I got situation like this: http://imgur.com/a/Wd83G I have power crisis, yet some burner inserters won't take anything from the belt to fuel themselves and thus can't fuel furnaces. It's standard 10/14/1 setup for each line, so no water shortage or anything, it worked fine for majority of this game ...

After playing almost 500 hours, I must say that terrain changes seem to be the only thing still making me interested in this game (aside from heavily modded scenarios). Infinite map was one of the first things that made me so impressed, manufacturing part is something I've enountered more or less al...

For past few days I'm having weird issues with Factorio (and only it). Sometimes when I press any key or mouse button it doesn't work immediately - it may take even few seconds for game to realise I did something. There are no lags, just these input delays, like playing on server with high ping (but...

If you went 'the opposite way', you would end up exactly like what you mentioned - mods doing everything automatically.

I'm preparing to build my first serious main-bus-style factory, but after few small attempts I've noticed one thing - it seems you actually need very little copper-plates themselves, what you really need is circuits. Relatively few products (other than circuits) need copper plates. Which is kinda we...

Why not make a single type belt and make its speed increase autamatically when you researching their speed increase? See how inserters and bots are always the same, you just research their greater speed and/or capacity. Just streamline all of it - make EVERYTHING have just a single basic build-item,...

We send rocket to the space, but can't plant some trees. This is weird.

I understand that it turns belt off in order to balance things? If so, balancing will come at cost of lesser total throughtput of belts due to them being periodically off?

Tried to do it slowly without a car as in movie, first base was indeed much easier and eating fishes helped a lot, but at the second I only managed to kill first few nests and then still get swarmed the moment I get into a range of shooting anything. On movies people seem to get barely few small bit...

I've read the FAQ about this and still got the same problem as a lot of people - it seems too hard. I don't want to go through this with any "cheaty" way, so it would be cool if someone could answer me few questions how to go through it without using console commands, turret creep or rushi...

Is it possible to DEgenerate part of the map somehow? To make parts of it act exactly as never discovered and therefore never included in autosaves and so on? And if it was possible, will that part of map generate the same way if discovered later? I accidentaly put wrong numbers in console scan comm...
