Re: [gfx] [16.2] Map colors: major visibility issues
Has this been worked on? The reason I ask is because it feels like stone patches are now much brighter on the map than they once were.

Re: Friday Facts #230 - Engine modernisation
I can't even bring myself to tear apart a factory to fix it, much less tear apart the rendering engine to a game that's been in the works for as long as this one. I would have shrieked in horror and ran away from your office screaming if you asked me to do that. Bravo, Factorio devs, for being made ...

Re: Friday Facts #227 - Rendering, Trees & Scenario talk
First and foremost, alter the "Sandbox" scenario to spawn a character, please. An accelerated start scenario would be nice. Something similar to those quickstart mods out there that allows us to skip the burner phase of the game. * Give us enough starting gear to make a basic electrical ba...

Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)
... So the first thing I would break however, is bots scaling linear. The most gentle sollution in my eyes is just having diminishing returns on all bots speed within one logistics network. The more bots are in the network, the slower they fly. This would make bots better at smaller segregated netw...

Re: [16.12] Water gets much more frequent as you go out
That might be it. I wonder what the map looks like out to 10K.

Re: [16.12] Water gets much more frequent as you go out
2,000 tiles isn't really far enough to tell, and changing the terrain settings so that only dirt and water spawn are changing the variables quite substantially I am pretty sure that there is nothing in the code specifying specifically that water will increase with distance, and that it is just the ...

Re: [16.12] Water gets much more frequent as you go out
Are you certain this happens on all maps? How far out are you searching? Are you sure it is not just some larger scale variation in the amount of water? Good question. I have no way to know for certain on initial inspection. Looks like I'm going to have to do a science. I'm going to repeatedly gene...

[16.12] Water gets much more frequent as you go out
Not sure if this counts as a bug or not, but it seems like with the way water is generated, it gets a lot more frequent and larger as you get further out from the center of the map, regardless of the frequency setting. This is similar to how ore patches seem to generate. As someone who likes the amo...

Re: Friday Facts #221 - 0.16 is out
I have never particularly needed my factories to be frame perfect, but recognize the use in compression, particularly for mining. Mining a patch feels weird and uneven without a good way to compress things. That being said, I have no objections to seeing compression go. I agree that underneathies sh...

Re: [16.2] Map colors: major visibility issues
I don't know if I'd call this a bug so much as I would a mistake. It definitely needs fixing. The color of stone on the minimap in that screenshot is 127, 111, 85 (RGB). The color of the area around the small patch on the main map is 123, 109, 82 (RGB again) I'm no colorist, but that is WAAAAAAAY to...

[0.16] You can drag the map preview off the screen
This hides the buttons. Now yes, you can just hit escape, but it feels kind of odd that I can just drag that window around.
