Re: Factorio: Space Age is here!
NVM I think I solved it, but I couldn't find how to delete the post completely. Not sure if this is the right place to ask - is there a way to disable the wave-y graphics of the new ghosts? I have an older CPU with integrated graphics and it really lags the game even when pasting a smaller blueprint...

Re: Friday Facts #407 - Automating a soundtrack
So now that the DLC is out, is it appropriate to ask, when do you think the new music will be released as a separate download? I haven't found this info, but the FAQ states there are plans to release it.

Re: Excessive savefile load times
The issue is your blueprint library. It's *HUGE* - 613 megabytes. Every time you load a save file (or create one) the game starts transferring the library into the save so the contents can be used. You can resolve the issue by trimming some 95% of what you have in the library. Or just delete it com...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0
These are all very nice. In particular the decider change will make some things much simpler, significantly fewer entities. I like compact circuit builds. Also much faster the debug, instead of trying to disentangle the wire spaghetti. Can't wait to use these! The stack size combinator is also fanta...

Re: Friday Facts #382 - Logistic groups
Oh this is great, the groups are great and the combinator stuff is great too! Good QoL stuff. Rockets seem a little small, but if they are much cheaper, then I guess whatever.

Re: Friday Facts #381 - Space Platforms
Looks interesting. If we are talking about realism, the space platform shouldn't stop when the engines stop firing, it should continue moving... you'd need to decelerate to arrive... anyway. But a big plus for not having burners or robots in space! And i love the idea of space salvage and the tradeo...

Re: Friday Facts #378 - Trains on another level
This looks interesting. Although factorio will lose some of its 2D charm (OK, OK, we have underground pipes and underground belts already). Tho I never felt I had throughput issues on the train system, even on big megabases, there were always methods to solve it in 2D. Still, this is interesting. Bo...

Re: Friday Facts #377 - New new rails
NGL, I'm not super thrilled - the changes are OK, but there were already ways to connect nearby rails in a tight fit (train stackers hellooo), and having to redo hundreds of blueprints which might have curled rails in them (e.g. cityblock bluperints) will be a major pain. Unlike the other FFFs I don...

Re: Friday Facts #376 - Research and Technology
I have seen the unlock on trigger in mods before (e.g. Seablock), certainly has a particular appeal. Will be interesting to see the overall change to early game. Although having to research for mining drills is not my favorite (looking at you, Space Exploration).

As a very, very long time mac user - thank you for this. You could consider adding the 100% speedrun WR map (whatever it is at the time of testing) to your benchmark pool. Available and quite the nice test. That’s indeed a very good idea Just to note, Wargerr's 100% design is on the benchmark page,...

Re: Is using other people’s blueprints cheating?
Why couldn't I enjoy the game I want to? Well for one I find immense joy taking other people's imperfect blueprints and improving them. Why shouldn't I learn from others? Blueprints are also great when say i want to get to tech N+1 but don't want to deal with tech N. Furthermore, don't forget the hi...
