I have a signal with many different items and their amounts, for example [A=3, B=10, C=8]. I need to convert it to a signal that would contain only one of those items, doesn't matter which one, for example [A=3] or or [C=8]. I don't see a simple way to do it without building a minicomputer. Any ideas?

I don't remember removing any train stations. However biters could destroy one and bots could rebuild it after that.

I reloaded the game, stopped first 10-15 trains, waited for a while and the game didn't crash this time. Works fine since that.

How to reproduce: 1. Load the save. 2. Wait or do whatever you want for approximately 1 min 15 seconds 3. Factorio crashes.

There's always something else that can be optimized. Last week we purchased some new hardware because I wanted to test if 'throwing money at it' was a viable method of improving compilation times (and the speed at which we can develop/fix things). We purchased a brand new i9-7900X CPU and compatibl...

This will break someone's workflow.

Because they out of fuel and have no energy to move.

When you place a new burner inserter it has a little bit of fuel to be able to move to refuel itself. Some of your inserters ran out of fuel completely, so they can't even refuel themselves.

Thanks!

In this thread - Lab Efficiency Research - i have written a post that should be #21, but it's not shown neither on the first page (because the forum shows 20 posts per page), nor on the 2nd page because there is no second page yet. The post is also not visible in the thread's print view. The only wa...

I have a suggestion about labs and their efficiency. Problem: Unbalanced mid-game research difficulty In all my games the only time I actually carefully think about what to research next is the early game. This is because there's no enough labs yet or no enough science packs or resources to make the...

And maybe for the same reason it makes sense to change rails to use stone bricks instead of raw stone. Yes it would produce 5 at a cycle (as other way stone will be consumed 5x faster) but this would make sense and would actually simplify understanding of stuff by people - that raw maretials have t...

nuhll wrote:The belt is not moving. (how else should the others get coal?!)

It's not moving now, when the unlucky inserters are already out of fuel. It usually happens to the inserters that are closer to the fuel input and never happens to the ones that are at the end of the lane.

Agree. I don't like recipes that produce final goods out of raw materials without use of intermediate products. And it's quite logical to use wires instead of copper plates for poles.

Since bots can carry barrels, you don't have to lay belts or pipes or railtracks from your oil processing site to the customers that don't need large amounts of liquids.

According to this post by a factorio developer, it is not a bug, but works as intended, for performance reasons.

Yeah, I saw it, and it made me wondering what is the purpose of this feature then?

What are the use cases for overriding inserter stack size via circuit network? The potential use case is to be able to move the exact number of items from a chest/wagon to a chest/wagon regardless of the current stack size bonus. But it didn't work out as expected. Here I'm trying to move 41 lights ...

the artifacts were NOT a scarce resource, just an annoying one. Indeed. In one of my previous games I had like 200-300k artifacts in the storage after completing The Great Perimeter Wall and securing the whole area. I had no idea what to do with all that treasure. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfi...

Depending on the exact time, the "Tuesday" may actually be Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday for people in different time zones.
