Hi,
I've noticed when playing with rail gun turrets that the wall collision box is inconsistently "connecting" to empty space in a very unhelpful way.
Normally:

But if the corner piece has the "cross" of wall on it instead of being "flat":

This reason some ...

Re: Friday Facts #427 - Combat Balancing & Space Age LAN
I've always felt like combat is in a bit of a weird place in Factorio. On the one hand the early dances with biters can be fun, and I don't like playing with no biters at all.

[1.1.69] Construction bots not recharging
Hiya,
I was building a new bit of base and put down some rail blueprints; I was confused why it was taking so long, and eventually found the construction bots moving painfully slowly towards the construction site. They were all out of charge, but this was in the middle of my base surrounded by ...

[1.1.50] Blueprints lost when swapping computer
Hi,
I'd like to report a cloud save problem using multiple systems for Factorio. I have a desktop and a laptop, and I normally play on my desktop, but sometimes when I'm away from home I play on my laptop.
The problem I have is that if I swap between the two systems I lose blueprints that are NOT ...

Re: [1.1.11] Can't ghost place anything (except blueprints) from map view
You also can't ghost place anything on the non-map screen away from your character right now.

Re: [1.1.3] Crash of server (DetailedEntitySearch::setupFromSurface)
Thanks for looking at it. A memory issue is quite plausible given the age of the server; I've seen intermittent memory problems on there before.
I can take it from here, thanks again

Re: [1.1.3] Modded server crash
Sorry, I realised I should have attached the latest autosave actually rather than the main game save from the start of the session!

[1.1.3] Crash of server (DetailedEntitySearch::setupFromSurface)
Hi,
I am running a modded factorio 1.1.3 server and had a mysterious crash. The player who was using it at the time said he was fighting biters in a tank, which is a fairly normal activity; the trace doesn't enlighten me very much on what went wrong. It's not clear if the mods are responsible.
