The rail segment is really cool and useful however how about making the line segments arrows as it is possible to have a missing signal on only one side of the rail
This. It would be really beneficial to those of us trying to make rather complex train systems. I can do track, but I'll be @#$%ed if ...

So this suggestion certainly isn't new, but the forum search and google didn't turn up anything helpful. Please let me unbind hotkeys in the menu! If there is a way, i could also not find it btw (usually games have an "unbind" button somewhere). This is really badly needed if you play with a couple ...

Also the Advanced Gas Refinery is actually worse, Crafting speed of 1 instead of 1.5 (for the Gas Refinery), while also being 6x6 instead of 4x4. (Power consumption is also higher, but who cares)
This part isn't a bug; it's like the chemical plant/advanced chemical plant. The simple version is ...

There's also another bug in that regard: The Gas Refinery MK2 has all inlets and outlets one further out (in the air basically) then needed.

Completely aside from the main discussion here, why would anyone ever, ever use efficiency modules? The only reason i produce a couple of them is for power armor mk2. It is just that much better to simply plop down another solarfield or steamengine line.

The problem with steam is like I said it ...

Efficiency Modules
Tier 1 (miners, assemblers, etc.) and 2 (furnaces) efficiency modules are easily the most used, and also fairly cheap, tier 3 has very few uses. To save 80% of your energy usage I often see them used before the far larger investment of tier 3 productivity+speed, and in many ...

Why not just make as someone said, a battery-type ammo? Perhaps you can script it so when it depletes it spawns a depleted battery cell in your inventory, you would have to "Charge" in an assembler-like machine?

Unless you wanted to have it run from your power armour? Then my guess would be to ...

Turrets have 4 entity types (Ammo, Electric, fluid and no input, used by gun turret, laser turret, flame turret and worms respectfully)

Weapons used by the player, or vehicles like car and tank only have one type, Ammo, therefore all consume an item.

Equipment grid weapons also only have one type ...

Damn, you guys are just too fast Thanks!

I'm currently making a weapon-mod (actually finished, this is the last issue), in which the weapon can also harm the player itself. If you kill yourself during running and shooting, the game crashes: log . This is only while running, killing oneself while standing still works fine. (Killing other ...

After looking into it some more, it seems this is just not possible right now. Very sad, but oh well. Hope the devs make that possible at some point

First of all, thanks for the answer!

I realized i probably didn't make it clear, but i want to make a gun, not a turret. I just looked at the laser turret because it's the only weapon in the base game that operates solely on electricity.

The electricity for the gun would come from the power armor.

I was wondering (and actually trying around) if it is possible for weapons to consume energy in any way, preferably instead of using normal ammunition?

Using consumption_modifier = 0 with a 1stack ammo is a kinda workaround for the latter part, but adding energy_consumption = "1MJ" to the ammo ...

Yeap updating works for that. I reported the factorio bug responsible for that actually: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=44870

It was fixed in 0.15.3.

Also Bottleneck and Logistics will get a slight facelift in the future

That's great to hear

Just as an FYI, Bottleneck Logistics also works, (kinda as expected) by just upping the version number in the info.json.

Both mods would benefit from having the option to put the colored icon on the highest level in the draw order, here is why: http://i.imgur.com/xZef266.jpg
Notice the covered icon ...

Yeah the nuke is disappointing. I was expecting a long range launch system, a much larger explosion, more damage, and at least a crater


The dev should definitely make some changes about this, the toy rocket is unacceptable.

From what it looks like right now i think it's a dummy implementation ...

Aight, thanks!

trold/Nexela, is one of you planning to update this for 0.15? Unfortunately just changing the version doesn't work, it errors on start: http://i.imgur.com/TQYEzyl.png

I don't know enough about factorios data structures, otherwise i would fix it myself.

Hey i would be thankful if i also can a ...

I'm 99% sure this isn't working correctly in 0.15.1. This always evaluates to false, no matter what is happening in the furnace/assembling machine. Am i doing something wrong here? Otherwise i'll post a thread in the bug-forum.
