This seems similar to what I investigated here https://alt-f4.blog/ALTF4-52/. Many mega-base builders also know about this limiation, and try to limit isolated network. There's even a mod to locate isolated networks to improve UPS. It's of course easy to reproduce by spawning many isolated power pol...

That would be awesome! It's been requested here as well by me 98618

For now you could try https://mods.factorio.com/mod/LogiNetChannels

It's definitely stable, already for some time, maybe even years.

Maybe each transport belt lane of the splitter can do a maximum of 60 items per second, in some conditions?

Feels got to move this from “Outdated/Not implemented” to “Implemented Suggestions”

(Even though it’s still a while until 2.0 comes out)

See 108862

Might need to be in the "Implemented for 2.0" instead

Is this because i host a game instead of create a single player game? Yes Is there something i can do to still play today? Yes. I'm not at my personal laptop so not 100% sure of the menu items. But you would have to go "Single Player" -> "Load Game" and then find your save-file ...

Always fun seeing a casual conversation in the Discord improve the base game

The names are the easiest thing to change. Maybe I don't take myself and the game too seriously and found it amusing, but if we had a very good counter-proposal which feels good and is clear when it comes to tiers, we can still change it. I do think there is a little room for improvement here. My m...

The last very frequent opinion was, that it would be better use this opportunity to introduce a lot of interesting custom recipes to get all the qualities of different items. But avoiding this was the cornerstone of the design. I prefer quality much more than adding multiple tier recipes. It clutte...

It would be cool to have some toggles like in the map view. The different toggles could be: - Show recipe/item overlay (old alt mode) - Show inserter/miner/etc arrows - Show quality - Show electric network (nice to have)(similar to Pipe Visualizer or Oxygen Not Included) - Show fluid network (nice t...

Overall, I love this! But I also hate the names! I expect you will make them moddable though, right? I'd name them something like Crude/Low (and you only realize the quality wasn't even good before you unlock quality modules and see it), Normal/Nominal, High/Great, Exceptional/Superior and Pristine...

Hello! What One of the annoying caveats of Fluidic Power is that you can only place poles in cardinal directions. This limitation is because the poles need a underground fluid connection to each other, and these connections are only in straight directions. However, in Factorio 2.0 we will have linka...

Epic! It's going to be a long wait, but very excited! Especially now that there will be a weekly FFF!

Kind of expected it to be space related. Curious now how SE will change once the expansion drops when it has new engine mechanics to play with.

Thanks for the report, fixed for the next version.

(Checking on the type that you contributed to? )

You got me XD

First! So close...

The third example in https://lua-api.factorio.com/1.1.89/typ ... l#examples should have the heading commented, just like the other examples.

For a simple flying spidertron you can look at Space Spidertron. Doesn't have guns though

I am trying to make a mod and I keep getting this error: Failed to load mods: Error while loading item prototype "Turbine-MK2" (item): Value must be a dictionary in property tree at ROOT.item.Turbine-MK2.icons.icon Modifications: Turbine MK2 here my code: --item.lua local turbin_MK2_item ...

There's no built-in way do get an entity (the chest) from the unit number. What modders usually do is to store a reference to the entity in global. Something like function on_created(entity) global.my_chests[entity.unit_number] = entity end function insert_stuff(unit_number) local entity = global.my...

IMHO the train status should be in the tooltip, just like all the other information in the game. Not a random floating text. Then we wouldn't have this odd issue
