This is seriously limited. You might want to give a try to these options in \AppData\Roaming\Factorio\config\config.ini :
low-graphics=true
graphics-quality=very-low
fullscreen=false

If this doesn't work (and there's high chance it won't) I have no other solution than updraging your hardware.

Sorry, was just too tempting, apologies for the disturbance, please ignore this useless intervention

It is logic to take more time for an inserter to make a longer movement. That's physics : at given speed, longer distances take longer time to be traveled through. But the thig that makes it a problem is the fact that the content of a given container is only accessible through a point centered at th...

I mean, I think players should have something very expensive they would like to get. ... Like a rocket ? a good way to do so would be to add super expensive feature ... like a rocket ! like army of robots, tanks or expensive machines to optimize your production ... or maybe a lot of rockets ...

I'd vote this to be moved to implemented once 0.12 come out

I guess the spirit is : if you come to need a buffer some time, it's the sign that you did not anticipate enough. The solution is not to build a buffer to overcome the lack of anticipation, but to anticipate better. It seems legit : if you have to do some effort, it's better to use it to solve the s...

It think this can be pushed to done, because otherwise it is a task that will never end. I do not agree this time : there could be real cosmetic parts that require a few ressources to be crafted, even if I feel what should be added is the concept of cosmetic part, and from there, to open the door t...

I'm not a security expert, but I feel the forum is less secure than the Factorio website : Factorio furum is in http, I feel account information is sent from browser to forum uncrypted. On the other hand, Factorio main site is in https (as soon as you try to authenticate), and communications are cry...

More like a timeline with how your current gameplay has been done ... Which isn't incompatible with a cumulative stats information you could have on your account, with X many zillions biters killed, ores mines, units of oil extracted, ...

Some machines have a drain, which is written in the description under the mini-map when you mouse over the building (typically inserters, laser turrets). The others only consume energy when active. On the other hand, machines' speed is determined by energy they're provided : a machine that gets only...

Maybe looking at that would negate your need of a specific mod :

He connects to the forum, posts us a screenshot, his log file, his hardware configuration (GPU, VRAM), whatever else he finds revelant, and then only there is a chance we can find what's up.

Hi, TL;DR : We need better information about the Hardware requirements on Factorio website. It seems to me (but I might be wrong) that as time passes, there are more and more people who have display problems due to insufficient hardware. I have tried to find official information abour the hardware r...

Totally beautiful, I love it

Nice, we have one more Factorio addict now :) So as a final diagnosis, I'd say your hardware is maybe a little underpowered to run Factorio in full screen on a WHQD display (might work with slightly lower settings though). And that solved, you had a minor display bug where Factorio window doesn't sh...

I feel this goes with these pretty well :

On any SSD, you can write several thousand times its total capacity before it really start to wear out. Even if an USB flash disk is even lower grade, I'm pretty sure you can write at least a few thousand. That's maybe 100 TB on a 32 GB USB Stick ... it's a LOT of autosaves .

Okay so If I understand correctly, when launched in windowed, the game doesn't crash anymore, but doesn't swoh up on screen, right ? If what I said is correct, you might want to give a look at this link : https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=4400 Scroll to Graphics, and the sec...

And if you want total awesomeness in difficulty options, replace the fixed hardcoded values by 4 slider bars (for red, green, blue and purple science), with 3 presets (easy, vanilla, hard), and let the user the ability to customize if he wants.
