One Friday I had forgot to check for any news on Factorio website I got a notification e-mail. Just splendid

When you die you often have to turn off your logistic request slots to stop bots rushing to fill your empty inventory. It would be very convenient to be reminded of the status of the personal logistic toggle on respawn countdown window. If it does not match the situation you can simply switch it on ...

That explains things. Does that include pollution and destroy factors? This is how it is said on wiki and what made me calculate wrong: The percentages are applied on the base of (1 - current_evolution_factor). So for instance destroying enemy spawners in the beginning of the game results in increas...

After looking into how the evolution progresses something seemed wrong. All below checked and calculated for time evolution set to 200 and all other to 0. From what I have read on the Factorio wiki, every second evolution factor is increased by time_factor divided by progression factor ( 1 - enemy_e...

Why?

My brain stopped working due to playing Factorio all night. LOL
I am clearly confused.

There is an arrow showing that transfer of items is possible from a buffer chest to a requester chest. This arrow should be gone. In addition to make the icon more accurate, there can be a small construction drone and engineer in the middle with small black arrows pointing to them from storage, acti...

TL;DR Some way to place a blueprint in requester chest that will cause for bots to bring all the content required to create the blueprint. What ? If blueprint is placed in requester slot (chests and maybe even personal request slots) bots will make sure there is enough items in the inventory to cre...

TL;DR A switch, just like "Auto trash and personal logistic" on/off, that, if activated would automatically lower item's "Minimum requested amount" as it gets used. What ? It would need to lower the amount in cases of manual building, personal construction bot building, chest/ma...

I have just created blueprint book called 1.0 and began work on it. It is very far away in the last slot but 1 should definatelly be before most of my books. I have tried to move the book manually to the front but it just grabs the book that was in the first place. Do I really need to click over 100...

Probably allowing us to change "double_density_distance" would be enough if it affect oil as well.
However it will be linear increase and may still be out of hand easily. The best may be some sort of square root or logarithmic increases if it will be possible.

TL;DR I would love to see some slider that will allow for a lot less generous resource patches as I get further from base. What ? As it is now, resources are getting ridiculously abundant not even so far from base. Please add some additional settings when we generate worlds: 1 - Distance resource m...

Thanks! Great job with the Spidertron surprise
It was my best early access game experience so far, I can't wait to see what is coming up next. Expansion or another project is something worth waiting for.

the new graphics look really nice. However, I noticed that on the technology icon of the logistic 1 research, the underground-belt on the top right faces the wrong way. On the logistics 2,3 icon, it is correct. This must be intentional Easter Egg. It signifies that when you research logistic 1, you...

Nice. The crash site addition to free-play will make all the speedruns results obsolete with 1.0 release. It will be fun watching who will be the first to get all the records.

Post EA HYPE!!!!

Love the new blueprint and library changes. As soon as they get released Factorio is officially gold worthy game!

I wonder if the slow effect bubbles wouldn't look much better if they got an offset of a few pixels up.
Now it looks like flying ball under biters legs.
If it was on the main torso it could look much better in my opinion.

Please, if we need mod to see alt mode beacon feedback, give us back ability to earn steam achievements with such non-intrusive mods.

New enging icon is so much better!

The sound effects are just too much. Why is there a delete placed bp sound effect? I really liked it being silent. There is zero reason to have most of these sound effects, and I feel the game is going to be a horrible cacophony of noise. (Many people on the steam forums have complained already at ...
