[posila] [for 0.16] [0.15.X] Centrifuge looses green tint with NV goggles

With NV goggles equipped, Centrifuge loses its green tint seen at night while green-tinted lamps retain their colour.

Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth

Loader as modified inserter is definitely a NO in my opinion - easy to spam, which will make inserters obsolete. I can see loaders as "warehouse"-type structure - taking a significant space structure that works as a large chest while having a IN and OUT gates that can be linked to belts. P...

Re: Movable liquids and gases

I think it would be better if they wont be able to be transported at all.

Tank carts for long travel, and pipe for immediate piping. I believe it would make the game more interesting.

Re: Packagers

I am against it.

Space restriction is fundamental challenge of this game, together with time constrains. Resource availability not so much.


This suggestion only makes end-game easier. Which isnt needed.

Re: Splitting off one side of a belt

Please for the love of Bob - use Search!

this topic has been brought up many times in the past with significant and through arguments for and against this suggestion, in fact I believe even devs themselves stated already, that current design will remain as it is,

Re: Large Bridge Cranes

I would agree with Ssilk that (C) would be best out of 3. I wont necessary call it "space compression" but more like IKEA boxes: 1 unit that contains all necessary bolts and screws to build particular building. There are other ways to go around this problem: D) Buildings are unequal. All e...

Re: Peeps & Creeps

This is factory management game. Biters are used only as means of player control and challenge factor. Unless devs would come up with biological alternative for belts inserters and the like, playing as biters would be fundamentally against main gameplay. And even then it would be more worthwhile to ...

Re: Map generation: Starting VISIBLE area

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart({lefttop = {x = -1024, y = -1024}, rightbottom = {x = 1024, y = 1024}})
Just use this command at the beginning if the game.

Re: More barrels use

Yeah barrels are stupid, not only it allows handling liquids like average items (removing their uniqueness) it is also much more efficient (space wise) to store them in chests than in tanks :/

Re: Hi, and welcome to belt hell

None of these arguments were ad hominem This discussion is not about enforcing people to put cables on belts: they can do whatever they please. Point is not to become stuck in archaic thinking "cables on belts is bad" and keep an open mind about it, because there are some times, when it is...

Re: Renaming active provider chests

Current name tells me exactly what it does.

None of your suggestions do the same, and having passive provider called provider is confusing as well (since it provides after all storage chests are empty)

Re: Lane Splitter | Basics

We all have to admit though, we have all wanted a smart splitter, if not for filtering reasons, for reducing the amount of items (ie 1:16) down a particular line. Yes, we can achieve this with smart inserters and/or back to back multiple splitters, but the joy of Factorio is to research better tech...

Re: Hi, and welcome to belt hell

There are designs, that allow having 2,3, and more inserters bringing in materials. There are designs where it is much more preferable to conserve space. and finally there are priority belt designs that allow fine-tuning production on a level impossible with inserters alone. yes 9 items out of 10 il...
