Re: Factorio is coming to Nintendo Switch™

Why no mod support? I’m guessing it’s either: 1) Lack of CPU power and/or RAM 2) Trouble porting the Lua library, since it uses JIT, and the Switch won’t let unsigned code be marked as executable. Also, not using JIT would make 1 even worse, as well as fragmenting the codebase 3) Issues with communi...

Way to catch up with server faster

I want a faster way to "catch up" with the server, when playing on a small server When playing a very large modpack and running the headless server, the client will often catch up with the server very slowly. This is because the client and server are both almost UPS capped, especially whe...

Re: [0.18] Sea Block Pack 0.4.4

I like Seablock, but I really miss the enemies. Is there a reasonable way to play Seablock on a normal map that just has no ores, but has normal enemies? (And probably a large starting area to exclude enemy spawns that are too close)

Quick single item blueprint from crafting menu

Not for macOS and Linux. I haven’t asked the developers, but I would guess that they wanted the same solution on all three platforms, rather than implementing an entirely different solution on windows.

Re: How to check for other mods in 0.13+?

You'll have to check to see if one if its entities exist (make it an optional dependency). That was the old way atleast, IIRC, so I assume it'll still work I think you also need a soft dependency on that other mod, to make sure it loads before yours. Then you can just look to see if the thing you w...

Retrogening ores (migration script help)

I'm rather confused about how migration scripts work, and was hoping for some advice. I am trying to update the mod RO (Resource Expansion) to 0.13.0. The mod is very simple. As you get farther from the starting point, it multiplies all patches of ore by a multiplier that increases as you get furthe...

Re: Possability of a GOG release?

business costs certainly, not something unlikely to happen. I'm not sure what you're saying. Are you agreeing that GOG would probably charge Wube Software for keys? Or are you saying that it might cost money, but that Wube Software should provide keys for GOG anyway? I think providing keys is nice,...

Glad to see hole-punching is working. I use manual port-forwarding, but it's nice to know it'll work for more people. Is it possible for a client to download a missing mod from the server, (or if not that, then an HTTP/HTTPS URL in the mod's info file)? I'm hoping that multiplayer's mod-syncing will...

Re: Friday Facts #140 - Soon

Factorio bugs are usually very specific and multiplayer or mod related. Considering very big chunk of update work was dedicated to multiplayer - I believe MP will have much less bugs.

I never actually found myself missing it until after I started playing Bob's mods. It might be because Bob has a lot of stuff that are bi-products of a reaction that you keep around because you'll need them later.
