I got some blueprints with requested items. It works similar as train fuel or modules. Could be fuel in a nuclear reactor or ammo in a turret.

It's called Brennstoff in Zügen (fuel in trains). It should be called just fuel (or whatever it is), without mentioning a train.
For ammo it's inconsistent ...

insane .. love it!

I never used icons in stop names, making that a necessity sounds like a terrible idea

Instead of a fixed number of signals from 0-9 I would recommend a tag/name based system.

True! I like variables with descriptive names

After loading the autosave, I recognized Shift-Ö opens some Discord window.
It did not before, seems it's a conflict

I tried to give my train station the name "Roh-Öl" (german for crude oil).
After typing in the Ö factorio does not accept any input. Nothing works. No Escape, no click somewhere, no Alt-F4. Game seems to keep running, but it does not recognize any input. Bild_2023-10-31_034916872 ...

wow 4 yrs later :D


no Bug
there is a gap in X and Y direction between these 2 roboports - thats why you don't see a connection line.
that there is a connection from behind doesn't matter


wrong. This suggests there are 2 different bot networks, while it's one.

These roboports are connected, but the dashed line is missing.
I have built them with a blueprint.

When relocating one of them, or delete and build again manually, the dashed line appears:

Never assume it's running on full load 100%.

Add some logic, does not need to be very complex, just replace 1 roboport or two. Sadly I can't tell you how exactly because I'm not at my home now, but it's possible to make a very compact circuit, smart enough to start itself without human interaction ...

Yo Drury, first of all thank you for your posts over all the years, I ALWAYS enjoy reading from you so much. And specifically this post https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=97937#p97937 is something I will probably remember forever.

Welcome back from christmas holidays and thanks for the update!

welcome Lou!

1.1.6:

This bug exists for a looong time. even pre-1.0 noticed this sometimes. could never reproduce. Never seen double modules before, but random empty beacons.
I'm now trained to double-check if all beacons got modules when finalizing blueprints.

well, do the tutorial :)

You have the freedom of choice, how to play this game. If you don't like to be in a hurry, turn off biters or enable peace mode.
Congrats for your first lab running. You could turn your spaghetti into a blueprint (make a copy) for later games, then move on to green science ...
