I also prefer some kind of server over that alien tower. For inspiration devs could look at pc cases steampunk mods. For example http://www.eelambiense.com/projectlogs/project_clunk/CLUNK_final_10.jpg It could be even modular, base with 2 slots and when we place module it would be shown in the slot....

New beacon looks nice bo I don't think it fit. It have too organic looks, some kind of tech-organic hybrid.
I imagine "beacon" like computing unit that optimize production process. Combination of server and borg cube

I think that we don't need colors because if separators are clearly visible then it's enough to see each rail block.
It can be green like signals indicators.

Why so much combinators? It can be done without any of them.

I don't know if it's a bug (it is for me) but when I set train on Manual mode and chose to go to any station, after arrival train stay in Automatic mode and if condition are all true then he depart immediately. I think that after arrival train should change on Manual mode. In short: Actual behavior:...

Thanks devs for supporting loaders even without default unlocking. They're quite good addition in factories, especially for items routing.

That poles are necessary? It would be great if that lights could be self sufficient. That's why solar panel and battery in recipe.

I posted about blueprints in other topic: Blueprints should be stored in account and be accessible in every game. We also should have feature to share ours blueprints. Something like save blueprint and make it private/public. Then when next person want to use it just click on import blueprint, and s...

Looks very promising
With that I will be able to build paths without that annoying poles everywhere and lamps with collisions. Just nice looking patch with lights powered by sun.

I posted reqest in mod section but I realized that Light floor could be part of YI mod (because this mod bring so much new floors).

i would suggest recycling only into rich-dust, unicomp (or useful-waste with transfer into uc) as best way. it would simplify the things, because from this you can create all new stuff with enough energy. maybe it's with code possible, so you don't need all the recipes, - throw something in, some u...

This loading music is annoying. I always mute speakers before load Factorio. I would like to have option to disable it.

Place Loader then press R on it. It will change direction. Loader have 2 bugs: 1. Don't overload loader or it will stop loading (you can reset it manually by rotate it twice). Always connect chest with belt before loader and set condition to stop belt when chest is almost full. https://i.gyazo.com/5...

I would ask for mod that add light floor. That floor could be made from combining Lamp, Portable solar panel and Battery MK2. It would be peaceable like concrete and light small area during night. It could be handy to light paths in factory. http://cdn29.ofero24.smcloud.net/t/adv/1d5c45313ea47efadda...

It looks great, thanks.

Could you make version with concrete that have regular edges like hazard concrete?

I'm using this mod and it'a quite useful but that power entities can't be connected manually and they have quite large connection distance (like medium pole). So when I place assemblers or beacons too close, they are all connected and I can't make separate networks.

As many people know, we have mods that unlock loader in v0.13. It's unofficial entity and not supported but give opportunity to test them in factory. Right now I'm playing with them and find out that I don't use them everywhere and aren't so OP as many would say. They're also not redundant with stac...

New rail system is ok but it allow to place too short rails like 1/4 of circle. Because of that it's little hard to determine is I need 1 or 2 more segment to connect parallel rails and 90% of the time I make mistake and have to rebuild it.

It's not bad, just can be done better.
