what would the name of this file look like?


Your topic was renamed with the information, I guess a moderator did that.

Your factorio-current.log was from an instance that didn't crash I think (I'm on mobile now)
It could have been in the factorio-previous.log then instead. Depending on how ...

yeah, i figured as much, that 40s step is obvious

strange thing is, i wanted to run a memtest anyway, so i rebooted into my Memtest USB boot stick and ran the test
Then after restart, since windows update didn´t find any new drivers, i ran AMD Adrenaline, which said all drivers are up to date.

I ...

Reproducable with the autosave, there is a teleporting Behemoth Biter


Stack trace logging done
92.619 Error Chunk.cpp:413: On chunk [-19, 37] (surface nauvis) there is a MilitaryTarget (for entity [name=behemoth-biter, type=unit(Unit), position={13.023, 16.000}, direction=<no>, force=enemy ...

This is some new behaviour that i blame on some Windows update that happened this week, at least i hope its not the hardware
So far i concluded it must be my PC, i think its safe to skip my story and go straight to the log file

I have 2 installations. One Steam 2.0.41 and one standalone 2.0.37 ...

Reading this, it might be worth the devs adding thrusters research to the list of research that's exempt from the science multiplier and have it join Automation.


Nah, its ok(ish), i believe its only half the silo. with 3 science "collector" platforms i got it down to an hour, which is roughly ...

[...] i´m not able to produce enough ice with this abomination

As was said, the asteroid spawn rate in orbit is constant.


Thanks for the clarification and the BP

Multiple platforums it is then, need about 900spm
Sadly, "For the early game without asteroid processing productivity it's ...

I appreciate a hint in changing playstyle, i even thought about that multiple platform thing while reading your first reply.
It just felt like you overlooked me researching thrusters in the screenshot.

If its a fact that you cant scale up for orbit asteroids, more platforms is the only way ...

Outlier opinion: 10X research cost should be the Default; I think EVERYTHING is too cheap to research.



Thats actually the reason i chose the x100.
Your entire post actually, i just like to highlight the most important part by deleting the rest.

I too think the base game should be x10 by ...

You need to have your Platform move to somewhere with more asteroids if you want to catch those Asteroids.


You didn´t read the part about my 3rd SA playthrough?
Also, top right corner, i can´t actually move yet.
I tought i have seen it all and can now begin to enjoy it, but every time i start ...

Just like yesterday , this artificial roadblock of bad balancing is bringing me here.

Again, 100x science map and i´m not able to produce enough ice with this abomination

Screenshot Factorio ISS.png

Thats 79 asteroid collectors
Ice crushers with prod 1 modules.
Roughly 80 ice/min.
Not ...

:not-enough-repair-packs:
Im no game dev, therefore i wont suggest any numbers here, dont look for them!
But I think you should look into this:

While all other Tier1 modules cost 50 research, the all singing all dancing shiny new quality 1 module cost 500.
While this reflects it´s usefulness ...

I don't believe it's worth increasing the complexity to account for this combination given machines with parameters are useless until parameterized - at which point you will see it's not powered.


I described such a case, but as you said it´s not worth it.
Quite interesting new things to think ...

I noticed this when setting parameter placeholder for later unlocked recipes in the mall.
It´s the same for refinieries and chemical plants, didn´t test Space Age buildings

First i thought it would only be a minor issue, because my personal usecase is kinda small and who let parameters in when ...

Instead of opening a new one, here is another one (version is 2.0.35)

100x science cost
No modules researched yet, no productiviy possible
Only red and green produced
No flask has ever been stored, except for military, which ive not used yet
The numbers are WAY off in the ALL TIME tab
186k/137k for ...

I gifted this game to my nephew a few years ago. He's 20 now. He likes the vanilla game when we play on his map, but generally he's of the type "load up ridiculous overpowered mods and mess around with cheats"

He gets the game and comes up with "good" builds.
But I get frustrated. It's not how I'd ...

Serious question

Why would coal be a problem on Vulcanus?

Megabasing SA would mean 12,5x efficiency on the coal patch (8%big miner yield/destroy ore thingie with legendary miners)
And that's not even accounting for base mining efficiency research.

Is it still not enough with all the oil coming ...

Can you fit something else into your design, something like a normal turret?
Even if it's useless cos of resistances, you could read it's ammo (not sure) or read an inserter's hand contents. Just make sure the inserter draws from the main grid.

If you are so desperately looking for spare power ...

Looks fine on the platform, not sure what could be missing.
The only thing you don't see here is the planet, where you said "rockets are prepped"
Silos can be in different states as well, without knowing it, one can only guess or ask for a save file.

Whenever something weird happens to my space ...

I just overproduce and burn the rest. Never needed to specifically make fuel for power.

It's not what you asked for, but just in case someone else is looking for a restart solution for a different problem:

Sometimes my Gleba base dies cos of clogged up belts, which clogs them up even more with ...

How could you live without a book of deconstruction & upgrade planners?

Pretty comprehensive!

I usually make everything new each playthrough. If you do everything the most optimal way then you only need to look at the internet and then do one playthru - or why even ...
