Re: It's nice when things come together [utitility-science-pack]

A second station will have a second train loading copper and on the way in parallel. It's similar to having a train limit of 2. The layout of the train tracks just don't allow for a station with 2 trains as limit without blocking the main line. It's similar but having a better rail layout allowing ...

Re: It's nice when things come together [utitility-science-pack]

Didn't have beacons and very few modules. It's not mend to scale, just work for now. Ah that make sense, i was in editor mode so it was easy for me to have the modules and beacons to make some improvements. It found it helps a lot as yellow science is expensive and late game enough that i don't bui...

Re: It's nice when things come together [utitility-science-pack]

I have been playing with this blueprint this WE and i found out, although it is very beautiful there are quite some ways to improve it : 1) This blueprint doesn't use module instead different tier of assembly are necessary to achieve ratios, this means it doesn''t scale well in the future. 2) This b...

Re: 64-bit integer limit

this issue also arises however when wanting to store a particularly large value. Say, the amount of power your base is producing/consuming, One can't read that on circuit though, it's only the accumulator charge. or how many seconds your base has been working for, or how many iron plates you have m...

Re: Automate Biter clearing - Robot army

A visually interesting and automated way to clear the map of biters. TL:DR - Clearing biter nests gets boring, gimme a visually interesting automated way of dealing with it. o7 I don't know if it's fit for all factorio game, but one can use those two mods together : https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Sp...

Re: Friday Facts #403 - Train stops 2.0

I think most of what avatars allow will be allowed by remote control from map view, whereas teleporter allow you to also teleport your inventory. On a distant planet, or outpost, you could do a few back and forth trip with teleporters to help the building process. Maybe i wasn't able to properly mak...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0

With mods I have a stacksize for e.g. Landfill of 1000. Which means the division is limited to values up to 2 million, which my store of ore can exceed quite easily. So not even a general solution for computing stacks. I'd be curious to know why so much ore stockpile and how you deal with the divis...

Why? Because this is the same logic already employed in the game with Assemblers and Modules. If you used a new system, it would just be confusing.

As for Q1-Q5 names, I still don't know if Q1 is the best or the worst on that spectrum :P Maybe there should be some campain where the arguments for each list could be heard before people vote :) Q5 is obvisously better than Q4 for me, because 5>4 ! but really for me the idea was to have the number...

Re: Friday Facts #403 - Train stops 2.0

I like the flintstone mechanic, it is necessary for elevated rails in my mind, if you run out of fuel above water, but it wasn't necessary to also make it available for single wagon and i like the extra details. I like the ability to copy color and limits by naming the station the same a an existing...

Short of a button you can achieve the result by editing/removing the mod list file located in this directory by default : C:\Users\[yourusername]\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods\mod-list.json ctrl F replace all "true" by "false" would also work, you could also move the file out of ...

Re: Friday Facts #402 - Lightspeed circuits

It's actually more trivial than that. You can just decide that any object with an y coordinate "higher" than the foundry's top position appears behind it, and everything else appears in front of it. Is there a reason this can't be done? That looks simple enough.Why not render sprites from...

Re: Average troughput for the last second using memory

it's an average of 1 second of time, it's also an exact count but it doesn't make it less of an average throughput, the average of every tick over 1 second I gave it second or third thought, and for it to be an average i'd expect a division, 15/second is not average over 1 second of every tick, tha...

all your understanding is correct. It's an exact troughput, my bad.
