The reactor in the starting base appears to be misaligned with the grid by about half a tile. I was going to build my radar next to it, and that's when I noticed.

I hit the same thing. I found a workaround though, which is to build a turret closer to your base (next to the iron ore patch worked for me), which does count toward the mission completion.

The difference is the improved personal equipment allows you to personally craft the recipes it shows; I don't think this one is actually a bug. Prior to that tech, you need an assembly machine to make intermediates.

You have train stations and power lines running from the station to the miners. Couldn't you just insert a power switch that turns on power when a train is at the station?

From what I've read elsewhere unpowered buildings consume more update time than active but idle ones.

Makes sense, thanks.

Yes it is, if the value is a constant 8 it's full througput, if thoughput isn't full than it will fall to 7 or below. No that is detecting that the belt is full. That says nothing about throughput on the belt. Admittedly I've never needed to measure throughput as such, so I'm not sure when it would...

Won't be balanced across chests when unloading though.

https://i.imgur.com/FRbXMAc.jpg As can be seen in the above screenshot, inserters ready to load into a train go inactive when there isn't a train present. Depleted miners go into inactive state. However the mining drills (that still have ore) that are ready to direct-load into the train do not go i...

Since you're adding cliff explosives support to construction bots, is bot placed landfill going to be a thing in 0.17 as well? I recently built a train across an ocean, and that was an experience that could have been way better if shift-clicking my rail blueprint had placed landfill under it. I know...

I don't know anything about texture rendering, but I do work with MPEG video regularly for my job. For those unfamiliar with it, one of the key things that MPEG video compression does (as compared to just image compression algorithms) is to perform difference operations between frames and only rende...

While we're talking about train schedule QoL improvements, can we add the ability to copy paste individual sections of train schedules? In conjunction with the above ability to rename items in the schedule, this would make it a lot nicer to build multiple trains with similar, but complicated schedu...

This is great news, but I have a few questions: So I decided that we should extend blueprints to work with trains as well. Can we add cars/tanks/modded vehicles to blueprints also? Both of the trains in the blueprint will have the "Iron Mine X" -> " Smelting" schedule setup. Once...
