The problem disappeared once I saved-restarted-reloaded, so I don't think a save would be useful? I will take a look at the sound instances if the problem reoccurs.

I am doing a game of the mod Warptorio 2 expansion. After some hours of play, I noticed that most sounds were not playing. Notably the warp countdown alert. This worked well on the old sound engine. Restarting Factorio fixed it - this was not necessary on the old sound engine.

But lemmings biters are not normally know for their sense of self-preservation, with e.g. single biters running straight at walls of turrets...

Mines have an activation time, after which they become invisible to enemies. When this happens, biters who were targeting the mine seems to for whatever reason run far away from the mine, instead of trying to acquire a new target.

So some time ago I made "Blueprints ignore planned upgrades" (https://forums.factorio.com/73287), where I pointed out that a blueprint copy should implement ghosted changes to the thing being copied. This was implemented by Kovarex. However, there is one other case where "ghosted"...

Minor Features

• The announcement of player death now contains GPS tag with the location.

Nice ! No more pixel hunting.

@Kyralessa

That is clearly the superior gameplay design. I am surprised they haven't implemented it already. That way you could spend even more time on this the best part of Factorio.

I think every Factorio player knows about searching for your corpse, when you are not 100% sure where it is, to reclaim your expensive powerarmor and inventory. Frustrated pixelhunting for your corpse is clearly the best part of the game, central to the Factorio experience. My suggestion is to make ...

The 1.1.15 changelog said: - Allowed to build blueprints anywhere regardless fog of war. However, this seems to be inconsistent. if I hold e.g. a single powerpole in my hand and shift-click with it in the fog of war, I get the error message "Cannot build in fog of war". But if I have a blu...

Simpler test case. It seems clear that it just considers all belts going the other way as replaceable. IMO this is a real bug.

Thanks for the fix :). We have known about this bug for some time. But AntiElitz thought that this bug was covered by one of the other power pole bug reports, so we did not report it separately. The bug has not been there "forever" (I don't know how literally you meant that). Nefrums has u...

If you hold down the left mouse button with a power pole selected, the game is supposed to autoplace enough power poles so all entities are powered. However, as shown in the attached video, the top right inserter does not get powered, even though it should. Note that if I move the mouse so it does n...

My main issue is the failed attempts, which slows down to 1 per tick. What often happens is that there are many unconstructable ghosts in my world. And the queue will then repeatedly cycle through these unconstructable ghosts at one per tick, each time taking many seconds. So the suboptimal thing is...

the system checks 10 (CORRECTION, it checks between 1 and 4 by default depending on successes or failures) ghosted entities per tick I think it is between 1 and 3? max_successful_attempts_per_tick_per_construction_queue is 3 when I print it out ingame. max_failed_attempts_per_tick_per_construction_...

This seems like an obviously good idea to me. I have never ever wanted dragged power poles to destroy ghosts.

blueprint-storage.dat attached.

I want this!

Another example of why remembered power connections should not be default, from Nefrums' speedrun yesterday: https://clips.twitch.tv/HedonisticCuriousSardineKappa Blueprinting something, and then dragging power through it along the blueprinted power poles, seems like a reasonable use case to me. But...

Relative, please!

One way to "fix" the power pole blueprinting would be to have a checkbox when creating it, saying "save power wire layout". Default off. Like the "include trains" checkbox.
