Aren't bots necessary to keep max-boost assemblers running? As it is now there's lots of things that you can juuuust barely manage to keep running with bot-fed/drained chests, if belts can't be avoided everything's going to slow to a crawl, no?

Five of that should exactly fill six belts, that's a really nice use of space there, plus the duplication will get you good reuse on the beacons. Kudos.

So, there's more than enough firepower to make a full-auto defense, you can play with lots of different kinds of weapons but once you understand how things work fighting and expansion isn't hard at all, and by endgame it's not even really a factor (especially now with the artillery turrets). Okay. C...

I've added the options UI translations from 15.40, thanks to Wube for the permission.

Oh, cool. I was looking for "auto" and "save", so i missed
btw, that setting is in the default config twice with different defaults shown.

I use pcall for user-supplied console commands, I run them in an environment with handy stuff like `p` as the player, `e` as the selected entity, `b1`, `b2` etc as inventories, ...

I don't think this solution would be feasible - either your map is small and is saved within a second, or it is big and can't be simulated at fast speed - in lot of cases not even real-time speed. On UNIX versions of 0.16 (Linux and MacOS) there is an experimental option to enable asynchronous savi...

Put this in the tips. No idea how many hundreds of hours I've got in, I didn't know this.

Each+0⇒Each with an output post wired back to the input will accumulate all outputs on that wirewired to that combinator's inputs..

If the belt's compressed, you should get nine full item slots for every nine item slots. The bottom belt segment is the input/activation detector template, the top segment is the delivered-item pulse meter template, they're there to make settings copy/paste convenient. So it counts (with reduced-fra...

If you change your viewpoint a bit, that's what that circuit counts. The actual counting is a small fraction of it, 6/33 combinators (the lower-left six) to count up +ve-full-lane-slots-delivered and -ve-lane-slots-delivered, 16 to keep track of the last low-water mark on the difference—making it ab...

I really like a challenge where defending your base is a top priority. Maybe even a hardcore mode.

Rampant AI might satisfy that all by its onesies.

I am not worthy to comment on this, so I'll comment on that instead.

and/or for one-off use

Add `.insert{name='construction-robot'}` on the end.

I really really like the "change type or change tier or change orientation, but not multiple different kinds of change at once" option, that seems to fix all the cases that used to be a little frustrating without adding new ones.

Setting up test rigs is a convenience, right? Why make using infinity chests harder than a `/c game.player.force.enable_all_recipes()`? Specifically, shooting chests you don't want is pretty ordinary behavior when you're done with them and already have a full stack in inventory due to cheat_mode's a...
