And you're sure the offset is set to one side of the belt, rather than centred?

That sounds like 59316, which is marked as fixed in the next release.

Bob, is it intended that mk2 medium and big poles require brass plates, but substations require aluminum plate? Mk3 and mk4 are consistent.

You can no longer recycle then, but I have a recycling machine mod anyways, so that's fine

I like the new robot recipe

Not sure about what to use for inserters. The new inserter colors seem a bit confusing at first. On the other hand the more vanilla-friendly ones don't have a long fast inserter for example. With the new ones enabled I could toggle everything which is nice

Kinda nice, but not quite intended, right? Or am I missing something?


Using all the latest versions of the mods.

It's an option in mod settings - it might be actually off by default. You can decide if productivity reduces speed or not.

actually i don't think productivity reduces speed at all.

there is another set of modules with "raw" prefix, which only add bonuses (eg. raw productivity, raw speed), that have no penalties. (eg. no additional polution or energy consumption), but i don't think i've seen any module that adds productivity and speed at same time, except god module, but god modules are disabled by default.

unless by speed reduction is meant penalty to speed (eg. production is slower), i think that is in efficiency module, not productivity. i'm too lazy to load factorio now

Is it possible that the new update (0.16.37) gave logistic chest MK3 only titanium textures in the inventory (at least that is what it looks like to me) Crafting interface is fine and shows the actuall models, in game as well just inventory

After .16.37 I had the same issue above with textures on logistic chests showing their base chest image (Brass Chest in my case), so I tried to revert Factorio using the beta tab in Steam to .16.36 so I could play - that seemingly broke something as any version I try under that beta tab now removes all the inserters from Bobs Inserters (and their recipes, along with recipes for Alien Artifacts from small artifacts) from my game on load.

Any ideas?

Cant load the autosave made under .16.37 in .16.36, but like you say - thats to be expected and not what I'm after.

I'm just trying to figure out if its something I did or is something likely broken by the update - I've tried reinstalling the Bobs inserters mod then retried a few diff of the betas, always removes the recipes.

But you mention in your other reply about the broken image and not having had a chance to look, so will wait and see what comes!
