I think that the reported bug is not in step 4 (the bioflux spoils) but in step 3 (the inserter tries to put bioflux in the uncaptured nest when it can not).

follow-up on Case 1 and 2: 128715

This is a follow-up for the last two rows in Case 1 in 126645 .

The first row in the image below is the starting setup for the bug.

For the second row, I dragged west-facing belt from the east (loader) to the west.
For the third row, I dragged west-facing belt from the west (loader) to the east ...

As spectator, I've always felt the map creation settings speedrunners chose as "cheating". They're running a challenge, no question, but they're easing up the game and playing just a part of it, not the full game. A 100% speedrun without having to actually deal with enemies isn't really 100%, isn ...

Adding to the achievements discussion: please keep in mind that the run durations mentioned by AntiElitz are those of quite experienced runners, familiar with the category and layout of the run. For newer players (either to Factorio speed running in general or to this category) those effects would ...

+1 for "reverting" to old behavior, at least for the circuit network case. I (and I imagine everyone else) are perfectly okay with the clamping for things like sums of logistics groups in requester chests or when reading from a miner set to "read patch", as in those cases it just makes more sense ...

I have come across some more smart belt bugs.

Since there are currently quite some bugs reports concerning smart belts, I was wondering what is currently the best way I should report those bugs:
- file one new report with all "new" bugs I can find (like I did here)
- file a new report for each ...

I'm on 2.0.10 and it doesn't seem to be fixed yet.

TLDR:
Add setting for custom minimal payload for the auto requests on space platforms.


When setting a space platform to auto request missing construction materials, only full stacks get delivered to the platform, which in some cases is really annoying. Eg. I'd like to just paste a new platform ...

That is just not true.
You can still see the content of chests, inserters' hands, belts as well as recipes of other forces, the list probably goes on. And you don't get any of this if you build it yourself (you get the recipe if copying but certainly no items).
And since the inserter bonus is the ...

Faster subsequent rocket launches = nope
- if you make the expansion such way that more rockets is needed, then rather add new tech, more tonnage ( item capacity) technology to research.
- start of a rocket should stay a precious moment, always. Do not add inflation, rather make it even more ...

With the first and second iteration, you could see where each of the items in a network currently are. This information can be really valuable in some circumstances (like when changing some part of the base but forgetting to remove one single request).
I think it would be a really nice if there was ...

I tried to update from 1.1.104 for 1.1.106 but got the message
Update failed: Checking update packages failed: File D:/Factorio/Factorio normal/data/changelog-switch.txt has unexpected content

Restarting the game doesn't change this.

I added the logs of both game sessions and the mentioned file.

There are adapters from DVI to HDMI/VGA for about $5-15 if that would help.

Remove the more than 1 million (!!!) ghosted landfill south of the west solar field and north of the east solar field and bots will work again.
The game has to iterate over all ghost tiles and doing so with 1 million takes so long (I guess 1 per tick if they are out of roboport range, so almost 2 ...

Is it possible to start a replay from the command line (and set the simulation speed to 64)?
It would be really helpful for me as I'm trying to automatically get some information out of replays.

video of the run itself for reference:

The worst case could be that you blueprint assemblers with module type A in them but the recipe need module type B. Now it becomes a race between bots and inserters which basically rely on the randomness of which entities are placed first. So you could mess up ratios, consume way more power for ...

Kind of sounds more like a suggestion and not a bug.

Also, I sounds like a really bad idea to insert modules into the module slots of assemblers AT ALL.
There would then be modules in assemblers which are not supposed to have any.
The worst case could be that you blueprint assemblers with module ...

Now it also works for me...
I will check again once a new update is released.
