Saved multiplayer servers list

TL;DR I wish there was a player-controlled/edited multiplayer servers list just like Minecraft has. What? I think the game's menu structure is still lacking one major component: a list of (only) player-added servers, with a player-added server name and maybe a description per each server. The list ...

Re: Doodads and plants over concrete floors :(

This is the number one thing I wish will be fixed/changed before 1.0 comes out. I think it would be nice if the doodads/shrubs simply would not render if there is a pavement tile of any kind in that location. So removing the pavement should allow the original shrubs to render again. This is one of f...

Re: Friday Facts #330 - Main menu and File Share Shenanigans

Since you are now reworking the main menu, could you also add a menu under Multiplayer for (only) user-added servers? Basically I would *really* like to have an equivalent Multiplayer menu to what Minecraft has. This is one of the very few things I think the game is missing anymore from being more o...

But if people start using that real time for game logic, then things will break... And I assume adding it to th...

Re: Better event logging OR time functions from os to the API

Never going to happen unfortunately, as any of these OS values are not deterministic Hmmm... what do you mean by that exactly? And I don't quite understand how asking factorio about the current system time would be problematic? But in any case, the method ssilk suggested about an event that periodi...

Better event logging OR time functions from os to the API

Are the chat etc. messages that were "recently" added (as mentioned in viewtopic.php?f=66&t=27197) not logged into the log file at all? I see them on the server console, but not in the factorio-current.log file. I just spent a few hours looking into factorio modding, and I was trying t...
