Woohoo, I am up and running again :D ! Thanks SO MUCH for all the expert help with this! I could not have done it with out the help provided here. It will take a little while to recover the flying robot speed and mining productivity boosts I lost to get each of my science kit facilities back up to ...

I think this is due to the sharing of code with the normal mining drills.

you are right, chests show direction arrow too

Factorio.pdb is useful for game crash report, just keep it

Unfortunately, while the new file starts showing zero run time, it still stops after about four minutes of running time:(. The game tracks two different times, map time and time played. As far as i know the raw map time is not shown in the gui, and is not resetted when importing as scenario. I've n...

Like san said, saving you a click or two :D You can try importing the save file into a new one using the map editor "import save" feature. I have no idea if it will work or what might break but it's worth a try. Your world will end up on another surface but from a gameplay perspective it ...

I think it means:
Steam Engine can use steam with termperature up to 165 degree.

Not a bug?
try do this slowly, or hold mouse and move with A

going too fast this always happens. turn down mouse DPI.

You are both wrong, but keep try guessing. Even a blind chicken can find a grain.

maybe you click mouse too late? can you reproduce this?

2) Altering the mag generator settings so that at least some of the achievements are disabled no longer causes a warning message to appear. Was there ever such warning in the map generator UI? The warning will appear in the Achievements list after the game is started. but if I don't open achievemen...

I think this is not a bug, you can't click on UI

test result:
1. click Light Armor in inventory show Light Armor
2. click Light Armor in body show Power Armor Mk2

in multi-player you can transfer most materials from your inventory to another player by ctrl-left clicking the item on that player, however this does not work with rails. I have not found any other item that it fails on, just rails. Instead you get the ghost action as if you were shift clicking if...

Thanks for that, plus the confirmation that it can be done anyway. I managed to scavenge all the old stuff lying around the map, plus I found the odd little 'retreat' in the top right-hand corner. Did you manage to defeat the biters** with the limited technologies available? I sort of gave up for a...

I just tried it, and I can do it just fine, only the selection box isn't visible.

not only the box invisible.
you cannot transfer rails to other by Ctrl+Click

After fulfilling the mission I decided to carry on playing the map and found out that it was large enough to be entertaining, but not infinite. As it is finite I set myself a mission to wipe out the biters completely - which of course wouldn't be possible on an infinite map. The first hurdle to thi...

Hi! Thanks that does look a lot simpler. I was unaware of the --config parameter. As far as I understand your post, this simple trick of yours replicates exactly what I am doing? So factorio reads all static data relative to the binary, and all variable data relative to the config? - That's an inge...

reproduced:

normal item: have yellow box on other player rail: no yellow box

maybe you don't need mklink. I do it this way: 1. extract Factorio to C:\Local\Factorio_1.1.26 2. mkdir C:\Local\Factorio-1 3. copy config.ini to C:\Local\Factorio-1\config.ini, or create new one: ; version=9 [path] write-data=C:\Local\Factorio-1 4. modify config.ini: write-data=C:\Local\Factorio-1 ...

If you enjoy running all tests, there will be more files missing TestImages.7z Remaining 3 files are only used when tests are run with graphics. If you want you may run `factorio-test.exe -g --fork` (or even `-gh --fork` for heavy mode with graphics) and they will be used (https://factorio.com/blog...
