I didn't bother accounting for the health regeneration, which, for a medium biter, is 0.01 per tick. It's negligible on a couple rounds, but it's a 0.6 per second, so 84 bullets with no regen, translating into 8.4s firing, that's an additional 8.4 times 0.6 HP, so 5.04 HP regenerated during the firs...

But I'm not really against 4-10-24 damage (I'm neutral so far). I'm just against your reasoning. If you argued that 8 damage for red ammo vs 5 for yellow is a fairly small upgrade compared to the damage research bonuses (I haven't checked those numbers) and that the cost for such a small damage bon...

The way I'm used to seeing things is that higher tiers should be better in some, but not all ways. Assembling machine 3 is better at speed, at module slots, but if time and space didn't matter, Assembling machine 1s would do the job better for less resources. Same thing with belts : 3 yellow belts a...

... I can't figure out the way you calculated your stuff. I did a sanity check, and things don't seem to match. Take the simplest example : small biter (15 HP, no DR, no res%), with a yellow magazine. With a gun, you'd need the 7th damage upgrade to OS a small biter (200% bonus, 5 base damage, 15 t...

Hello. Then I have a simple question about quality. If I have a simple production facility at my base, for example, assembly machines, and I am not currently interested in their quality. Will they stack into one pile regardless of rarity or will they start taking up 5 times more space? If I just or...

The game is very stable. Provide more info on your crash if you want help.

No doubt I will

Grey, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange quality. Or level 1-5 quality I'm also fine with the RPG flavoured quality names, I've seen the uproar against them, but they're awfully universally understood. they might not be "immersive", but they have the advantage that most people will understand the...

What are you guys hoping to see in tomorrow's FFF? I want to see these so-called "different military targets"

Not interested in military, but I could do with more QoL. There's no such thing as too much QoL .

I am no expert on statistics, but I know that casinos are able to precisely predict how much money they will make in relation to winnings payouts because of the way an average becomes more precise given the number of iterations. I'm OK with playing in a casino if I'm the one who wins every time, an...

This needs to stay possible.

I don't agree with this statement. This condition isn't necessary for a game, neither to be good, nor to be enjoyable.
It's a nice cherry on top though, I do agree there's something awesome in just being able to 100% a game in one run.

This has been addressed in the last FFF (https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-376). When the expansion comes, it will be always on.

I don't know if the issue behind this suggestion will be taken care of, but we've had recent news that there would be some improvements on the train system with the expansion, let's wait and see, before we reactivate anything.

This is a suggestion from the community, we have no clue about if something from here will make it to the actual game .

For completeness, not the same suggestion, but suggestions trying to address the same issue : https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=81142 https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=66073 This "I forgot to set the option upon map creation again" has a long history :mr...
