Re: Techtonica makes me depressed. Factorio could be real 3D

All 3d factory builders in the end never took off in a satisfying way. At best, DSP with the 2.5 stacking of buildings and conveyor layers. Even Gregtech is now more or less dead. I would certainly try out a 3d factorio, but I don't think it would be anywhere as fun as the current 2.5d. Techtonica l...

Re: Friday Facts #406 - Space Age Music

It sounds too epic and not similar to the original Factorio soundtrack for me. It reminds me more of star wars. The original factorio soundtrack just doesn't sound like an orchestra. It also fits better into the background. Just listen to it again. I am also a bit worried, that it is too intensive ...

Re: Friday Facts #406 - Space Age Music

Man, what I thought of, and I hope Kovarex did as well, is how rad it would be to have a remaster of the original theme.
That would be such a cool homage or easter egg :D

For those who did not hear it at the time, you can find it here:

Re: Friday Facts #406 - Space Age Music

Damn, that's amazing! I was hoping for more music, and this certainly overshoots my hopes by a large margin. I do still think, that the first soundtrack, and the current ambient masterpiece still have a right to stand on their own, but I am curious, if the current ambient will not feel like too litt...

Time for the yearly bump
Then I guess it's time for the yearly counter comment of being against this unless it's an option. I like and want the game to pause when I open the research window.
Yeah, the option-bump is fine by me :D

Re: add new signal RGB (Friday Facts #388)

I have no idea about colorspaces and whatnot, but having a lamp signal with 3x8bits for color would be pretty rad, I think. :D

Ooh very sexy, I like it. I am not sure I have strong opinions on possible improvements, until I have played around with it for a sufficiently long time. Looking forward to it!

Re: Friday Facts #404 - Frustration not found

A nice addition, AAI Vehicles selection worked really nicely with spidertrons. With the new logistic presets it will make the spidertrons usable on remote outposts/planets.

Re: Friday Facts #402 - Lightspeed circuits

The idea of wireless data transmission has been on my mind for years. I'm even surprised that the development team didn't come up with it much earlier. There is a lot of fun in laying wires. But it is tiring, and sometimes you opt for the simple solution of not laying wires, relying on simple thing...

Re: Fluid Mechanics Still Broken, 6 Years Later?

I'd go +1 with Tertius and Koub, that while I also would enjoy more "fun" pipe mechanics, in the end it's a supply-demand problem. As long as you produce at least some amount over the required minimum, your system will balance out. In all other cases, yeah, for maintaining flow pumps are a...

Re: Expansion hype thread - Any updates on when/if there will be an expansion?

Anyone knows if early early adopters of Factorio (bought it way back in early days) will qualify for a free update? … 2.0 was a paid DLC, right?

Re: FFF Request: Please don't spoil any new enemies

I also believe that while there is obviously deliberately no reaction on the forum to the feedback, that the feedback is nevertheless accounted and acted upon.
It would be a shame, having such an important aspect of the game as enemies not receive at least some feedback.
