Being able to draw on the map is a fantastic planning feature. I'd love to simply just have coloured lines I can paint on free-form, mainly when planning out expansion and future train lines and stuff from the map view. Bumping this thread because it's still not in the game, so the best we have is m...

Often times you want to set some constant number, like "I want 7.5 stacks here",

Can I actually do this? Instead of just doing math (10*100), or typing 10k, can I do like "10s" and get 10 stacks? S for Stacks?

Please pardon me if this is already mentioned, but I stopped reading this thread at page 5 because I realised there's 24 pages of conversation and I think I have an idea on how this could be implemented in a simpler and intuitive way. Please consider this design: The goal here is to not throw light ...

Might be related - I am running my headless server on CentOS 7 and that didn't have glibc 2.18 so I had to manually compile it to run the server. You could do the same thing? I followed instructions from here: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=54619 More information: https://forum...

Steam is taking ages providing this update

Please provide the linux headless tarball so I can update from 53 to 54. I can see the full game is https://www.factorio.com/download/experimental but it hasn't arrived at https://www.factorio.com/download-headless/experimental to obtain so I can update my server.

EDIT: Thank yoooooooooou!!

If you wouldn't mind posting the output of "ulimit -a" that might contain a clue. $ ulimit -a core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited scheduling priority (-e) 0 file size (blocks, -f) unlimited pending signals (-i) 31371 max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 64...

Incomplete or corrupt download or the devs messed the package up. Yeah I had this too using the core-linux_headless64 package for my server. The delta package didn't seem to update correctly, ended up with the following error when using update_factorio.py after a massive series of logs that unfortu...

You don't HAVE to DL anything. It's not food, water or sleep.

I think you're wrong. Factorio IS sleep! As Factorio goes up, sleep goes down, thus Factorio is a valid substitute for sleep! Who needs sleep when you've got Factorio? I think you need some shut-eye

Very convenient idea. I always end up pressing R repeatedly because I forget which way I need to rotate the thing, and if I go past it I spam R some more. I should really be using Shift-R more often, and also not missing the correct rotation. The arrow keys are an absolute, no-mistake solution to my...

TL;DR The player cannot rearrange/renumber each row of the toolbelt to change the order. What? I think it would be very useful to be able to customize the toolbelt a bit by being able to renumber or rearrange the rows that we have set up filters on. For example, if I have a selection of filters on ...

I have not played with it enough to know how to save the toolbelt from one game to the next, but you’re supposed to be able to do exactly that. This enables you to set it in one game, and then not have to set it again. That’s also why there are 10 rows in the toolbelt, two of which are active. I do...

Ahhhhhh yes, of course! Well spotted, grats

I thought the automatic updater was for the game client, it didn't occur to me that both the headless server and client would use the same services Derp!

Why were the 0.17 versions removed from this list?

Is there a shortcut to put something from my inventory to my toolbelt? I know the toolbelt is now just a shortcut to what's in my inventory, but when I get some transport belts, I'd like them on my toolbelt. I have to open inventory, click the transport belts, then click where I want it on my toolbe...

How to make wires (standard electric ones - not green/red) to look pretty? I want my factory looks nice, but when I place poles - they are connected randomly to electric network with "multiple wires everywhere" - usually in directions I dont want them. And also poles are rotated based on ...

What have you attempted to resolve the issue? It could be a graphics driver issue, or possibly data corruption. Check your drivers and do a verify of the game data (assuming Steam version) to make sure all's good. Change some settings in the graphics option too, like texture quality or compression o...

Try and explicitly include the config.ini path in the command you execute to start the server (the -c option). To test if it is being executed correctly, flick the check update flag so that you can see a change in the output to ensure it's being read correctly.

I would like to update my headless server from 0.16.51 to 0.17.0. I am using the Factorio Updater script. It pings the this endpoint and I believe it is looking for a {"from":"0.16.51","to":"0.17.0"} entry to perform the update, but there is not one there. Is ...
