I understand that logic but it still seems inconsistent:

-If I deconstruct landfill, why does it only remove ghosts and not built items?

-Per my last point from my first post - why do the ghosts get removed and not the landfill?

If I ghost add an item onto water, then bulk remove landfill in the area before anything is built, the ghost and landfill are removed.

If I ghost add an item onto already filled landfill, and then bulk remove landfill in the area before the ghost is built, the ghost and landfill are not removed ...

I can understand why adding a Whitelist item would set the tile filter to never, but Blacklist is a specific set to exclude - If I don't exclude tiles, then logically I don't expect it to exclude them for me - but every time an item is added, I have to reset the tile filter back to Normal.

Even if ...

When using filtered inserters and hence having to mark old ingredients for bot removal upon recipe change in assembling machines, the ingredients are marked with a red X correctly.

When closing the viewport of that machine and then going back into it, the red X is no longer visible. If you right ...

I *maybe* see the point in recycling blueprint books in a very very very niche case - people too lazy to click the delete button and want to automate it...

But why oh why can it be given a quality upgrade?

That's what I was testing yesterday and it seems to work. If no issues are found the fix will be in 2.1.

That's great to hear, thanks!

Running around 30 UPS I am noticing a really annoying bug with copying.

When selecting an area to copy (say from x=0,y=0 to x=100,y=100), upon releasing the mouse cursor at x=100,y=100, the copying process itself will induce some lag, especially if more than a few items are selected.

If the mouse ...

Indeed, it is the accidental removal from the selection list dialogue that is the massive problem. Having to individually re-assign thousands of chests to a newly re-created group is a laborious and on-going task.

I found out today that I had deleted my station fuelling group, and I had no idea it ...

This!

Oh gosh-darnit - a thousand times, *this*!!

As per title, when setting Quality filters on Selector combinators, it would be very helpful to be able to set the quality criteria based on circuit inputs, especially from a Constant combinator - which at present isn't even able to output just a quality on its own.

Use case: Setting multiple ...

Ok, it ain't pretty, but it works and very nearly does what I wanted it to ... although it breaks automatic cleanup on recipe change...

The 2 (not 1! :'( ) selectors on the bottom of the far left both need to be set to the same quality - whatever maximum quality you want to discard. (In theory you ...

New version - more compact, 7 ingredients, almost* non-blocking on recipe change (although watch our for recycling epic ingredients...!)

Ingredient multiplier can be selected from bottom right arithmetic combinator to adjust for source item range.

Still to do: one click quality selection to ...

I fully support something along these lines - any sort of visual indication would be very welcome!

Thanks for the suggestion.

Update blueprint without my silly wiring error! (can you spot the problem?)

Factorio 2 non space age - with Quality mod.

Just set the recipe with the constant combinator.

Only thing to change is make a second copy for intermediate products with best ratio of productivity/quality modules.

Lane at the top is for ...

Use case for soft filters:

Multiple parallel sushi belts, with one exit for red circuits.

At present, you need separate filtered splitters for each sushi lane, merging the red filtered outputs after the exit.

With soft filters, each lane can send red circuits towards the exit without blocking ...

Apologies for the stream of consciousness here, just got all these related thoughts floating round in my head...

As per the subject, trains stopping on a sixpence is immersion breaking and shouldn't normally happen. The only circumstances where it does should cause damage - end of track should be ...

When choosing a building in Electric network info or Production Stats when "All (merged)" is selected and then switching to "All (separate)", only the normal quality building shows selected.

It would make much more sense to me to have all of the different qualities of the buildings previously ...

Thanks for the explanation.

I would consider it as a bug as changing key bindings shouldn't result in an error in my opinion.

I would suggest the fix for this to be that the tip should present your current bindings, while the in-window behaviour should show what the makers intended, irrespective ...
