I never bothered to use the combat bots. Soon as I realized they had to be manually deployed (thrown) and they had a limited life span, I considered them not worth the effort. I think it’d be better if they were like other bots and were automatically deployable from roboports (both personal and othe...

Then it’s possible there’s something about the mod(s) that you are trying to enable/disable (either on their own or through interaction with other enabled mods) that’s causing the issue.

I think that moving between two parallel pipes is quite reasonable personally (in actuality, large pipelines are often above ground level so you can sometimes even go underneath!). Yes, though if you think about it, you could potentially put them too close together IRL, too, which is exactly what w...

I think someone else was reporting the same issue: viewtopic.php?f=29&t=70912

Not 100% sure if I’m correctly getting what you’re asking for, so if this is wrong, please forgive me. I think what you’re asking for already exists: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/beltplanner-patched Edit: There’s also this that, while it doesn’t automatically put the belts down for you, will automa...

+1 on this.

You could also say that the corner piece’s outer edge doesn’t make an exact, sharp 90 degree corner and instead curves/rounds into it, thus cutting into the available walking space. Makes sense from that pov.

bsnowb, I don’t know if what I do will work for you, but I like to leave biter expansion on, then use the RSO setting for changing the biter spawn chance to a lower number. Allows for dealing with lower numbers of them initially, but they can expand and grow in number as time goes if you let them.

Is there a way to fix the railway and make the game playable again in railworld with many cliffs ?

This for me.

Thanks.

Introducing the suggested feature would only solve the specific problem that OP describes. I think it would be better if a more flexible dynamic train schedule were introduced, which would solve a much larger variety of problems. This has been discussed in the following thread: https://forums.facto...

Something like this would be nice to see implemented.

This would be nice to have!

I kind of agree with the OP. If you haven’t played as long as what the graph view is for (ie, if you’ve only played 65 hrs and are looking at the 250 & 1000 hr tabs), it shouldn’t be making the calculation as if you’ve actually played those 250/1000 hrs. It should go with your total play time or...

The time has already come to release new fluid physics. Come on, make a final effort and do it already. You put it off for too long. If you can't wait for features to be implemented, maybe you should stop playing early access games. :mrgreen: Feature?! It's not a feature, it's a major (even critica...

Throwing in a +1 to bringing object avoidance back for the rail planner. Many have said the words better than I can.

I use the Alien Biomes mod and I feel like in many ways this helps. Just my opinion, though.

The time has already come to release new fluid physics. Come on, make a final effort and do it already. You put it off for too long. I'm actually pretty surprised it's not already done. With all the fuss about nuclear eating your UPS, I'm running ~20GW nuclear with only 0.25ms on fluid manager upda...

I've been away for a long time (RL + other reasons) and recently have been looking to come back to this. Yesterday I was reading through the various patch notes for 0.17.X to try and catch up on what I've missed and discovered the changes to rail planning. I can understand wanting to make the rail p...

Can you add user settings for Bot Servicing that control the following? Construction bot break chance Logistic bot break chance Resource cost to repair (on/off) Currently I feel as though Construction bots break too frequently for my tastes, while Logistic bots don't break enough (my assemblers for ...
