@ssilk Well, I cannot agree with this approach. In my mind it would oversimlify the process of playing with logistics. It would be like placing two teleporters and transporting stuff on them. Creating layouts - that's why I love this game! The thing is when you try to imagine and come up with the be...

If they all are facing forward then they do. If two locomotives are facing opposite directions then "tail" loco does not help pulling rolling stock, but on a contrary acts like an additional weight which have to be pulled. In the other hand this train doesn't need loops.

Flea thief sounds cool
Do it steal from chests?

Also it would be fun if we could find all stolen goods in its hive after destroying it.

Clever solution
Never think of it like that. Thank you.

In other news, is it just me, are some of us thinking of a ropeway station as a 2x6 or 2x8 structure while others are thinking of it as a 2x2 structure? I think of it as a modular object. You have in hands only 2x2 pieces — place 5 of them in a row with no gaps and get a 2x10 station, make a gap an...

I Probably I should make another thread for that, but I suspect that there are already tons of such suggestions on the forum. Not exactly like this. :) the most similar I remember is eventually this: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7406 I have no reason why they cannot be ...

I don't quite understand what you mean. You said that ropeway could be built at any angle, not only N-S or E-W directions, right? Ok, that's fine. But now you say that there should be no turns. This means that towers should be on the equal distances from each other, which is not always possible beca...

Sorry for necro, but didn't find another similar thread. What you think about idea of Diggers ? They are relatively small and weak bugs (or worms), but they are capable for digging a tunnel just into the middle of your base! This tunnel can be used by other creepers and must be destroyed before they...

So wasteful! Underground pipes are very expencive for such small gaps. But you can turn inserters on 90 degree so they will transfer coal across the lines of boilers, not along them.

ssilk wrote:Oh yes, the ropeway can be in any angle, they need not be exactly horizontal or vertical.

Agree, but probably there should be an restriction for the maximum angle and if you want to make sharp turn then you have to place few more towers.

I also thought about something like deafault rail laying machine, but not so buggy as the mod and having more functionality. Something like universal programming bulldozer. It can not only place tracks, but also cut trees, place power poles, walls and turrets. You can drive it manually or make a pro...

Nice! Don't forget about returning cable.

Well, now it sounds reasonably.
But you know, this would bring the whole new function to simple inserters.

Hmmm... what? I didn't say anything about filling inserters manually. What do you mean? Do you mean that inserters should pick up repair packs from belt and put into themselves? Clogging belts with them would be even worse, until we had robust gameplay mechanics that would force us to permanently m...

Перевод делается энтузиастами на добровольной основе, которым никто ничего не платит, а разработчики просто собирают это в репозиторий. Не нравится — играй в английскую версию, за которую только и заплатил — там всё правильно.

Filling up every inserter manually, that is what we are lacking of!

Thumbs up for healing trees.

Remember the new year friday facts? Devs asked us for ideas to make floors usable and functional. Colored logistics floors, that's exactly what we need
