In version 1.1 mods could provide button with further zoom out than scroll wheel allowed. This has apparantly been "fixed" / removed in 2.0

(used 2.0.26)

I've added another blueprint of 204x204 size without accidentally including an infinite chest.

In the test save i sent, preview takes ~20-21ms in "game render preparation", reducing fps from 60 fps to ~44 fps.

Holding shift, the "game render preparation" time increases from 20-21ms ...

My ups goes down to 15 when I only want to place a roboport into my existing base.
I'm curious, could you try to place the same blueprint but without any roboports?


Found no difference in blueprint preview performance. Robots present or not in preview was not observable in FPS. Both times still ...

If you already loaded your save in 2.0 the biggest change has already happened - your rail curves changed. Old ones continue to exist but I don’t think you can build them anymore.

If you then enable space age, some tech will move around. There are rumors that it would delete some items you ...

I noticed it gets even worse with "Game render preparation" when the blueprint is hovered above a place where it got built already (i.e. hovering-over-empty -> hovering-over-built: 23ms -> 34ms, fps/ups 33 -> 25)

I don't know why exactly, but connecting a VPN fixed the issue. My theory is that the home router doesn't handle UDP that well and VPN makes it route through TCP.


You don't know which router messes it up, I'd say its likely not your home router, but some router inbetween you and your server ...

Hi,

I have a performance problem during big (204x204) blueprint preview (FullHD, AMD 5600x, Nvidia 1660 Super).

FPS go from 60 to 44 in new game (and in my actual game save from 60 to ~35) just by previewing the blueprint.

You can find the blueprint in the inventory/hotbar of the save file (Test ...

"Empty space request" for blueprints as mentioned by kovarex here is similar to what I suggested here,

but deconstruction blueprints / or elements marked for deconsturction inside a blueprint would remove if element + orientation match.

With rail replanning, maybe there can be a way to have "empty ...

In case you didn't know, one can cancel deconstruction orders with [Shift]-[Deconstruction planner] on the entity
https://wiki.factorio.com/Deconstruction_planner#Cancelling_deconstruction_orders
I do know that.

With bigger blueprints and multiple spread out partly overlapping areas its not that ...

My idea: Blueprints which deconstructs every matching real item it has inside.

Add it either:
- as right-click action
- as a mode to enable with a button press
- a toggle inside the blueprint's editor (toggle should change color of the blueprint from blue to purple or so)

This can help with large ...

Allow ghost placement (blueprint) to cancel deconstruction of same element on same position.

To me this sounds like a no-brainer, but for it to be missing I suppose there are valid reasons.
So add it with a modifier key or toggle option in settings.

I dont remember featurs of sandbox mode, but atm im using Creative Mod with cheat mode, instant blueprint, instant deconstruction and god mode enabled in "personal cheats" and feel quite comfortable in planning.

Often you can place them in map view easier as you can scroll out more.

Overlapping things are shown in blue.

Is this "workaround" suitable for your use cases?

Umlaut search seems to be case-sensitive.

Experienced it with the following example, and seems to be the similar for the other 3 german-specifc characters [äöüß vs ÄÖÜẞ]:

For me, the scenario folder can only be found inside the game install dir, not in the appdata folder, and its freeplay.lua has no "global" inside

Greetings everyone.

Been playing this game for a couple of months and having a blast.

At the time of purchase, I had no functioning computer and opted for buying the Nintendo Switch version of the game.

Later on I found out that the Space Age DLC and 2.0 version were on their way. I was excited ...
