Maybe a silly question: Have you guys significantly lowered the "Ambient volume" in the sound settings? This setting actually controls the music (the name might be confusing). It is true that we have increased the spaces between the tracks but that should definitely not result in no music ...

It seems like the music is tied to activity, I've noticed that it turns on depending on what I am doing in the game. Also, the tracks have names like 'pollution', so it seems to be tied to the state of the factory as well. The selection of track doesn't depend on what the player does or what the st...

Brilliant

Actually with Steam release dawning we have started talking internally about some merchandise stuff. First (very simple) testing T-shirt is coming this week. Next step will probably bee a key ring and maybe a Factorio mug. That would be for starters. The preference is to start with simple meaningful...

This is good to hear. I almost started feeling guilty reading the post up to this point

Those icons are quite large - will they be this large in the tech tree preview as well, or will you shrink them? I think automated railway transportation may lose a big chunk of readability, i.e. turn into a small nondescript circle with strange appendages. I trust Albert to sort it out, though. ha...

And it makes a tasty juice too =)

100th edition of FFF - http://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-100

The redirect is there. What exactly is the problem?

Edit: Ok I see what is the problem. This is now fixed - basically whenever user is logged in https is used as well as (this is the change) some selected web pages related to buying the game / updating / etc.

There was an issue of zoom speed depending on the UPS (game speed), this is now fixed for the 0.12.5.

Absolutely brilliant. Thanks for making the thread and thanks (mostly Yuoki) for making great wallpapers. I have sent a link to our lead artist

Kovarex takes pride in game running smooth

Factorio on psychedelics

The bug with crash while "manipulating" the chest during respawn period will be fixed in the 0.12.5. Nice mod by the way.

Oh wow, there is quite some nice material here

That sounds really great! My (soon to be) wife is a math teacher, and she likes to explore some new ways to teach math, like the hejny method: http://www.h-mat.cz/en, which is really interesting and I recommend it. She was quite sceptical, when I told her Factorio can be used too, but I might chang...

... why game stile in alpha? And it is not kovarex-stable :) This game will never get out of alpha :cry: :mrgreen: I feel like that sometimes too, but then I think - this game, certainly in 0.12.x version, has a very satisfying ending and even then you don't have to end it - just look at youtubers ...

Just a FYI. We intend to create something called Multiplayer Matching Server / Service for the 0.13. The intended feature list is not yet complete but it would basically be an in-app integrated server listing service. So the server would list itself with the matching server. There would be some poss...

Yeah, when doing the webpage, minecraft was one of the inspirations
