Holy manoly. That is just great. Thanks for the hint!

Factorio crashed hard with the error message, that the graphics card was removed physically from the system. Now, I swear I did not remove the graphics card. ;-) And all other applications kept running just fine, as was win10. I did not change anything on my PC or OS in the last 2 months. I didn't e...

It's also a feature in 1.1.5 where you can mark it on the map. Can you explain, what you mean by that? Sorry for my brief cryptic comment... In the same way you can turn pollution on an off (using the icons under the mini-map) you can also enable "Show assembler recipe" (or similar) in th...

Part of your multi-suggestion is this, if I understood correctly:

viewtopic.php?t=56890

Edit: Oh, ssilk already made an exhausting list of already made suggestions. Also noticing, that ssilk made a similar suggestion like mine in 2016 2017 already.

To find a solution.

+1 for a way for a more forceful BP placement maybe CTRL+click? My usecase is to change production plants with advancing technology. Imagine a mall. You could just iteratively "force" a new BP on the same location and entities would get updated, upgraded, wire connections set, etc. . for t...

On a meta level, the problem, you are trying to solve, is, that you have two points A and B, information in point B and want to transmit that info without wire or mods. Eg train stations A and B and the information in B is "I need 1000 iron plates". An immediate idea would be to define a c...

Confirmed in 1.1.5 . I have a side question: Where do all these UGPs come from? I also have this long list of UGPs when clicking on "upgrade BPB". I never made them though and searching my Library, I can not find any other than the 5 I made myself. So, are all these built into vanilla? I r...

You are a wizard my friend.

TL;DR I am suggesting to enable the old features of the map tag dialog, which were opening by RMB on the location on the map directly and creation without icon or text, additionally to the new ones. What ? - Enable opening and location setting by RMB on the map. - Enable the creation of a tag witho...

although I would support a more diplomatic tone

Well, maybe the outside world perceives my ranting comments not as funny as I do. Changed to obvious satire.

Oh that is cool. Thx

TL;DR I want the confirm button of the map tag dialog removed and the key combination LCTRL+LSHIFT+LALT+F9+KeypadENTER introduced instead. Why ? The process of placing a tag was too fast and too simple up until now. And you fixed that. Instead of simply clicking RMB on the map and creating a dot wi...

+1 Repeatedly I wonder 'Where is that 'tron I called back to main base earlier?' Just to find it stuck somewhere on water. Of course, once I know, that the path to a certain destination has water in the way, I set move orders accordingly. But there are unlimited possibilities for a "first time&...

Pipette key or any other control, I think this is would be a great addition to vanilla. One might counter argue, that one remote is enough to control them all ( ;) ). But there are cases where dedicated remotes are pretty handy. Have you ever tried to click a fast moving 'tron with a remote? It is a...

Is there currently a way to fast find a spidertron that is connected to a remote? I have the problem that I am playing on a huge map and sometimes I simply forget where the spidertrons are. Then I have to search. Oh, well, if I have a connected remote, I can issue a move command and see where the li...

I just wanted to write a request that is similar to this one. But in my case, I just want remote access to spideys logistics requests tab. Trunk and equipment grid should be inaccessible like the fuel tab in trains, when remotely accessing them. My reasoning is, that the requests tab is just informa...

Ok, tested it with a freshly started game in 1.1.1 . It still is buggy. But I noticed another detail and was also able to reproduce the case where the belt equipment can not be picked up from the trash after building things. 1. The detail I noticed is, that in the case of manually inserting the rock...
