Re: Scroll up in chat

BTW, how come chat log isn't included in the lua:terminal/stdout factorio-current.log (private information ?), or at least isn't in its own separate chat.log or factorio-console.log ?

Re: UPS optimized Steel smelting to 1 blue belt

@BlueTemplar: yes. these are for real world late game use. also, I believe using only speed will not be as fast due to the increased use of iron, leading to more swings and more active % per steel bar. But if you have a design, I'll be happy to test it. Well, with direct insertion swings aren't an ...

What format? What size? Will people be happy with the format and size the devs pick? "Just make it configurable" someone will say, and so it begins. As ssilk said, just make it a barebones debug option, like & where & how show-fps currently is. Nobody is then going to complain abo...

Re: Compatibility with space exploration

If this ever happens it would be all kinds of amazing, though game performance is kind of a worry :
I already had to remove Alien Biomes in my 2nd pY Alien Life game because the first one slowed down too much !

Re: [1.1.38] Inaccessible first oil due to PvP cliffs

Thing is, you need oil for explosives for cliff explosives in the first place ! (And their 1rst oil only had this one spot.)

[1.1.38] Inaccessible first oil due to PvP cliffs

Seen in this PvP game from 5 months ago, doesn't seem to appear in the list of fixes, might be hard to reproduce though ? Maybe just yet another "cliff hitboxes are a PitA" issue, but here the effect was significant : pumpjack_blocked_by_pvp_cliffs.png https://youtu.be/VMms5_q7gdg?t=7443 (...

Yeah, though this too is a general issue for mods. EDIT : I'm pretty sure that the option to add/remove tags from mods already exists. Of course only the mod authors themselves can change them, for obvious reasons ? What about just posting in the forum thread for that mod and asking politely the mo...
