Fluids as fuel?

I must've missed that part. Awesome I'm now looking forward to this feature even more.

You kinda made a loop there I think, and neither have a solution. It's not a solution, it's the suggestion to combine these two suggestions. I thought it is clear, cause it makes sense, to have an interface which enables either vehicles or the character or its modular armor to a power grid. And I s...

This is actually not a bad idea.
it meshes well with the electricity-transferring floor previous suggested in another thread, and would add some nice variety to the gameworld.

...with some tweaks, of course. Grass shouldn't absorb that much pollution at all.

Land mines work for this. They do cost quite a bit to maintain, though, if you have large fields of them. I'm doing this in my latest map. I use only gun turrets and mines to defend my walls, and I only rarely got red alerts up until Behemoth evolution... they kinda don't care that much about your d...

How many I-started-on-a-small-island threads does this make? We've gotta be above the 30:s or so by now, right? And 29 of them have a comment from you complaining about their frequency? Actually, no. I chose you! ;) Seriously, though. Don't take it personally. Others have done it before me, and oth...

Edit my initial post, typo. What i mean was visual clue similar to refineries (the flame). So, even when overlay info is enabled, we can see the chemical plan is working or not. Assembler etc didn't need additional visual clue, we can tell they working because inserters is working. I like this. I'm...

No offense, but with the zillion existing subforums it's already near-impossible to find anything. Please don't

This poll reflects only the majority of the community. I think that there is a false assumption. There are many more casual players (who still enjoy the game and love it just as much) who don't come here to the forum to discuss it, and their polling choices might not line up the same way as a playe...

In a way, I agree. This should be a possibility, though I can imagine it'd be quite a bit of work to implement.

I can't really relate to this at all. I tried the campaign once as an afterthought, but the Freeplay is where I spend 99.99% of my Factorio time. My early game motivation was having seen the trailer for the game, witnessed what was possible to do, and then went ahead and spent money on it. From this...

The problem I see with random research options in a game like Factorio is that the game isn't built around re-playability as a core feature. NOW don't get me wrong I'm not saying you can't replay nor that replaying holds no value; but rather that the game allows itself to expand toward larger and l...

People always get sick at the wrong moment

I've been home sick for the last 11 days. I know the feeling.

True, but ramps can also be used by cars and tanks. Flexibility is important

I like the idea lancar but you should be able to research out of it like if buildings use 20% more power you need to do 4 researches of 5% power reduction before it gives a bonus Well, regardless of the levels I think it's important to keep it random . Otherwise you lose the excitement factor that ...

I'm thinking that when you've researched everything else, a unique research tree pops up which isn't predictable of what it does. Instead, when researched, you get a random bonus to something. Like, suddenly your rockets are 30% harder hitting, or your solar panels produce 30% more power, or inserte...

Grats are in order, indeed

Now aim for the 1m mark. You can do it, I feel it in my lobes.

Nobody wants to compete with Fallout 4 in November, so several pushed their games to February... which makes that a bad time to release as well. January might actually be the best choice if it has to be "soon". And noone wants to compete with XCom 2 aswell, in February. Doesn't matter whe...

I think a queen making the hives near it produce & send biters at a near continuous pace would be interesting. Suddenly one of your walls will be under constant attack, with no letting up, drawing ammo (or power) like crazy, making it a threat you HAVE to deal with fairly soon or your supply sys...

On the loading screen I would like to see how my last base has been evolving through the time. Something like timelapse. Like... the loading screen showing screenshots of the map, perhaps recorded by autosave when it hits? Could be nice, though the pictures would have to be pruned by the system to ...
