This is how many games do it, including minecraft for example. How should they do the version numbers istead?

Sorry I'm dumb

What did you do? I made a blueprint of Rails. What happened? While editing the blueprint (I wanted to remove a few rails) some rails went out of the blueprint editing window at the top or bottom and could barely or not at all be clicked. 0eNqVmN1uqkAUhd9lrqFh/oVXaU4aq6SdRNEANscY3r0oHHNo14RZl9byuTZ8G...

Still happens in 0.17.5
Same here. I think it happened to me 5 times now, in a save of the new campaign and a freeplay save. when it happens I usually open some GUIs run around a bit and after a few seconds it works again. I have no idea what exactly causes or fixes it.

What did you do? I smart replaced a small power pole with a medium one. What happened? The medium power pole didn't connect to another one that was in its range (but not in the range of the small power pole that was there before). What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, bu...

These results look extremely promising. The highest render time I could find on the "New" benchmark was 22.62ms which would be about 44 FPS whereas with the old build the lowest FPS would be about half that. Although the integrated graphics had the low quality compression enabled, this was...

Thanks for the new toggles! The toolbar will be an awesome addition. Please make the personal roboport a 3-way toggle. On/off/self-only. With self-only in multiplayer, inventory won't empty/fill when walking by something done by another player. One thing to consider is should self-only still repair...

Toggle roboport and exoskeleton is great. Maybe toggle all trash slots too?

+1

What the gif shows about fighting enemies looks super fun! However, to me these new sprites look a bit out of place in the bland environment. I think the aliens and acid are a little too colorful, this is a very minor critique point though.

It seems to always be the case, but $nextUpdate is going to be the biggest Factorio release so far.

What happened there? is "$nextUpdate" some kind of formatting error?

Automatically turning on ghost place when construction robots/blueprints/whatever is unlocked sounds smart. Also retaining the ability to turn it on yourself in the options as well maybe (the option should be "allow ghost placing before construction robots researched") The quickbar looks ...

I generally like the style of the new GUI but I find the confirmation button being shaped like an arrow (as can be seen in the graphics settings GIF) a little irritating. It makes it seems like there is a second screen to this particular settings category. I would prefer the button to be a normal re...

Couldn't a mod pack just be an "empty" mod with dependencies?
The feature to easily download and activate all the dependencies for a mod would anyhow be welcome.

Good idea. A feature to automatically download dependencies would be very nice.

In the bottom mockup it's not entirely clear how to start the update. I guess you do it with the "update selected" button but the color throws me off. I think it would be easier to see if the button was green like other buttons that confirm an action.

I love it that you made a typo in this sentence

After all - programmers and human and we make mistakes.

Either they changed it or I just got baited into checking if they actually made a mistake.

I already posted this as a reply to the FFF #262 but wanted it here too as it got pretty big and suggestion-heavy. I hope this is okay. I think the idea of the Compilation is great and it got me thinking about a potential lore in the normal freeplay mode. I think the game having more of a story coul...

I will also post this seperately in the suggestion subforum as it has turned into a rather big suggestion-heavy post. I hope this is okay.
