The news always makes me want to play the game with the changes, so every Friday is like a teaser for the next Factorio release. I agree with every change mentioned here mainly including the rethought since last FFF. That is, the research queue, and Q while holding blueprint. Cannot wait to use 0.17...

Hello, When I hover over this (see picture) beacon that is connected to two electric networks (one sufficient one without power) it shows insufficient energy but there is plenty of electricity. It fixes itself when I reconect it/ do something with it. It woon't disapear by it self. See attached save...

I see one problem. When you pick up EC, and you get the items back, your inventory might overflow { you could get two items (Fe plate and Cu wire) while there could be only one place in your inventory } That means that it would say you have full inventory (Cannot pick up one item EC, because {} ) o...

Using on_chunk_generated it should be trivial to spawn two ores in one tile, though that would probably look a bit strange graphically. You can achieve a better look by using layered graphics (requires no new sprites, just code) and custom ores that have two (or more) outputs. Here's what copper/ir...

I edited it a bit, summing up comments and regarding the .16.17 'splitter' update

On Steam there still is '[/list]' at the end of one paragraph (title Belt buff imidiately folows after that)
taking the html out of steam and taking into consideration only the FFF: it is the 16806th -> 16813th character
It is the only on the page.

The idea is simple: In game we can see lots of patches that are over each other, however on the tile itself is always only one of the resources. What I would like is to be able to have multiple resources on one tile. It is now possible for a miner to mine multiple resources by covering more tiles, h...

Yes! I would like that too. The more experienced players could get used to that (gain experience with the current state), but even they would definitely appraise it. For the newer players I feel it is almost necessary. If it will be added in like a year from now I believe that it will get similar re...

Same issue in my case. Once it autosaves it crashes. Attaching current-log and save that works. And the 'unfinished' autosave. At the same time, second, probably related bug: there are passive-provider-chests blinking that they are not in reach of roboport logistic covarage even thought they are. De...

Part of the issue with electrified rail comes in with the problem of "Multiple rail types" As someone, Rseding most likely, previously pointed out... Part of the reason why electrified rail will never happen is down to the whole issue of whether or not a train should be allowed to travel ...

Any chance rail categories could be re-added? Not likely. If they did, it wouldn't be in any meaningful way. The entire rail system was built under the concept that there exists one rail category and that any rails in the world always interact with each other. Changing that isn't likely unless it h...

My question is: Can a mod affect game ticks? That is: Can I (hopefuly a future modder) acess game ticks? Can I make the game to update normaly (60 ticks/s) everyvhere and then make one chunk, or rectangle, or list of entities to simulate faster or slower? such as 90 ticks/s, 2520 ticks/s, 1 tick/s ?...

Hi, Today I was attacked by biters and after they destroyed my one trurret with one ammo they tried to make a base (or I think they tried) but they struggled to. They were near mining drills and belts (which they rided frequently). Then they just mooved back and forth for about an minute before most...

Don't forget to notify us in future FFF when the second part will come out!

Crap, I just read a post and originaly submitted this under it starting with:
"I have the same problem but it actually is a bug."
Well then, any chance that this would make it through suggestions? (if robot would take more then 10 secs then new robot will be choosen for that task) ?

Crap, sorrry, uploaded the wrong file, ups...
There's the right one now.

He probably means blueprint.
If that's so, then you cannot Q back in your inventory an item when your inventory is full. Blueprint is item like every other

Robot's wont construct fast inserter and yellow belt when I tell them to, placing one of my blueprints.
There is also curved rail to be constructed which I don't have rails for. I'm playing on the Marathon map.
It happened more times on that map and it is getting annoying.
I'm attaching save file.

well "hover over train crash" in advanced search didn't return any results :/

I have an autosave (made it into permanent save) that when I load and hover over locomotive I'm riding, game crashes (every time). It is not gamebreaking as I got the autosave (finally paid off that annoying cancel-action-auto-saving) and when I hover over my watter locomotive and then over the one ...
