I rolled up a game with this, raven metal and RSO. I was wondering what settings you used for those screenshots, the Bobs one in particular is a pretty big patch. I went with default settings and got what look to be a lot smaller patches. I was also wondering if it is intentional that ores can spot ...

I like that you have a big plan and seem to be starting out doing it. If you're hoping for collaboration/help/ideas though you'll either need to find more people that speak whatever it is you speak or one who's fluent in english because I didn't make much sense of that lot.

Ok, I thought this looked interesting so I flashed up a new game to give it a whirl. 1) Is it intentional that there is no way to make steel until you have green science working? (All the recipes require the 2nd furnace) 2) The flux description says it produces slag but it doesn't actually. 3) Picki...

I hope your scrum master keeps a tight reign. Everywhere I've been in the last few years (I do short contract work) that used scrums (the standup meetings) suffered from the same problem: one or more people who just keep on talking. Constant comments, interruptions, discussions and plain long winded...

I was directed here after posting this in the suggestions area: How hard would it be to create something like a directional radio (name only, you wouldn't actually need to point it anywhere)? I'm thinking paired objects that you set to one of a few dozen channels to link them up, one sits in the bas...

How hard would it be to create something like a directional radio (name only, you wouldn't actually need to point it anywhere)? I'm thinking paired objects that you set to one of a few dozen channels to link them up, one sits in the base and the other in an outpost. Set the pair to the same channel ...

I don't see that your argument holds true to be honest. Everything in Factorio is infinite since it's procedurally generated, space is at a premium if you have aggressive biters - clearing land and holding it costs effort, materials and time. If you've switched them off you can expand at will. If yo...

Worthless is a little strong but I'd definitely agree that keeping burner inserters would be advantageous.

Is there any "How to use the mod"? I click on the coal field and get it on the list but when I click on the copper which is just next to coal, the coal gets replaced by copper on the list. They get the same name so I was wondering is there any way I can change the name of the field so the...

... to get megawatts out. But megawatts per solar panel surface isnt the right way to measure an object in a game where the consumption values are not balanced for realism. The proper metric is "surface area of solar panels to surface area of objects powered". You only need to adjust the ...

Solar panel output changed to 20 kW (nerfing to 33% from vanilla, still harsh considering that coal only get's nerfed by 50%) Interestingly 20kW is exactly what I think the solar panel output should be too. 20kW is close to the energy requirements of a electric miner drill with 3x eff1 modules (18k...

Just a note, I have 20 diesel generators running flat out during the night (with some accumulator drainage so I know they are going maximum) and they generate 51MW. just a touch under the 52 expected from 20 x 2.6MW. Or maybe it's a rounding thing.

technically it is compatible, it will not crash your game
however, as Murlocking pointed out, depending on how much stuff you carrry, you may lose some

Aha, this explains why a bunch of my stuff went missing earlier tonight.

you shouldn't really need anything extra for my mod to be able to handed the gasses... Hydrogen, Chrlorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen all have the option to be vented with a pump in my mod. Oil based products can be cracked down into hydrogen, and vented. The other chemicals like Nitric acid, And along t...

Sodium Hydroxide is a common problem, I've already halved the amount of it that you get from the chemical reaction. Though considering it is a solid, and the others are a gas, I could reduce it even further. (in fact I want to re-visit and re-ballance the entire electrolsis system for the next majo...

How does this and your settings work with RSO? Not very well I would imagine unless you like pain. This is the radar view from my game using his exact settings http://i.imgur.com/wz50S0a.jpg RSO would move all the ore patches outside the start area miles away, out past the ring of biters into even ...

In the meantime, I recommend the compression chest mod, that what I use to store my excess. I've got a little over 750k in it so far. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=4845 I find the compression chest idea rather cheaty for my taste. Void chest, fluid void and the gas vent pump ...

How much pollution does this make? The same as 14 coal boilers? More? Less?

I looked in the KS_Power scripts but I could only see pollution mentioned in the diesel generator.

The Bergius process mod does a similar thing converting coal to petrochemicals.

Does a blueprint contain wires and conditions? I've never tried that but it'd be fairly nifty if it did.
