TL;DR Turning controls are different for tanks and cars. Make them be the same so muscle memory doesn't suffer. What ? Currently, cars and tanks turn differently when reversing. The proposal is to make them both be the same (favoring the cars functionality I guess?). If you don't follow, do the fol...

+1 Noticed it wasn't a feature, but it seems like a natural feature to the upgrade planner. Not a huge issue for me personally, but still. (On a side note, I wonder if the reason it's not been implemented just has to do with tiles? Seeing as how tiles tend to be dealt with differently in the planner...

The merged suggestion seems different from the original intent of the topic, which was the power bars, as opposed to production stats.

If you click continue/respawn, you can check the chat log to see what killed you, since it shows up there.

I, for one, have complete trust in Wube's ability to deliver. I'm sure a very large portion of the playerbase feels the same way, but perhaps it isn't quite as big as one might hope.

A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is always bad.

I'm kind of speculating, but it feels like the short answer is "decent idea but not worth the effort (right now)". Like mentioned, not being needed in vanilla makes it a lot less desirable of an idea. I don't think even building a hashtable of any sort would be even remotely trivial. At fi...

It's not so much that the resources increase, it's more that it's hard to tell exactly how much you can get out of an ore patch in total if you're rapidly researching productivity upgrades. It will eventually run out. The only way to prevent that would be to constantly add new mines which requires m...

This seems very useful. I've wanted to do several of these on more than once occasion but they're such a pain to make on the spot. And like you said, hard to find as well... Big thanks! Well done making them have full throughput, as well as cataloguing their latencies! It is somewhat sad that mere d...

Very cool to hear the expansion progressing. It's nice to hear, and I'm glad you're able to share something about what the development is like even though you obviously can't reveal much about it yet.

Also good job on the Switch release!

There is a "Trains" button next to the others by the minimap. It lists all trains and it also has a tab to show all train stations. Have you seen that one before? I've found it does what I need.

It's (misleadingly) not the full story, because there are two factors that affect an entity's pollution: Changes to its power consumption Changes to its (displayed) pollution attribute The actual pollution is the relative energy consumption multiplied by the pollution value. Prod module 1's have +40...

I do agree it would be very good if "lamps screens" were more readable. So many nerfs to them for so little reason. I get that the sprite was remade several times and that it quite possibly was an oversight, but it would definitely be a good change. Something as simple as darkening the gla...

I played on deathworld in SE 0.5 and it seemed rather close to vanilla deathworld. I can't comment on pollution or evolution settings, I didn't notice a difference, they seemed fairly normal to me as well (unless they changed in 0.6 which seems unlikely though.) Unfortunately, I have no idea about t...

This issue has been resolved for me in the past few weeks. I'm not sure when exactly, but I no longer get the error message shown in the opening post. I'm not sure if it getting fixed coincided with an update of Steam (specifically, Steam, not Factorio on Steam ). There was a note about something va...

I'm having this issue as well since last week. On ver 1.1.61 currently. I don't feel like fiddling around with files and restarting the game repeatedly and trying to find some random games. As long as it doesn't cause issues I'm ok with clicking the box, but it would be great to know if it's actuall...

In most scenarios, the end result would be that most trains just stop as the factory backs up, until that one key train can move again, to supply that last missing part of the production cycle. After that, a similar train cycle might repeat as the factory kicks into action again. If you claim that t...

Concrete causing a loss in pollution absorption is probably a fair trade for granting movement speed, however I'd say it's excessive that it loses 100%. Something like 80% would be enough, and you'd still maintain some natural absorption that way even with crazy plays like covering every tile with c...

There's a setting in vanilla which enables automatically placing ghosts when you don't have that building type in your inventory.

To chime in some: If two items combine into just one, then at least one full item's worth of durability has been used up across both items combined, as otherwise they couldn't combine into just one item (they must be at 50% or lower on average, meaning at least 50% durability has been used on each i...

That's very peculiar. I have a lot of builds which rely on this behavior working properly, and they do work. It's pretty standard behavior that belts can't sideload onto a full belt. The tail of the belt will always have priority. (It's literally the reason why many "1 splitter lance balancers&...
