On some of the pictures that people post, above their factories there's an image of what the factory produces.
I don't have that in my game? Is it mod or something I need to switch on?
(thanks everyone )
No icon on factories?
Re: No icon on factories?
You mean like when an assembly machine is making electronic circuits or a chest has some inside of it, there is an icon are on top of the entity showing an electronic circuit? If so (and it's the only thing I can think of that you mean ) press the 'alt' key on your keyboard to toggle the icons on/off, it'll also toggle displaying the pollution on your map, though that can be difficult to see at times (or for people who are color-blind) since it's a just a slight red overlay
If 'alt' doesn't work, or you want to change it, then check the control binding by pressing escape, selecting options, selecting controls and then find the label "show info" (should be in the 'Game' tab, near the bottom of the first/left hand column)

There should definitely be a button for this added into UI somewhere, perhaps near the minimap, to toggle this. Hidden magic keys are annoying.
Re: No icon on factories?
hm...I honestly do not find it that difficult to simply check the control screen, but perhaps it should be mentioned in the tips and tricks to check the control screen for 'hidden' keys? idk, maybe it's just uncommon for people to bother checking out the options and controls when they start a new game (something I typically do), if that's the case then maybe but...what about the production screen and the console key and..., etc. etc.? (not to mention when multiplayer comes about we'll need a way to talk to other players in game, well preferably we wouldn't need to use external irc/teamspeak/mumble etc.)muzzy wrote:There should definitely be a button for this added into UI somewhere, perhaps near the minimap, to toggle this.

Re: No icon on factories?
We do plan to have a simple gui on the screen eventually. Toggling the alt mode would be there then (or opening the map, opening the crafting screen, etc.)

Sometimes I think, even if the FAQ would be on screen in font-size 300, blinking, underlined, red, they would ignore it and ask instead...
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.
