I got 0.10.4, and crash log from OS X.

this also happens in 0.10.2, but not in 0.10.1.

I have uploaded a video reproducing this problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqDvOhgbSks&feature=youtu.be > Does it happen during the startup (when the progress bar is running) or after the progress bar is finished?

On OSX, game soon shows up a small error dialog reporting "basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid" in a small dialog with an "OK" button, after starting the game program. Pressing "OK" then game program finishes, and game window doesn't show up. Version: MacOS factor...

Could we see whole railway image?
I thought you have to put mining site at far places..

very good idea!

Gather pollution with some air-conditioning tower,
and move condensed pollutions in to the middle of remote woods.
The pollution can be moved via pipe/barrels/solid objects.

This will help your base clean and also adjust/control enemy activities .

How about a power switching by green and red cables?
New item: power switch that can be attached to an electricitiy pole, and it can turn on and off the power.
You can turn the switch by hand and also by green/red cable.

It would be fun if we have boats and water flow in rivers and modify terrain and build canals..

Oops, I forgot that pollution goes down the river..

I used map editor and put nearly infinite copper and iron and oil , and no enemies, But don't rocket defenses require level 3 modules, which require alien artifacts? over 10M alien artifacts is also put in chests.. I know my case is really special, but it's very fun for me to optimize the factory i...

My current end-game objective is also "how many rocket defence could be made per hour keeping 60fps?" . I think overproducing/maxproducing is a very good self-made objectives in this game. How many biter bases can be destroyed per hour keeping 60fps? I used map editor and put nearly infin...

My current end-game objective is also "how many rocket defence could be made per hour keeping 60fps?" .
I think overproducing/maxproducing is a very good self-made objectives in this game.

I thought the inserter option can save space and our time than smart inserters and cables or splitter cascade,
but I've never got an idea to use fast belt. It's a great idea!!

This inserter picks items only when the belt is stucked.
This could be done with chests: pick items up only when the chest is full.

By this we can set up an over-flow filter on a belt or chests.

> In consequence that means, that the construction bots would also repair items in you inventory.
Sounds great!!

I think it is very natural for construction bots to repair damaged items in chests.

I think it could be very useful for repairing walls, laser tullets and vehicles.

Is this already proposed? I feel it difficult to search old proposals here..

> Ever tried building railroad when you are in the train? For long straight distances this is real fun!
Yes, I know it is fun! But after 0.9.0, the woods are frequent and dense, so I have to put curved rails more often.
Signals and electricity supply and time scheduling is also taking time...

currently it takes to much time to build railway in a long distance, because the player character movement is too slow. Yes we can use blueprint to build stations, but it's necessary to build most part of railway by hand. it takes about one hour to build rail route in distance at 1000~2000 blocks. I...

I'd like to play factorio with minimum fight by-hand and maximum fight by robots or automated missile defence.
Automation and optimization of extermination of enemies could be a point of this game.
