Re: Have biter nests be more usefull

Is it possible to have two different recipes for the same item? Perhaps it would be an easy solution, if the pink alien parts just reduce the ressource needs of some science pack types in an alternative recipe, that is also available. Another use case for alien stuff would be the ability to boost so...

Re: Factorio should have DLC.

Is Factorio in some kind of financial trouble? I doubt they have any major financial difficulties. In they last 3 years, they've sold over 1.2 million copies, which at $20 apiece is $24 million - $8 million a year over 3 years, and I'd guess that that's rising. Factorio costs less money in a lot of...

Re: Factorio should have DLC.

Just let us hope, that the sales of factorio will be that great, that Wube will do this job hopefully for a long time and still add some nice features (and modding options :D ) after 1.0

This would surely be the best thing, that could possibly happen.

Re: Factorio should have DLC.

If you want to split a community into haves and have-nots, that's your call, but I'd prefer it wasn't this one. This is not my intention. But i would appreciate that the development continues after 1.0. As long as they can sell enought copies this will surely happen. I talk about a period after tha...

Re: Factorio should have DLC.

Because some people thought, you could fiance Wube mainly with merchandise and this post fits into this thread too: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=59206&start=100#p357546 Factorio might benefit from some merchandise instead. T-shirts are a nice start, but a Factorio toolbox...

Re: Remove Blueprint Importing?

Dunno how most other people do it, but I probably spend at least 3x more time utilizing Creative Mode mod to optimize layouts for my current game, than I spend in my actual game. If I couldn't utilize the blueprint library to save my work between the different instances, I would be really kind of i...

Re: Factorio should have DLC.

Unfortunately the nature of DLC places it in direct competition with the modding community who do it for FREE. I just want to add the hint, that some stuff is nearly unmoddable (or only with performance penalties) but easy to implement within the source code of the game. In my terms it's mandatory ...

Re: Factorio Roadmap for 0.16+

Ok, but why are aliens in the game? Basically they are just a random maintenance source (attack and damage your base randomly) too and shouldn't be in the base-game if your opinion is correct. it's not a random event. btw. if you setup your defense properly, it doesn't need maintenance just supplie...

Re: Factorio Roadmap for 0.16+

Every time you launch a rocket, there is a 1% chance that an engine misfires and the rocket spins out of control and takes out half of your base. Because random. Random events (disasters) could be interesting in the end game. why people in building games always want something to break, destroy stuf...

Re: Train navigation checkpoint

This can already be accomplished in vanilla. Just place a train station where you want the train to go, and just set the wait condition to anything that will make it leave instantly. Sure it'll have to stop and then go...but it is better than nothing. You notice by yourself, that the suggestion is ...

Re: Better train control

Copying Blueprints is something the game designers supports and many people do right now (e.g. balancers). I cannot see your problem here, because it is an accepted way to surpass complex problems in the game and you could easily ignore it, if you don't want it. And you can ignore one checkbox in t...
