I really like the signal placement aid.

Hopyfully disallowing "wrong" signals does not hinder the gameplay – might be necessary to use when a crossing is changed. Still: How could we ever play without?

Update: Almost works like a charm. Seems that there should be a blacklist for tracked items, one of the sensors recently caught (and deactivated) a logistic robot, meaning that neither the robot would work anymore, nor any trains were controlled.

Fixed the problem by changing line 439 in the control.lua of the sensor to: elseif entity.energy ~= nil and entity.energy > 0 then I guess it was mentioned somewhere here: Rails have a power value (== 0) now and are detected as viable target, so that a sensor does not re-connect to the cargo wagon. ...

There is no error. it is just that the sensor does not detect the train's content once the train has departed and arrived again.

The download was from your attachment.

Fixed for 12.22, broken actuators and sensors with trains. Feel free to let me know if anything else is broken until the mod author returns. Cool, thanks! Do you have this on github or something alike? Edit: Did not work, though. The train is recognized when I first place the sensor, but not after ...

When pointing a sensor to a train cargo it will only work when just installed, if I go to another station and come back it dosn't detect the cargo anymore. Is there a workaround this? I have the same problem: Worked fine in 0.12.19, but does not anymore in 0.12.22. Besides that problem, this mod fi...

I like the light colors in vanilla (used a mod until now, but that's not the same as the light colors were static); also taking the color from the circuit network. There are coloured signals, it is logical to use them. In this sense, I am always for less options in a UI window and more to be built w...

Will there be a release for 0.12.20?

The thing is: writing good software takes time. The guys are doing a great job of making a releasable game that will be fit for steam sales. They even seem to be working on the next features, see FFF. And we even get the intermediary results – otherwise we'd be still stuck on the latest stable relea...

You can always use mods – they come with lots of additional features.

I really like the work on the railway/train UI! *thumbs up!* Instead of setting complicated conditions in a UI window, I'd rather like to be forced to build those on my own; aka: I need an element that allows me to control the train based on network conditions (included) and then some sensor for the...

We know.

Okay, I'll watch out for a fix then.

Keep up the good work!

Factorio crashes with this version. :( Using a current Debian stable with an Intel graphics adapter. tux@pingviinit:~/bin/factorio_0.12.13/bin/x64$ ./factorio 0.000 2015-10-24 20:50:48; Factorio 0.12.13 (Build 17141, linux64) 0.000 Operating system: Linux 0.000 Program arguments: "./factorio&qu...

I'm a bit amazed by your biomass-to-cellulose production ratio: Mine is never as good, i.e. I need much more biomass production compared to what I get in cellulose.

Thanks for creating this nice mod. :) However, it does not work for me: after creating about 5000 images Factorio just quits (0.11.16 with some mods). It looked like everything of the base had been covered for one zoom level. I could also observe that the memory usage suddenly went up. The Factorio ...

Ah, thank you!

I will try it out and upload my current map.

That's right, but nobody suggested a solution using vanilla (although I'd prefer it). As I wrote earlier: liquid handling, as it is now, is very basic. I remember reading something about upgrades to the liquid system, but I believe this was limited to smart containers and pumps or valves in the sens...

Well it more general than a boiler. It would be a multi-structured object that allow heating of any fluid to specified temperature withing the range specified by their prototypes. That's why it is call a heater and not a boiler as sometimes you might not want to boil the liquid. I see. Yes, that wo...

I had considered adding an electric liquid heater. Maybe that is something useful? Wouldn't that be just an electric boiler? I like the idea, but thinking about it my lava example was a bit faulty there: While lava has a temperature, it also has a "temperature identity", meaning that ther...
