What is the proper way to do this in .16, particularly when using a mod that has multiple Locomotive types (and cargo for that matter)? I have the same problem - whenever a train comes that has "stuff" - some unloaders do ONE cycle of unloading it. This is particularly bad because it most...

Wiring it up in the way that people advise means that if, for instance, there is something in a wagon you don't want to be there, the filter gets set to "what's in the wagon" and basically makes itself entirely redundant. It works this way in the demo save file as well as in the station b...

Failed to load mods....


__Rampant__/dataa-updates.loa:4:__Rampant__/libs/Constants.lua:198 attempt to index field 'NE_Difficulty' (a nil value)

In my last game, the first one where I seriously got into trains, I made a set of blueprints with two rails and large electric poles in between them. So that way I can do the rails and more or less power takes care of itself. Plus high power lines along railroad tracks are a common sight IRL, so it...

The given sprite rectangle.... Screenshot attached.

Seems 16.17 got a little more snippy in some aspect.

One of the things I found most irritating about biters in the past was trying to expand later in the game and having these huge biter nests to fight through. While nukes solved the problem to an extent, I felt they were just a bit too powerful. Artilery is the right balance, and I absolutely love i...

Agreed. I particularly hate that I can not "concrete" over them.

Forever stuck in an unprofessional broken looking factory

0.16?

Well, I can not argue about steel and copper, but on half the maps I generate I have HUGH oil fields on the preview. Not talking of 10 dots - 50 or so. Enough to last the game. Or two. Or ten. And quite often I have 2-3 monster patches like that.

Ok, I have a theory as to what's happening but we won't know until 0.16.3 is out where it has better logging and someone has this issue again in it. I think the bitmap conversion is failing silently and it crashes on this line later trying to memcpy from a nullptr which is undefined behavior and it...

That is the one I found Here you go

Wait for the AI rework project to kick in on .16 - may well wish you did not ahve that wish

Try<ing now....

Worked 3 times out of 3 just starting the game

Without your config it is "seemingly random" in that it worked one time out of a dozen attempts or so

Factorio is more subtle than that, inserters don't just have a pick up speed, they have a rotation and elongation speeds so the order, placements and how clumped the items is on the belt will have an effect on the speed of the inserters. Then everything also have to be perfectly deterministic so si...

Would it not be nice then to organize entities into separate pools? * One pool per chunk * Separate pools for large multi chunk elements, such as electric networks, trains That way chunks could align with pages. Per chunk processing would then be able to take advantage of more locality, at least dow...

Can we expect an early build this year? Possibly mid December, as my birthday gift?

Not asking for a date, just an indication on how you guys think you progress and when you plan to drop the next release.
