About the only time I've used barrels is AngelBobs sulfuric acid, because it's so commonly used. I made a belt loop, acid barrels going out and splitting off to barrel machines, and a return line for empties right next to it. I don't know if I would have had throughput issues just using pipes, and I...

On a topic of Lua. Did you investigated using LuaJIT instead of normal Lua? It is very compatible with lua scripts and even Lua C APIs, and do provide substantial performance boost in many cases, it also includes very fast interpreter and essentially is never slower than normal Lua. It is supported...

A few relevant mods that are not exactly what you want: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Hexy_AngelBob_Tweaks optionally removes bob's electrolyzers and chemical plants, along with a bunch of other things. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/AngelBob_Better_Concrete does things in the opposite way you want, ...

For the avoidance of doubt, please can you confirm what the exact inputs and outputs of the proposed new Basic Oil Processing recipe is? Is it 100 crude in, 100 petroleum out? Is it 100 crude in, 40 petroleum out? That's in the FFF- 100 crude in, 45 petro out: https://cdn.factorio.com/assets/img/bl...

Generally this is the last 600ish ghosts processed that'll have active alerts. I also have seen up to 1201 ghosts being processed normally at the same time. This seems like a much higher number than 600. How is this possible if the game only handles the 600ish ghosts that sometimes appear to be the...

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Geothermal is close, the drills don't need water but also don't produce steam directly; you need to convert their superheated water to steam first, which requires regular water.

Miniloader mistakenly left in a debug message that should be removed in the latest version.

Like is said the 50 (hyperbole) other topics about this kind of thing, the devs generally don't define science pack prerequisites for multi-level techs like this, to avoid clutter in the tech tree.

If you want to move precisely in the same direction as a belt an automatic disable would still be annoying. So as I see it a toggle definitely would be better. Though making the toggle between fully on and on except when moving with a belt wouldn't be bad at all.

IIRC the default keybinding is different on Mac, try command + right click.

The wiki is not meant to be a repository for blueprints, and so the balancer blueprints were removed. You'll have to go to a dedicated third party site like factorioprints.

To be clear, can you press that combination and get results outside of Factorio? Some keyboards have physical limits of how they recognize simultaneous button presses, due to their underlying design.

To me, this is like if they fixed a typo in a function used by a bunch of mods. It's something that would need to be done sometime , and if not on a major release when all those mods would have to update anyway, than on a minor experimental release is the next best time. Yeah the error message is no...

Sorry to say this 0.17.18 is the worst realize ever. 2 macroscopic bugs found in few minutes of gameplay, never happened before.

I don't know about that, trainpocalypse was very bad. Humorous effects now we look back at it, but bad.

I have seen this before, but I don't remember with what game. I don't think it was Factorio.

To be fair, a lot of apps like forums count each character in the pre-render markup. This is at least partly because in many of those setups markups can be stacked even though they don't have any visual effect (like 500 underline tags on the same text, for an extreme example) and you still have to s...

I don't see a difference between 1st and 2nd animated gif with splitters. I see fully filled belt of fuel, where you inserting plates, two in a row. They fit like ...fffffPfPfff... Splitter takes one from each side and move to output. What else could we expect? Actually I never thought how splitter...

If I'm seeing it right, the chemical plant is connected to the output pipe, which is reserved for light oil.
