Re: UI improvement: "smart" pipe-to-ground
Nooooo. If I mix two fluids together it sometimes destroys one fluid and puts the wrong fluid in the wrong pipes. Then I have to rip up all the pipes and relay them. This is a huge pain in the neck. When I'm laying pipes I want the process to be totally predictable, and the computer shouldn't guess ...

Re: [0.14.17] Multiplayer browser filter for version number
I have the same problem as the OP. I run Ubuntu Linux version 16.04. Can this be classified as a bug and moved to the appropriate forum?

Re: Remove the "Built by" field in single player
What about if you have loaded a map from somebody else, meaning that you did not build everything? If you're playing single-player I don't see why this information needs to be displayed on screen. It could still be stored internally. I thought the original purpose for the "built by" tag w...

Re: Numerical slide intervals 90-100-200 and 900-1000-2000
I think there was a suggestion (related to the circuit network) to display the five most recently used values in addition to the slider. I did a quick search but couldn't find it. If I remember correctly Siggboy likes to use 4294967296 (or was it 2147483648?) Each player is going to have their own &...

Re: Prioritize player requests along with other requests
The player acts like any normal requester chest in the logistics network - there's no special logic involved - it's literally the same code that fulfills normal requester chests that fulfills the player requester chests. I'm surprised to hear it works this way. Making it work otherwise would waste ...

Re: Transporting Power in Bateries
You can already store power in accumulators near each outpost. If you want to be fancy you can put each outpost on its own electric network, as described in this post: https://wiki.factorio.com/Accumulator#Isolation_of_Power_Networks You can also use the circuit network with a power switch to ensure...

Re: Hand crafting should pause if your inventory is full
The development team decides what they're going to work on and what is a priority, what is expected behavior and what is not. The forum is an opportunity for us to influence the developers but it's not a democracy. In general I'm very pleased with the prioritization -- after 0.14 was released there ...

Re: Combining, Splitting, and Balancing Large Numbers of Belts
I like the game's design as it stands. If you're obsessive and have a lot of time on your hands you can figure out how to do this with nothing but splitters and underground belts. If you're like me you can look it up online and try to memorize it. Or you can take the newbie approach and do a simple ...

Re: Friday Facts #162 - Theme Art Again
Great change! It always seemed strange that genocide was mandatory in order to progress and finish the game, that machines would literally run on dead biter babies I agree that killing biters shouldn't be a primary goal. (It doesn't bother me if alien artifacts have some optional benefit, nor does ...

Re: Friday Facts #160 - Playtesting
Merging items with different health: Please do not. Could you instead add a mechanic to allow pocket repairs? Maybe it's a module in the armor, maybe it's a research that just enables the capability, but rather than potentially losing items because of picking them up unfixed, allow them to be fixed...

Re: Multiple roboports hooked up to circuit network item count
Hi thatguy321. First of all, I think the circuit network is the hardest part of the game to understand. So don't worry if you don't get it right away. A chest with 50 iron plates is going to add 50 to whatever the value is for "iron plates." If you have two chests and each chest has 50 iro...

Will the mod be updated for 14.0?
I recently started another playthrough with HardCrafting and I'm stuck playing Factorio 0.13.19.

This is great! I can finally play multiplayer!! My computer isn't that fast, my network connection is ok but not great, and I tried multiplayer months ago but I was the cause of too many desyncs so I gave up. On Saturday I had an epic multiplayer session. I played for hours and no desyncs! (We did h...

Re: Train Exit Side
The simplest exit strategy would be - exit where the mouse pointer is. No, that's a bad idea because it's not at all intuitive. It should either be always on the same side or there should be some simple logic that determines which side. (For example: always exit left unless it would put the charact...
