Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

In debate, their is a technique where if you know you don't have evidence or you can't prove your point, you make alot of small assertions all over the place. Start many small fires all over the forest, and your opponent will have a very very hard time running all over putting all these fires out b...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

tl;dr. sorry. It's okay, reading is hard work. and that's why everyone should take the time to write as short messages as possible. Making an assertion takes a single line, disputing it thoroughly and explaining the specifics of why it isn't true might take an entire book. In debate, their is a tec...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

Yup, I'v set up a system where I'm not at the mercy to do whatever the creator and distributors of a product want me to do. I get to decide what I want to do. Because it's all about you, right? The entire world revolves around you personally. Thats what freedom is, doing whatever you want as long a...

Re: Disable Replay Function

Now that I replied to all that, can I ask again:

Is it even possible?
Is it something I could do with a mod?
Does it impact performance?
Does it affect filesize of saves?

Re: Disable Replay Function

Hiding "trade secrets" from woman I impress with factorio saves was a joke... I thought that much was obvious. I just want the option of having save files and playing the game without a recording being saved. Is this possible or is the replay function automatic. Don't you mean that is a bi...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

The problem with your reply is your trying on the coat in their presence, not taking it home leaving it in your closet or throwing it out afterwards and then saying you don‘t like it and not paying for it. the bottom line is you took their work and didnt compensate them for it. It is the company's ...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

And this is why demos are created. Because the company feels the same way as you do. But you dont give the whole damn thing away for free and then work based on a tip system where you only get what the customer thinks you deserve. Because everyone values are different and thus there is no stability...

Re: Tried to pick up a full chest...

This behavior at least has to be altered or the lag addressed for multiplayer, can you imagine ordering bots to deconstruct hundreds of full "chest bombs". Dat lag.

Disable Replay Function

Is it possible to disable replays somehow or is it impossible to divorce this function from the new deterministic systems behind factorio? If possible, could we add the option to the save interface or the new game interface somehow? How else am i supposed to protect my factory's "trade secrets&...

Re: Peace with Aliens

Having alien "research centers" that increase the attributes (speed, resistance, rate of proliferation) might be cool. They could be both a target for raids, or, a place to dump human objects for alien research to promote peace.

Re: Science Packs 1 - 3 in a 16x17 Grid

These are butt-flipping amazing!!! I hope that when or before the multiplayer comes out, we can get some kind of "blueprint hub" so we can share all of these cool designs outside of or even from within the game. I just really wish I could download all these designs, cheat myself some suppl...

Re: 2^x vs y*10^x

I am amused by this change: Before Wood, Iron and Steel chests were rigged to hold roughly 1k, 2k, and 3k, when using stacks of 64. This fit nicely when filling a requester chest to the brink as you had a buffer so bots didn't end up sending things into storage. Now they hold 800, 1600, and 2400 wi...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

Maybe mislead is the wrong word, maybe you actually want to see the game for yourself before you buy it, like trying on a coat. I can show you pictures of a coat, show you forum discussion about a coat, coat-in-action trailers etc, but actually trying it on is still nice. There is one problem in yo...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

What did you mean when you said "What does https have to do with anything?" doesn't it have to do with everything, session jacking AND the encrypting email? https is between you and Google. That's only one link in the chain. Correct, if that other person uses gmail, no problem, if they us...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

Well, I generally don't just look at the demo by itself; I'll often look at screenshots and preview the product on YouTube or gameplay trailers (if available). I'll also look to forums and reviews and other such things; the public is generally very quick at ratting out the company if it's being mis...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

So you were talking about stealing webmail session cookies in response to a comment about end to end encryption in message transmission? OKAY, that makes sense! I just mentioned that his concern ended during the era when session jacking became a problem and then was fixed. Both problems were fixed ...

Re: Pirating as a 'demo'. Your opinions?

Uhhh - if the game has a demo, why pirate? I find it highly unusual - probably just to thumb nose at authorities is all I figure. Because you can be mislead by a demo. You might want to see what a game is actually like in totality before you buy it. Maybe you want to know details about a game that ...

Re: 2^x vs y*10^x

I really don't care either way, as long as the logistics controller logic system covers the number amount for full chests, empty chests (the 0) value, and a few other key amounts.
