One thing that would be interesting is being able to set a player's text colour separate from their 'ingame' colour…
that's totally possible right now through modding since each player has two color values assigned. one for the player name / item color and one for chat color.
my proposal simply ...

as a matter of fact i already know the game has two separate values for player color and player chat color. (yes, you can essentially write in a different color than your entity is colored in when assigning a different chat color to your entity)

so i'd say transforming my pseudocode into in game ...

tile on top of a cliff would have to be a little closer to the top of a screen, than the tile on the bottom.
i strongly agree to this. it would just mess up perspective and essentially break the current grid system. keep in mind the whole game is running in an alligned grid. nothing is loose ...

one bad sideeffect would be that this would increase map size pretty fast.
in addition to that it depends on play style. if you plan on creating a mega base you are usually going straight into one direction instead of spreading evenly.

to everyone: please leave feedback if you agree or disagree to this. commenting will bump it up in the thread overview. i'd like to know everyones opinion on this. strawpoll.me/15064935

i don't think changing the background is enough. see my text color change proposal here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=57796

very nice and fast response!
love you guys!

you should be able to copy them to your inventory and open them from there. it just does not work to open them inside the blueprint screen for me and others.

you just broke blueprint books in the blueprint screen. congratz (bug report exists)
please hotfix

confirmed on windows and macos. was just going to open the same report.
besides.. it's not only game storage. you cannot open any bp books in the blueprint dialog.

edit: got confirmation by 15 players. this persists across windows, linux and macos.

my blueprint-storage.dat is 10 mb right now. now think about the average.. probably less than 2 mb per user.
i guess it's highly possible.

i've used steam cloud sync for a long time in factorio now even though it is not recommended.. until i ran out of space due to savegames. it would probably be a ...

in addition it could be attached to the logic network and output the whole content of the belt.
thinking about how undergrounds work i bet this would lower belt UPS demands.

that area where the inserter grabs from could also turned into a loader to essentially get rid of inserter UPS requirements ...

if they become craftable i'd say they should be more expensive than they are right now.

it accidentially also fixed a segfault that was appearing in 0.16.17 when launching headless on linux.

And how would you expect the toggle to work? How could you close the console otherwise without confirming? Or would you like to have a different key to open and different to close? That sounds kind of weird.
My proposition is to setup the key to something you don't use to write commands (like the ...

thanks. you are totally right. thats the same issue.

hey there. same problem with backspace. if you set backspace as console key it will work fine in 0.15 but will close in 0.16

if you set backspace as chat key in 0.15 it will work fine in any text field.
however in 0.16 it will close the chat instead of doing it's purpose of deleting one character.

i'm on windows right now. have not tried this on mac or linux yet.
