Re: Friday Facts #397 - Factoriopedia
So happy reading about Factoriopedia! One suggestion, which you may have already considered, having bi-directional links between relevant Factoriopedia sections and "tips and tricks" pages. For example, the "tips and tricks" for power poles, or trains, or liquids might link to th...

Re: Friday Facts #394 - Assembler flipping and circuit control
As a mod developer, this FF got me thinking. So it would make sense that 1.0 mods would not be forward compatible with 2.0, but will 2.0 mods be 1.0 compatible? Will it be possible to make 2.0 mods that also "just work" for 1.0? For example, as a mod developer for 2.0, will I need to check...

Re: Friday Facts #393 - Putting things on top of other things
I dunno, gonna be honest this is the first one that's had me kinda worried. Now a 2 wagon train can outperform 8 wagon trains. This feels like a very big move towards scale up rather than scale out, and scaling out has always been where Factorio's emergent complexity, the part that makes the game s...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0
Super awesome FFF! π Also love all of the ideas. And an extra plus one to some clocks, maybe a mode of the constant combinator, that can tell: β surface/planet time of day (in ticks) β total game time (in ticks) (to allow sync between planets/surfaces/spaceships) β daylight sensor for current surfac...

Re: Option to make server wait for slowest client
Maybe this could be regulated via some type of permission (if anti-griefing is desired). The server could yield to users/clients with a permission, but not others. I'm not sure if this, or probably technical limitations make this prohibitive. π€ Out of curiosity (I know it isn't likely to change the ...

Re: Modding: Errormsg on storage-chests
I'm a mod author encountering this message and I'm not sure what changed in 1.1, or how I should correct it for my mod. I'm looking at my prototype (see below) and I don't see anything related to "request slot". { animation = { ... }, close_sound = { filename = "__base__/sound/metalli...

[1.0.0] Crash: TransportBelt::drawBase
Got this crash log. Multiplayer game with friend was playing on my map. He was looking at electrical graphs and the game crashed for him. I'm not sure this was the cause of the crash. My game didn't do anything bad except notice that his client wasn't sending network packets anymore; and disconnecte...

Allow "OR" prerequisites in technology prototype
Instead of Technology#prerequisites always being an AND requirement, I would love to see an option/flag for OR, at the prototype level. I could envision something like a flag that just switches it from AND to OR (which would be sufficient for my needs), or something more complicated . Sorry if this ...

Runtime Transparency?
Hello Engineers! 𧑠I was look at Types/Animation and Types/Sprite hoping to find a way to make existing Animations and Sprites transparent (or more transparent). I noticed that both Animations and Sprites have: apply_runtime_tint blend_mode premul_alpha Given their similarities, I would hope these A...

Sticker effects on 'other' entities
Prototype/Sticker says that it only effects Prototype/Unit , Prototype/Character and Prototype/Car entities. I would love to see an API for stickers to also effect buildings / turrets / structures / etc. In particular, I would love to have stickers that can modify the attack speed of turrets and wo...
