Re: Version 0.17.54

[*]Fixed that inserter tooltips would list pollution despite inserters being unable to produce pollution. (https://forums.factorio.com/72855) Why did a burner inserter don't produce pollution? I’d like to know this too. It makes sense that a burner inserter would produce pollution while the electri...

Re: [MOD 0.16.x] NiceFill

I was trying to avoid this lazy solution but is appears to be necessary. I can't fix compatibility with all mods, so i just made compatibility problems less severe. ...and here I was, just about to drop a bit of code that says "do not ever use these tiles, specifically", which also fixes ...

Re: How can I make my train lines more efficient?

How do you generally make the trains turn around then? Take these stations that I have for example in the photos. The fundamental problem is that I need tons of space and it's not flexible. Drive forward to get out. In my case, normally by having the station be one or more rails aligned with the di...

I agree that construction bots should prioritize blueprints over storage when deconstructing something.
The logistics network doesn't have the thing until the bot delivers it. It can't use it, because as far as it knows, the thing doesn't exist.

Re: Poor ore visualizer

I watched several tutorials and found that scanning and zone assignment are quite simple. Though I don’t like slow and ineffective scanning using radius signal. Due to its random nature some tiles are scanned twice and some stays unexplored for a long time. It’s an issue for me because ore fields a...

Re: [MOD 0.16.x] NiceFill

I'll check this when I get home, but generally, NiceFill creates a copy of a surface with mapgen settings having all water disabled. If any mod ignores mapgen settings for water, water appears on the copy surface and NF copies this water texture. Hrm. I came here because of the same issue. I'm happ...

Re: [MOD 0.15.31+] Supportive Weapons v0.3.1 - Fixed bug

The mod author expressly forbids people to adopt his mod, so this is unlikely to happen until the author changes his stance. Looks abandoned to me. Doesn't change the law, and the license agreement - unless you want to take it to court with a good IP lawyer - is entirely clear: you can download and...

[In-game mod management] Allow "delete" and/or "disable" for installed mods on "install" tab

TL;DR Decided to try a Krastorio game. Look at Krastorio on the install tab of the in-game mod manager. Krastorio conflicts with an installed mod. The "➜" next to it takes me to the mod on the "install" tab, because I clicked it while on the install tab. I can't disable or delet...

The mod Additional Paste Settings implements a bunch of what you asked for. I'm not saying "use the mod", in fact, I mention it for exactly the opposite reason: I thought exactly the same thing as you, and that this should be part of the base game. I found the mod because it wasn't. It tur...

Re: How does uranium processing not cause desync?

Also computer can easily do random, just use the lowest bits from a camera feed. Enough quantum magic going on there. Isn't that cheating like picking up random numbers from the lottery ? It feels to me like what would be random there would be the output of the feed, but that wouldn't require quant...
