Sounds horrible. You can't carry fluids around so you would have to barrel them and then place an unbarreling pump somewhere and flood the pipe. And then you have a pipe filled with cleaner fluid. Souds like "not a quick solution for the user"? Sounds good. This is why I love Factorio. An...

How about a special "cleaner" fluid? It would "anihilate" any other fluid on contact. It would be damn expensive. It would be a headache to deliver it into location of accident. Maybe even it would have limited shelf life. Sounds good

I'd like to support a change in this direction. One savegame (exchange string) should not - by default - overwrite the savegames of another. It looks like simple and effective solution. I think such override could be possible with an additional warning window "are you really really really sure...

You can add an extra condition to the train schedule: AND time passed (30s). Depart signal will be ignored for that time and train will have enough time to unload, thereby turning off that signal.

Counting stops as signals, since they are also directional.

No, stops doesn't count as signals. Just tested. Works fine without any signals.

Thanks

Great! It works

How to stop it?

That only works for short / non-forked pipes. The pump will take out most but some 0.00001 fluid will move around the pipes taking random (or predictable / build order dependent?) forks and never end up in the pump. You're right. Small mistakes are easy to fix. Big mistakes makes big pain :mrgreen:...

Thank you for this listing, and... what to do next? I've never run any code in Factorio before. Give me please further instructions or some topic to read.

I want to log several signals from circuit network into the file in every tick. Maybe someone could make a mod for this. Why this mod: I develop complex circuit and I have made its algorithmic model outside of Factorio to test various approaches and coefficients, visualize results and dependencies e...

1. Isolate problematic pipeline segment.
2. Connect the pipe to storage tank via pump.
3. Wait 10 second or so.
4. Destroy the tank.
5. Profit.

I want 64b arithmetic too. My numbers are not so big, but I use various mathematical formulas and sometimes there are large intermediate results inside.

Despite our brains are working more on a logarithmic scale, I find it very difficult to read a logarithmic graph. I can understand it, but it needs significant effort and continuous translation, whereas regular linear scale reads by itself. As long as default graphs are linear and people choose exp...

That's close to 17h45, on average, per day, every day, for the whole year. It's insane

You can leave the game running overnight . White science mining gives much more fun than altcoin mining

Pump moves: 200 u on first tick 80 u on 2nd tick 100 u after that My experiments shows that pump fluid dynamics is slightly more complex. Once pump has stopped, it needs to sleep at least 3-4 ticks to be able to restart by "standard" sequence. If we have 1 tick delay, pump moves: 200 80 1...

Non-colliding biters looks good. How about a mix of biters and spitters? Will biter run through a spitter that just stopped to spit?
How about different sizes of biters that attact with different speed, will they run through each other?

Wiki says light oil gives +5% damage comparing to heavy oil. I think 1/20 difference is negligible. Just look at this proportion: ooooooooooooooooooox. Compare “x” to “o”. It is not worth to bother, use any of them and boost Refined flammables research. I use crude oil, and I'm happy.

Does it come with a magnifying glass?

Do you need a magnifying glass to see pixels in the display?

The standard 4>>4 balancer, you show in the picture, is not input balanced. Never was. It's input balanced, output balanced and throughput unlimited, three in one. I'll not dispute about this, it works and I use it for ages. nother thing is, I don't see how the inserters simulate uneven consumption...

• Fixed splitter input flipping mechanism. (74273)

It seems this splitter bug is fixed too. Now balancers are great again
