iOS has a special way to handle hotkeys, coming from Windows/Linux
Maybe you have rebound ESC to something else in system settings, which is handled with prio.
f.e. if I press Command-Q, factorio quits. I can't rebind it in the game, if have to free the combination first in system settings.

Stupid question maybe (Mac newb), can you have multiple standalone installations on mac?
There is a dmg file, which lets you install factorio the usual way, but is the a zip version for mac?

The advantage is, that you don't have to open the assembler.
or from far, you don't have to know the exact recipe and anticipate what item is missing

Hm. This is similar to the idea, that if there is no beer in your refrigerator and you click on a button, then beer will be delivered. :D Maybe it works for some people; I think very few people would understand that. It’s not intuitive to make it so. It would make sense to have a keyboard shortcut ...

Expansion groups and attack groups are totally different things. Settings under expansion only affect the expansion mechanic. Attack groups are collecting, while the spawner consumes pollution. They have a gathering place near the nest, many spawners share a single gathering place. If you hover over...

TL;DR Fast entity transfer/split also works for items linked on toolbar. Currently, nothing happens. What ? When I open an inventory and Ctrl-LClick / Ctrl-RClick / Shift-LClick / Shift-RClick on an item linked in toolbar, it should transfer the item according to rules (all, half, full stack, half-...

I think, many people are thinking like that. But maybe it helps, to give you some arguments, why it isn't the best idea to always start over from scratch: - You are never faster to build a better base by starting from scratch. You can just build a new base somewhere on a free space. (Biters could be...

• Loaders now show their item filters in alt mode.

Looks like loaders getting some attention, what could that mean?

Yeah, seems like it.

Is 0.13.20 the most current demo?

"2016-09-04 17:06:05; Factorio 0.13.20 (build 24011, linux64, steamdemo)"

I can openly admit, I consider most big mods for factorio not fun, and not challenging in the ways I enjoy. I therefore voice my opinion, that I would be in opposition of removing marathon, and or making it a mod. It obviously would get less support than in gets in the base game, and I obviously am...

I love expensive mode as game feature, but the realization is not optimal, esp. for modding

I disagree to remove it, but rather change it.

You could just download the latest full .tar.xz file, extract and check, if it works https://factorio.com/download And direct link: https://factorio.com/get-download/1.1.71/alpha/linux64 EDIT: IIRC the .lock file says, that factorio is running and locked to be started twice. Maybe try to delete it (...

Not sure if its a problem, but I have "pulseaudio" at that position

Okay, I fixed it, but it's such a weird issue, I'm not sure how to even feel about it. Having my 8bitdo controller plugged in, in nintendo switch mode, as the first controller, completely destroys my steam and, by proxy, Factorio gets really finicky as well. Well, strange. But glad you found it. So...

I tested with Gnome on Wayland, and it's not really better there. Not sure, whats the problem, but it might be that, NVidia is not very well supported for Wayland. I guess, I just wait...I'm ok, how it works on Xorg currently search for my wayland troubleshooting thread and try some of the ideas th...

It sounds like a special problem for you PC. Either OS/drivers or even hardware. You could try to update drivers, OS You should check CPU / GPU temperatures, which could throttle down the system, if too high You can check for RAM (Memtest) or HD failures. If it's that the problem then it's not any ...

OpenGL on Linux is a bit stuttery sometimes. that's actually an issue with Xorg, which goes away in Wayland (to be replaced with other issues, especially in hybrid graphics systems, e.g. laptops) I tested with Gnome on Wayland, and it's not really better there. Not sure, whats the problem, but it m...

Maybe it's memory related, that it's getting low? That's what I was thinking, that dedicated memory to factorio was somehow limited at lower values, or that maybe something is causing my game to consume much more memory than it's supposed to (but if it's a memory leak related to the map then it sho...

I stumbled over this, when searching an answer for this question. My solution on this is now, that the robot has a force and not a unique owner. So, the owners are all players of the force local players = {} for _, player in pairs(game.players) do if player.force.name == robot.force.name then table....
