Ofc. I would also take a splitter-based solution if that is preferable for technical or development reasons. It's just strange to me that currently belt lane splitting requires underground belts (whose primary purpose is to transport things underground), just because it's the only thing that just so...

Ironically, FFF-364 was exactly the post that gave me this idea, as with this, the 4 lanes would stay completely independent and separated, quite unlike with a splitter approach.

I can appreciate if there are technical hurdles for this. However, 2 splitters loading onto 2 belts does not do the same thing, at least not without undergrounds - it wouldn't work with sushi belts and just end up mixing the 2 lanes after all. The point is not that the 2 belts go in different direct...

Umm, is there some additional feedback behind the "No"?!? * I have looked and AFAICT this hasn't been suggested (but may ofc. have missed it, "split" + "belt" aren't exactly rare terms in this game) * Was the suggestion in a wrong format? If so, how? * Do you guys simpl...

TL;DR Split belt: used to split the 2 lanes of a belt and send them off to opposing directions What ? A new belt (in different belt tiers) that is 2 belt ends going off in opposite directions: scr-347-cropped.png Why ? In the game it's trivial to combine belt lanes into a single lane by side-loadin...

I also have this bug ... aaaand it's fixed! The turn-around time for bug fixes is amazing in this game!

:P Currently dabbling with a Bob & Angel set-up that includes the "ScienceCostTweaker Mod (mexmer)" mod. When disabled that mod and load my save game that included it (without using the mod sync button), Factorio crashes on load. Log file pastebin: https://pastebin.com/sjUi76PV Dump &a...

Ah, I completely missed that toggle, thanks a lot! ^_^;;

Hi all, Dabbling with logistics, I'm trying to read the number of construction & logistics robots in a robo-port, and if that number is less than 150 respectively, enable inserters to insert new robots. The way I'm trying to do this is straightforward: connect the roboport to the inserters, and ...
