Nice to know that red/green wire ingredients doesn't vanish from the world when built/deconstructed. Pop quiz: can you spot the shadow problem I want to fix next? Wires being drawn in front of the pole even though the wires should be behind? I believe that this problem will be even more visible with...

As we can’t walk on the bridges what happens if for example a train runs out of fuel on elevated tracks over water?

If you don't want to use landfill... Deconstruction using robots? You really don't want your trains to run out of fuel

Can we walk on the bridges? You can't. biters also can't walk it. If you cant walk 😞 on the rails dont bother doing hand rail graphics , thay make it look too cluttered anyway I think that without these "handrails", it would be hard to visually differentiate elevated rails from normal rai...

I like that there are non-dead trees on the 9th screenshot. Would it be possible to keep trees alive in the expansion?

They did not know it was impossible, so they did it.

I'll buy it, Factorio deserves it! I will be able to play the extension on the switch!

There are some people here flooding this thread with dozens of comment, trying to justify Russia's ongoing crimes... Can we have a banner on their posts to show that they are "repetitive poster" so we can safely ignore them... They are disgusting. Hope this is addressed by next FFF. Thanks...

First post in this thread, here's my short comment: We will all agree that a country (Russia) is invading another country (Ukraine), destroying cities and killing countless civilians in the process. No matter what is Putin's problem with Ukraine, nothing justifies being a war criminal. The world is ...

You might add a wire, if fluid greater 1000, then activate both pumps That's called "workaround". If you play like a pro, you can really fix many things. Average and newbie players cannot do that. Maybe something for tips & tricks. Yes, it is a great idea for tips & tricks. Actual...

Pollution-wise speaking (considering energy from solar), putting efficiency modules in beacons have no drawbacks, only advantages. Because beacons, while having a 480kW energy consumption, doesn't produce pollution on their own. We could investigate the effects of mixing different types of beacons. ...

Maybe going into ONI's direction with space exploration. And/or exploring some of the 4X mechanisms.

Or making an entire different game while keeping the engine and logistic (belts) of Factorio.

I knew someone would call this. . But is this normal? Think of a radio song with 3 Minutes silence

The listeners would then rather think that the radio reception is disturbed and change the channel. It's all about Interpretation.

Fish Story (2009)

I tried the new smart belt building. Is it possible to keep the feature active without having to press R repetitively? Basically I would like to be able to make turns without having to press R every time. I tried to keep R pressed while turning but the key has to be released and pressed again every ...

I would prefer infinite research that doesn't make blueprints obsolete. I can think of (like others suggested): -Stronger defenses (small HP buff to player/buildings) -Faster recharge speed for bots (although one could think that it makes some blueprints obsolete) -Bitter pacifier (could makes bitte...

I haven't run huge nuclear plant designs since years, but I remember it was a hassle because of the low throughput of pipes (had to run 4 sets of 8 parallel pipes IIRC, so 32 pipes. A lot of things have been announced about fluid, few made it to the core game. I'm curious if it's any better now (thr...

-Smart belt building OMG finally, thank you. Simple details like the old clumsy belt rotation is what put off new players. -Multithreaded belts I am curious about the desync problem. If I understand correctly, a specific setup (2 items arriving at the same time) could produce different results (whi...

TL;DR: I official request an advanced interface option "I know what i'm doing, just let me flip everything." option that just 180° rotates fluid-assemblers, pipes, etc and disables the smartness. (I thought the prevent-fluid-mixing saga told us a thing about smartness.) Yeah that would be...

Very interesting video.

@OP, if you only reached green science, you haven't seen most of the game. There is no goal, the rocket is a lie (just kidding).

Thanks for the reply, I didn't know about the menu sprites. It's still great to be able to play Factorio on my notebook (Intel Pentium N4200), I would have never imagined possible to beat Krastorio on it. It really tells something about how well optimized the game is. I can't wait to enjoy the new H...

Quite often, Factorio.exe is executed just to change the mod config. Slowest computers can take up to a minute loading sprites. What if we could skip the loading of sprites? We would just need a button (disabled by default in the settings) or a shortcut.
