I have experienced some buggy behavior when trying to encase a spitter nest with walls. I am sometimes unable to place a corner wall around one of the nests, unless i remove an adjacent wall first. I have created a video showing off the behavior: Weird nest behavior with building.mp4 I have also hav...

While in the title screen, I saw one of the simulations Spidertron get the acid effect but the acid effect sprite is on the ground and not centered on the Spidertron main body. The acid sprite is a square BELOW the main body so this looks odd to me. I feel that it would make sense if the sprite was ...

I fixed the button position, but I can't reproduce the discrepancy between the limit of the textbox and the real limit, could you post the text that you used here, so I can reproduce it? I put the BP string in the first post so you could copy the text easily. Are you saying that you still could not...

I think the issue with this idea is that it doesn't solve the problem of having to connect the colors of the chain signal with their meaning. You make a valid point. Currently, the signals are this: https://i.imgur.com/QeIMxx8.png Red = Red Signal Yellow = Yellow Signal Green = Green Signal Blue = ...

You say that you have to stop playing a game and read documentation to use and understand the game's features? You don't find that in the least bit off-putting? Oh, the horror. You actually had to read an entire tooltip . That is exactly like "when a weatherman lies". I grew up with games...

Blueprint description gets cut off by 8 characters when saving after reaching max character limit. https://i.imgur.com/oYk6gcG.gif 0eNqlk89q20AQxl9l2ENPUhorcpIacrBJ2h4SWuoUCpYo69VEGrLeEatVHGEMeZY+Wp+kI8kEFwqF9iJmR59++ubP7tTatlh7ckHNdqrAxniqA7FTM7WigJsr8uxi9piPR8N1jf63hLaHsAnsMIeb5+C16SGzzP18+QHX5NEE...

This issue is inconsequential to veteran players. it the new players that need this change. And new players don't use circuits... If you need to know the signal names, you're dealing with circuits, with train pathfinding etc. None of that is possible without reading the docs. So yes, chill dude. Th...

but in my opinion, it is a bad design The sheer arrogance of coming in here and telling folks their game is badly designed absolutely astonishes me. Recently there has been this trend for threads here picking at the most pathetic inconsequentialities and calling it "bad design". Todays is...

that's not the point.

It's like when a weatherman is lying about the weather for the day. individuals will eventually figure it out but it's still a hindrance to the learning process.

Saying what is not good is the easy part. Any "Ideas and Suggestions" regarding what the names should be? red > Blocked Yellow > Incoming Green > Clear Blue > Impeded OR Obstruction these are ideas that come to mind, but I'm sure others will be able to find words that would be a better fit.

Names such as Red or Blue are incomprehensible to their nature. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!? With the new updates and the drive to make the game mechanics' descriptions and names more uniform and comprehensible. One thing that has been bugging me is the fact that the rail signals names are not clear. Sure, ...

Hello, I am requesting a way to be able to grab the BP string when a player posts it in chat. Currently, the only known way to me is to search a player's cursor hand when they post a message but if the player posts the message while the BP is not in their hand, it will fail. Here is the post I made ...

Thanks, guys! I may make a request for devs to make this available in the API

Put this script in control.lua. It listens for blueprints and dumps them to a custom file. script.on_event(defines.events.on_console_chat, function(event) if string.find(event.message, "%[special%-item=internal") then local player = game.players[event.player_index] local item = player.cur...

Hello, I have a discord bot that syncs up the discord chat and factorio chat. One of my goal features is that when a user puts a blueprint in the chat, I wish for my bot to grab the corresponding string from the factorio server and render it into an image. The image can be rendered using the famous ...

Try again now.

it would seem that you are mistaken, the post was made a few minutes ago AFTER the update.

The Blueprints inside the book do not render in the mini display correctly. let me know if you need more info https://i.imgur.com/Lbu4Vrh.png book string: 0eNrtnWFvm0YYx78K4rWd8dwDHESKNG17M6nTXnTSJqVWRGySohKwME4WVZX2WfbR9kl2QJxgh3sOGjum6VOpTeznOO5+gZ+v7v/cz/Zluo6XRZKVF5d5/sk+/fz0zMo+PW89rGqLeDUvkmWZ...

I agree, removing the ability to easily sharing of blueprints is a massive step back. When I play multiplayer, I don't play the game as a puzzle but a conquest to increase outposts to ultimately help other players with resources. When there is a need to increase the production of an item, instead of...

When using the in-game name change command such as : /c game.player.name = "new_name" /c game.players["original_name"] = "new_name" The player is correctly renamed but once that player logs out and logs back in, the player's data becomes entirely reset as if it's the fi...

Bug crashes all logged in players client's Below is a blueprint to recreate the crash. I will try to describe how I setup the crash. 1. make a loop with two train stops with names that do not match. 2. run trains on loop that go to each stop. 3. make sure trains are automatic and full of fuel 4. ren...
