It's not quite the same though, if it was just picking the clear path i could understand it, but for me both tracks are occupied @_@

reality Raggle Fraggle! Thats not a bug. Not to mention this is necessary if you want to prioritize solar over dirty power. If you intermix them your powergrid will eat solar until theres no more solar, like at night, then start using dirty power instead of the accumulator power that was charged by...

True for DTTD, but for factorio with multiplayer you can drive a train by manually and then this "what if you are in a train stranded inside a tunnel?" is a serious problem. That's why I pointed so strong to it above. There are some worst cases, not all are mentioned yet in this thread. T...

I've posted about this before, but this time i caught the son of a bitch in the act. :twisted: http://i60.tinypic.com/2qxxobb.jpg Here Train 2 was waiting for the track ahead to clear as train 1 approached the intersection, selecting the wrong track while both exits were blocked by train 1. This hap...

This isn't about how to use signals, it was easy to fix, the problem is with the way a signal on a straight rail joining a curved rail splits the block, as in this case it doesn't. The straight rail very slightly overlaps with the box of the curved rail, so the game doesn't split them properly, whic...

Something's been bothering me for a while with the signals and i finally think i know what it is; signals placed overlapping turns, even when it makes no sense for the signal to register the other side of the turn will still register as the same block. http://i57.tinypic.com/161e3w5.jpg The train is...

Guys he's not asking for help setting up his railroad, he's talking about a legitimate complaint with the rail system There is no way to cross a rail line without interrupting it. This imposes a hard limit on how much train you're able to have on your map with no way of circumventing it. you could n...

Nope, hate this. You can completely ignore oil/artifacts this way; less complex production lines and less resources being sunk.

The main problem is that petroleum gas products are in much higher demand than light/heavy oil products. So the recipe would never be used. This, but more importantly, the ONLY thing you can make by this conversion is lubricant, and technically flame thrower fuel, but you are NEVER going to need th...

I support this as well. The thing I'm concerned about is performance. This is not performance heavy at all, it shouldn't use more resources than paint and its not important to update every tick. There's no need for photoshop levels of detail, and simple vector drawings are extremely lightweight. Eve...

This has been irritating me for a long time now so i thought i'd post. Trying to scroll the map takes ages, it would be nice if it moved faster the further you're zoomed out.

This really needs to be added, as soon as you get a larger network going there is constant stoppage. The only way you CAN work around this is by splitting up each line to hold multiple trains that can cross at once, so a 1 by 1 line get split into 4 by 4 then you can get trains through faster, but t...

I disagree with that, because electric setup is still dirt cheap. No point in wasting ressources in burning stuff, nor in bothering to make an alimentation circuit. Time is a resource too, but i guess this does depend on the game you're playing. I'm assuming this is for infinite map freeplay, so th...

When i move the mouse over the warning messages the game crashes. The messages are for queued up trees to be cut down missing construction bots. I just installed 10.1, the save says it requires the 9.8 modpack but it loads fine. Save in case you can't replicate: https://www.mediafire.com/?vvodgvc9zz...

I've had this problem for a while now and i'm not sure why. I had to download 10.0 from the homepage instead of patching, and now it wont download 10.1. I have experimental updates and check for updates enabled so that can't be it, and its added to my firewall as well. Plz halp.

- Build copper/iron burner drills outputting directly into a furnace for easy access to building materials - Have burner drills dump coal into chests, then carry the coal around you can use ctrl+left click to insert what you're holding into the object your mouse is over. This way you can quickly ref...

Ok, i've had it happen 12 times in a row now so i'm providing my savegame for reproduction. Just keep in mind it is not happening 100% of the time, but placing a diagonal line of substations between the bodies of water is crashing a lot, if it doesn't just reload and try again a few times, it should...

The important part is the filter configuration, not the storage area layout. Such picture then doesn't help seeing you didn't do anything wrong, but only confuses. Yeah you're right, looking at it now it's complete shit, my bad :oops: Yes, the items to be requested list. a) is the bug i'm talking a...

Trees aren't the problem, i've placed several power lines through forests and it works just fine, but i'm having this problem as well, not just with poles but substations as well. It seems to kick in when the game tries to place the new substation/pole. I've had it happen a few times while i noticed...

What do you mean weird coloured? The picture shows a storage chest with a filter for copper ore, that's not supposed to be there. EDIT: Let me try to explain this again. When you place a chest over another type of chest the new chest replaces the old one. When you do this with a storage (yellow) che...
