on some of those I thought it was the same as comparing the view between daylight view and night vision view. It made sense to me that goggles would flatten the colors... I don't miss the old way when it made everything green.

It was good to see the cliffs highlighted a bit more on the map as they are though to see for my old eyes.

Good job on the tool-tip rework. It feels more refined. It also is correcting values I've been mis-remembering.

I would be happier if they would add circuit functionality to the turret i.e. measuring the ammo in it.

My criticism about the Belt Immunity module applies the same to the Night Vision module. You can make more than one but plugging more than one into modular armor does nothing.

The game should need 1 for yellow belts, 2 for red, 3 for blue.

Without biters you'd most likely be blowing up your own shit.

Usually, when you try to explain your reasoning for a change and the playerbase doesn't I don't accept that reasoning, it means to me the reasoning was flawed and you should reconsider whether you're making the right change. A lot of us I Think I understood the reasoning behind the changes, we I ju...

I can point to myself as an example of these premises, and can declare with confidence that from my point of view, leaving BOP running as you did would not have been acceptable, given the categorical superiority of efficiency afforded by AOP. Moreover, as I covered in my post, withholding critical ...

Sorry I don't understand to which fact, confusion, or misunderstanding to which you are referring? If you are talking about a building that potentially has a recipe for multiple outputs (i.e. petroleum gas, light oil, heavy oil), then (discounting mods) forgive me but I think that's the only one. S...

Because it may actually make things worse for new players in that it teaches them a bad lesson (that oil refining is a 1-in-1-out recipe), and punishes them for putting more effort into their factory. (See this post for details.) I must commend you in forcing me to yet again read that heroically TL...

No one here has talked about the logistical cost saved when you have a PG-only refinery. So what if it produces 10 less? Now I don't have to deal with the 60 non-PG oils, its storing, conversion, transport, and powering all of that play the game to do so. You guys that don't see the other side of t...

I have seen both sides of the delayed teaching issue, and it wasn't pretty either way. As the learner the one wrong fact (confusion, misunderstanding, whatever you want to call it) at the beginning multiplies as time goes on. As the teacher, once than train of confusion gets underway, it is much mo...

My final note on this thread (as I am abandoning Bland Factorio)... This oil change was the final nail in the coffin for me to play anymore Bland (some of you refer it as Vanilla) Factorio. This is just way too easy. I bum-rushed Advanced Oil Processing (so much for preventing that), got the Heavy ...

Do I like the oil change? yes. Why? It changes the way I play petroleum. not trying to twist words, but this part struck me This is at the heart of the issue as I see it, with the current recipes, the entirety of the refinery setup is for the production of one fluid instead of each fluid having a v...

The solid fuel in 0.17.0 did not really work. The science only consumed miniscule amounts (especially since you could make it from light oil) so it was still just a matter of time. If sulfur was on HO, then that would change the amount of SF produced to be more in line with consumption, as well as ...

I wish to repeat my content with the changes to help counter the repeated arguments against. We'll always hear more from protesters and they do deserve to be heard; but often their voices drown-out the people like me that support forward progress. People stating the game is being dumbed down too muc...

Biters seem to add a sense of urgency to my games.

hooray for tooltips on the quickbar ... i keep mistakenly deleting blueprints from my quickbar

I guess that's the rub, right? Before when first tech'd into oil, we were producing 100 units of petroleum (40), light oil (30), and heavy oil (30) from 100 units of crude. Now although we're saved the logistics of managing the light and heavy oils, it's super inefficient; 45 units of petroleum from...
