French sociologist Roger Caillois, in his book Les jeux et les hommes (Games and Men),[7] defined a game as an activity that must have the following characteristics: fun: the activity is chosen for its light-hearted character separate: it is circumscribed in time and place uncertain: the outcome of...

You can also just join same random multiplayer games to get savefiles.

I've encountered 2 problems with dangOreus.

When I place an electric mining drill on a place that also has uranium ore, the drill stops mining because I've just started and obvious don't have sulfuric acid yet.

On the map chuncks are getting 'unscanned' so that I get holes in the map screen.

Evil!
Not even belts and powerpoles can be placed on the ores.

This is strange!
I have to think about this to really understand what's happening here.
It's something about the sorting you say. Interesting.

Very nice tool, but there's something I don't understand while testing the 4x4 balancer. 0eNqdluuOwiAQhd9lfuMGhl60r2I2Gy/EkFTaAN1oTN99qTVZo2O184vQlo+TM3MoF9jWnWm9dRGqC9hd4wJU6wsEe3CbengWz62BCmw0RxDgNsdhZk6tNyEsot+40DY+LramjtALsG5vTlCpXnwMCW1tYzT+bjn23wKMizZaMwq6Ts4/rjtu05eVeidFQNuEtLxxw/4JuUAB5zRk/S...

(It's around pixel location 1256, 1483 in "Satellite Shot.jpg".)

My guess is it's multiple screenshots glued together, so the rockets launched icon.

What happens if for example the path north to east is not available for whatever reason? Will this test just count how many trains throughput is available in all other directions?

Now that I see that number I doubt this little test is very usefull :P So if we had 2-4 trains running back to back (no signals) we could theoretically get a throughput of (60/0.084535)/6 = 118.3 trains per minute for each input lane? As the current tester can do about 24 trains per minute we're re...

Finding the throughput of intersections is great, but... There's a limit for one track systems. Do we know what the limit is for a single lane of traffic for a 2-4 train? Once we get to 2 lanes and more, what designs work best, and what's the throughput lane. 3 lanes? 4? Is there a soft cap to the ...

From every other menu you go back when pressing escape key.
It used to do also for the mods menu, but some versions ago it stopped working and I have to mouse click on back.
Not a very important bug, but when I like using the keyboard more than my mouse.

It looks like a bug. When you adjust the percentage for a recipe it only updates the products and ingredients when it's a recipe to produce ingredients for another recipe in the production line. I found a little work around to calculate what you need. - From the production line, add production block...

Oh god, please post the string for this! +1 It's not really hard to build it yourself :P The belt going round should be red to reach all science labs. The 'input'belt-piece has enable/disable on science pack = 0, and the belt pieces after that are 2 that are read belt contents hold. The blueprintst...

Just a random idea I haven't tried yet, you can use the pulse signal from the train counter to control inserters that will build a train in an assembling machine. That way you can use the production screen for graphs.

Thank you for the first 0.15 version. One thing I noticed is replicating uranium ore takes 46.6 seconds, while mining takes 3.8 seconds. Replicating iron/copper ore takes 2.5 seconds, while mining takes 1.9 seconds. Is replicating uranium ore on purpose that expensive? Another thing is fluids, they'...

Is there anything you can do to make your mod be able to handle recursive recipes? I noticed that some of my smelting and other recipes are not really working well with helmod when they are "looping". Do you want something to check your recipes so you can balance them or do you really wan...

I don't agree. If you need that big chests for buffers you're doing something wrong imho.

Is the save game with the test setup downloadable somewhere?

I've checked your design, it seems to work pretty well. Some pipe are a little over their max theoretical length, but probably others compensate for that. The temperature for the reactors seems to get stable at 700C what means no energy gets lost. For the water I've made this, Water.png One pump can...

Is the code in something like github so I can help you beta test it?
