Blueprint - Parametrise with text

At the moment, I can get station names to show the symbols of items that I select using the Parametrise feature on Blueprints, but is there a way to have the text equivalent too? for example, in addition to showing the symbol of Iron Ore, I'd also like the text of Iron Ore after that symbol. Can thi...

Re: Friday Facts #380 - Remote view

Re: Friday Facts #324 - Sound design, Animated trees, Optimizations

The tree animation made my eyes water. Will there be a way to switch it off in game if I find it too distracting?

Is it just me, or when the ore goes on a bend to the right, there's a bit of a glitch in the appearance where the bend goes into the straight?

[0.17.8] Rotating unelectrified Red Inserter, Graphic unchanged

When I place a red inserter down in an area without electricity, then press R on my keyboard to rotate the inserter, the yellow arrow correctly shows the new direction, but the inserter itself retains the original orientation instead. Also happens with other inserters (eg. Blue) (When doing this in ...

Re: Friday Facts #282 - 0.17 in sight

Accuulators, how will the "zapping" work when you have two next to each other? Each with their own zap (so two almost on top of each other on the left and right side of the accumulator, and a bit more space on the top and bottom), or will they both share the same zap effect? If the latter,...

Re: Friday Facts #280 - Visual Feedback is the king

If a station is not reachable because of no pathhow about drawing the yellow line backwards from the station until it breaks? So it would be easy to see where the failure is. Third gif down sounds like it might help with this problem, Ctrl will highlight the route from the station to your cursor po...

Re: Friday Facts #280 - Visual Feedback is the king

Oh my, those UI changes in FF279 and FF280 look AWESOME! 0.17 is looking to be one of the best updates for an already fantastic game.

Thank you all for your hard work on this.

Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

If you are looking at ways to nerf robots, have them smash to the ground if they run out of juice instead of moving at very slow speed, where you then need a rescue bot to take them to a repair workshop to restore to working use. Any robots hovering around a robot port waiting for a recharge will st...

Re: Friday Facts #201 - 0.15 Stable, but not really
