BTW the logic appears to be there, when you lay down some blue prints over cliffs if you have some cliff explosives the robots will clear the way before putting down the given entity that needed to go there.

Thanks .. I will hold out hope that the statement "not written yet" to mean that its being considered for some release in the near/far future.

Is there a reason why we can not place a blueprint with "landfill" tiles under entities and have the robot's place both down one after the other in a single stamp of a blueprint ?

Currently I have to stamp the a blueprint down twice, the first time to get the bot's to fill in "water" tiles with ...

Will the 200 character limit be increase on train stations? Its going to get used up fast with all the Rich Text people are starting to use.

Would using some "Accumulators" on the miner side of the power switch allow the miners power down gracefully into an inactive state ?

I am experimenting with RSO and a "Rail World" config. I used the same exchange string for both maps. The vanilla map seems to be more spread out as you would expect for a "Rail World", the RSO map I am getting wider ore patches and seeing them more frequently than in vanilla.

Vanilla Rail World ...

I had assumed that Windows would auto-update my NVIDA drivers, so had not checked how far behind I was.

Now that I have updated (419.17) and have used the NVIDA game optimization tool my GPU usage is down to 15-20% during play time.

Still having the same problem using 0.17.2 ... 4k monitor 100% GPU and LAG, 1080p monitor 10-20% GPU no LAG.

My GPU is running at 100% in full screen mode on my 4k monitor. When I change to window mode the GPU drops to 10%, but the window occasionally blanks in and out rapidly.

When moving my avatar around the game on my 4k monitor (with G-Sync) enabled I and finding my avatar keeps running in the direction I was going without touching any keys on my keyboard.

I am using a PC (Windows 10 Home edition)

I am ALSO getting this on my PC, I have a 4k monitor with G-Sync .. when I play on my 1080p monitor response is fine.

You talked about enabling a vehicle grid in your trains
.. In Bob's mods he has an overdrive engine for increasing speed which goes in his grids.

It might also be an idea to use a "Capacitor Module" as the fuel source, and have research progresses new 'Capacitor Modules' which would unlock ...

If there was a way to up vote this idea, I know there would be a lot of votes from the people I join in MP games.

Another idea would be an Admins notification tab, where they could send messages to everyone. If you have been on some of the RedMew maps they have had to hand craft method of getting ...

I wonder if this could be linked to "LuaEntity::item_requests" so that the bot's could auto refuel the burner

What happens to the walls if someone uses cliff explosives ?

I thought mini-loaders use invisible inserters which impact UPS. An alternate option is to use DeadlockLoaders.

Since there is grass on top of the cliff's I think your going to end up with biter bases being spawned up there.

I wonder if "Cliff Walls" that you propose could block Rockets being lauched over them. I recently played a community map with this mod and you could wipe out the biters with some nuke rockets by being on the other side of one of the void walls.

The mod PickerExtened, has a tool that allows you to delete ore patches if that would help your OCD.
