[...] 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 than...

"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 em...

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 bot...

If a signal set red only by circuit signal really outputs a red signal back onto the circuit network, I would suggest this is changed as that's really not a useful behaviour.

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 tr...

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) play...

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...

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 mod...

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

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.

+1 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: http://i.imgur.com/2aaaf9M.png I think this is the best option. Except that the numbers on the left (consumption) aren't really necessary as they'll alway...

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. Fear not! After adding all thos...

I just made a mod to add these dependencies. For a vanilla game it adds 66 new dependencies advanced-electronics (blue) to 2 progress techs: advanced-oil-processing, electric-energy-distribution-2 11 bonus only techs: braking-force-1, bullet-damage-5, bullet-speed-5, flamethrower-damage-3, grenade-d...

They use the A* algorithm which is normally algoritmically fast, but only gives approximate optimal results, since pathfinding is NP hard. And solving NP hard problems exact can take exponential time. Well, while A* being in NP is technically correct, A* is actually in P. The worst case, exploring ...

A* (and Dijkstra) are designed in a way that the very first solution found is the best. Correct; but this doesn't apply to the bidirectional variants of either algorithm. The last scanned node of the first complete path needn't be on a global optimal path at all. Instead, once those path trees have...

In the next example, the first solution found is not optimal, as the curves can be straightened, so extra steps of the algorithm is needed to find a better solution. I take it the heuristic function is not quite admissible (i.e., the cost-to-goal estimate can sometimes be slightly higher than the a...
