I would like more information on how Rampant generates new biters and spitters. They have a favorite place to gather in high density, and I have tried to eliminate any spawners that could supply them. I haven't found mobile units marching in, but I'm not watching continuously.

Also, I have seen ...

Where are the basic instructions? I don't even know what button exits the interior. I also need information on what entries to make in the constant combinators on the ends. A blueprint of a worked example would help.

The displays for power and production are inconsistent in the placement of the panels for production and consumption. Is there a reason for this?


Can you be more specific? Images?


Both displays in one file: note the location of the production and consumption panels electrical versus ...

I'm not in front of my computer, so no images for a while.

For one of the displays, consumption is the left panel, for the other, consumption is on the right.

Thanks!

I had forgotten that.

new crash, this time it took down Windows, which then apparently looped trying to gather data; I had to power-cycle it.

Also, it ran Factorio Space Exploration, sometimes for weeks without stopping, with no crashes.

PSU meaning power supply? It's an gaming laptop, an MSI GE75 Raider 95E. I am not aware of ever having Direct3D crashes. I.m not sure where the control you are referring to is: in Factorio settings, or in Windows?

To clarify, I was adding, removing, and updating mods in the mod management screens ...

I had hit escape to freeze the game was considering & loading mods & disabling mods, went away and came back to a crash message asking me to post the log. I was running a fairly new Nullius game.

It also failed in delivering vulcanite blocks.

Also, delivering low density structures from orbit to Nauvis surface failed.

The payload is 10 water barrels.

The delivery cannon doesn't seem to deliver. I'm running Factorio 1.0.0, Space Exploration 0.3.109. The cannon visibly fires, its count of products delivered increments, but nothing shows up on the space station in Nauvis orbit (according to the uplink view). The cannon's target is Nauvis orbit, and ...

I had to go to OpenGL to get it to run at all. After applying various updates to drivers and Windows, the intermittent crashes stopped.

OK, got it.

I finally caught the crash while I was at the keyboard. The only things in the system log at the time of the crash are warnings, not errors:

DistributedCOM EventID 10016: The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID ...

I will do that, the next time it happens while I am at the keyboard. I presume you mean the system log? I do have a message, but I'm not sure it at the right time, since game crashed while I was away overnight:
The server Microsoft.SkypeApp_15.61.100.0_x86__kzf8qxf38zg5c!App ...

The screen also flashes red.

Clicking on my character when there is a fish on the mouse pointer results in a small reduction in health, not an increase.
