Re: Advanced Nuclear fuel reprocessing
It should be possible to implement this as a mod, as the recipes themselves are pretty simple and the only real addition is plutonium as a pure intermediate item. Based on a search for "enrichment", this actually seems to be a convenient hole in the market if you want to capitalise on it. ...

Re: [0.16.51] Refinery can't be loaded with iserters
This is likely related to the problem I had with furnace-type assemblers outputting a fluid backing up and sending the inserter to sleep, but not waking it back up.

[Suggestion] Image improvements
1. An option to mark an image as hidden Would be useful for images intended to be used as the preview in lists, as well as for #3 below. 2. An option to mark an image as pixel-perfect (or non-scaling) Would make smaller images look far better, as the scaling can often completely ruin an image. 3. So...

Re: Productivity modules boundaries
If I'm not mistaken, the current productivity limitations are that you can use them on anything in intermediates except barrels and enrichment, the latter of which is fixed for 0.17 as it was a catalyst issue.

Smaller and more informative achievement pins
Right now the pins are a massive icon, sometimes with a progress bar, and that's it.
It'd be a lot nicer if the pins had the name, description, and a smaller icon.
Here's a quick mock-up of my idea:

Re: Removing fluid temperature - thoughts?
How will this affect steam engines and turbines? Currently turbines only draw double the steam but produce far more power due to the vastly increased temperature, and engines attempting to use that 500C steam will be inefficient. My assumption is that the output rate of exchangers and input rate of ...

[0.16.51] Science lab buffers do not respect the speed of the lab
https://i.imgur.com/mzSTTl7.png The left lab has +250% speed, the right lab has +2000% speed. Both labs are being fed by a stack size 1 inserter. The labs are off due to not having all packs for the tech picked. Both labs stop being fed when there are 2 packs. In most cases this is fine, but it can...

Re: [Rseding91] [15.35] [Mods] Inserter stops feeding furnace-type assembler
Sorry for the large delay, forgot about the issue. Relevant mod: https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Hexicube/Hexi_Inline_Ore_Processing (tested with v0.5.1 in 0.16.51) Save is attached. In the top example, I added the inserter before attaching the acid feed, and it initially operated fine. If it happens...

Re: [FFF 260] Pipe junctions should merge, for reduced calculations
you say it makes sense, and that it is logical, but then you have to think about... what constitutes a junction merge? 1 pipe section between 2 junctions? Those Underground junctions would count as 2 pipes between them, so do you limit it to 2 pipes between junctions to merge them? Maximum 2 non-ju...

[FFF 260] Pipe junctions should merge, for reduced calculations
In the most recent FFF the new proposed system is effectively turning the entire pipe network into single pipe segments connected with junctions. This is an improvement in theory, but it mentions junctions would be a little more CPU intensive...and then it shows the last image: https://eu1.factorio....

[0.16.51] Splitter has noticeable wobble at exactly 1x zoom
I assume this only happens with high graphics (double res), and is additionally only there in specific orientations. The problem is a lot harder to see at other zoom levels, except for 0.5x where it is exacerbated. I can see it in fast splitters facing right and down, but not left and up. When looki...

I have a 350MB save where I explored 125k tiles to the right, and it takes a long time to load/save as expected. I've decided to offer it as an optimisation target, to see if e...

In light of the announced 0.17 science pack tech nodes (for clarity to new players), I have a proposal to go with it for 0.17: - Production and high-tech packs are made cheaper - Techs that currently require prod/ht packs become more expensive to compensate; alternatively, make blue packs more expen...

Re: s3tc compressing atlases takes up to half a minute
We might also make an option to use lower-res sprites for shadows. And last but not least lot of shadow sprites could be cropped more because they contain also parts that is always occluded by machine that is casting the shadow. Honestly, for shadows, you could probably get away with something like...

When adding drain to accumulators via a mod, it is added to the accumulator but does not always drain power. It appears to only drain power when not connected to a network.
