(Was the first iteration of Creative Mod(e) before /editor was a thing?) Map Editor used to only be accessible from the main menu until 0.17, so yes, there was no /editor when the original was released. And even then there wasn't any electric energy interface or infinity chests or the like. There a...

Never used Editor Extensions so no idea. It's Creative Mod, but (should be) faster. That's all I can say.

What? I've made an unofficial update to Creative Mod to deal with some of the issues arising from how old and out of date it's code base is. For instance, the void energy type was added in 0.17, but the mod still relies on burner energy types refilled by LUA scripting to keep entities powered. The ...

As you can see, rather than having a single load/unloading lane that is empty 99% of the time, I have combined several stops in the same lane. I do occasionally get a little backed up when two trains happen to get summoned at the same time, but it resolves very quickly thank you rapid unloading tim...

Tank flamethrower was added to help clear trees, not combat. Thats why it doesn't behave the same as the handheld thrower - it's designed to not start massive, uncontrollable fires.

If you place a blueprint with more jobs than you have bots the rest will be performed by the general network if there is one. The general bots cannot take stuff from your inventory though so you are either misunderstanding what is happening or the bots that come are personal bots that you abandoned...

Regarding chest performance: Filters on containers were added in 1.1.62 for mods to configure Added support for container entities with filters by using inventory_type = "with_bar" or "with_filters_and_bar". That's not how I interpreted that. That sounds to me like something the...

Presumably they just didn't bother making a separate way to track mod usage since they already had the list of loaded mods. And it's not like you can't just cheat by editing the game files, or the save game. Also, its just a list of things, not like it actually effects anything. There are tools to g...

The game doesn't track if mods were used on a save, only if they're currently active. Console commands get recorded permanently.

The achievement list in game will tell you if the game is using the modded list or not.

After some quick testing in game I think I know what happened. Your train has already 'left' the station, thus it's not using up the 1 slot limit for the station, allowing another train to route to it. Notice its status is 'Heading to Copper Ore PU' in the station's train listing - if it was waiting...

Is the return true or false from the transfer call?

First step would be to dust it, then worry about thermal paste if that doesn't take care of it.

Are you thinking of Dark Matter Replicators? Replicators can make items using just electricity, and the textures for them was basically just the vanilla lab. Resources required tier 1 replicators, more complicated items required higher tiers. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/dark-matter-replicators The...

graphics are not intensive and a low to mid video card is plenty.

That's not entirely true. While it generally doesn't require much power, it can use a LOT of VRAM, which low end cards generally aren't going to have. 2GB is good. If you're running mods it can use a lot more.

The prototypes for boilers and assembling machines are very different - you can't just copy all the data and change the type to have it work. Boilers have their sprites defined in a structure property, assembling machines use an animation property, which have differences in how they are laid out.

While the zip file does have it's own separate game data directory, it still defaults to the same user data location, so that won't help, either, unless you edit the config-path.cfg file in the game data directory first to point to a different location before even firing it up. Windows version stan...

A player in single player mode has uninstalled (i.e. removed all files of) mod A. Mod A has just been turned off in a multiplayer game when a new player who hasn't installed the mod joins. In both cases, on_configuration_changed would still contain the info that there is an old, but no new version ...

Looks like you misspelled 'line_length' in all your attempts as 'lines_length'. That means the game is assuming these are all on one line.

You would think that will all the resources spent on porting this game to other platforms like switch (much different than pc, different control scheme, less powerful, architecture, etc) and mac, that could have been spent working on the actual expansion. If you actually read the FFF you'd know tha...

That's not a bug. Catalysts aren't included in production statistics, as they aren't really being produced or consumed. There are other reports about it around: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=69934&p=425349&hil ... st#p425349
