Or just directly open existing request on attempt to create new.

That is what he means by “jump to the settings gui”

With the upcoming improvements to ghost placement and the spidertron (thank you devs), I will be using ghost building a lot more. It is currently quite tedious to constantly press shift and release it for rotations and other interactions when building ghosts. If an option to have a ghost automatical...

detecting and following progress in-game might feel more restrictive.

Can you not just look at the techs researched for the most recent save?

day length multiplier should be 1
Default values are on the wiki:

Just like we see the percent completion of research without the queue, it would be nice to have an indicator somewhere in the research screen that gave a percentage, rather than having the player estimate the research using the green bar. (I thought I remembered a suggestion like this, but didn't fi...

Yay! more keyboard and less clicking!
Things just get better and better.

Also, finally the power pole connections: now I don't have to have all my powerpoles in a perfect grid.

sounds like a long line of pumps. Maybe full pumps in series could be calculated like fully saturated belts?

I have gone into the config file and changed the gui scale before, but with the constant adjustment I do, it becomes incredibly tedious to set it back to 85% each time.

This seems like a more complicated solution to the exact same thing as the chain signal change

The kind of people who create these kinds of complaint-threads are usually the ones that "can't use mods" for arbitrary reasons - like "it would disable achievements" or "i want it in vanilla". There's no point trying to convince them. Or “I want to play on most servers”

The day/night settings are saved with the actual save file. If you don’t mind disabling achievements, you can use /editor, go to the stopwatch tab, and change the day/night values there. If you do mind disabling achievements, you could try changing the mod value to something random, saving, reloadin...

This suggestion sounds nice, I'd like it if it were implemented.

At megafactory scale where most beacons are used power is also the least concern. More of a nice to have. So if "wasting" (what you really mean is "not sharing") reduces the overall count of required machines that's what's gonna happen. Id say this is actually a benefit: as the ...

I think we should wait to see what they do 1.1. There may already be a plan for this.

Or if we say the beacon had a “direction” in which they can send its power?

I considered suggesting rectangular range, but didn't know if that would work or not with the game/game engine. It sounds interesting to think about at least.

Most definetly, but this doen't look less repetitive to me. A perfect rectangular grid. Doesn't even need the usual 1-tile shift. In the pic, you have no place for belts and you cannot place lines of assemblers. Two rows of beacon are possible, but maybe not optimal My point exactly. If one assumes...

I’m not 100% sure about the context you are talking here. Is that the name of a train station? Can you give an example?

Yes, train stations in the context of visibility.

And how do you see if the station is opened or closed ?

The "[L/U]" turns red

(Is there no way just do a raw string? bracket U bracket tries to underline)

Having multiple stack inserters all adding science packs on exactly same tick still only results in 1 stack inserter delivering its packs before the rocket launches

Sounds like a bug to me.
