Factorio Forums

This is a poll for ideas that you want to see implemented into the game. Post more here and I'll add them to the poll.

Also, before anyone posts it, I will not be adding multiplayer to the poll. The devs have already stated that its going to be a while because they can't afford to work on multiplayer yet.

I like the engagement, but have some questions: Do you have a special reason for that poll? Are there not many more suggestions/ideas? And I think decimal-points are so different to RTS-style-gameplay (The one is maybe 1-3 hours the other can take days or months).
I didn't say this is a bad poll (I polled too and not for "my" suggestions ), but the devs always made good decisions till now, I would like to keep that so. But that's just my own opinion.

I trust the devs to make good decisions, I just figure this will help them get a good idea of what the community wants. And I know I didn't list everything, but if people post more ideas, I'd be happy to add them to the poll.

Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes.

Depends on how they coded it to begin with. It actually might take that long, although it probably is a BIT of an exaggeration.

Huh, I'm so accustomed to calculate the working times for the customer, that I have problems to estimate the real time needed.

(to set this right : when I say I need for that job 1-3 hours, this means, that I make 4 other task, he never know and want to know, but must be done)
