If you want people to not refund the game within 30 minutes because of boredom and confusion, why not start them out with a tiny well-built base? Have some missing things like a row of 3 missing belt pieces, a few missing electricity poles and a few missing inserters. That way, they see how Factori...

So Nuclear is useless as before? Thanks devs! *half-joking*

I had to roll back some sprite changes i've been working on, they aren't ready yet. Some cool animated buildings YuokiTani

Will we soon see the new sprites?! YAY!

https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-241 I have a solution for part of the list. Fist . Have there be the space ship wrecks you landed in strewn close to you on the map. Based on pre-start settings you can set a variety of resources to be present in the wrecks. These ship derelicts can be entered...

Just don't manage to lose important things and hardware while moving to the new office and be careful.

What if you could modify WHERE exactly a train would stop at a Train Stop? One wagon after it or two wagons before it or something else?

Did you know that in Real Life later steam locomotives and modern engines can drive in reverse as fast as forwards (minus aerodynamic drag)? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walschaerts_valve_gear https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversing_gear This would allow Two-Headed trains be as fast as One-Headed t...

The choice to go a darker gray is what really draws me to yours, since items stand out a lot more than their vanilla counterpart. Belts are now less of an eyesore and I can see items more clearly, so thank you for that. My pleasure. Something is very wonky. My Angel/Bob game Violet and Green belts ...

Also, allow Belt Loaders for the game.

Something is very wonky. My Angel/Bob game Violet and Green belts do not fit the color scheme of the corresponding Beltbox. Green to Violet. Violet to Green. What is going on?

Will you please also consider adding a bit more lane management in the game? Splitting two lanes of 1 belt onto two belts with splitter options (instead of slow inserters), and maybe a way to swap two lanes of 1 belt. they have given us the tools. ;) underground.exploit.png swap.png Nope. They didn...

Would it be feasible to make the fission reactor the same size (4x4) as the fusion reactor? it would make the fusion reactor clearly more powerful, and a drop-in replacement for the fission reactor without needing to re-arrange your equipment grid. Another question is if it would be feasible to mak...

"Refined Concrete" makes normal "Concrete" obsolete inside the factory. You may as well as remove "Concrete" and leave only "Refined Concrete" because everyone will be going for "Refined Concrete" anyway." By this logic, the devs should remove ...

The Portable Fission Reactor (PFissR) is more powerful than the vanilla Portable Fusion Reactor (PFussR): The PFissR has 3×3 (9) slots and 500 kW: 500 ÷ 9 = 55.55555 kW per slot. The PFussR has 4×4 (16) slots and 750 kW: 750 ÷ 16 = 46.875 Kw per slot. PFissR is so space and power efficient as to co...

The issue is not bots. The issue is that people do not want the SIZE of their FACTORIES getting a hit by a Nerf Bat. In other words: You can nerf bots all you want...but you must preserve the levels of ease of planning, building, managing and upgrading a factory ...at the same level the game current...

Did you update the mod? When? No, I have not updated it since the 0.16 fixes. You provided me with calculations to back up your argument about why either the portable fission reactor or portable fusion reactor should be changed, then asked for "better energy values". I invited your though...

Well. Then it is minority.
Most players I play with are of the Game Mechanic Exploiting sort of people.

There were these mods: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/hacked-splitters https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Single-Splitter I heard recently that the Devs are miffed how OP robots are.
