I use DyTech Inserters, NoMoreBots, Rail Layer, and TimeButtons (among others) with 0.10.12. Mostly the zip files/ folders need to be renamed to match what's in the mod's info.json . When running Factorio from the command line the errors it gives will tell you what the mod's file/folder should be na...

Well, that's *how* it does it, but the inferred end goal was the combination of two items on two belts heading in opposite directions, into one belt that heads perpendicularly to the original two, with a throughput as high as possible. *shrug* still useful in any case. :) No doubt, though I gotta s...

That save segfaults for me on linux x64. Fortunately I've never personally had one of my saves crash just from loading the save and waiting . I wonder if this spells a 0.10.13 fix. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 0x7fffeae0f700 (LWP 11018)] 0x000000000059aae...

How to join items onto 2 sides of an express belt faster than a T joining intersection. I haven't measured it but it prevents resource starvation on my advanced circuits line.





Shouldn't this thread be stickied or something?

It would have been handy a few times for me but I don't think it's a high priority.

Same here.

I agree with increasing wood stack size to 100 and bringing the wood/chest fuel values more in line even though I don't think most people burn such things except to dispose of excess. Perhaps something like:
wood =1.5MJ
chest = 5MJ

Don't forget grenades. I've lobbed more grenades at trees than biters. The combat shotgun is also effective. If you are into mods there is the explosive termites mod that will destroy trees/coral with extreme prejudice.

I'll admit that on some games I would place a single wall at the site of a destroyed nest so I didn't need to be concerned about them coming back. Yeah, it seems slightly cheaty. Spawn limitation changing with evolution might be a good idea.

I can't seem to get Factorio to crash from this. I'm not sure what the difference would be but I do run the Linux x64 version. As for the wire not being added to the total I recall some thread where the devs said it was more or less intended. Besides if a power pole hooks up to 4 others you don't ha...

In spite of the minor issues remaining I think this will be our awaited stable version. Enjoy the quick radar rescan when loading old saves (done since there were changes to what is drawn on the map) better make bitter-setler Normal biters already settle. I've seen new nests but never caught them in...

I think electric furnaces are just fine currently. I like having some trade offs with the electric furnace. I've gotten the rocket defense with only steel furnaces because I had lots of coal. However in my current game with resource spawner overhaul coal rarity made me put a big effort into going to...

I can only notice that vibration on the closest of zoom levels. I'd never have noticed if you didn't say anything.

I can confirm this. 150 shields * 30 J/shield =4500J the shield mk2 prototype says max_shield_value = 150, energy_source = { type = "electric", buffer_capacity = "180J", input_flow_limit = "180W", usage_priority = "primary-input" }, energy_per_shield = "3...

Ssilk use your rotate key in this scenario.

It turns out that during my previous tests the forest didn't want to give me low fps with vsync enabled. I had been mostly running with vsync off since my initial tests so I didn't see it. I saw that happen today. Disabling vsync causes the low fps to go away. I don't know why it didn't give me low ...

I'm not sure that this need to be fixed since it goes away and I couldn't get it to happen in a fresh sandbox game. Saving and reloading doesn't cause this to happen again. Just thought you guys should know. Steps to reproduce: 1 Open an old save like this one . 2 Look at the map. (if you wait more ...

Pasting text from outside Factorio into the command console(ctrl-v) works perfectly fine until you try and copy or cut text out of the console(ctrl-c/x). The first cut/copy sometimes works and other times it puts binary data in the clipboard ( 33 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 1F 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 74 01 00...

What version of Factorio are you running? The 0.9.8 stable release should work the way you describe. The 0.10.x branch hasn't yet shifted to be the new stable version but it should happen soon. On 0.10.11 logistic robots would rather grab stuff I'm requesting from a storage chest a few hundred tiles...

The other thread made me curious about obscure control issues and I found a couple. I use this mouse on linux x64. In the controls menu when you try and set an action to mouse wheel left it says "Mouse wheel right" and conversely when you try to set an action to mouse wheel right it says ...
