Hello, I was trying to play around with trains and now I'm trying to move the train to specific places, but I found out that the train heads towards a placed entity (placed near the rail, like signals I suppose) but I'm not quite sure of it.

So my questions are, how can I select a single train and ...

Hello, I'm trying to make a little mod and i need to have a copy of the normal locomotive but a little bit more powerful and slower, so I wrote this code:


--data.lua

--====================================
-- defining shunter loco prototype
local shunterLoco = table.deepcopy(data.raw["locomotive ...

Hi, I'm building a super smelter and I have to build a bus of 6 lanes to feed the furnaces but looking online for lane balancer I see a lot of types and different shapes, but I still don't understand how it works, any help?

1. Missing comma after pollution = 50.
2. "prototype.module" is not a valid type. If you are using table.deepcopy() you should not change the type anyway.
3. data:extend must be given a table {}.


what I have to write instead of prototype.module?
you mean that I have to write data:extend{item ...

Hi, I'm trying to make a mod just for learn but I'm stuck trying to modify the effect values, here's the code:

-- copying the default modules
local op_speed_module = table.deepcopy(data.raw.module["speed-module"])
local op_production_module = table.deepcopy(data.raw.module["production-module ...

Hi, I'm trying to learn how to mod factorio and I don't understand how to make the grapich for a new building.

In this situation you can just run each lane through 2 splitters. The first will send half of the packs to one belt and the other half to the second splitter. The other splitter will then split the remaining half into quarters.

This isn't a perfect ratio (of course) but for this case it would ...

1) where does space science go? You need 4 belts. Your lines of labs only get 4 of the 6 science packs you have. You need belts on more than one side of the labs.

2) an S or O shaped belt will work nicely. With an O shape you need a ring of labs with and inner and outer ring of 2 belts each so ...

Hi, I'm setting up a science pack farm and the output it's a 3 lane bus

But I don't know how to split this bus in 3 more bus (to make 3 lanes of laboratories) but maintaining the alignment of the items, like this

Someone know how to do it?

Yeah but I have to output the same signal. The dispatcher signal (of a mod) to make that the train will go to the free station. I want to make that it will go in numerical order. 1, 2, 3, etc of free stations : D

Hi, I'm trying to make a system that if station 1 is free returns one, if the second is free returns 2. But if station 1 and 2 are free returns first 1 and when station 1 is occuped returns 2 etc. But I don't know how to make that only one combinator output can go when all other outputs of all other ...

How will larger stack sizes benefit the gameplay?


not only larger, if you want you can do it smaller too. Like a sort of personalization to the gameplay.
It will benefit the gameplay when you transport a lot of items around the map with trains, or for storing more items in less space.
without ...

I think it is a great idea to make a stack size modifier (like set it to 500 to iron or 200 for coal things like this) for every vanilla item or one multiplier for all items (like multiply by 10 every stack size)

I know that other mods do this but if anyone want to play without mods I think it is ...
