Re: Item at Hand Flashes Periodically, Say Each 5s

Madness!
I am sitting here trying to find a mod that disables the item in inventory blinking because its obnoxious af when browsing a bunch of recipes.
And you want to add more of it.

[2.0.23]Dismantle progress keeps building

Holding the right mouse button over a building to mine/deconstruct it.
Move the mouse away.
Move it back onto the building.
The deconstruction progress does not reset and keeps filling up the bar.

This happens regardless wether the button is behind held down or pressed repeatedly.

New players are literally the reason Factorio is still around, they keep this whole project funded. Of course this dynamic changed a bit with Space Age which is more for veteran players, but there are no new ...

Re: Feels like certain changes were made to the game 'just because'


A reminder that these are for the first time players first and foremost β€” I guess Wube noticed that too few people were playing the demo / tutorial scenarios first, and instead jumping straight into freeplay ?


Which is an atrocious way of doing things.

Re: Space Age.. feels a little flat


Also the planets each has a specific challenge and puzzle type, scratching that itch for the various players. Some enjoy one, some most and some don't. That's how it is.
The developers were quite open with their intended gameplay with the weekly FFF.


And in some ways it worked great.

Re: Demolishers too easy to kill through some means.


Nilaus aptly demonstrates the problem here:

What problem is he demonstrating?
He has a bunch of damage upgrades.
The whole point of worm types is that they have multiple segments that can all be damaged.

Re: Space Age.. feels a little flat

How do people even care about quality?
Legendary being unlocked at the very end means quality itself gets unlocked at the very end.
You either go for legendary or you dont bother to even get started.

Re: Flip using F and G whith in-hand entities

sometimes you just make one rotate, sometimes 3, and then the R key start to cry because being hit too hard. ... Also people not knowing this feature add will double rotate like they are doing now.

I only have one rotation bound.
Using a second hotkey for 90Β° is worse than having to do a 270 ...

I want concrete removed from the game.
It is completely useless, a pain to make and at this point little more than a meme.

Re: Reduce need for Alt-Mode by putting Modules/recipes on building sprites

I quite like permanent alt mode because the new and improved models
of almost everything look bad.
With information-loaded icons i feel like im playing an actual game instead of someones trashheap.

I dont quite understand this.
Like many annoyances in this game basedefense is handled by having good blueprints.
On normal difficulty levels the amount of ressources spend on defense is a laughable percent of the total base.
Spend 2 hours in the Lab to make a handful of good blueprints from simple ...

Re: Include the "Even Distribution" mod in the base game

I had to use this mod once since my friend insisted on having it in our multiplayer.
I still do not understand what its supposed to be useful for.
