In light of the devs adding more visible consequences of pollution, I would like to suggest weather. Weather will affect the player and the player's environment/factories. Regular Weather: Sunny: Solar panels will work at their maximum in this type of weather. Cloudy Solar panels will be crippled in...

I can keep waiting for 11.22 I have a T-Shirt idea >T-Shirt with a module on the front of it. The text below it would be "Working at maximum (Whatever the module on the T-Shirt is, like efficiency)" >T-Shirt with a lab on the front of it, with text like "this isn't rocket science"...

RTS mode could be a possible function for the space stage of factorio. Imagine this, you left that planet with enraged biters and spitters hammering at your factory. You will STILL need a viable amount of land to get the colonists on the planet. Since you(the player) are no longer on the planet, who...

I have an idea for the behemoth! Considering they are to replace hordes of big biters ( which is a very good bit into the game) why not put out a small chance of a behemoth attempting to "colonize" near the player's base. They will be aggressively try to get closer and closer to the player...

I made this thread to post my defense against the spitters and for you wonderful people to show your ways to deal with the enemies. *NOTE: I buffed the enemies on the world gen. to stress test my set up, and to play dangerously ;) Initially I started my research by finding the range of Spitters, bec...

Moved from suggestions -- ßilk Reason for the idea: It seems like mining drills only scratch the surface of the ore deposit and I feel like there could be more underneath the surface. Currently in the game: >Resources disappear once exhausted >Small water ponds are annoying to walk around/work arou...

By the way, the wiki calls the biters arthropods, but they look like isopods to me. Arthropods are everything from scorpions to butterflies. Isopods are a smaller, more specific group of arthropods that look like the biters. Does anyone have any information that agrees or disagrees with that? I'm n...

- what about the worms? It's also kind of interesting, how good the other suggestion matches with this one https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=9418 I did read that suggestion before creating my suggestion. It may have influenced some parts of it to be honest :) I completely fo...

Question: where do the stingers came from? I mean: in the beginning there are no players buildings, where they are then? If I were to put an origin of the stinger, I'd say it is a migratory predator, nesting were ever food is plenty and housing is available. In the beginning, there were biter nests...

After playing the game for a long time I feel like I have an idea for changing up enemies and defense. It would be interesting to see a wasp-like enemy, they make a small nestand then expanding as it grows. The base of the idea goes on this. Some parts of a players base are left undefended (mostly o...
