Can you specify your use-case for that? Then we can explain you how you can achieve it with the current trains.

WTF.

-10 green coal + 5 red coal is then -5 coal (75% green, 25% red). Mathematicaly interesting to calculate with this.

Why can't the same happen with landfill? Make entity ghosts placeable when there are tile ghosts that would result in the entity being placeable and then have bots wait for tile ghosts to be placed before placing entities. The answer is eventually A) because there is so much more landfill to be pla...

Ah, yes, so important. Recently I was curious how many activated but unused libs I had been running and made me the work to go through all mods if they have been installed by a dependency. The answer was 4. That’s a problem, because startup time significantly decreased after removing.

From the sight of UX design the whole process is a mess.
And yes, if the clipboard contains a blueprint it could display the most important meta information. You don’t need to see it. Or you need to see it only, to make sure you copied the right one. But who else than a developer does that?

The language files are maintained very much by the community. So I guess if someone wants to create a new language he/she just could ask wube for it: https://crowdin.com/project/factorio

And I guess also, that there will be no much interest from wube to add additional languages without need.

I’m sure we already discussed it and came to the current solution, because of that cases. Actually something that has been requested several times that would solve the issue is being able to : - read the locomotive's contents (and add conditions on it obviously). Optimally, if I also could read the...

That could be the next step. And could be only done, if this is implemented. First it’s more important, that the item color doesn’t change over time. That’s needs some kind of mapping item-type <-> color-table-entry that doesn’t change over time and with mods. And I shouldn’t say color-table, becaus...

Ok, how should the inserter know, if it needs to put the item on the ground or hold it in the air until the next inserter grabs it out of its hand? What should happen, if 2 or 3 inserter are pointing to the same tile? Who is served first? And some more questions…

There are similar threads:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=87624 Request: Keyboard shortcut to bring up the Last Selected Blueprint
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=87386 Pressing escape while in a blueprint should bring you up one layer.

Would you mind, if I move this thread to viewtopic.php?f=6&t=62564 Production tab: persist selected timespan
and rename the thread to “Persist view of stats and tech view”?

Well, there are really some mods, that helps with that problem. And using them makes clear: there is no “best way” of doing that.

I found, that I made a similar suggestion here viewtopic.php?p=495581#p495581

You know you can make your own deconstruction planner if you add for the filter the rocks and all types of trees. Stupid, but a good workaround.

Agreed, but off-topic.

I think this won’t happen, because it would be a constant source of avoidable mistakes. Instead I recommend to automate your setup, so that you don’t have to reset 6our chest by hand and just push a switch to turn that on/off. And have you seen the small switch inside the combinator, where you alrea...

Agreed. What I would change instead is, that each item has a consistent color/look all over the game. Because I think that’s the most irritating thing of all.

The combination of color and different staggered lines or other things would give any item a unique look.

The idea is still very underdeveloped and half-baked (which is why I'm not posting this in the Ideas & Suggestions section),

That’s sad, because there you could have found a lot similar ideas to yours.
