Ok, I found what I was searching for. There is a third mod with a just too long name that is more involved than the 2 other. Now, I'm surprised there is no simple vanilla setting to make the night lighter or darker, with a slider.

Is there a vanilla setting so that the night is a bit more relevant? In vanilla, the night seems like a "light dusk". I tried the 2 mods about a darker night, but they are borderline 'perpetual night!'. First the night is pitch black, which would be bearable if depending of some semi-rando...

That's a mod request for any kind soul :P I would like to play a game, where hand crafting is only used when in a deadlock, like I miscalculated something and I need to craft a few things ... But the rest of the time, I would like to not feel somehow under any obligation to hand craft, because it is...

From time to time on the radar map I get a red dot, I never correlated it with anything special. Any clue?

Thanks a lot guys, much appreciated. I now get a clearer picture of the 'situation'. I'm playing a half-death world I guess, as I reduced to 40 evolution over time. But to my defense ;) , I left the rest intact, and doubled base-size. Also, mineral setting are on ultra-low, so I'll need to cross vas...

Hey, I would like to understand better the basic dynamic of population generation for the autochtone population on the planet. Literally, biters are generated from thin (polluted) air, right? As each as a cost in pollution. But they are also definitively generated without pollution, so how it works,...

Should it not be considered a bug, a long standing one even, as I remember having the same problem back in 2018. I believe everybody got it at some point, you crash your vehicle against the coast, and it can't move at all, in any direction. That's fairly easy to 'achieve', so I'm surprised it was no...

I'm adverse to using mods, thanks!

What is player experience with https://mods.factorio.com/mod/WaterAsAResource/discussion It seems the internal forum is a bit ... dead. I would like to know if it runs smoothly and won't bork my game. Is there any mod doing that? That's strange that finite water appeals to no one, almost. Somehow I ...

Ok thanks guys for the explanations!

Another one, cosmetic. Even when you remove rocks, remains some rock outcrops, that don't block movement and still show when you place paved road. How can you remove them entirely?

They should be fairly obvious on the map.

Because you play with a setting with lot of minerals. I play in a mineral-starved world, where the deposits are far and few.

@Silari: Thanks. Not sure there is a toggle on this though, I don't want to have permanent labels.

Is there a mean to get the list of all deposits discovered on the map, or do we hunt for them with the radar map?

Thanks, it should help! And 600.000 downloads, that's a success...

I know how to give a stack, half a stack and 1. I would like to give ... 10 (or 5, 15, 20) ?

put them in the blueprint library to access them in different maps/games of the same installation.

Or you can export/import them via blueprint string

I don't find this blueprint library, sorry.

Is there an easy, automated way?

Great, thanks!

Somehow I managed to start a game with my player color not pleasant to me. Is there a mean to change it in game?

Great!

I can't find a mod that I know exists, if someone can give me its name, that would be appreciated. It shows a grid on the map even when not pausing (and there is a toggle to remove it)

Thanks guys. After browsing 30 pages or so of mods, can't find it!
