Perhaps I missed it, but one of the concerns about meddling with the beacons was whether the user would be able to calculate the benefits quickly in their head. I am not saying head calculus should be a showstopper, but the need for more clear presentation of throughput numbers becomes even more pa...

Doesn't "global statistics" imply statistics over a globe, or in other words a planet?

Exactly what I was thinking when reading that word. Maybe something like "universal" (from universe) would be more fitting here?

"Galactic Statistics" also sounds cool.

QOLs are nice, but aren't exciting. I just hope that the devs are pushing out all QOL stuff first and once they run out of them they will post content FFFs (rather than the update and expansion being mostly about QOLs) Poppycock. I can not express how excited I am for all the train QoL updates. I a...

I have to say, although I've liked playing Factorio off and on for the last 5 to 10 years or so, I don't think I'll be buying the new DLC. This game has become way too complicated. All the changes I see here are just for a very small amount of people who have a massive factory and understand how tr...

I love you

I didn't know if I wanted to be sucked back in to the ever growing factory, but this above everything else has sold me. To clarify, this is a core engine feature which will be available for everyone with the 2.0 base game update. You are too kind. But how could you not get the expansion to better en...

It's possible that I'm tired of the game after playing it for several years. I think the main thing, though, is that my interests as a whole have been shifting towards reality and away from the computer as my life develops. Good on ya OP. It's a real problem that we're collectively dealing with, an...

Thanks for the posting! I shared it with many of my coworkers at my fintech company, and there was a strong show of gratitude for it. Always great to see the struggle towards progress rather than just the end result.

I think a more accurate interpretation is progress isn't always a good thing

2. To pacify with aliens is not possible, since they look and are ugly parasites. you cannot transform parasites . parasites consume death&life to exist. Missed that one. Yo do realize that the paraistes are not the biters (the natives), but the engineer (the invader) ? You're characterization ...

Dejavu. Thanks for the fix!

At least the first part of your suggestion us the same as 80525 . I think there are good arguments for and against this suggestion. I really can’t decide if I find it good or bad :) I'm not sure I entirely understand his point of view. Why would he have an issue with holding shift to place ghosts w...

Very similar to this fixed issue https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=65679&p=403349&hilit=zoom+using+key#p403349 except it is happening on the map view that is in the train schedule window. To reiterate, the map zooms faster than intended when using a keyboard keybind to zoo...

Here's the situation as it is today: There is a building (or two) built and you would like to move it one to the left. You have none of that building in your inventory. You use Q to select it before removing it. This puts a ghost in your hand, since there are none in your inventory. You remove the b...

HI, I just started playing Xander Mod yesterday and I'm having a great time. I've tried other recipe rework mods before, and I can't put my finger on why, but this is the first that's felt this coherent. I have a thing with stories and games where the suspension of disbelief relies on consistency. M...

Do we get 1.1 today? I really want the train stop limits.

My guess would be Tuesday next week. They don't like to release right before the weekend, in case something goes wrong.

God Bless.

i have spent sooooooo many hours trying to make this train thing happen with just flipping stations on and off and it never worked. SOOOOO EXCITED.

Me too man, me too.

Covid is not a relatively deadly flu, but it's not your fault the prevailing religious narrative has decided overreacting to it is the "moral" thing to do. Personally I like the green pollution color, not that other colors wouldn't be good too. It sounds like it would be straightforward fo...

On some of the stuff brought up in the WoW section, I think that it is important to understand WHY they added the tools they did. If for example, you were the only person in your group of friends who plays, or if you aren't very good in chatting, being able to find a group to play this content migh...
