So I was wondering... How intelligent are biters? Are they self aware? Can they communicate? What do they call themselves?

Do they have any internal social structure? Does their size indicate their intellect? If the engineer could speak their language, would they be hospitable to him?

I am in the US, my friend is in Germany. He can join my games, but I can't join his games... sometimes. I go through the entire join process then get the following error. Please see attached pics and files. Thanks. Here is the current log 0.002 2022-09-02 10:56:37; Factorio 1.1.68 (build 60023, win6...

Thank you, that was not the answer I was expecting, but it did solve my problem.

I can add an oil patch, but I can't figure out how to increase the density of any specific deposit. They seem to spawn in at very low density no matter how I set the cursor. I would like to edit each spot individually, is that possible? Or I would like to create a patch that is neither a circle nor ...

Actually, that is exactly the solution that I found. I am keeping it all vanilla, so mod options don't help.
So unless there's somebody out there with a better idea, I guess it's as good as it gets.

Other than the tones, I'm not happy with the tones.

After some tinkering I got to this... It's my convoluted solution (definitely imperfect), but I need to turn on the lower constant combinator until the tree lights go off to reset. I would like the tree lights to be off by default. Then i turn on the countdown, then when it reaches "GO" it...

Ok, I know how to do some of that, so I built this.... BUT, I can't figure out how to make it STOP after reaching "GO". It just keeps cycling. Also, I am not good with sounds so any help on better tones? 0eNrtXVlv4kgQ/isjP67IrN2nQbv7sj9hIu0cipAhHbDGl3xkFo3479uGIZC2C7pITNJoXyLho2x/dX1VXXZ+e...

Hello combinator geniuses,

I am looking for a 3...2...1... digital countdown with sounds (beep, beep, beep, boooop) and a christmas tree (like drag racing) display.

I am capable of some combinatorizations, but this one is baffling me.

Any and help is appreciated.

Fish, rocket silo, wood, etc. any item that is not on the belt works for this.

Can you do it for base rate of 5 red and 6 green?

Just think of tanks as large pipes instead of large storage vessels. Fluid is distributed evenly through all connected pipes (including tanks). So if you have 50/100 units in a pipe you will have 12500/25000 in a connected tank ... over time. Use pumps to push fluids from one pipe network to the nex...

It would be awesome if you could wire up a real air horn to the game so that when a train is about to kill you in game a 160 decibel air horn sounds behind your head and you stroke out irl.

Just reestablish roboport coverage, collect the bots from the port. Problem solved.

TL;DR Blueprints are great; editing them is a hassle; zooming would help. What ? Once you create a blueprint, editing is quite tedious. It would help if it was possible to zoom in on a blueprint while you are editing. Screenshot (120).png Why ? In the image you can see my cousin's city block; it's ...

So my son finally decided to try the demo, and immediately loved the game. So I gave him my cc and told him to make the purchase. In his excitement he entered the wrong email address. He sent an email to support. Is there anything else I should/can do?

When you’re a full-blooded Italian and when someone says “spaghetti” you don’t get hungry, you run to see how beautiful it is.

Is uran a shortened form of uranium or a misspelling of urine?

I agree with one of these.

I will highly recommend using a tile-able mining blueprint using the snap to grid feature. It solves all of your problems with placement. And due to miners NOT placing on non-ore locations you don’t have to submit a feature request for miners placed by blueprints not to place on non-ore locations.
