I tried ribbon world in space age and was surprised how great the map maker was in making sure there's always a path through lava mess.Had some issues ofcourse: my demolisher-free calcite patch wasn't near. It did exist but had to kill several big demos to get there. But i was able to drive my car ...

I tried to use a 0.01 multiplier in a constant combinator group.

Expected outcome:
100 * 0.01 = 1
200 * 0.01 = 2
2000 * 0.01 = 20

What happened instead:
100 * 0.01 = 0
200 * 0.01 = 1
2000 * 0.01 = 19

I think it's because float values, but a 0.1 multiplier works fine here:
100 * 0.1 = 10
200 * 0.1 ...

Uhm, no, it was NOT solved in 2.1.13 .. the change in that patch enabled sending to other platform once building is complete. Not send to planet.

Please re-evaluate, since you decided already that sending away stuff to other platforms is ok. Maybe make it "smart", I mean, switch to delivery mode ...

Visual Bug, jumping wagons. I just noticed something strange. Now I cannot unsee it.
Was a pleasure to read https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-133 but blueprints seems to not be on par.
Worse, the blueprint preview shows the distorted version *sometimes*

Position after build, while wagon still on ...

When a ship needs some platform to build and requests things for cargo. The cargo request reads "waiting for higher priority item" even if the cargo items getting launched.

It's not a "real" issue, just a not-100%-perfect-text. Because it's telling you that it has to ...

I did a testrun with my newly created ship design and stranded above fulgora. At the time I arrived fulgora was broke as hell with almost no rocket fuel available. Noticed this tooltip in my damaged ship:

Just noticed this got changed in 2.1.13
Great! Thank you

What I did:

Rich text in a parameter name, to give the user a hint which recipe should be entered

What happened?

(Relative) Snap to grid failed in different ways. It's not usable with parameters anyways. I know that. But got some strange results.

Broke in 2.1.13 and was fine before so how would this be no bug. I'm fast replacing belts with undergrounds all the time and it just stopped working in remote view.

well barrel some water or send asteroid chunks

I've just recently found out if Platform A has request from surface only, and Platform B has request from platform only, Platform A is smart enough to deliver items as soon as they arrive there.

I've built a workaround for both having the same request group with request from both ships and platform ...

Sounds similar to https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=134822 but please read further. Not the same!

TL;DR
Requests at space platform should default to "import from all sources".

What?
Setting up space logistics is not really straight forward, there's lots ...

crash on quit, might be related. now 2.1.9

Don't we already have a hotkey for visualizations like this (alt mode)?

Please make the 2.0 behaviour optional somewhere in the settings.

So I need to disable automatic building to be able to send entities down i have built on ship?

I was troubleshooting my fulgora build. Have an orbital recycling plattform and groundbased science pack production.

Platform "Orbitalrecycler 1" has some old building requests (long fullfilled). The request for 0 accumulators actively blocks dropping to fulgora ground:

When holding an underground pipe, the fluid pipe visualization kicked in. Several parts of the pipeline are colored magenta, indicating they are all connected which is not the case. There have been a connection by accident. Removed the faulty pipe and cleared all contents ...

Waaait a second 2.1.7 did NOT launch for me on Steam, did that get fixed in 2.1.8 or why does this say steam versions not affected?


Need to opt in in steam settings to latest experimental, like they described. Otherwise you are stuck with the wrong version.
