Is an artillery train really needed? Why not unlock the vehicles equipment grids as part of vanilla and add some more goodies for the grids. It seems way easier than making a new train...

Re: Friday Facts #200 - Plans for 0.16

Hi Factorio Devs Please keep going with the FFFs. Its the highlight of my week, the only light amidst a shitty job. Regarding map gen, please make when setting resource frequency to very low that it spawns even less patches and further from each other for awesome railworld games. Currently vanilla m...

Re: Problem placing offshore pump

Hi You need to tap "R" to rotate objects. Press "Alt" to see the detailed overlay. It sometimes show an arrow which indicates the direction of output. Placing an offshore pump should be easy because it kinda snaps to the shoreline but you need to rotate it so the pump pipe thingy...

Re: Question about Bob's Vehicle Equipment

If you use the electric vehicles mod you get the voltage transformer which goes into the grid and make the vehicles drive. Then you can power that with solar, batteries, fusion or even regenerative breaking...

Re: Stuggles with trains

Keep in mind "blocks" should be at least the same length as your longest train. I can see why after a shared block you need to have room for a complete train so a green light means that the train can completely leave the shared block. However, why does the block size matter for normal (lo...

Re: [Rseding91] [POSSIBLE BUG?] No Science Packs When Shutting off Silo

I thought my report was very simple and straight forward, but in my attempt to re-create above mentioned, I came to the conclusion that I must have launched the rocket without a satellite while messing with the circuit network and launch controls. I apologise for the false alarm. Please delete the t...

[Rseding91] [POSSIBLE BUG?] No Science Packs When Shutting off Silo

I made the save just after this happened. I do not think the rocket silo should act in this way, or is this intended? What happened is: I switched off the power to the silo just as the rocket launched and I did not receive any Space Science Packs. Not even after switching the power back on. I will a...

Re: I really want to like this game....

Hi Heartstrace. I personally think Factorio is one of the most awesomely fantastic games ever, and it is not even done yet. It is like a big box of Legos and you can pretty much do whatever however you want. The game requires patience and time. A LOT OF TIME. I really think you are going to miss out...

Re: Stuggles with trains

See if this will help. It works for me. Path/chain signals before crossings and normal/block signals after crossings where long track begins again. Keep in mind "blocks" should be at least the same length as your longest train.

I really like this idea. Give the player more control over their gadgets. The GUI concept seems good too.

Re: New Satellites for New Rocket Results!

Yes! Here is the answer. Put the God-mode map view increase zoom distance behin space science packs used to unlock a new satelite giving you a better zoom angle. Then perhaps make a MK1 and MK2 version sattelite.

Re: Advanced Walls

I agree, please add advanced walls. Just a simple retexture of the current wall would be fine I think. Make ot a bit more mid game research. Use steel and concrete and make it very strong. Perhaps make the texture a bit lighter due to the concrete.

In both games I just chased to get roboport, panels and modular armour as quick as possible. The problem is that it re...
