I think it would be nice quality of life option to have item placement locked on grid to a vertical or horizontal line when doing a running placement of things. There could be a toggle key for this functionality. This would be nice in case you... 1) run into things, get displaced on your running lin...

If I run and use ghost placement of power poles, the ghosts are placed right next to each other. Better would be for them to be placed like they are when doing manual running placement. (max distance between poles or placement such that everything near poles would get power while maintaining as long...

I like that design. Any chance for a blueprint string?

Then in that case changing to cubic meters as measurement of liquids would make the game inconsistent since everything else is changing prefixes in increments of 1000 pro: It would be correct con: it would be confusing I fear in this case the con would outweigh the pro I would fully support 3 decima...

Thanks for clearing that up!

Related to this. Let´s say I research 40 levels of mining productivity.

Is the end result like 2%*40=80% more productivity or is it more like 1.02^40 =~2.21 times the base productivity?

This may or may not be already planned... and this may seem like something obvious... But are you guys going to make it possible for the artillery train to shoot nukes if/when the whole artillery train thing is implemented? I would suggest yes :) automated nuclear destruction of bugnests and bugs wo...

Looking good! Wow. that is much faster than what I had going on.

Not sure if this is a bug or a feature so for now Im going to refrain from posting this on bug reports. I was trying to make emptying and filling a liquid wagon as fast as possible so I put pumps on both sides of a liquid wagon. 3 on one side and 3 on the other side. However, only pumps on one side ...

I would prefer armies that you do not need to control in rts fashion, as in automated armies. I think combination of artillery train (that is yet to be made for vanilla) and robot army mod (https://mods.factorio.com/mods/kyranzor/robotarmy) would be mostly sufficient... unless you really, really wan...

so next level is 41 of 16 - infinity? also list on the left says 1 of 16 - infinity so it is different than what is shown on the right. same kind of thing on all remaining techs https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/840330163400529488/6159A813F5ECC1E05F2BD0178238095AE9B112AD/ https://steamuseri...

is it just me then that wants a more flashy bang?

So I still had it wrong then I shall try the other way around this evening

oh. I must have been blind

Thank you!

Not only did I find the button but I did get my trains on my actual map working too.

signal before crossroads, chain signal after crossroads is what seems to work.

So I have forgotten how the signals work since on some of my previous playthroughs I didnt use trains. This time, I have trains but initially I designed my train tracks such that they never cross so I didn´t click on the tutorial things when they popped up on the screen as I had other things to do. ...

Now that I can mass produce nukes, I fail to see any reason why I should turret creep anymore

For users, I think it would be sensible if there was only one place to set things instead of doing it twice. But I don´t know how much work that is.
However, If you intended it to work as is, it is fine as it is.

Isnt the tech research a bit expensive? I mean normal high end research is like 500-1000. This one is 250000 :o With research modifier 10, this is 2,5 Million lol. WTF? The end game in 0.15 is different from 0.14, you have other things to do now. Yes it is expensive. And yes it should be! I think y...

ah, so you would barrel without actually putting the barrels in a cargo wagon. Didn´t even think of that for some reason

So I guess the throughput of belts is better than throughput of pipes? By how much?

This offsets the hassle of actually having to build barreling and unbarreling assemblers?

Please be more specific. How is it better than just putting lubricant in a liquid wagon?
