it's also nice to see the blue (yellow/red) line between the items to make it clearer which belt is underneath. functionality is already present - you can clearly see the moving arrows on the Belt even if it's completely backed up. and that means you can see the color. ergo, already present. you wo...

If there would be a visual change to the belts I would vote for the suggestion of siggyboy.It doesn't solve the problem of the belts consisting of two seperate lanes but it would be a nice adjustment and it's also nice to see the blue (yellow/red) line between the items to make it clearer which belt...

So we all agree that this is a rather minor problem due to the fact that there is no difference between outer and inner lane, except in an on demand system. The only question left: is it really a good idea to use belts like in my example for an on demand system. The overhead produced due to the belt...

If it is an on-demand production there is still no difference Compared to a strait belt of the same number of sections the U shape you tested is indeed slower(both lanes total Items per second) in an on demand setting. Having said that, the slow down may be due (in part) to a function of how insert...

Hi, the whole problem with this is only that the belts are moving at constant speed (even in corners) where they would normally speed up (radial movement). So the outer lane is longer than the inner one. This has already been stated. And yes: that is unrealistic because belts don't work this way. BU...

Hurray,

Patch 0.12.4 did it. Making the server work as a relay fixed my issues. I didn't change anything on any of the computers/server and it worked like a charm. Thats what I was waiting for. Thanks to all Devs who fixed MP

Thanks for the link. I may look at it but at the moment I'm just changing my script to fit my needs. I don't have any real goals for it. Feel free to use it though.

Changes:
- Changed install routine
- Added map create
- Added map delete

I upped it as an attachement. Feel free to use it at will. This script is under "Public Domain"-License. WARNING: I take no responsibility for false usage. Interesting, thank you =) might I ask what the purpose of symlinking saves is? I presume you use this to store the saves exactly wher...

We already opened the ports in Windows Firewall and forwarded them through the router. As I said we can both host games for another. I appreciate your help but I already tried all of this. Thats why I'm out of ideas what else could be the problem...

I'm sorry I don't have a client log at the moment. But still here is the server log.

We already played with 3 people without the headless server but not with the current version.

Hi there, I don't know what else to do. Maybe somebody of the people out there has an idea. I set up the 0.12.3 server on a Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS. I got my IPTABLES configured to allow traffic on port 34197 (udp). Now the problem: -> 2 people tried to enter the server via internet -> The first one...

If there is public request i could upload a starting script for linux (written by me) which enables multiversion support, creating maps and starting a server. I'm interested in seeing your init script, I'm maintaining one of my own over at https://github.com/Bisa/factorio-init and getting ideas for...

[Battle] Head hits table critical!

I used the wrong version. Didn't see that. Thanks alot.

Is it only me or did they really remove the headless server options in 0.12.2? Did you try the command? The changelog mentioned allowing dots in the file paths for it now, so it's highly unlikely they removed it. Perhaps they just didn't add it to the help switch output? On another note, is that so...

When using a single user server you are completely right. It doens't matter where to put the files.

opt.PNG Thats what I call a "root directory" and without root you are not able to write to this directory. But maybe I know why we can't find a consens: I worked with servers at the university. So multiuser server is nothing unknown to me. When I try to put up servers I always have in min...

PLEASE! Do not advise people to put programs to "/opt". A software should always be run from a dedicated user. Running from "/opt" would require to run the server as root (which is always a bad idea). Uhm what? I'm pretty sure I can execute binaries in /opt as user. You could bu...

Just my two cents but for the headless server wiki: New entry: factorio --create mapname -> Creates a new default map for your server with "mapname" as name (can be used to run the server | no need to upload a map from your computer) Also for the linux server: PLEASE! Do not advise people ...

Rail Signals always react to a rail segment between two signals or the end of the rail. Following rules apply: -> Signals only permit traffic in one direction -> Placing one signal on both sides of the rail will permit two-way traffic -> Use the indicator shown on the rails (little arrows) to see wh...
