What is the difference between choosing a name or choosing a color? Two main differences : - There are more color blind people than name blind people playing Factorio (I think) :mrgreen: - Two people playing MP chatting : "The light-green one" "Ho the one between the prune one and th...

The lights between the two middle red blocks of red circuit assemblers are offset 1 tile on the right, which a awfully asymetric feel

The map where I did my best main bus attempt, I realised that I had not enough throughput for all the green circuits I produced. I would advice to use the main bus for the parts that need reasonable quantities of greens, and to have dedicated green production for blue (and eventually red) circuits. ...

Kill'em. Kill'em all (Metallica fan inside :mrgreen: ). Or you can try and invite them for lunch, but you wouldn't be pleased to learn what they eat I guess ^^ More seriously : - first with your handgun - as soon as you have SMG, with the SMG - as soon as you have gun turrets, turrets ftw, with one ...

For such a problem, another suggestion has been emitted in another thread : that trees be marked for deconstruction upon blueprint placement, and do not block blueprint placement.
Well I think it was already suggested, if not, then it's a bright idea I just had \o/

bigyihsuan: Maybe you used the option for water only in starting area? That reliably turns the world into a desert :-) Well that explains why my recent worlds all looked so ugly. Any reason why it's like this? Deserts tend to exist where there is no water, this is true also for the real world. :p H...

By the way, at least a little forest chance near starting area when "water only in starting area" would be cool No way, desert worlds are already overpowered, their only weakness is a slower start. I disagree. There is nothing in desert worlds to hinder your pollution, thus attracting bit...

bigyihsuan: Maybe you used the option for water only in starting area? That reliably turns the world into a desert :-) By the way, at least a little forest chance near starting area when "water only in starting area" would be cool, I find it a bit tedious to distribute power to your facto...

The question is also : do you use some of your oil to make solid fuel for a hundreds of steam engines and for hundreds of steel furnaces ? Or does all your oil production go into petroleum gas via advanced oil refining and heavy/light oil cracking, all that powered by hardcore solar panel farms ?

But generally spoken: might be quite useful, if the networks are sortable (size, connections, generated power, used power etc. etc) I would add if you can name your networks to help you recognize them, and why not, add a feature to see the network you're hovering above in your network list with an ...

Yes that's what I'll do in my next world

Thanks. I use a requester chest to ... request ingredients to craft requester/provider chests, and I thought that I could use that same chest as output for the assembly machine that produced the smart chests, but I wanted to limit the amount of smart chests buffered to one stack. I'll know next time...

many think that games and movies are not worth the 15 euros (most of the times lol more) to buy. Yeah, but : one movie, 15€, 2 hours of watching movie, that's 7.5€/h One Factorio, 15€, 500 hours of gameplay, that's a whopping ... 3 cts/h And that's "only" for 500 hours of play :) I know s...

Tested in version [0.11.15] (not enough room in the title for the version :)) I just realized, after unwillingly building 1400 steel chests plus 2100 smart chests that requester chest content does not figure in the logistic system storage inventory. Thus a smart inserter with logistic network condit...

Not really : they spend all their time going back and forth between the requester chest and the surrouding roboports to recharge. Thus, they don't stop moving, and are not particularly easy to pick-up.

Sorry for the necro, but this is still true with [0.11.15]. I have the problem when I limit a requester chest's capacity with the red cross to lower than what requested items would need. Here is a screenshot, and the revelant savegame. I have surrounded the requester chest. Factorio requester should...

Do you have many open deconstruction tasks? See this: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=5653 and https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=8353 - I don't have a shitload of unreachable entities marked for deconstruction out of logistic network's reach :ugee...

Hi, I have searched in all bug reports speaking of deconstruction bugs, and couldn't find the same, even if there are some similar that have been resolved already. I have ordered the deconstruction of a line of belts, and some of them do not get deconstructed, whereas : - I have construction bots id...

Water only in starting area option on map creation.
Forests removed before even you start to play

Else, poison caps or construction bots if I have a roboport nearby.

You, sir, win the internets tonight
Thanks a LOT for the tip ^^
