The Schwerer Gustav (Heavy Gustav). The fully assembled gun weighed nearly 1,350 tonnes ~1,224,700kg and could fire shells weighing 7t ~6,985kg a range of 47 km (29 miles). Schwerer Gustav was the largest calibre rifled weapon ever used in combat and, in terms of overall weight, the heaviest mobile ...

I am SO happy about the amount of awesome space stuff happening recently, what with spacex, nasa, esa, India, China, Russia, jaxa... Who else?

The James Webb Space Telescope.. Go Technology + Science!!!

Oddly enough, that's how very early Factorio was, as far as the biters go anyway. They'd attack en masse when you tried to launch a rocket, survival being the aim.

Robot Battery Research. Yes please x 1000. I've never understood why the players personal equipment seems so limited. What's inherently wrong in giving players higher capacity batteries / fusion reactors / personal robo's? So we could rock up to an outpost, smelting array or whatever and get stuff d...

I really enjoy reading about the processes involved in improving the game. Awesome changes as always Never stop looking for that little extra % improvement!

And something about what's on the horizon next week.. can't wait!

Just spotted "Dyson Sphere Program" which was apparently revealed at Tokyo Games Show. Basically "3D factorio in space". Looks intriguing. Early access is announced for 2021, so it's gonna be quite a while until 1.0 i guess. Gameplay Trailer (probably a re-upload?) Steam Early r...

RIP warehouse jobs I gu...

Looks intriguing, added to the wish list, will see how the reviews look!

Does kebab on conveyor belt count?



Of course that's a thing.

If UPS is an issue you may as well switch off the pollution especially as you've already removed the biters, it serves no purpose now!

There's also the stable branch, which is rarely updated. You also have a choice not to update to the latest experimental version.

Have a look at the griefer database, don't think the OP has been updated in a while, but there's newer lists in the thread.

It is not better for various reasons. First of all, you don't want to pollute the gui of every single entity by this, because if you wanted to be consistent it would have to be done this way everywhere. Which means, also in containers for example etc. It would give the wrong impression to the new u...

Also at least using the huge filler space for something useful would've been nice. Like getting rid of the tiny extra windows for circuits.

So much better, useful and gets rid of the dead space.

If it happens again try updating the steelseries software.

Is this a known issue? Does their software often cause this? I'm kinda really curious to know how you could look at the OP and think steelseries!

I tried this randomly reasoning why wouldn't it work considering the many ways this functionality is used in the game?

I think this would be a great QoL improvement - speeding things up nicely - especially if you use a long train stop naming convention.

Blue_thunder, you can't they removed that GUI button in a recent update. I do hope they reimplement it with additional functionality to show rockets / min or hour however.

I whole heartedly agree! When you have 4 bars shown it covers a fair chunk of the screen - the important central bit. Attacking biters in a north south direction means your view is more limited, they also seem to get in the way when I'm trying to align the bottom of a big blueprint. 1.png For me it'...

Why was the Rocket silo stats GUI removed? How do we now see how many satellites we've launched? I don't understand why it was seemingly randomly removed. I would like to ask this too. For me (and many others I'd bet) Factorio starts after you launch that first rocket - forever chasing MORE™ . Incr...

Thank you Therax, would it help if I uploaded the complete desync zip or something?
