I love this! I can actually move in my oil fields. Thanks.

Any way to toggle it on/off? Sometimes, I need to run, NOW.

The downside: making belt based system load chests evenly is a pain. Bots do it automatically (the fill requestors requesting the same item uniformly). Why is it a pain? It's one combinator and a bit of wiring (all of which is blueprinted so you don't even have to do it yourself more than once). IM...

I'd add one more balancer. See below.

Nice work! Looks like you got the ratio down. You could also put some underground pipes in there to break things up to allow for more walkability or grab the squeak thru mod.

Hahaha, reminds me of the time my friend AFK'ed and I put him on a belt that was shaped like a penis and then took screen shots.

I've heard that trains pick their path the moment they leave their originating station. If there's something in the path, they just wait for it to clear, even if there's an alternate. The proposed solution is to put a 0-second station stop at the entrance of the area, so it'll path to the entrance o...

Do you mean the behemoth?

What to do with your trees: (by me)

Hm. I don't see the big gain in using gas instead of oil to produce electricity: Gas is also a liquid. There is nearly no added game-value. There is IRL because there's more gas and it's easier to get than oil. To make this idea viable, there'd have to be a change in resources. There may already be...

unfortunately 5dim seem not be interested to convert it to 0.13.

Who are you referring to in this super-old post?

What is "that" that you're referring to in this super-old post?

Ah, good point. Thanks.

My reply disappeared. Weird.

That fixed it. I made a new map and it worked! Thanks for the help.

What's your idea?! I wanna see it when you've done something!

I just made my first mod, https://mods.factorio.com/mods/mooklepticon/Wood_Gas, but I'm not sold on the energy costs of things. Any tips on deciding how much energy a recipe costs? How many items to use to convert from a raw energy-producing input to a final energy procuding output (ie: coal to soli...

I'm trying to add wood gasification. I got the wood-to-other-stuff part down. It makes petroleum gas and tar. I'm trying to get the tar to make solid fuel, but the recipe won't show up. I'm getting no errors, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Could y'all take a look?

I'm not sure: You can currently fast-replace only items of the same size (which makes somehow sense?). Perhaps not. I've seen images of people replacing warehouses (large) with storage chests (1x1) and then show the resulting items spreading everywhere. I don't know if warehouses being a mod intera...

Please can mining richness (recourses per tile) increase with distance away from the starting area? I'm spending so much time on mining expansions at the moment and more and more electricity defending them. Which has been fun making them neat and efficient and efficent to make, but I kinda want the...

Wow, that is massive.

hahahaha, that's hilarious.

The biters seem unpredictable. I'll try to build a few turrets where they last attacked, and the next time they'll skirt the range of the turrets and run into the base. This is confusing to me because the biters in my game are TOTALLY predictable. They attack the same spots every time. When they at...

For signaling purposes: adding a red light next to a turret to show if it has low ammo

Until they implement this, I bet you could do this with a chest that feeds into the turret, since chest contents can be read. I'm so doing this.
