Re: Count to 1,000,000

49 is 7^2, and 7x2 = 14, and 14 - 4 equals 10, THE SAME AMOUNT OF LETTERS IN ILLUMINATI! :o :o :o

A sort of game play ethics help

Is it okay to spawn in some oil patches if I am in the situation pictured below? I think it would have been near impossible to get oil and survive on this map. Or do you think that this is missing the point of the game and that you are supposed to try and fail, and not give up? Is cheating ever just...

Trouble loading save into map editor

I wanted to add oil to my Ribbon world in factorio because there was none in sight (yeah yeah its cheating). So I put it into the custom scenario folder but when I loaded it in the map editor it just generated a new world instead of using the save.

So that means they have no purpose in the "normal" game?

Question about hotbar filter

When I press the filter button on an empty slot in my hot bar it opens up a GUI to select the filter. I noticed a few strange items here- under intermediary products there is a coin. Under Military there is a rail gun, a player port, and a computer. What are these things and how do I get them? I've ...

[0.11.12] Worlds are not showing up in "Load game"

My worlds are not showing up under "play --> load game" in the menu. My custom scenarios are not showing up under "map editor --> load map" or "play --> custom scenario" either. I just updated to version 0.11.12. The weird thing is in the directory the worlds are all th...

Good way to spread the game

Play the game at school during your study or free period. People will come by and be interested, and maybe they'll look up the game and buy it! For me, it got quite a few people interested and they probably looked into the game.

Is it just item? don't use it?
Well currently there are not planes in the game so it seems as if you are using a mod. You probably want to mention what mod it is and what version so maybe people familiar with the mod can help you.

Re: Allow toolbar filter to be done with a key

You can change this already in the options. Second page (Inventory), 5 field on the left (In german 'Filter festlegen'). See this picture . Actually, you can't (change it to a key). I have tried and it says that this can only be mouse related. But once you said that I realized I could just set it t...

Allow toolbar filter to be done with a key

I play factorio on a laptop and often don't have my mouse with me (mostly because I am so used to the track pad). I suggest that instead of needing to middle-mouse click in order to filter an item on to the toolbar, you can do a different process: 1. Put desired item in desired slot on toolbar. 2. S...

Re: Waving Gates (Cosmetic Improvement)

People generally think 'the question is answered, I don't need it anymore' without thinking that there may be others with the same question. Ahh that makes sense, so if someone gets the same idea they don't clog up the forums. Still though, in hindsight I think my idea was stupid but I suppose we s...

Re: Waving Gates (Cosmetic Improvement)

Okay, I see your points. Is it possible to delete this? I have been looking and can't seem to find anything that would let me do it on my own. If I can't, can a moderator or someone delete this for me?

Curious

Every time I update Factorio it says the Factorio.exe has stopped working, I am wondering if this is normal for everyone, and if so why? Why doesn't it close down normally like when you exit the game. I guess I'm just a little curious, I know very little about programming or any of that stuff.

Re: Two Simple Questions

The update simply overwrites the old version. Removing the "old version" would remove the update too. ;) Apparently it does not update the uninstall list though. Hint for devs: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7116757/updating-installed-program-version-when-using-binary-patch Thank you ...
