Hätte grundsätzlich Interesse. Habe gute Erfahrung mit Factorio aber nicht viel mit Multiplayer also kann sein dass nicht gleich alles läuft von meiner Seite. Schreib mal ne PM wenn du Interesse hast. Bezüglich Mods/Modus: Ich spiele in der Regel Vanille, Modus egal (gerne auch mal (marathon) deathw...

Like urza99814, the inventory in factorio is just so good that I almost never use the quickbar. I also never display more than one quickbar as it just blocks parts of the screen. The only task that I really use the quickbar for is combat. Being good in combat requires every fractional second you can...

There're probably hundrets of memes for that one but I'm gonna go with this:

Also, to devs: As long as most of the island maps contain oil, I don't consider this an issue. It's actually fun if weird stuff happens every now and then .

Also keep in mind that the factorio tank weights 10 times more than the factorio locomotive. Yes, 10 times heavier. This is the primary reason why acceleration and braking is so slow: It just takes hell of a lot of energy. Not sure how real-life tanks compare to that.

I can't really join the discussion on the technical side, since I am not familiar with that stuff, but allow me to make a conceptual contribution. As I understand, this whole thread is about a specific code optimization to improve the performance of the game in one particular area. But as, I think, ...

The "Do not destroy biter bases" challenge. Including worms, but you probably need to turn off biter expansion.

The tank could be renamed Bulldozer, especially in base, but then again, nothing the con bots couldn’t handle (or if I‘ve forget to avoid the space bar, while carrying nuclear rockets). Just don’t drive near anywhere expensive, like your reactor blocks, or silo(s). I personally prefer the term "mec...

In my games I basically never build lights, for the simple reason that they don't do their job well enough. As far as I understand, lights are supposed to counter the detrimental effects of darkness (due to nighttime). Why they don't do that well enough can roughly be described as follows: -small ra...

Now, this could be partially due to having a large +320% bonus flame damage (both to turrets and to flamethrower ammo... I think they stack?) Yeah, it is a research-dependent issue. The faster your bots are the higher the risk that they fly into the middle of an attack and the more damage the fire ...

Please note that small biters/spitters have 15 resp. 10 hp, while basic ammo deals 5 damage per shot. Which sounds like you need 3 resp. 2 shots to kill them. Which is actually wrong, because biters regenerate health. So during the delay between the first shot and the "killing" shot they will regene...

While I share the sentiment, you need to keep in mind that gunturrets are super cheap to research and to produce. They are explicitely meant for the early game. The superior damage upgrades and ammo benefits simply allow it to remain usefull well into the later stages of the game. Increasing the bas...

I don't know inhowfar this matters, but as in I wrote in the title, most of the personal equipments have an internal buffer of a certain size and I would like this to be added to the column on the right which gives an easy overview of the stats of the object. Specifically: Everything except roboport...

Nightvision is currently the only equipment which explicitely requires batteries to be used (since PFR isn't available that early): Shields totally work without batteries, they just aren't as effective because they can't recharge as fast. Discharge defense has enough charge for 1 or two shots, which...

Hmm, I kinda think of biters in a similar way, but I didn't have the experience that they have bad timing. Did you play deathworld of deathworld marathon? In my experience, marathon does a nice job of slowing down the pace of the game (you have much more time to do stuff, but obviously you also need...

I don't mind efficiency modules being the solution to deathworld marathon. It's just how you do it. If you nerf them, people will figure out a different strategy which will become the new solution. They will most likely never see much use outside of the more biter-heavy modes, as they only reduce en...

The viability of defense/offense is also a question of difficulty, size of your factory and your skill. Going to the biters and killing them before they attack you works decently, at normal difficulty and for the first part of the game. The higher your skill, the longer you can get away with it. But...

I keep having this idea about two cutscenes for freeplay and I wanted to know what you think about it and if you think it would be worth doing. The first cutscene would be right at the start of the game. You see a landing capsule descending from the sky and making a more or less gracefull landing. T...

-The "on-fire" damage from getting touched by the stream (100dmg/s for 30s) IS affected by research as far as i can tell. -The "on-fire" effect is NOT a certain kill. It will deal a total 3000 damage to the target (without research, see above), which is equal to the health of a behemoth biter, but i...

I could imagine that the satellite is currently not sent into an orbit, but off and away on an eternal journey into space and it probably has a limited amount of energy to work with. From it's heightened position it can receive signals from the characters homeworld (or an outpost), and send down som...

It's not meant to be foolproof.

Few things ever are. It is practically never a problem for me. The thought just occurred to me and I wanted to see if I can screw myself - it worked. I thought it was funny and good-to-know, so I posted it here.
