I'd quite like to see an option in the map generating screen to turn off this victory pole behaviour.. If the biters want to make their base inside my base, let them

If I will get the lowest tier now (only one I may be able to afford as of the moment), Will I be able to upgrade to the next tier in case I want to? Yes you can, you will get an upgrade code. What is the objective of the game? I seem to be a bit confused by it but if the game is just about starting...

Great idea. Countless times I've told myself "I will fix this belt in five minutes", only to come back to that place hours later wondering why I've completely run out of iron and coal A big annoying siren every five minutes would be good as well

I'm sorry, atm I really don't have the patience to find out how this is supposed to work (it's not you, it's me ;) ).. a few things that I found out in the 5 minutes that I tried to play it: - the blinking label in the top left, combined with the beeping sound, drove me nuts. - can you start the gam...

This game will never get out of alpha

no, I used a much smaller arrows (mainly because I was too lazy to make decent ones ), but I used just the < > v ^ characters right next to the players' name.

When MP first came out, I made a small mod that did just this, and I had arrows pointing to the other players positions. Might be nice to include this in your (very usefull) mod as well?

very impressive! Did you launch all those by hand, or can you auto-launch rockets?

This doesn't work on MP maps even when loaded in SP :( /edit I looked, the code half uses game.players[1]. the other half uses game.player. Search replaced game.player. with game.players[1]. and it works now on my MP map. Thanks for that, I've updated the mod :) It's only usable in singleplayer. Yo...

This is still the same in 0.12.4

Got an error on updating to .12.4, and straight after Avast anti virus told me it was deep-scanning some new files in the Factorio folder. The game restarted automaticly when that was done, to 0.12.4, showing the changelog as expected. Win 8 - x64, zip version, full screen [edit] tried again with a ...

the commands have changed since 0.11.
In 0.11: game.reloadscript()
in 0.12: game.reload_script()

so i'm guessing, just copying the 0.12 version pack to 0.11 doesn't work.. you will have to play 0.12, which has very few bugs and is more fun to play anyway

(how do you play scenarios? I've only played this game for 2 years, so I don't know yet )

I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was at work when I answered this. If you download the 0.12.3 release, the first time you start it, fill in your username/password, then you have to tick "Options - Other - Check for updates when launching factorio", restart the game and it will offer the scenario ...

The new alpha (0.12.3 now) does not auto-upgrade from 0.11.22, so you will have to download it manually from the "experimental updates" section on the download part of the website. After enabling Check Updates it should download the scenario pack.

0.12.3 is out, and omg that background.. i'm never gonna hit that 'play' button again, i'm just gonna stare at the background image

It makes more sense for train to wait indefinitely if conditions aren't met. I would say it makes as much sense. Depends on the exact use. I'll see what i can do If your outpost is depleted the train would wait there forever. Another option would be to create a "parking" station and send ...

hahaha nice one, spamming in a thread about spamming.. if I report his post, will the control panel be used?

Had the same, at first I thought I was standing too far away, but even when standing right next to the chest, sometimes clicking does nothing.

mngrif found out the Alt info wasn't showing, fixed now in 0.5.2 .
