The exploit is that you can stand northwest of a spawner while shooting it, and be guaranteed to be shooting the biter that spawns and comes at you every time. Or southeast and be sure the biter will have to run around the spawner, giving you more of a head start. And you always know which spawners ...

Biters always spawn at the northwest corner of the spawner. This feels too predictable and exploitable. It would be nice if they would spawn randomly around the edge of the spawner.

I want burner inserters to take fuel from the assembler/chest/inserter/etc in front of them instead of just the one behind them. I think this feature existed in one of the burner leech mods a few years ago, but I can't find this functionality or an option to enable it in https://mods.factorio.com/mo...

Another vote for not not a bug. Search+Sort is mostly useless for my use cases.

Especially weird that sorting by name doesn't work.

Suggestion: When searching, set the sort criterion to null and do the current behavior, but go back to sorting if the user clicks a column header.

This doesn't just apply to curved rails. It seems to apply any time an inserter could have two targets. I wouldn't mind if it was consistently prioritized, but it being dependent on build order doesn't seem reasonable. 0eNqlk9FugzAMRf/Fz8lUKLQdvzJNKAWPRQsJSpxuVcW/z4GpqzbaaprEQ4jte+yb5AR7E3Hw2hJUJ9CN...

I made a small mod with a list of dependencies on all the QoL mods I like to play with. However, it seems that the ability to automatically install a dependency list is only available when installing a mod from the portal. I'd like to see a way to do this for locally installed mods as well. Perhaps ...

Simpler request first... In the mod portal UI I'd like to see the dependency list for a mod, and be able to click through to those other mods. Actual request that prompted this post... I'd like to see all the mods that depend on the one I'm interested in. My use case for this, at this moment, is &qu...

Coming here from my duplicate report and adding another voice in opposition to build order dependent behavior here.

For anyone who comes here later looking for this feature, here's a mod with some functionality you might be able to use:

1. Build a medium power pole (A) 2. Build another (B) to the right of it. A's sprite changes to account for the newly connected wire direction, good. 3. Deconstruct B. A's sprite changes back to the original, good. 4. Undo the deconstruction of B. A's sprite should change as in step 2 but does not, ...

Set a train station to send train count on signal C, and enable on C<2. The station will run just fine, until you connect a second color of wire to it. Doesn't matter where the wires go or what else they do. As soon as the station outputs C=1 on both wires it will receive C=1+1 and disable itself. T...

they both have the same size, but a wildly different footprint. If we include a size based score, all the square shaped junctions would rank at the top, even though the second shape can often be more "space efficient" as it only uses low value space along the straights. Bounding rectangle...

I would like to be able to modify the collision boxes for the curved rail (or a custom third rail type, actually). Could they be exposed in the data rather than the dummy 4x4 box there now? { type = "curved-rail", name = "curved-rail", collision_box = {{-2, -2}, {2, 2}}, -- has c...

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/ThickerLines is a mod that makes the wire sprites thicker/wider/bulkier so they are more visible. It works great, except for vertical wires which stubbornly remain 1 pixel wide. Example: Screenshot_2022-02-09_17-51-40.png Suggested fix: For wires closer to vertical than...

Trains in vanilla Factorio are quite useful, especially since the train limit feature was introduced. There are, however, some areas in which they fall short. Dealing with many trains can be tedious in the default UI. Sometimes you want or need smarter control over train behavior, especially when pl...

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/BetterTrainBehavior
seem to do most of what I originally requested here, with every train skipping stations whose conditions are already met.

You, sir, are a terrible tease.
