It would be helpful if we could set preferred hosts (so when I desynch momentarily, it doesn't start hosting the game across the world from everyone else).

A replay for Multiplayer is quite useful! Why? Timestamp 1: player 3 connects to a game with two other players. The game-state is copied in the background. The game is sved. None of the two players sees any glitch. The game runs smooth. Player 3 begins to download the saved game. Timestamp 2: playe...

The reason is "so you don't waste assemblers".

One copper cable assembler with speed modules can feed something like 12 advanced circuit assemblers with productivity modules.

What?

On big map, robot lost many time to find a robotport when they are empty of energie.

That's why they changed it so robots will just move slower, instead of exploding.

but pipe don't have gas. so i thank "gas is insufficiency".

I didn't say your gas tank, I said your assembler. If your gas tank has lots of gas and your assembler doesn't, then you probably disconnected your pipe accidentally.

You could add infinite levels to some of the upgrade researches.

i have two reasons first, i want just watch it second, my gas tank level rise up but, my plastic factoy don't make plastic bar If your plastic factory isn't making plastic then at least one of these is true: It doesn't have coal. It doesn't have petroleum gas. It is waiting for something to take th...

The slider *is* a series of small buttons, compacted into that space.

Character Logistics Slots is another research that could have more levels for the end-game.

Branching off from solar boilers , custom prototypes should be able to use something like this: energy_source = { type = "solar", emissions = 0, max_power = "60kW", -- Power usable at maximum sunlight; follows the same time-of-day scaling as a solar panel } The wiki says that res...

A smart inserter which has its condition set, then is rebuilt from a blueprint without keeping its wire connections, will not wake up when the wire is reconnected. Steps to reproduce: Build a test setup, where a smart inserter is wired to something and activated. The exact condition doesn't matter. ...

Good question, and I have no idea. Depends on how the game stores and exchanges station information internally? If the clients just send inputs to each other, the naming should be purely decorative. Player 1 creates a station. The default name is "Backer1". Player 2 sees it as "Town1...

How about a modular armour component that increases your pickup range?

Click in the box and type 150.

This is a good idea, although I think its usefulness is limited. Either way, I'd like to see it implemented. +1 Would you like to guess which ones of 50 assemblers on the screen are not working because they don't have enough materials, and which ones are turned off? Because there is no way to tell ...

I hope you haven't forgotten about the power lines which are not connecting properly when you delete one in between of two others which normally should connect but don't do. That's not even a bug... the only time power lines connect automatically is when you place them. It's definitely not intended...

Probably because of the logistic network overlay.
