I wonder if it is possible with the new decider combinator to fully provide a stack filter inserter with one filtering item as well as the corresponding stack size, with 1 decider only. Consider you have a list of items to load into a train. 5 wall, 10 repair kits, 15 belts. You want to load exactly...

For German, the rule is correct. However, you left out an example that should probably be mentioned:

1 Tonne
but
1,0 Tonnen

One of the issues with maximum speed is that items are picked up faster than being delivered by the belt, especially if earlier inserters created gaps on the belt. In this case, later inserters have to change lane and pick up the rest of their items from the other lane. However, changing lanes this ...

I know it's not really a solution, but what I do isn't what you even mentioned: I disable biters at map generation. I play without them. That's more fun for me personally. I tried with biters vanilla settings, I tried with biters peaceful, I tried with biters reduced. All ended up the same: I avoide...

Why you get less than 2.4 GW: Heat production is 2.4 GW. You need 2400/10 = 240 heat exchangers. You actually built them, so that's ok. To output 10 MW, each heat exchanger produces 103/s steam. This is 24,720/s. You supply water with 20 offshore pumps with 20 * 1200/s = 24,000/s water. That's an un...

Your power plant is going from 2.4 GW to 2.3 GW probably because of the insufficient water or steam flow. During heating up, or before you actually switch on your load, your water/steam pipes and input/output buffers are filling up, because either the heat exchangers are not at max. output or there ...

You look quite prepared. I thought I was prepared, but then I saw that roll of toilet paper in your image and immediately knew what was missing.

So now every entity has an additional property that players need to learn about, but it only matters in one place. We don't know, if it only matters in one place. One place was presented, but there might be more. One way or the other, I don't feel weight is a useless addition. It's adding a genuine...

I have to say. Those clover leaf intersections taking advantage of the new bridges look really nice. Definitely! I tell you what, the first thing I will do after downloading the expansion will not be creating a new map. I will be creating a new sandbox map in god mode and map editor. Then I will cr...

Sounds like they twisted themselves in knots to avoid combinators. I get it, combinators are not just complex, they're also 'weird'. The latter could have been fixed, the former probably not. For people who want complexity the answer is obvious - SE. It's perfectly fine to design the game around th...

And if you can't stand biters altogether, you can disable them at map generation (or through map editor in a running map). There are a few settings about enemies that might ease them up. About fighting with the tank. If you have a personal roboport equipped, construction robots and repair packs in y...

The ALT-mode grinder icon seems a bit strange - it's looking as if 2 hands are holding an item. The 2 grinding wheels look like 2 hands. May be the coloring could change - more blue or violet perhaps and not that warm orange tint.

But again: heavy power switch usage will always be slow. There's minimal to almost zero advantage to using power switches over simply making more power production. The time and energy to wire up all the switches vs just making more production is a wash. Many thanks for that info, especially because...

The grabbing tentacles somehow look alive. Nice work. The whole platform.

I do actually use PickerDollies to get help with creating combinator setups. It's invaluable. I start by placing combinators distributed over some area with much space to see every connection. I move them around and rotate them so functionality is visible and the wires are as short as possible and d...

Don't forget biter expansion. If a migrating biter group stops at a rail track by chance, the spawning nests and worms will destroy the tracks at that place. No attacks, no aggro required. They don't attack the tracks at that place, the tracks are simply replaced by the nests and worms at spawning. ...

Thoughts, comments or feedback, feel free to leave me a message. Although Koub moved this to a somewhat post-only thread, I dare to reply and possibly start a discussion: @SKaterle, please try to use Factorio terminology, if you comment on game features and game items. You talk about technical game...

This directory doesn't exist on my Windows 11 system. I do have ....\steam\steamapps\<mysteamuserid>\427520\ but neither \ac\ nor \saves\ nor any *.zip saves within. Only a \remote\ directory with some configs (mirror of some files in %appdata%\factorio\...\*). My saves are in %appdata%\Factorio\sav...

You can post your save in https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=115772#p115772 to show it to others, someone might have a comment on the ups. "Interesting" saves are sometimes commented by the devs and possible reasons given. Low ups can have 2 completely different reasons: 1. slow h...

And i would add too that i don't want them to reveal the whole expànsion in FFF. Let us get some surprises when we actually sit down to play it.

You just need to stop reading the FFFs now and your're guaranteed to be surprised at release.
