Re: Fluid Mechanics Still Broken, 6 Years Later?

Those are all distribution problems with demand exceeding supply, produce as much as you need and you have no issues. This is the same answer as it was 6+ years ago. It's such an incredibly simple solution - I have no idea why people insist on making fluid splitters when the root issue is "You...

Re: Quality level run-off poll

Why? Because this is the same logic already employed in the game with Assemblers and Modules. If you used a new system, it would just be confusing. q4.png q2.png There is the visual information ! that's what i meant Ah, yeah, missed where you actually mentioned the dots.

You listed 20, and there are 22. :)

Re: Quality level run-off poll

As for Q1-Q5 names, I still don't know if Q1 is the best or the worst on that spectrum :P Maybe there should be some campain where the arguments for each list could be heard before people vote :) Q5 is obvisously better than Q4 for me, because 5>4 ! but really for me the idea was to have the number...

Re: Friday Facts #403 - Train stops 2.0

I think the ultimate thing for making remote control of your factory while you are away is a drone hub cart for trains. Just think of it, it already possible to spread your logistics network by placing new drone posts on the edge of it, but it would make process simply annoying to reach distant ore...

Re: Quality level run-off poll

I'm going to assume that almost everyone that voted Q1-Q5 are actually fine with the "Legendary" names I'm not sure that'd be a correct assumption. Obviously I can only speak for myself, but I would prefer straight numbering over words that many won't remember or even use. I realize there...

The 'primary' poll to find the popular choices for quality level names seems to have stabilised (after a late run from 'Basic' to overtake 'Normal' for the first level). So here is a run-off.
Hey, should you maybe update the other poll pointing people here? (Can polls be "closed"?)

Re: Friday Facts #402 - Lightspeed circuits

It's actually more trivial than that. You can just decide that any object with an y coordinate "higher" than the foundry's top position appears behind it, and everything else appears in front of it. Is there a reason this can't be done? That looks simple enough.Why not render sprites from...

The 2014 trailer contributed to trigger my initial purchase. It has been updated a couple times, here is the last version from 2020 :

Re: Requster / Buffer / Provider chest combination

I'd be curious to know if adding this would make the others obsolete, and if not, what unique functions would be retained by the originals.

And holy damn... that crafting speed on the Foundry is ridiculous. The flickering looks sooo bad it hurts my eyes. I hope you consider changing the animation of that or something. Or as someone already wrote in the thread... have a static animation & just display a static items/sec number once ...

Re: Stack inserter name change

TL;DR. Change the name of stack inserter to bulk inserter sooner rather than latter. After FFF 402 I’ve had several conversations about the space age update regarding the new bulk/stack inserter, it has had several people confused on more than a couple occasions now on which one is actually being t...
