So a little useless, but still fun.

There's already mod for that by Klonan.

Correct

Stupid me, didn't realize this was posted in "Non-game changing"

Is this visual only ? Not altering vanilla power/damage/speed ? I hope so.

No, if that idea is implemented is horrible. Making the robot do the work, while it's cool it's not usable until we research logistic robot speed 5 (and it's expensive) Also making plenty of robot in early game is also not feasible for many player. So it will be useless feature, because FARL turn in...

:D :lol: Yes right, sorry I don't speak English. [the imperfection of machine translation systems] I want the fog back on the map. No need to run around the starting area. The ability to see available resources and enemy bases around. If that is the case, why don't make use of the map string ? - St...

Not only that, but the vanilla at the default were simply too close to each other and too small. Either we build multiple outpost that really small, or really-really big. Kinda chaotic on bigger scale. Currently I'm quite successful to mimic RSO, thank to those hint posted earlier. The problem is, i...

Can we have a wood floor? The "asset" is already there (kinda), just need floor texture. http://i.imgur.com/PsiBRdj.png So why not ? Speed : Slower than stone But stone is already slow enough, so perhaps in overall there will be increase on current value for stone and concrete. Basically w...

The hardest one to understand is frequency because it actually affects both distance between patches and size of patches. Lower Frequency: Ore patches farther apart AND bigger. Higher Frequency: Ore patches closer together AND smaller. This is somewhat counter intuitive as it feels like frequency s...

480kW, wiki typo i guess. The main page is correct though : https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?title=Basic_Beacon Edit : Ah, Koub already replying the answer. Anyway i did some test,at the very minimum (1 refineries, 3 chemical), plus 8 beacon with speed modules 3 (total 16), plus speed modules in ...

If you can surround a single depleted oil field with 8 beacon, you can actually get 36 or 32.x oil/min on that single oil field. As reported here : https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/3laat4/calculating_output_from_depleted_oil_wellsspeed/ But I'm not tested it just yet whether the energy usa...

So how many 0.1/s wells do you need to feed a steam engine via (refining+cracking+)solid fuel, optionally with speed/efficiency modules? Depends on your petroleum/light/heavy factory setup; whether you use basic oil processing or advanced oil processing ( i guess...) I have calculation for advances...

Thanks, ooh that's why i calculate thing wrong, i forgot to convert it into seconds, no wonder my result is weird.

TIL, thanks. This is great.
You should posted this on reddit.

Btw, how about Solid Fuel ?
I did the calculation above using solid fuel, but end up getting confused,..

0.12.24 I can't generate Big/very big oil field, regardless what setting, the result stay the same. The setting MAY look working in starting area, it generate according to setting, but outside the starting area, the map can only generate small oil field. Yes, i already check, i scan 100x100 chunk wi...

V 0.5.0

Plopping new train station for FARL, then this happened :
I guess it's meant to be.
I keep the name
It's an honor.

Thank you ! This is really helpful.

.....When I stopped the train it still showed the oil inside the train, with the old ones still there. Could this have anything to do with me changing the length of the tankers in the entities.lua file? Known bug. For time being, just shoot them for quick fix. https://forums.factorio.com/forum/view...

Has anyone figure out a layout that can supply in-out 2400 item/min on a fully compressed express belt ? I came-up with this (pic below) but i don't like the result, sometime there's still a gap, albeit small, yet it's there. http://i.imgur.com/Y6xsvvj.png I prefer using fast inserter, but there's n...
