Please consider having "e" confirm a number entry instead of entering "e"
I really like the usability enhancement you guys introduced with "e" to confirm on many menus. It's been great to learn as a muscle memory when I'm done editing something.

Air resistance... in space?
Can someone help me with why my "The Gulper" ship is so slow, given the thrust, engines, and weight? I have half a dozen other ships that aren't shaped like a giant hammerhead and weigh more that go faster with fewer engines.
The only conclusion I can draw is that the shape of the ship affects the ...

Possible to make a mod that allows putting / extracting from Cargo Bay?
Is it possible to make a mod that allows getting and putting things in the inventory of the main Cargo Landing Pad on a ship (or anywhere, really) through the Cargo Bays?
If so, is it simple?

Re: [kovarex][2.0.11] Super Force Building Over Belts Forces Incorrect Belt Orientation
Even though this case with the iron chest will get fixed in the next update, why wouldn't a simple rule of the like "don't place undergrounds when the blueprint (that is being super-force built) has an entity in the same exact location". The existing belt turning into an underground would make ...

[Genhis][2.0.16] Can't un-pause game while in Blueprint Editor
I ran in to a situation today where I was meticulously editing a blueprint, and my buddy paused the game because he was going AFK. I can't get to the escape menu or the console to unpause the game - there's not even a slash command (as far as I can tell) in the dedicated server console to unpause it ...

So I've been playing Space Age a lot, and one of the things that really grinds my gears is the fact that only 50 mags can fit in a 1-ton capacity rocket?

What is the point of productivity modules? The bonus they give is so small, they don't work for end products, you can't put them in beacons, and the relative change in productivity is even smaller when you use them on productivity-boosted machines like the electromagnetic plant.

This is a setup that naively switches to the oil with the most quantity. It does flushing previous fluids back into their tanks.

I mean, I don't know why it has to be ambiguous. Just bring me the first N number of items that match. If I want something specific, I'll make a filter for something specific.

Logistics bots won't bring higher quality items?
I must be doing something wrong; when I set a logistics request for "greater than normal quality" assembler 3's, the logistics bots don't bring them.
I'm standing right next to a passive provider chest with a bunch of them in it, but they don't seem to be activating.

Thanks. Seems like an oversight given that we can filter by item quality type on an inserter and through the circuit network.
