Re: [1.1.88] Crash loading save as host (SteamContext::getSteamID)

Eventually, we were able to find a way around the issue by finding a time we could both be online. When I hosted the save as multiplayer, he was able to join, and take a save. Then he was able to host that save without any issues. Something he told me struck me as odd. When he was playing the save a...

[1.1.88] Crash loading save as host (SteamContext::getSteamID)

I created a modded save in singleplayer on my computer, with the intent of sending it to my friend to host as a multiplayer game. I am able to load the save as singleplayer on my PC just fine, and so is he. But when he tries to load it as a multiplayer game, he gets a hard crash. Steps to reproduce:...

Re: Only one train beeing dispatched to a station

What are your thresholds set to? On both ends - what are your provider station provider thresholds and your requester station requester thresholds? You're requesting 1.5 trains worth of iron ore at your requester (I'm assuming "Max Min wagons 4" means cargo wagons specifically), so 4 wagon...

Re: Stations act as provider without marking them as such?

Well it doesn't, when I add back in the combinators - which have a "requesting xyz" value of 51k and a value threashold of -200k the trains still go there as if it's a provider - when there are only a few k items. That sounds right for the *requester* values. What robot256 was correctly p...

Re: Seperate Personal Roboport Construction Zone Sprite and Roboport Construction Zone Sprite

+1.

I like the idea of being able to tell where my personal roboport construction zone is when I'm inside a larger network.

Re: Insertion limit for labs should account for lab speed (just like it does for assemblers)

+1 to this suggestion.

It would be especially useful in Space Exploration, as the sample video shows.

Re: Command to spawn a naturally-looking ore patch

I know, I know, I'm necro-ing an old thread.

I just wanted to say thanks for the script - it's very useful! It's great to use when I add a mod that adds a resource after I've started a game.

Re: Disabling depots

Super old thread but still comes up in google. To prevent non-empty trains from dispatching: Wire the Depot train stop to a Rail signal in front of it. If train not empty, then disable the rail signal. Can also add a speaker for an alert too. Works for both standard and fluid cargo. Yup, this idea ...

I'm loving this set of mods mixed in my K2SE game, thank you for that, Brevven! Speaking of other mod compatibility, I have a few questions: K2 recently changed their dirty water filtration so that it doesn't give back 100% of the water that went into it.

Re: [1.1.41] Crash loading save: "TransportLine.cpp:872: this->items.distanceToNext >= 0 was not true"

The corruption here reminds me of https://forums.factorio.com/97743. The 8.2 million number is also consistent between the two reports as well. I wish I had something useful to say beyond this, but I thought it worth pointing out that such a specifically large number appeared in both reports, and I...

Re: [1.1.41] Mod changelog list is reversed

In-game the changelog is always oldest to newest, even the base game changelog, So this isn't a bug Would it be possible to have a user setting that could change this? For me, when I play, I am usually only looking for "what changed between the version of a mod I'm currently using and the newe...

Re: Error "No Train Found...."

Are the trains at depot stations? Specifically, are they at LTN stops that are receiving the "Is Depot" signal? Are the depot station, the requester station, and the provider station all in the same network? (If you haven't set any network ID values, then the answer here is yes.) Are the ...

Re: Bug when quit game on Mac

A similar thing has happened to me before. In my case, I found that the problem started when I got my first large (~300MB) save file (it was a Space Exploration playthrough). Ever since then, it takes Steam forever to synchronize saves. My solution has been to turn off cloud saves. I periodically re...

Re: Friday Facts #362 - Menu simulation, Spidertron, Ghost building, Confirm button

FFF #362 indicates that there will be a Factorio logo that will be "buildable in the map editor without the use of mods". I have a few questions about this, being as pedantic and curious as I am. 1) Will the Factorio and/or Wube logos be buildable/placable in vanilla freeplay? If not, and ...

Re: How to mine quartz?

The way I discovered what machine I needed to use to mine quartz was by walking to the quartz patch and pressing 'q' (or whatever your picker hotkey is). That will pull up a ghost of the machine you need to use in order to be able to mine it. Heads up - you'll also not use standard miners for borax,...
