I think this might be too OP. Pack spidertron with construction bots, repair packs & personal laser defenses. Set patrol route. ??? Almost free defense. No fuel or ammo needed. Not sure you even need repair bots if you add 2 or 3 MkII shields. And if it isn't enough, you could simply add one or ...

FYI: There's a keybinding for toggling personal logistics.

I agree. Absolute snapping seems to be applicable to modular rail networks / city block megabase construction and not much else. Relative snapping is useful for many things, maybe even more than non-snapping, which makes me thing that maybe relative snapping should be the default for all blueprints ...

When I attempt to order a spidertron to follow my own character in multiplayer I get the floating text showing "-1 Spidertron remote (1)". I would expect it to issue a follow-order as it does when clicking on other players or on myself when in singleplayer. spidertron-remote-self-follow-mu...

Kudos to Wube!

Kovarex said it's fixed for v1.1: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=80646

Did anyone else notice the equipment slots UI was moved to the bottom-left corner?

On the topic of alerts: please allow some way to cycle through multiple custom (programmable speaker) alerts.

Thanks!

Congratulations to all!

Hey, since a recent 0.18.x experimental branch update the blueprint library no longer shows other players' blueprints in multiplayer. However, as I understand it the blueprints are still stored in the savegame in order to remain synced with all players (indicated by the icon changing from grayed to ...

Same crash.

There should be a way to kickstart water/steam pumps at remote outposts that are severed from the main grid, or to recover from blackouts, especially at night when solar panels can't be used! Another issue is that other machines will siphon electricity away from pumps during a blackout, which is esp...

I tried configuring my router to no avail.

Steam it is then.

Thanks!

I am getting the message "Could not establish network connection with server" a lot since switching to Windows and the standalone/DRM-free version. It seems that I can connect to bigger / headless servers, but every personally hosted server (often named "XYZ's game") I've tried t...

I feel like biter attack waves became less predictable at some point in 0.17 or 0.18. In my latest freeplay I built a lot of ad-hoc defenses around my factory and it seems like they always manage to sneak around even as I fill in more and more of the gaps in response to the attacks. It's usually onl...

I think this would be quite useful. I've wanted this many times before. 1) In blacklist mode you cannot disable it by erasing filters. 2) Performance isn't the driving concern here and adding the option won't prevent you from disabling the inserters the traditional way if you do care about performan...

I'd say inserters & robots should also prefer to remove items from un-filtered slots first. I always have to put the filtered slots first in my cargo wagons, because otherwise the inserters that remove excess items (due to stack bonuses) cause these wasted slots. wasted-slot-space.png Very minor...

I made this repair pack delayed availability contraption to prevent robot deaths and it relies on logistic robots being able to take the partially-used repair packs out of the roboports and put them back into the chest (otherwise the construction robots prioritize the roboport packs). It's not terri...

I just built this behemoth and want to rearrange the power poles (ignore the substation) so that they don't occupy the middle space between cargo wagons (because it's good to have some space to move around more easily, to route the odd belt through or to leave space for other modules that might need...

Inserter interaction indicators do not show up if you place a belt after the inserter is already placed, if the inserter is also interacting with a cargo wagon and you mouse over the inserter itself (not the belt). Correct behavior when placing the belt first: after-placing-belt-first.png Incorrect ...

It seems 'emissions' was the old name for it before version 0.17.29 and that mod needs to be updated or it may break soon. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=422109#p422109 Added emissions_per_minute property in the energy source, that is supposed to replace the emissions_per_second_per_wat...
