I'm not entirely sure of all the logic that goes on when choosing a miner when pressing 'q', but it appears to take your inventory into account.

This means when you press `q` over any ore patch from remote view you will always get a lowest level miner for that patch.

This does not appear to happen ...

I was trying to use 'Read Contents' on a bio chamber to read it's fuel value so I could have some emergency nutrients production kicked on if they were empty.

When I asked about it, the suggestion from boskid was that if it be implemented, it be implemented as a separate 'read fuel' checkbox ...

Okay genuine Question here for people who "disable" Biters. Would it be bad if the Spawners existed on the Map but didnt spawn any Biters, when you disable them? Pretty sure that is what would be the case when you disable Biters in the future. The Spawners will just be "there" but not spawn ...

There is an email subscription option.

The link you posted is for the RSS feed (poorly worded imo), but the one at the bottom of the FFFs leads to the newsletter subscription that you’re looking for.

While this looks like a great idea... I don't like it. If this gets implemented by devs, there should be an option to disable it.

I don't like it because I don't need to be reminded of what I could do when I have no intention to do it. This might be a far fetched comparison, but to me it feels ...

Train stop names ticked by default would be a nice change as well…the whole point of a blueprint is to save and stamp else where on the map or save for a different map keeping the stop names…please put train stop names on by default


The train stop name being ticked by default happens if you don ...

Repro steps:
1. Place an assembler - select a recipe (I used asm3/green chips)
2. shift right click on the assembler.
3. hover over a yellow storage chest
4. run this command /c local player = game.player player.selected.copy_settings(player.entity_copy_source)


Actual result: A filter of 75 iron ...

TL;DR
It would be nice to be able to pick the icons from the Environment/Unsorted tabs when setting the icons for a planner.

What ?
See TLDR.

Why ?
Currently if you make a deconstruction planner that is only trees/rocks (whitelist or blacklist) they get some kind of special icon, and if you ...

why should it obviously be a passive provider chest?

I _much_ prefer to just have all the items return to the box they were made in than just sit around in an unorganized central storage.

I only use passive providers for intermediate's that I'm positive are continually consumed.

Heck, I'd say the scroll wheel should work if your pointer is anywhere in the entire dialog. What else are you going to scroll?

Maybe if you're in the tab area it should scroll you between tabs, but otherwise, the slider at the bottom is the only thing that makes sense to scroll.


The slightly ...

@koub. Thats pretty close yea. Thanks!

I don't think the scroll wheel should work in the _entire_ blue area, but at least in the red area, but to the height of the blue area.

The blue area was just to outline the compared click height of the other inputs across the box.

TL;DR
There should be more area around a range slider where using the scroll wheel affects the slider.


What ?
In the image below, the pink square represents how much of the UI is available to use the scroll wheel on the range slider compared to the blue square which shows the rest of the UI ...

Hmm, when you put it like that it makes sense.

I was thinking of it in terms of using an upgrade planner in a blueprint.

I ran into this issue today. I upgraded a bunch of small electric poles to medium electric poles that were in close enough proximity for the medium's to make new wire connections to each other so they did. I would have expected them to just retain all their existing connections and not make any new ...

Since the wiki points to this thread, I'm resurrecting it from the way past dead for working instructions for the latest version (1.1.50, and macOS).

Not sure which version specifically this was introduced, but it's been around for a couple releases at least...

The 'X' on the close preview button when you start a new game is looking a little big, and also a little cramped.

TL;DR
Ability to filter the Armor Slot


What ?
I would like to be able to filter the armor slot so only the filtered type goes in the slot.

Why ?

1) Mostly this is useful in some of the comfy/redmew scenario games (like cave miner, dungeon floors, etc...) but you end up picking up lots of ...

Splitters are too massive in my opinion to be useful in busses.

They can look pretty nice tho:
