Hello Wube devs.

I'm very glad you decided to rename the Factorio 1.x Stack inserter to Bulk.

A follow-up suggestion: let the new 2.0 Stack inserter be green, and let the Bulk inserter be white.
This way, the Stack inserter will retain both its name and color.

Exactly like they interact with belts now, why not? The hands phase right through the walls of assemblers but you aren't worrying about that. It's a non-issue. Ok, let's say. =) But then how to evaluate the compression, content and proper sides of belt? Do I have copper cables, are these copper cab...

Enclosed Belts:

Great idea for Space belts (items will not fly from it).
Earendel, come and get it!

Hou-hou-hou!
We really need that snowy sprites and Christmas Tree in-game!

You have windows 11 N, which specifically excludes media related things - which Factorio needs. https://www.reddit.com/r/WindowsHelp/comments/qk4ot7/rtkngui64exe_system_error_resampledmodll_was_not/ The problem is known and rare, but maybe add some check when launching Factorio to avoid this? And s...

Tip from Reddit:
Need to install Media Pack. Can do this by opening up Powershell as Administrator and running this cmdlet:

DISM /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Media.MediaFeaturePack~~~~0.0.1.0

Restart computer and you can now get rid of that error.

And one more suggestion: add hotkey (i.e. Ctrl+Click) to place both sides (input and output) of underground belt/pipe at maximum range at once.

Another Friday teaser.
I'll burn a chair before I get to 2.0

Hop aboard the 1.1.100 hype train!

I will wait for 1.1.111

Suggestion: add an additional key for station/train ping, for example "Ctrl+Click", to open exactly the coordinates of the place, as with a normal ping.

Now every week when I read FFF, I think, "wow, this is the coolest thing ever."
Wube meanwhile: Ha ha, sit down and hold ALL my beers, we have many more Fridays ahead of us.

I think OP wants to set their character's color once and for all in the game settings so that in every subsequent map they start, it will be remembered.

You absolutely right.

Suggestion: add the color of the player character to the game settings, for example, in the “Interface” section.
Many people play with their specific character color, but every time the map is started, the player's color is random.
Add a Character Color option with Random and Selected Color options.

At first, I double checked this isn't April's Fools. No, it's Sep 08.

Now imagine what will happen on April Fools' Day FFF

5 years have passed, is there a ray of hope for a fix? Nothing has changed about the complexity of any kind of fix to my knowledge. What is the reason for this function not working? What function is used when comparing strings? Standard or custom? It seems that the solution is on the surface, but n...

Sorry for the duplicate, I searched before creating the topic, honestly

It is sad that after 5 years this inconvenience has not been corrected.

Hello. There is a bug/feature in the game: search in Russian is case sensitive, while in English it is insensitive. Examples: Search "stone" in Russian - no results https://i.imgur.com/n7UPxFu.png "Stone" starts with a capital letter - there are results https://i.imgur.com/QWmb4q...
