That makes total sense. I somehow got fixated on chains tying to the later normal signals and didn't even consider they also work as standard signals, if the block in front of them is blocked then they go red like normal. Thanks.

What language is your program written in? I was guessing Java but wanted to be sure.

You have a train depot with 3 platforms for unloading. There are 2 tracks coming and you connect them vise-versa. You have something like this: DEPOT S S S | | | |\|/| \ V / V V | | C C | | INCOMING S= Normal Signal C = Chain Signal | \ / V = Tracks If any of the S ignals is Green, the C hains also...

Looking at them though, it struck me that we still have only one tier of them. Shouldn't we have several, of several techlevels, like with other things? Yellow, red, blue, for example. We only have yellow now. More turret options are planned for 0.13, but we had to start by consolidating the existi...

Just came here because of this myself. Screenshot:

With the massive optimizations coming, it sounds like this won't be a concern any more.

Additionally, if you hook up your bases main power supply to the central electric pole (instead of the two solar panels) this setup becomes an on demand power supply, useful for bug attacks. When your power consumption exceeds production, the whole assembly turns on The best way to do that is to co...

Indeed, they and Quill18 and likely some other larger streamers/youtuber's I don't follow probably resulted in a lot of sales when they did their first video series.

Yes. The goal is to make it playable even with 1s latency. However the latency hiding won't be perfect. This involves some dirty internal tricks, therefore we decided to go for most common actions. Things like moving, building, mining, etc. They will be (unless there is a collision) instantaneous. ...

If I have the game running, load OBS, and go to my Factorio stream template and do Preview Stream, Factorio immediately crashes. Crash log attached. I've streamed in the past without problems. Edit: As a workaround, OBS doing Window Capture seems fine. Previously I was using Game Capture, which caus...

Great, thanks.

When game was reloading after auto update, it tossed up the crash dialog and asked me to upload this log file. However the game did load all the way to menu and loads fine when I load it fresh.

Thanks. I believe you meant 11.15 in your post though, not 11.5.

I dont know why but in every version of factorio i first need to connect to a friend and then leave so he can connect to me as long as i didn't connect to them they cant connect to me and turning my antivirus and firewall off doesn't help and i also cant connect to 1 of my other friends so he cant ...

I would personally like an end game that makes me want to keep building larger and larger. Maybe the space port is just a way to ship back huge expensive items to the home world. So your score is how much you can export per minute.

This thread is brilliant. I just discovered it. Thank you for doing these tests and providing all of the examples and images.

Some settings were changed. The mods need updated. Check the prior release thread for the required changes.

Sounds like the same problem.

In a situation where time stops and the user interface still works, is there any debugging console commands or something I can do to assist?
