show range of ghost builds

TL;DR Show cargo/construction-range of Roboports also while in 'planing'-state (ghost) What ? For an existing Roboport the ghost of the range of the bots is shown, this is also true when planing and planting roboports and blueprints, but after placing the blueprint the range-color disapear. The ran...

Re: Friday Facts #275 - 0.17 Science changes

Grenade stays as it’s a very useful weapon against large groups of enemies, like biters or trees. Yeah, those fearsome trees, our worst enemy... I prefer Flamethrowers, nothing is as satisfying as seeing a giant forest burn to ashes. The only thing I would disagree with here are the productivity mo...

Rocket / Silo

So as i look at things, the rocket surface out of thin air then... as i currently see it the rocket is just a beefed up version of the missle, so no problem if its attached to the military branch of research.... i would suggest to use the flamm-able as prerequisite for the rocket-silo and rename it ...

Re: Friday Facts #274 - New fluid system 2

So yes, if you put 5 fluid into 101 pipes, it should eventually disappear. But that is not a very frequent case. Most common case is the pipes are full all the time and that loss does not seem very large to me. Not great, sure, but lower limit means more time when you do want to empty it. If you ha...

Re: Friday Facts #274 - New fluid system 2

How will this work with non-pipe fluidboxes, i.e. turbines or steam engines? For example, how will low temperature steam mix with high temperature one? Or they just won't? It's technically the same fluid and there were nuclear builds with adding additional steam engines at the end to utilize leftov...

Re: New Achievement Ideas

Two Achievement proposals for the vanilla factorio….

• Rocket without any beacon -> hard-core-mogul no short cuts
• Rocket without any moduls & beacons -> true to the bone

and a added achievment :
• only burner inserters -> black hands

Re: The Problem With Pickaxes - Digging Out Factorio's Core

Just to add some to the confusion ;) As i have no problem when the axes are removed from the game. I have always thought of the different axes as a mk1-mk2-mk3 axe like the assemblers/miners in factorio. It is a faint hint in early game that you can upgrade almost everthing and for starters the axes...

Re: Friday Facts #273 - Cutscene controller & Localisation plan

Why does the rail clock clear all segments on transition and not only this needed to be cleared? There is plently room for optimisationalso as the transitions take ages. Because it's much easier that way. Feel free to send a pr when 0.17 is out :v I don’t know how difficult is to translate it to a ...

Re: Friday Facts #273 - Cutscene controller & Localisation plan

That clock looks very cool……

I don’t know how difficult is to translate it to a Screen saver ?

Running Factorio as Screensavere seems somewhat very resourcefull…..
But on the other hand you need only an animation for every number 0-9 and then place it on the screen accordingly….

Re: [MOD 0.16] Ribbon Maze 0.6.7

It would be nice if dead ends of the maze can be 3x3 or 5x5 chunks size, but the corridors have the same one chunk wide. That's the idea, but it's difficult. I think its possible when you set the corridors n-size plus 2 wide while using only the center chunk for the maze, so that the chasm is just ...
