> The one issue I see with this is that I was getting massive FPS drops before I ever got artillery. The problem is too many active biters, there are 2 ways biters can turn active in large numbers (that I know of anyway). Thru artillery or thru pollution. With pollution its normally not a problem un...

I believe this issue to be the same or related too the issue reported here:

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=68582&p=417832#p417832

I have added some notes to that post, hope they help.

I think you are experiencing the same problem as me, and I believe its related to artillery rather than pollution (although pollution can cause a similar problem, I have never seen pollution cause this much of an issue) Here is my bug report: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=182&t=643...

I can confirm that this is still an issue in the latest patch 0.17.5

@dooces was kind enough to take the time to explain this to me last night. And this is the way I see it: Each inserter has a shopping list of items that the receiver is interested in. Eg In the case of an ASM this will a short list, for a furnace it will be something smeltable or more of what ever i...

I have also launched many satellites in 0.16 and a load more in 0.17 but the research queue has not unlocked. I really dont want to have to use console commands to unlock the reserach q.

This bug presents in a very similar way to the bug that was fixed in 0.16.16 under this thread https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=55370&p=331467&hilit=frozen+biter#p331467 This save is from a multiplayer game on the explosive servers that uses a custom scenario script. I do...

Ok thanks, that doesnt feel very intuative and I cant think of a reason why you would want to be able to do that.

I had assumed that alternative zoom was so you could have a key binding and a mouse binding.

I am not entirely sure of the terminology for all this stuff and far as I can tell this hasnt been reported. Maybe its better to just say what i did. How to reproduce: Change the control for zooming in and out to the keys ',' and '.' Enter map view (press m) Result: You can not zoom in to the level ...

As it is implemented currently some belts and other items can disappear on mini map. I am guessing this is because the resolution is less than 1 pixel per square? If you use anti-aliasing then this would not be a problem and we would have a much better mini map. This would also be a nice feature for...

The new auto launch tick box has to be set individually on every silo, it can not be copied like other entity info and doesn't seem to be saved in a blueprint. Doubt you will need a save to reproduce this one, but here is one I have used for several other bugs I have reported that has plenty of silo...

On attempting to load an old save the game crashes, the crash is reproducible without any mods installed, although I originally noticed it when I had the "creative mode" mod installed. here is the save: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zovqce49e3aqcru/Megabase2.0%201rpm.zip?dl=0 (this is a differ...

Apparently this has been fixed in 0.15.3

Good skillz

My inserters are trying to insert satellites into my rocket silos before the rocket is ready to launch when the rocket result inventory is empty.

Can be seen in this save: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tqemxpwceez03 ... g.zip?dl=0

Inserters picking up from the exit piece of an underground belt have a *very* small area on the belt they can grab items - which results in the poor speed you're seeing. If you don't want to deal with that poor speed then you need to not pick up from underground belts. But that doesn't explain why ...

Yip that seems to have sorted this one. Thanks for the quick response.

On this save: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tqemxpwceez03c0/GigabaseFinished_inserter_bug.zip?dl=0 (same save as my other two bugs reports) The fluid production screen shows a massive mismatch between the oil produced and consumed. (approx 1000 times) I think this is because I spawned in oil patches wit...

When I zoom in on my character from the map view I can't see normal view and just get a zoomed in map view as though I dont have any vision on that area of the map. Here is the save.

I first noticed this bug in 0.14 but didn't report it in the hope that it was one of the many bugs you guys fixed for 0.15. However, it still appears to be around. Today I have confirmed that it is in 0.15.2. Nb this is in my 15RPM megabase save. I have sets of underground belts leading into my rock...
