I remember some time ago you had this big banner https://cdn.factorio.com/assets/img/blo ... 9-img3.jpg
It would be great to have a t-shirt with this huge base printed on it.

I would love this too!

And taking into account that sizes are different in between countries, could you post the length between shoulders as a refference.

Hmm, doesn't it show this for you? Or is the "A" measurement not what you're looking for?

So if I violate some clause of the terms of service, you're allowed to dox me? Is that really what this says? :shock:

I still have 0.17.54 for Linux in case that helps anyone, that might be compatible with the modpack for 0.17.47. (Of course, I would require some proof of ownership of the game, I'm not offering warez here.)

I love these ideas

I guess it confirms that it is a bug and that a few meteor defense installations should usually do the trick, but for some reason not in my save.

The meteors seem to come way too often for me. In the intro I read they're supposed to be rare, but I get like 20 per in-game day, all over my factory. I first tried defending myself with 4 Meteor space defense installations (with ammo, charged full) but they don't even try to stop a single meteor ...

Read spidertron, stopped reading, read comments, disappointed, will now continue reading.

Woa, I love these so much. The graphics style is different from vanilla, but that you get a glimpse halfway inside and see what it does to the materials, I love it.

all the realism doesn't matter as long as its fun and looks good, realism is just a tiny bonus.


Agreed. People often go "but that's not realistic" when that is not actually the goal of a game.

That said, I actually want to comment on this to say the opposite :D

Namely, one of the reasons I ...

0.17.32.

We play in evenings after work and dinner. I don't want to spend time and effort every time on downloading a new zip on the server, unpacking it, renaming directories, and testing whether everything works without any changes. Then later, the upgrade becomes so large, that the bottleneck is ...

Agreed as a computer scientist as well. We know screen colors in Kelvin, too.

I, too, think it's slightly too bright, but someone made a fair point that it needs to be visible during the day. Perhaps the brightness is okay, but I liked someone else's suggestion of making it less wide instead (just ...

I think you should have to defend your railway lines, power poles, etc.

but... you do have to? I'm running double or sometimes triple power lines to outposts and fix poles whenever one gets destroyed. Railways are less bad, but they destroy those too when they're scrambling near the base.

Should ...

That's ridiculous.


Well, hundreds (thousands?) of people backed the game and were included in the list of default station/locomotive/radar names, but only a handful contribute in a way to get a special mention in the FFF the way Boskid did. I don't know how valuable it was to the game, but ...

Boskid bugs, for anyone else who is interested to see the list: https://forums.factorio.com/search.php?st=0&sk=t&sd=d&sr=topics&author=boskid&fid%5B%5D=7&sf=firstpost

I like the ideas that people posted about a honorary mention of Boskid in the game, something related to damage or repairs. That ...

Did someone say spidertron? Spidertron!

Besides the title (base-breaking) which is derogatory and should not be on the official wiki

Oh, I had not considered it that way. As a software guy, a "breaking" change is just something you have to change dependencies for (your base is dependent on Factorio's recipes, and since it's an alpha ...

This might interest people that follow the releases: https://wiki.factorio.com/Base-breaking_changes

Network message segment size can be configured in server-settings.json, for server providers with large enough upload bandwidth.

Is this explained somewhere? I don't see info on the wiki. E.g. above how much bandwidth should you modify it? Why is it set lower by default, to lessen lag for the ...

-1. I'm completely with the devs and mod opinion. It's only a QoL Laziness option for a good routing of items. I know it could help in exchanging the fuel to the new fuel type, but it has to many side problems you need to define and make it a complicated thing.
