Re: Is it possible to align a column of switches in a custom gui table?

Please don't just post wild guesses. Then I apologise for trying to help you. I'll refrain in future. ...And it seems to me that you ... how to say this diplomatically ... don't know that much about creating modded guis. I hoped that my own acknowledgment of that fact would have been enough, so thr...

Re: your thoughts on menu simulation

Regarding the simulation sound: There is a volume control, and it seems that many are missing it (myself included at first)

Perhaps the naming of it is a little obscure?

Re: Create module request when placing ghost over existing building

Hmm yes it doesn't work for modules. Everything else such a recipe and filter changes works, but modules can only be added to a new/empty building. It seems odd that modules are treated differently. I just confirmed 0.17.x too, so it must have been this way for some time - perhaps always Apologies f...

Re: To build or not to build (miners)

Balancing energy consumption and pollution output might also be two critical factors in the early game that drives the need for mines. I tend to err on a slight overproduction of ore and rely on saturated outputs to limit energy and pollution at the mine, but then keep a eye on ore consumption to ga...

Re: [1.1.5] Placing ghost over existing building does not place modules

There is already a method in the game, but it's kind of hidden - Create a temporary blueprint instead of copy paste. This allows all attributes, including modules, to be copied to the existing building. Start a new BP Hold Shift while selecting the source building Place the ghost BP over the target ...

Re: Are griefers/trolling common?

Any game that becomes popular and has an online presence will attract people like that. I believe Wube have left it to the admins of any online instance to police the problem. If it is your own instance, then you have the option to ban player via the admin interface. Otherwise report it to the admin...

Re: Is it possible to align a column of switches in a custom gui table?

Does the "anchor" option allow an absolute switch element to be set and the labels relative to that? No, GuiAnchor is for a completely different purpose. Also the beauty of using the switch'es built-in labels is that it automatically manages the label style when it changes from left to ri...

To ensure that the correct scancode (if indeed that is how Factorio reads keyboard input) try the following: Open Settings > Controls > Search for "paste" Right mouse to clear the current binding Left mouse to re-assign the binding Press CTRL+V Confirm This should hopefully read the correc...

Re: [1.1.5] Ctrl+V does not paste blueprint string

I don't believe it has. The OP has a keyboard that is not standard US language keyboard. It is QWERTY, but another language, it's not clear which one. The windows paste keybinding of Ctrl + V works out of game, but this may be due to windows recognizing a different key code as V than standard US la...

The Blueprint in that post did not work at the time, yet others on this forum did. Curiously, it does work now since I've taken a break. I fixed it, it was not empty it just had a line break in it that...broke it. I was beginning to question my sanity. Thank you :D That does not mean I'm not mad ho...

Re: [1.1.5] Ctrl+V does not paste blueprint string

To rule out the keyboard layout as any potential issues, can you try using the windows on screen keyboard to enter the Ctrl-V to paste? If you read the above, that has been ruled out already, and pasting to a text editor has been proven to work. Ohh my, I managed to find a BP button that is empty! ...

I'm using Window 10, I did try to change de paste keybind, the problem is that is the blueprint import windows, it does not use the factorio keybind, it's just a standard copy/paste text windows, and therefor uses normal window shortcut.
