I do like that you can always see there are clearly recipes that use both inputs and all 3 outputs, but I will agree, the current situation is flawed, because you actually can't know which output to use if you don't use alt view, which shouldn't be a requirement, as useful as it is. You could even ...

Pretty sure this isn't a bug, as just like crafting machines, each output only gets one slot, even if two outputs are the same item. data.raw.recipe["accumulator"].result = nil data.raw.recipe["accumulator"].results = {{name="accumulator",amount=10},{name="accumula...

That would be awful. All your solar panels would disappear from your network every night.

on_force_created should have a note that it is not fired for the default forces, same as the note on_surface_created has about not being fired for the default surface.

-> Good idea, thanks, added for the next release.

that will be nice Posted a report and it's been assigned so hopefully we'll get some way to detect this happening: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=182&t=99387 I also had previously noticed but forgot that they don't even get their death animation when energy runs out, unlike combat ...

What Setting speed_multiplier_when_out_of_energy=0 on a logistic or construction robot doesn't fire any event when the robot dies, nor does the robots death animation fire. Instead, they just immediately disappear from the map. This is in contrast to combat robots, where they fire the on_combat_rob...

Been a VERY long time since I had a reason to, but I've done it before with YUMI IIRC. Can't say how well the modern version works, but a quick look says it still supports making bootable USB XP installers.

I would not have expected that behavior, but from testing it looks like there is a single chunk thick ring around the map (presumably filled with the 'out-of-map'tiles), but beyond which chunks aren't generated and thus pollution can not travel, so it could still work for OPs purpose. Your image la...

Very vague memories say that map size just generates out-of-map tiles instead of land, but doesn't actually stop generating chunks, or pollution spreading. Albeit the generated chunks would be smaller on disk due to not having any actual content. Did that change over the years? I would not have exp...

Only thing I can think of like that would maybe be to limit the map size via MapGenSettings (width/height) via script and expand it as the player explores/builds out further from the spawn point (up to whatever original limit they set in new game settings). Don't know how well it'd work in practice....

I am going to move this to modding help There are many ways and many ways to go wrong when hooking events and using your own scripting, It would be best if you can just post the whole mod/script instead of cherry picked snippets From testing it myself it doesn't seem like any event fires when a log...

Neither of those save files contain any blueprint books. Post a vanilla save containing the book and exact steps to produce the issue please.

From the quoted version, and other forum posts (some of bob's, google factorio "storage_slots"), that was indeed the case. Now though, that doesn't seem to apply. I wouldn't be surprised if a rather non-descript / very seldom used property became "vestigial" (it was added in 201...

Or if there's a console command to progress research for bots that works too

where "artillery-shell-range-1" is the tech you want to set the level for. worker-robots-speed-1 is the one for bot speed.

One thing this thread seems to have missed is that miners and pump jacks both display the exact same info in their panels, the only difference comes if they're mining an infinite resource vs a finite one.

Thanks for your help! My file had 64 level.dat files (level.dat63 etc). I deleted all but the most recent and renamed it level.dat (since they were numbered 0-63 with none just "level.dat"). I get the following error. Any advice? You're not supposed to delete ANY of the level.dat* files -...

Check to see what mods are modifying the Logistic and Construction robot prototypes. According to the docs, if something set their out of energy speed multiplier to 0 they'll crash. Obviously that's more likely to happen if they go long distances, and can happen when they're near a roboport cause th...
