But will most likely never happen : the devs have been quite constant on the topic of not making hand crafting more convenient to incentivize automation. In this thread , alternative ways of discouraging hand-crafting and providing incentives for automation have been discussed, so that the devs can...

I think it would be best if the player could leave the train on a specific side by holding the left or right button while hitting the ENTER key. That way, the discussion in this thread will only be about the default exit side (i.e. the exit side if no key is pressed). However, one problem I see is t...

This has already been suggested and discussed in the following thread:

+1 However, I do not think that this should be limited to beacons. It should be possible to connect many other types of entities to the circuit network. For example, a level 3 assembler with 4 level 3 production modules will consume 1.5 MW of power, which is significantly more than a beacon. Therefo...

That's exactly why I am suggesting it to be implemented as an optional mod. The server admin always decides which mods are used in a game. It needs hard coding in C sources. I do not believe that it is possible with lua modding interface. At least with reasonable performance and flawless functions....

But I think I would prefer it to be implemented as an optional mod. I'm not sure if I'd like to play multiplayer games where half the players run around in a Spidertron. Maybe it would be better to give multiplayer server admins options to disable spidertron (and other techs and weapons too, if the...

Unfortunately, there are issues with mirroring (examples here : https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=225836#p225836). As I have already pointed out in this post of mine , the issue with fluids could be solved by implementing this suggestion . However, the issue with train stations remains.

Personally, I see no need for a Spidertron. However, since so many people want a Spidertron, and there has been so much hype about it over the years, I think it would be worth the effort for the devs to implement it. But I think I would prefer it to be implemented as an optional mod. I'm not sure if...

Meanwhile, in this post, a Factorio staff member has shown another way to prevent the screen from flashing red.

Also, in this post, a forum moderator pointed out a mod that allows you to control the intensity of the damage warning.

This has already been suggested in the following thread:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=46938 can you make it possible to disable Red warning when taking damage

Although I agree with your suggestion, I don't really like the feature of shutting down a station for all trains. Therefore, I believe that the following suggestion may offer a more flexible solution to the problem you described: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=49214 Train entry ...

Why not to unite them into one? The problem of their separation is that the railway without signals is hardly suitable for use. It is all or nothing. Railroad must have more internal progression or be merged into single research. Signals are only required if you have several trains on one track. Ho...

I'm about 8 hours into a singleplayer railworld and this 'feature' is still incessantly annoying. At the very least, using an existing entity for proper spacing of new entities of the same type should NOT generate these errors.

I fully agree.

to honor the development the game has made. Is there a donation option, or do I have to buy the game a second time to show my empathy? :) I think it would be just as important to encourage all your friends to buy the game. If they like it, they will tell their friends, and they will tell their frie...

Fun fact, the wiki says that both upgrades have laser turrets as prerequisites. I guess it may have changed from 0.16 to 0.17. I think the idea behind this is that if there were energy based weapons besides turrets, it would make sense not to have the turrets as prerequisite, but the energy technol...
