The graphics are the slowest part of those games. The graphics are NOT the slowest part of Factorio. The simulation in factorio is much more CPU intensive than any of those other games.

Even if this isn't supposed to work, it's still a bug that the user is not informed of why the game is broken. At the very least, there should be a dialog that says "update process interrupted due to change in file XXX".

I am trying to make a type="car" entity and use the attached sprite sheet. I have made an exact copy of the "car" entity and changed only the pictures attribute as follows:

pictures =
{
filename = "__im-on-a-boat__/graphics/entity/raft-sheet.png",
line_length = 8,
frame_width = 48,
frame ...

Agreed, having language-specific forums only splits the community. Do you mean this about having different forum websites, or about having language specific sub-forums on the same site?

Here is a forum that is 90% german, 10% other languages, and it works well to have language sub-forums on the ...

And it's flagged as advanced-manufacturing, which prevents assembly by hand, I think? Good question. I'm gonna fall back on it not being ready.

PS: 0.9.2 has an item entry for small-plane but no entity entry for small-plane, so planes might not work yet?

Assembling Machine 2 has 4 slots, that should be enough.

This appears to be a deficiency in __core__/locale/en/controls.cfg

I, too, prefer the old behavior. I made a feature request to make things behind the alt icon more visible, but this is not what I had in mind.

I am sad to report that the mod doesn't quite work with 0.9.2, it makes my game crash when I try to load a game, even a newly generated and just saved/loaded right at the start.

I have no clue about what does that, so I can't help fixing it, and that's sad, because it was a very decent mod, when ...

They are bright pink squares on the mini map. I think that if you are using a save from before 0.9 that you'll have to explore new chunks of the map for them to get generated.

If there is demand for language-specific forums I hope the devs would host them here.
there is alredy a french and russian forums:

They seem to be unnused but yea. They would get used more if they were here.

I'm part of a lot of online forums where there are many ...

Here is a comparison of steel furnace layouts using the 90 degree inserters. The bottom one seems ideal. It is 17% smaller and uses fewer steel power lines than the "normal" middle layout.

If there is demand for language-specific forums I hope the devs would host them here.

I think you also need to add 0.5 to the distance to get the coordinate's Y value.

Yes, this slipped here, fixed for 0.9.3 :)
Can we fix it editing a lua file?
Yes. It's in data/base/prototypes/recipe/recipe.lua

type = "recipe",

How come he has such nice backtraces with names, while
all linux backtraces I've seen / made are only numbers?

EDIT: I guess that's a factorio-produced crash log instead of a segfault?
That's an OSX crash log. Unless they are building with fewer debugging symbols on linux you should be able to ...

Thanks, that did it! That's what I get for copying base recipes instead of high tech recipes

I've written two mods that add new recipes and a new technology for those recipes. The technology appears as expected, unresearched, with prerequisites, and allowing the recipes in question. But the recipes are available at the start of the game. How do I stop them from being available?

Just in case you're willing to change your mind... I think sum would make more sense, in terms of realistically representing the amount of materials/pipes that were invested in the creation of the pipe to ground. One pipe to ground costs 5 pipes (two cost 10), and two of them can span 10 tiles. If ...
