I just ran into the same problem, I don't remember having this problem in 1.16...

I would suggest a simple fix that shouldn't break anything: Instead of reducing pipes hitbox, why not reduce only underground pipes hitbox?

I love this new blueprint library, but I just have few comments: -I though that "Select new content" for a blueprint was to add new content, not to replace current content by new content. -I tried to press C to cancel it... But this is not a cancel button... I suggest: -Rename the "Se...

Very excited about the blueprint grid. Mirroring blueprint would be great. I often have to open my browser and go to this specific third party tool to mirror my blueprint, having it ingame (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-M) would be easier. But if I remember correctly, this suggestion has been rejected in the past be...

Hype for a new updated trailer! The current trailer is amazing, even with old graphics. It looks row, mechanical. We can feel the brute force of logistic and automation. Do you plan to change it entirety? If it's too polished (like with too smooth camera moves, or map too big), it might not be as go...

You don't have to respawn the vegetation every tick. You could apply the calculation just once every "day", I think it would be barely noticeable.

Hi there, with the speed change of belts in [0.17+], blue belts move 45 items/sec now instead of 40 in [0.16]. This improved throughput creates the new challenge of supplying fully compressed belts of items. To creates new blueprints, I used a custom set of rules and objectives: • Production of full...

Could we have a clarification on the fluids mechanics in a further FFF? A lot of things were announced if previous FFF, and it seems that almost everything is cancelled. What is going to happens to fluids now that Dominik, the author of FFF#260 - New fluid system has left the team? About the Campaig...

Thanks for the water, trees, fixed color (+sliders), Inserter/belt performance, heat pipe performance, fluid pipe performance (even though I'm a bit confused about what is already updated, what will be updated soon/later/never) Can't wait to get in the game again! I also wanted to raise the issue of...

All of this looks very good to me. It helps with the feeling interacting with the terrain and entities. Although some previous comments makes a point, just remember that destruction doesn't happens often in an average game. All those new graphics, even if not perfect yet, looks good enough to me. In...

Always happy to read your FFF. The 3 things I'm waiting for to continue playing: -Color update -New UI (at least character inventory menu, and others very used menus) -Fluid improvement Anyone knows when each of those could be ready? (few weeks / few months) Also, what have been updated yet with the...

[...] Tileable reactor: reactor.png So I'm not the only one to use tileable nuclear setups. It's very similar to the one I built in my 1rpm base. In my thread you can find the blueprint for the "head" (the controller with very simple circuits) and the "body" parts (2x2). Pros: b...

Thank you, this change is very welcomed. Before, I was forced to increase my monitor luminosity to 100% to have a clear view of my character's surroundings.

This change is not only graphical. For me, it's readability and it prevents headaches.

When will this change be effective?

I don't use outposts and I don't use much walls. I just add laser towers in my rail pattern.

Why not buff the productivity by 0.001%?

Productivity module 1: 4% bonus becomes 4.00004% bonus
Productivity module 3: 10% bonus becomes 10.00010% bonus
4x Productivity module 3: 40% bonus becomes 40.00040% bonus

I think it's more difficult to see the batteries in a base. Check this screenshot, can you spot the battery lane as fast as you can spot the iron/copper/... lanes? belts_stuff2.png Maybe the problem is that the batteries (and the solid fuel by the way, is it a placeholder graphics?) have roughly the...

Nine month ago, the battery graphics was changed in 0.16.51 . Some people reacted to it because they didn't like the change. I would like to ask the players today: are you happy with the current battery design? Please vote without being influenced by other people's posts. You still can change your v...

Changes Changed landfilling result to be tile called "landfill" instead of tile called "grass-1". It looks the same for now, but it solves some unexpected behaviour. We might give it a custom graphics later on. (https://forums.factorio.com/67282) Existing blueprints containing &...

I saw that the belt immunity module still consume energy, even when I am not standing on a belt. I would expect that it consume energy only when standing on a belt, to compensate the movement. Others module items like exoskeleton, personal laser defense, shields and portable roboports only consume e...

Anyway I think pickaxe and belt immulity images are probably placeholders and should be updated later

When I reach 65% of the research, I noticed that my ammo production was too low. I shut down all my base except ammo production. I produced ammo for 30 min but I produced exactly as much as I consumed. The pollution didn't drop at all. I managed to win by rushing the end of the research as biters br...
