Well, my factory runs 100% on solar (3000 collectors and 4000 accus at the moment) but since I heavily make use of production and speed modules my pollution goes through the roof nevertheless

On the pictures it looks like you defined what items to put in which storage chest. If so, how did you manage to do?

This should be changed, yes. I have the problem with every other items as well. With eg items that can be stacked to 100 I always can not request more than 90 items, otherwise I will have more than one stack when I have eg 98 items, the bots deliver me 5 items (stack size) I end up with one full sta...

Outstanding feature changes!

Just try using an austrian proxy server.

As I read in another thread, he also had problems with too less VRAM on his MAC. After a complete reboot without restoring the opened programs the game worked for him, firefox (flash plugin) and some other programms clogged up the memory.

With the current settings, a solar factory is an excellent candidate for productivity modules. The pollution added and extra power consumed is almost meaningless given the factory is waiting for resources most of the time.

Since they only work with intermediate products, no

I am really hoping you release it friday afternoon, so I can play it in the evening.

Well, I have made such an Excel-Sheet with a LOT of formulas :) It's in half english, half german, and mostly undocumented. It works perfectly, if you know how to use it. It includes calculating all speeds and all yields with modules. If you manage to find out how to use it, feel free to do so, but ...

One of the things I really want so see working

I hope the devs let us place miners wherever we want. The only thing that happens when placing a miner not on ore is that they just dont work, just like on an depleted ore field.

Yes the speed module would grant you more oil per second due to the fact oil is an infinite resource. Compared to an orefield with eg 1000 iron ore: The speedmodule would you let mine also 20% faster, but the resource field is also depleted 20% faster, granting 1000 ore in total. 3 productivity modu...

Tried with an proxy from Austria? Never had to create an account for paysavecard payments so long (seems to work with factorio purchase)

eg: first google-hit http://webproxy.at/

or some other proxy or VPN (Google helps)

Also offtopic: Biters - as they are now - are extremly stupid and simple creatures. Don't think they have ANY kind of intelligence (aka "that alien with the machines is destroying our environment) but more instinct driven and only reacting to the nearest factors. Running stupidly into defensive...

Thanks for your efforts Always surprised what is possible with modding and good ideas how to make it happen

I am still trying to find the optimal rate of cracking, solid fuel and lubricant. I haven't used many super fast belts yets, so lube just piles up in a tank, but I find that one plant cracking heavy from one refinery causes the light to fill up storage with only one plant cracking it to gas. Anyone...

As I see things, those 0.5 sec craftingtimes of complex buldings like solar panels, accus, assemblers etc are just not yet balanced and are artifacts of the early game development, hence it's an alpha.

... But you can't know you'd like to stop on the 5th signal from where you are now, since there are other, potentially lighter, trains that change those signals. When all trains - independent of length - have approx the same brakespeed, this would be no problem at all. By the way, thats all just mi...

Everything's fine You numbers mean that the electric demand of your factory is 50% of maximum capacity of the generators (and you have enough 100°C-hot water supplied = "Available"-bar)
