TL;DR

Making custom sections in a Factoripedia entry would help mods document their own functionality.

WHY?

Truly high-quality, user-friendly mods provide the player information about their features, in-game. Factoripedia is a massively useful tool for this, but the functionality is limited ...

WOO! This is super cool. Thank you!

TL;DR

When you have lots of space platforms, the list gets cluttered.

WHY?

With the advent of space platforms being able to request items from one another, orbital factory infrastructure is a super viable design strategy, creating space factories making ammo/fuel for passing haulers, etc. It ...

ALSO!

Almost forgot: a separate graphics set for when connected/not connected would be super cool, and an option to show a flashing icon when not connected.

TL;DR
Landing pad unloading bays are currently hard-coded to only allow unloading when connected to a cargo landing pad, it would be cool if they worked with space platform hubs, too.

WHAT?

When removing the surface condition restriction for landing pad unloading bays, they can be placed on ...

TL;DR

The ContainerPrototype is as of 2.1 rotatable (yay!), the ProxyContainerPrototype is not. This is incongruent and inconvenient and seems like a slam dunk fix.

WHAT?

Basically the Proxy Container seems like it should 'just' be a container with the added feature of being a proxy inventory ...

You can just mod in that burners take 'food' and 'nutrients' as burnable categories. I do that for the Heating Tower in a mod I'm working on, it is super easy:

Oh, sorry, I missed that part that you are running X11, just like me. So, more similarities. You even have the same amount of RAM as me (64 GB) :)

Anyway, if you flash any USB stick with Mint, boot computer from it, launch the game there, that could help resolving this. Mint should have Radeon ...

I'm not sure that repair pack requests are a thing that makes sense for roboport requests. Remember: these requests don't cause logistic bots to bring something to the roboport. They cause that thing to *come to the roboport*. Repair packs can't fly themselves to the roboport, so this mechanism is ...

You can configure a Limit, sort-of.

You can specify multiple Qualities of Robot in the Robot Request, as in the left-side Roboport. If the number of Requests meets or exceeds the number of Slots, then "Extra" robots will evict themselves into nearby Roboports ...

TL;DR

Make the roboport requests more like logistic requests, being able to set a maximum number.

Also request repair packs.

WHAT?

Basically the roboport request interface feels half-baked, and missing the full feature set of other logistics requests. It is possible to set a minimum number ...

I also use Linux, XFCE, Ryzen, Radeon, just like you. The only difference being different distro - I'm on Devuan and Xlibre display server, and you are probably on Wayland?
I cannot reproduce this.
Launch your PC from USB stick with Mint or something and check there. If extra click cannot be ...

What happens?

Occasionally during gameplay, mouse clicks will register twice. The mouse-click sound plays twice.

It happens once every 1-10 minutes, enough to be noticeable

This happens with:

Queing crafting from the crafting menu: upon clicking a recipe icon once, two crafts will be queued ...

TL;DR

Parameterized blueprints are awesome, let's document them better.

What?

A guide in the Tips and Tricks menu, detailing how to use them. The nature of parameters, placing a parameterized blueprint, what it means that the parameterization is evaluated top-to-bottom, examples of how to use ...

TL;DR

Add mininum and maximum functions to the arithmetic combinator.

What?

Add `min` and `max` to the existing set of operators, and implement them in the obvious way.

Why?

In lieu of the decider combinator getting a major upgrade, the arithmetic combinator is in need of some extra ...

TL;DR

Add more advanced functions to the arithmetic combinator, with other than two arguments.

What?

Expand the functionality of the arithmetic combinator to have functions with one, two, or three arguments.

1 argument
Common single argument functions include:
negation (-)
bitwise not ...

TL;DR

Add explanatory tooltip popups for the operator/comparator dropdown, to the benefit of players unfamiliar with the symbols.

See also: [2.1] Make arithmetic combinators more readable for non-programmers.

What?

Provide a popup tooltip for the arithmetic operators which provides a brief ...

TL;DR

Change the display names of the operators in the arithmetic combinator to align with the commonly used mathematical notation, rather than the conventions used in programming languages.

See also: [2.1] Explanatory tooltips for operations in arithmetic combinators.

What?

Replace the ...

Very good point!

What?

In map/radar view you can deconstruct items in inventories by clicking on them, summoning construction bots to fetch them. Like so:

Decon.png

Deconstruction planners should be able to do this on a mass-scale, using filters.

Why?

The other day I wanted to transition several smelting ...
