Its not "normal" a CDN is normal used to give the user a ip near their location to improve speed and responsivness. This round robin is just used to spread the load across different servers, which can work better, or worser. It probably also doenst count on the current load of the servers (so this ...

(I dont get what they have done)


Nothing special, that's just normal DNS operation.
Each time your computer needs to look up an IP for dcdn.factorio.com it gets them in a random order and then picks the first one to connect to. (It would try the other ones in order if it failed to connect to ...

0.17.9 + 0.0.1 is not 0.18.0, it's 0.17.10. Same for 0.17.99->0.17.100, and onward forever.


The max value for each version is 65535,
So technically after 0.17.65535, we really have no choice but to make it 0.18.0 (Or maybe it would overflow back to 0.17.0)


from a just crytography ...

But I'd like if a distinction between "signal is zero" and "signal is not present" were added.
Most entities would continue to work as now
- Outputting a signal results in that signal being present
- Reading a signal that isn't present is treated as zero
For arithmetic (mainly the arithmetic ...

The ingame updater happens to do just that.
If you are using the steam version the ingame updater is probably disabled however as steam takes care of the updating and the devs might be limited in their options there

And.. If the value of a variable is zero, still show it. Loosing any sign of a variable just because its zero makes debugging circuit networks really tough!


The thing is...every value is zero, unless it's not. If you hover over a power pole, and it says there are 53 Electronic Circuits and ...

How do waypoints interact with the circuit network? Are train id and contents available on the tick the train passes through the waypoint?

First: that's dumb. At least have two or three passwords, distributed among accounts based on how much you care about what they're protecting.

Sensible advice, but laziness and/or ignorance usually wins.
Second: if this is something they implement, there might be some better way to do it ...

"Breaks" in the sense of detecing >4 when on full throughput for as long as the two splitted belts have not been emptied, so for about 2 seconds, after that the normal full belt throughput will again be split into 2* 1/2 full belt and detected as 2* 4 items on the belt


Those bits can't empty ...

There's a simple fix to prevent the bots being stuck in a loop:
Remember the last roboport the bot left/charged at, and whenever the bot needs to charge only allow roboports that are closer to the target than the last one.
Once the bot has reached it's target allow all roboports again.

Keeps the ...

A signal blocked by circuit condition outputs nothing.

Actually, the train following you is the one that can (and will) stop in time, even if you stop instantly.
The problem is trains crossing or joining your path, as these have a signal already reserved by them (yellow) turn red.
A solution could be to handle the manual train similar to an automatic ...

Aslo if the server is set to auto-pause when no-one is connected, then I agree it shouldn't un-pause until the first player to connect actually finishes downloading the map.

I would go one step further: Even if the server doesn't auto-pause, it should pause while the first (and only the first ...

I keep wondering what the red button at the top of some of those windows does, and why it needs be red. Reload?

Looks like "Reset to preset defaults" to me and since it removes your changes, red seems appropriate. Ideally the button should be disabled while you are at the defaults.
In the same ...

No, because there would need to be many more graphics made to accomodate this rotation.

Some entities already exist in all possible rotations, e.g. biters, players, cars, trains, ...
The main problems are buildings. But, due to the HR graphics update, most entities should already have proper 3D ...

I posted an error message for the mod Science Pack Dependencies stated below, however the issue seems to lie within your mod instead.

I'm pretty sure it's related to the bug mentioned at the end of last page which is already fixed by now. I couldn't get our mods to crash using 1.1.2 ...

Same issue here, game wants libssl/libcrypto 1.0.0, I have 1.0.2 and 1.1 installed. Tricking the linker into using them doesn't work due to missing symbols.
Debian oldstable still has version 1.0.0, but that's, well... old

I recommend linking against a less ancient version of libssl and libcrypto

But decreasing niceness (aka increasing the priority) usually requires root privileges.

This bothered me for a long time before I got used to the current system but I would prefer this too.

I'm thinking about something like this:

I chuckle at this whole discussion, because as a new player I find the entire tech tree (beginning at 3 layers down) to be so convoluted and confusing that probably only the most experienced players would even notice these issues. The UI for the tech tree needs work.
