Initial Edit Box Focus

... Note that for this to work best, it would also be nice if edit boxes ignored non-numeric keypresses and instead passed them through to the normal keyboard handler. Currently if I give focus to a numeric edit box and press "E", it puts the letter E in the edit box which is never useful. Instead it ...

Change default settings of Arithmetic Combinator to be "times one"

... To do this, both the input signal must be set, the constant value must be increased to one (which requires multiple clicks and use of the keyboard), and the output signal must be set.

It would make the process slightly less annoying if the constant value was set to one by default instead ...

Re: Sound menu checkboxes

... like that in the past but we didn't come to any conclusions. In general, we don't want cluttered settings. A mute checkbox is just a shortcut to setting a volume to 0, I'm not convinced it's worth cluttering the GUI for that.

Btw, there is a keyboard shortcut (unbound by default) for pausing music.

Allow selection of keyboard layout in controls settings

I used to use an alternative keyboard layout driven by software (ie, installing the keyboard layout on Windows). Wube is amazing, and the hotkeys in Factorio would automatically adjust to conform to the keyboard layout in use.

However, I've now switched to a QMK powered keyboard, where layouts are ...

Re: Option to change mouse sensitivity on Nintendo Switch (mouse and keyboard controls)

I looked at this previously and it didn't look like it was possible, as there's no such system setting.
But looking into it again after your suggestion, I found a solution and added the option for the second next release, Version 2.0.31 or 2.0.32.
You will find it in Controls settings.

Option to change mouse sensitivity on Nintendo Switch (mouse and keyboard controls)

I recently bought a wireless mouse and keyboard to more easily play on the nintendo switch. And I found out the mouse cursor is super slow i would love it if we could be able to change the sensitivity of the mouse on the switch. Right now the mouse is so slow that it puts me off playing.

Re: Auto quality upgrading

the quick and easy solution would be to simply upgrade quality only if the upgrade planner has quality filters set/relevant keyboard key pressed. Otherwise have it work as it does currently.

And the enter key is inconveniently located nowhere close to any of your hands when playing the game, as you rarely need the right half of the keyboard playing the game.
