I appreciate how dedicated you have been to confirming whether or not this still exists in various releases, nice work!

What did I do? Used a deconstruction planner from editor mode to remove rails with trains on them. What happened? All trains were removed, all straight rails were removed, curved rails with no trains on top were removed, but curved rails without trains on them were not removed. What did I expect to...

Note that the cloned rocket does actually have the cargo copied into it, it just doesn't retain the fact it should launch. To make it launch, unchecking and rechecking the "launch automatically with cargo loaded" checkbox will fix it after cloning.

I was using the map editor, and I copy pasted a part of the design I had been working on. I realized it was a mistake, and hit CTRL+Z to undo the paste. The game crashed when that happened. I was using creative mod and creative world plus mods when this happened. Dump + logs are attached. EDIT: I tr...

Do you have another station named "oil load" on a different rail network? If that's the case, it's not a bug but is intended behavior because the station is enabled but is in fact unreachable.

So the sideloading case behaves exactly like the case where the inserter dropping on the belt and the inserter removing from the belt are on opposite sides. Makes sense, but good to see the confirmation!

Reddit post in question, in case anyone seeing this wants to see that as well for context.

Blastodial: this video shows some additional weirdness with belts, though I haven't tested red belts + blue inserters in my test:

What I tried: I was testing various spacings of inserters and chests interacting with blue belts. I rotated one of the setups 180 degrees. What happened: The behavior changed after rotation in the case where inserters putting on the belt and pulling off of it are on the same side of the belt. What ...

While this one is related, I think it still is a bug because it allows fluid mixing. I agree that just allowing non sulfuric acid fluids is fine.

Here is a video that shows it better: https://youtu.be/jUuhfBhFQ80

This removed the possibility to do ghost-rail-building without the remove-obstacles, but since it seems to be almost useless, we consider it to be worth the simplification. This isn't almost useless at all! It's especially good when trying to navigate through cliffs (prior to cliff explosives) or d...

This might be an instance of the issue described in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=66973&p=408544&hil ... er#p408875

What I tried: Setting Ore intensity in editor to a large value by typing into the text box. What happened: Value was reset to 8000. What I expected to happen: I expected it to accept the higher value the same way the game's other textboxes do. Making patches with ore values in the millions with onl...

For what it's worth, she died a few minutes into her next play session due to not having automated turrets sufficiently and getting overrun by biters when they ran out of ammo and destroyed her iron mine. But she liked it enough she decided to buy the game and start her own, so it's a win I suppose ...

What did I do?

Attempt to copy/paste the recipe from an assembler onto an infinity chest.

What happened?

Nothing.

What did I expect to happen?

I expected to be able to paste the assembler recipe onto the infinity chest and have it populate the filters like it does on the requester chest.

Didn't see this thread before I posted this morning. I posted my wife's first experiences in this thread.

Hello, I got my wife to try the campaign last night. This was her first time playing Factorio, other than one brief attempt at the campaign in 0.16 when she was too tired to get into it that only lasted 5 minutes or so. Some background on her: She's been really into minecraft for the last 6 months. ...

Accept ridiculously huge junction exits allowing maximum throughput. That's what I did with my original version; made everything 125 tiles or thereabouts long. It does get a bit large. Using waypoints instead would allow maximum throughput without the huge exits. That's why this mildly inconvenient...

Slightly derailing this thread, but that post is extremely cool, and I wish I had seen it sooner! Sounds like you and RattlemBones are doing something very similar to what I came up with, with attaching metadata to the trains and then doing stuff based on that; just with a different type of metadata...
