Factorio Forums

while having items in hand, you can place the actual thing in the world, or place ghosts by holding the shift-key.
when you run out of that item, now your cursor gets cleared.
then you cannot select that item for building anymore, not even for placing ghosts.
you cannot select it in the quickbar nor in-world by pressing 'q' when hovering the cursor on an already build item.

noob feelings.
yesterday my comuter did something strange, instead of waking up from sleep mode, it started up as if it was off before.
factorio was active when entering sleep mode.
I had to reinstall factrorio as if it wasn't installed yet, but other steam games were still fine.
I also had to enable the latest experimental again in the steam properties.
and reset all the factorio ingame options, altough the ingame mod options were still fine.
I missed that one.
