Your department heads seem to know what they are doing though. I am astounded every time you get a risky development decision past your board of directors. But I guess the fight is worth it in the end!

Maybe go indie at some point?

I have to say, truer words have never been spoken Now, imagine how it will be discovering that whole new endgame in 0.12 for the first time. That's a new factory for me then, and it can't be not awesome

I do kinda agree with the OP that combat needs an overhaul. I think it's pretty skewed right now towards certain weapon/item combos, and the way that biters scale really push you towards being a piercing-shotgun/capsule spewing power-armor bastard. It would be nice if there was other ways to deal w...

[*]Car and tank movement should be better. Tank should no longer get stuck. Tank can now destroy objects by accelerating into them even when standing still (https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9046) It seems that cars now also do much more damage if you drive against players or buildi...

Here am I, realizing over the past few sessions on different factories and mod setups, how brilliant and demanding some of those numbers and ratios in the game seem to work together. When you get the basics and start building more advanced and efficient, there's a whole new level to master. It's eve...

I'm fighting some bitters using laser turrets. The game is crashing every time I repair a turret and press Q to unequip repair pack. It displays a message: Unexpected error occurred. You can help us to solve the problem by posting the contents of the log file on the Factorio forums. Here is a log f...

If I remember correctly, they plan to increase the price a bit at some point, possibly along with the steam release. If your friends wanna get it in any case, it would be smart to do it sooner than later. And I would be surprised if pre-steam customers don't get a Steam key also.

Thanks for the info Fish! Wasn't possible with one map we tried though, but we have to try again in 0.11.17 sometime.

That was true a few versions before, but they recently changed that.

And I even checked if I could find something in the resolved forum

Thanks kovarex!

https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=8906 Basically this, without the reason for not fixing it (I got an original Factorio) I started the 2nd campaign mission and got the same error as the guy in the thread above, right after opening the burner inserter and putting in some coal...

I think it's very possible that the campaigns get some more work at some point, though something official would interest me, too :) The first campaign seems to be designed at a much earlier point in development. Even some things in the UI function differently than in the second campaign or the main ...

Is it possible to play campaign missions in multiplayer? Maybe without the campaign goals? I'd like to play the train mission (the 4th / first of the second campaign) with a friend who just started playing. Does anybody know if that is possible? Thanks in advance

Umm, I got the same problem, with an original version though (but a few different versions and mods installed). It occurs when you start the second campaign level and simply follow the tutorial. Should happen when it tells you to open the burner inserter, or after you put coal in it and it starts wo...

Before I start, a quick point. You've mentioned 0.11.17 quite a few times, talking as if it has been released. There is no 0.11.17 in the releases section of this forum. And if you read the newest blog entry in an observing manner, you'll get that the whole post is about why the release of 0.11.17 ...

I am fine with rescuing some settlers as part of the space ship mission, but I hope they haven't completely abandoned the idea of using the ship for more tasks. A galactic market was mentioned at some point, for example. If the endgame is done right, there is some kind of "hard target" (bu...

Yeah like talking them about your brand new factory that can produce almost 1 Rocket defense per 3 hours, and how you're planning to improve your main bus system to double throughput of copper, because your blue circuits department sucks copper hungry green circuits like no one :mrgreen: We are wor...

End of February is possible. Sounds great :) One question - will the Steam sales add to the counter on the website? Because I would be very interested in how Steam affects the sales. Just to clarify, I am pretty sure that "end of February" is a possible time frame for a stable 0.11 versio...

Well, give the controls a chance, most key bindings are chosen with some thought. It's your decision though
My first impressions? Hmmm... Something like "why haven't I discovered this earlier?!?"

Maybe this sticky could be removed, the forum skin isn't what I would call "new" anymore, and this thread therefore obsolete
