Bug occured while pressing the "back" button on the server browser. I was playing a multiplayer map before. After exiting, i checked the server browser, and while hitting the back button, the game crashed. Screenshot is from the moment of the crash, with the button still highlighted. I had...

All these performance optimizations. Awesome! I have a nagging fear that the code moves from inefficient but clear to very efficient but very convoluted. And at some point, you cant change a data structure anymore without having many side effects in different code pieces. the FFF sounds like the ins...

The same issue happend also with 0.13.16: Biters build new bases too close to player structures. Sometimes they build new bases within tower range. They get attacked but still manage to make the base. They also spawn extremely close to your rails: factorio.png There is no option to defend the train ...

Any chance upgrading this to 0.13? I tried it and it got recognized as 0.12, even though i could not find any specific version number

I started a new map with 0.13 (no errors on download or startup by the way) and played some hours with two others. What i noticed: With two players everything runs smoothly. As soon as the third player connects the game slows down a bit. The order of players does not influence this, and all have dec...

I started a fresh map in singleplayer without any mods in 0.12.2. When i replay the map it generates the error: "Game::connectToPlayer: Different player already connected." I have several savefiles from this map, ALL error at the exact same ingame-time. Replay speed does not influence the ...

Ah, did not noticed the event, my bad

The script explanes much, however, if i hook the same event, is the freeplay script called first or my function?
Can i disable the freeplay script somehow?

Greetings :) I want to use the rocket silo to launch other (modded) things into orbit. however, either you launch the correct satellite and "win" the game, or you get the message that you forgot the satellite. Is there a way to disable this message? And is there a way to get an event / not...

Just a small graphical detail. I launched my third rocket today, looks extremely epic, but i think
some smoke from the engine could enhance the feeling.

See https://youtu.be/zsJpUCWfyPE?t=80 for example

Finally got the power priority working. Should work as intended now, with accumulators, solar panels,
steam engines

Also working on a bigger transformator with more power capability.

See original post for 0.0.4 version

After several tests i narrowed it down to the type of generator. if i set the usage_priority to "solar", no luqid inside the steam engine gets used. if i set the usage_priority to "secondary-output", the liquid gets used as normal. if i set the usage_priority to "primary-out...

I downloaded the mod and tried it. Works really well, nicely done :) This got me thinking, now you can build a simple factory without electricity. coal.png (Runs entirely on coal) If we had a coal powered research lab, you could skip the steam engine entirely. So a map without any water would be pla...

Hello :) Im trying to convert my mod "Transformator" to 0.12, but have trouble doing so. Behind the scenes i use a dummy building which can be charged by one network. In the script i exctract power from it. With this power the amount of hot water is calculated, to make a dummy steam engine...

Same error occured to me in multiplayer. I was collecting items on a belt (with a small lag, so the items visually disappeared a few moments later). My mate was driving in a car, exiting it and tryed to place a wall. He said about 2-3 seconds after exiting the car the crash occured. Savefile is a fe...

I just finished the 0.12 Freeplay mode and launched the first rocket! This game is absolutly amazing :D So far, i played this map (completely without mods, 0.12) for a little over 24 hours. I had one crash while alt tabbing (crashfile shows error in allegro), and after i launched the rocket, the mes...

I wanted to host a singleplayer save in multiplayer. This crashed after creating the game.
See error log and world attached.

Error NetworkInputHandler.cpp:431: Cannot deduce player for input action.

Im playing without mods at the moment.

This is really strange, im looking into it right now... seems 0.12 changed something about the energy system. Currently the transformator produces power even without input. Normally the transformator would drain the accumulators as soon as they are connected, given you have a load on the other side....

I updated the original post with the template, but pasting the same information here will be confusing too.
Not sure what to do

Just got an idea, maybe 3x7, but now it requires an active oil cooling. So you need a pump which runs continuously, which
would increase the power capability.

You are mostly looking at train accu usage. You got me there :D A new tier of transformators, what should be its power rating? Real life transformators can go to 500MVA, some even higher. Maybe 200MVA? How big should it be? 4x6 ? (Offtopic: amazing how the player can carry a few stacks of hundreds ...

1. There is a power limit of 10MW on one transformator - is that by design? Yes this is intentional. First, it makes the code easier, because i have to at least provide enough energy for 2 ticks, and making the "output energy buffer" to large has some side effects. And i ran tests with an...
