Easy reset Factorio to its "factory value"?
After playing around with the console -
is there a easy way to reset the game to its "factory value" e.g. download status without a new instalment?

I'm using this command line to make map preview images and it always outputs an image of Nauvis. Is there any way to make preview images of the other planets?
Code: Select all
factorio --generate-map-preview=map-preview.png --map-gen-settings map_gen_settings.json --map-preview-size=2048

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
I tried according to the factorio console command sheet:
/c local reach = 10000
game.player.force.character_build_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_reach_distance_bonus = reach
but it wont work - whats the right command then?

Ughh.... How do I open the Electrical Network Info Panel in Space? On planet, I just clicked a power pole. BUT no power poles needed in space bases.
Tried searching for a hot key in settings, could not fine one. (nothing under Electrical, or Network.)
Do I need to send up a power pole to my base to click on? or Did I miss a hot key in settings?
Sending up a powerpole works to to click on, 1 pole is enough, the electricity " travels" through the platform, so you don't need to setup an electric grid in space
Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Open the platform hub, there is an lightning icon top right that opens the power network on the platform.
My own personal Factorio super-power - running out of power.

Is a Mac specific update (settling the speed problem) in the pipeline?

What's the requirement for the "Work Around the Clock" achievement? I'm about 8 hours under the time and finished Aquilo, do I have to just arrive at solar system edge? Or mine promethian research, get it back to a planet and finish research productivity tech?

Another manifestation of two-digit IQ from me, probably.
What's the big idea behind Pumpjacks being non-flippable post-2.0?
FFF-394 assumes that everything is flippable now - but... I'm too exhausted currently and don't want to produce a pointless not-a-bug just because my brain combo'ed another fart in a row.
Maybe I've missed something about Pumpjacks, after all.

Things that don't have a straight line for symetry can't be flipped, pumpjack unlike chemplants refinery or boiler are only rotationnaly symetric.EustaceCS wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 11:28 pmAnother manifestation of two-digit IQ from me, probably.

Well, yes, but The Final Boss section of that FFF describes something even more spectacular - and current implementation of flipping is expected to handle even that...
...maybe it was scrapped, after all

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Let's look at it :
This means you don't need new graphics because you can swap the ouput/input.This is the Space Manufactory from the Space Exploration mod. It has 12 pipe connections and only diagonal symmetry. It had me back to pen and paper scratching at corners of my brain I haven't used for a while. Flipping over a diagonal doesn't just move the position, it also rotates by 90 degrees, throwing off all my current code that could reliably just rotate 180 degrees. After some mild weeping I began reworking large chunks of code to take into account a direction adjustment when diagonal symmetry was in play.
Now look at the pumpjacks : it doesn't have axial symmetry, only rotationnal. Not the same thing.
Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
I was in map/remote view, looked in a passive provider chest, and clicked on a blueprint book, and that put a red X on it and a bot came and removed it. I'm not sure where the bot took it. I was trying to select a blueprint to build it, but I guess I did it wrong.
I didn't know clicking an item in a chest in map view would do that. Did I "trash" the item? Would the bot have moved it to a storage chest (I have several)?
Is there a way to make a logistics request for all blueprint books, or something like that?

Oh — I just managed to do it! I went to make a logistics request, found the blueprint book, requested 10 of them, and it brought me my book! Guess I answered my own question this time.

Press L (or a button on the top right) to open the list of Logistic networks in that surface, and their contents.
You can then search / click on items to see where they are.

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
I tried according to the Factorio "Console" website the long reach command but it doesn't work.
pls advise:
/c local reach = 10000
game.player.force.character_build_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_reach_distance_bonus = reach
