...

Adding some traps and such to get a base electricity from biters to start....

I like this idea

Mark/show missing ingredients of assemblers TL;DR mark/show missing ingredients of assemblers in the hoovering menue What ? It could be readily available in the same manner as for logistic item marking all ingredients of the recipe and underlying with red color the missing ones in the content row. 1...

A shower though :

As things which can use singals (Trainstations / inserters....) can us globas Logistic-Network as Signal source.....

I thougt why not use Signals as items in the logisitc-Network....

so my outline would be catch all signals -> translate them to items and a recipe to build

The factorian way of planing / reserving some space would be a combination of two mods i would guess:

* Holographic sign mod
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/holographic_signs

* some laser lines
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/laserlines

Cool thing for sure would also an accompaning mod which will build this train as from Lego parts

yes its just an akkumulator...... Main reason for me for this idea was just a use of excess stone. ie. if you play a game with the dirty ores you will get a ton of stones. The usual water-power using heighdiffernces is also a gravity energy storage, just with a fluid. The advantage of such gravity s...

I often play with mods and also use the dirty ore mod. So i have an overflow of stones and they need to be disposed. As i recently read about water-energystorage, i came to the similar concept for gravity-storage (which basically is water energy). I would envisage a recipe which uses much stone to s...

if thats the problem

maybe this mod will help ?

Cryptonomicon (Neal Stephenson) is one of my all-time favorites i think really blew my mind that one. Though I wouldn't put it in the scifi genre, as it's 2/3 during WWII and 1/3 during the late 90, describing some of the early internet days. If you want scifi, I higly recommend Snow Crash by the s...

As Factorio sure can use a more lively world i wanted to suggest a mod in the line of Growing-Ores. This mod is unfortunately depreciated and it seems like the author is lacking the time to continue this. I would have the vision, that not only ores also some mud/lava/plants could be growing to pose ...

Ahhhhh thats a thread worth of reading ….. Albeit some are mentioned but as I love reading SF I want to add my share The Dune-Cycle is a very rich and good read (though I needed two tries to get started, but it was well worth if you get into) and I can never understand why the first movie got so bad...

Does anyone know how to make or find Ruby? I can't make the laser assemblers without lasers and without rubies I can't make lasers. I'm trying to make blue circuits and their components are only able to be made in laser assemblers. There's a research item once you get the next science, Chrome analy...

i like this mod : https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Construction_Drones

i feel its perfectly in style for early bots.....

is it not possible to do this with the logic-thingys already in the game....

Do you talk about internal things or the interface?

There are logical combinators......

is it not possible to do this with the logic-thingys already in the game....
And the last one should hand out then only one signal (to Station, or a rail signal)

so maybe this mod is for you (unfortunately still 0.18)

i see no problem there ....

Yes the WA is noticable, but far from shit.......
at least its the currently best - so deal with it

CCT Mod (Carbon Capture Technology) Idea: Every assembler type (assembly machine, refinery, plant, furnace) could be outfitted with the CarbonCaptureTechnology to reduce the pollution So I think every assembler type needs an additional tier with and fluid output; and every recipe used for this also ...

there are two smog mods - maybe this is what you seek ?

I can picture this as a natural catastrophe. It would be very fitting that in factorio a ice cap will melt due to the pollution generated by the factory thouse the water level will rise so we need some dams (walls/landfill) to be build to protect the factory from the ever growing water levels... Aft...
