How to balance main bus throughput priority?

Last night, my friends and I got a MP map to a decent late stage and were trying to balance loads on the iron line. I realized that our later factories were more important (they were making higher tier stuff) but they were getting much lower priority when everything is running. (If early factories aren't running, then their draw is shunted to later factories.)
How do I solve this? It's not immediately obvious. I can lower the priority of earlier things by splitting them further and recombining, but this just seems inelegant.
I've made a simple diagram. On the left is before, on the right is after adding a pipe factory. The pipes are causing the gears and yellow belts to drop in priority. If you don't plan this well, just place things in order of research, then ammo is always going to be made (which isn't a bad idea) but are pipes more important than belts? Not IMO. (Priority is always subjective, remember.)

So the question: How can I give things the same priority level? Is there any way to balance this load so that gears, pipes and belts are equal in priority?

Tesla Tower

Implemented Suggestions

I think we need more way of killing creepers and so I suggest the Tesla tower: a small building the same size as a regular tower that will stun enemies that pass near it, but since its attack is an aoe attack it requires a cool down after usage. The creepers it attacks wont be stunned like most electrical turrets do, instead it would make them weaker when attacking due to muscle spasms. These Tesla towers become extremely deadly when used along side the steam tower I suggested previously because water conducts electricity (to make this less op, when it is used with the steam tower because the electricity travels along the water it travels to the steam turret disabling it for a few seconds- extremely implausible but hey what can you do?)\
And maybe when there's more enemies there can be enemies like an electrical being(it's sci-fi after all) that can absorb the electricity the Tesla tower gives off making the being stronger?

Themed Design for Molten Salt Facility (Cheese's Concentrated Solar)
|
Energy Production

EDIT: Improved design in next reply.
Really digging Cheese's concentrated solar tower mod and came up with the goal to offset all/nearly all of our accumulator needs during the night. My buddy and I are not currently using nuclear, and while this design is pretty basic I figured I'd share to at least show the creator some credit.
I'm calling this theme a "Molten Salt Facility" because 1) That's cool and 2) That's the realistic application and 3) I was getting tired of the standard accumulator play and needed to have a design goal in mind. Stats are as follows with 2 facilities at this time:
186 MW production
200k Steam
32 Steam Turbines
16 Heat Exchangers
8 Storage Tanks
12 Pumps
1,104 Heliostats/Mirrors
With solar providing all of our power during the day, this setup provides enough steam to power through the entire night for a 186MW demand. We have a little extra power needs thanks to scaling up rocket launch production so the accumulators did kick in a bit, I just need to scale up another facility. It can scale up much more with additional turbines and steam storage tanks, but I'm pretty certain it needs a redesign to optimize the flow. Feel free to comment where this needs improvements. It's definitely not perfect.
Thanks for the cool mod, Cheese. Link to his mod: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/ch-concen ... stribution .

[2.0.28] Recycling recipes with only one ingredient confusingly named in factoriopedia
|
Won't fix.

When checking the recycle recipe in factoriopedia of one item, that is:
1. Made from only one type of item
2. Doesn't recycle into itself
It will display recycle recipe as "k × something recycling", where k is the floor of the recycling recipe output, but something is the original item.
E.g.:
Steel chest recycling recycles stell chest into 2 steel plates, but the recipe says "2 × steel chest recycling".
Iron stick recycling recipe is "0 × iron stick recycling".
It is the default behavior of naming a recipe with single output, but it's confusing.

[2.0.21] Flat GUI is not flat for Space platform hub.
|
Not a bug

What did you do?
Set Settings > Interface > Visualization > Flat character GUI : on.
What happened?
Now character inventory as other like tank inventory are displayed flat showing the logistics not as tab but as a fixed panel.
This worked in previous versions also for space platform hubs, (in like 2.0.10 or so), but does not work in the newest 2.0.21 anymore.
What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
Showing flat GUI since flat GUI setting is activated.
Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
Always

"content": "For the landing pad in particular, how many logistics requests do you expect to be set by a typical player? Except for Nauvis I currently use at most one row, which would still nicely fit a a two pane layout; compare a rare buffer chest, its UI has the same space requirement. Once we get scrollbars, whether that's due to larger inventory or additional request rows, I wish the requests section would take priority and could grow (maybe up to 50% height, excluding the entity picture). \nFor the rocket silo a two pane layout could probably work as well, if the vertical space for the (extra) rockets and the deliver/build/travel buttons could be condensed. \nFor the platform, I would have expected for schedule and requests to share a pane when tabbed, because every other UI always has the players inventory on the left. That said, in this case it's the platforms inventory, not the players, even if they're closely related (player sitting in the hub). \n \nWell… The above might not have answered the question you were asking, but rather \"How could the UI be modified for a two pane layout?\". To (somewhat) answer the actual question, offering an option similar to \"flat character GUI\" could make sense. For rocket silo and landing pad, I can see only of both panes being important for any given task. The \"problem\" is the platform hub, where I can see all combinations being useful: Requests and schedule naturally work together to define the job a platform is doing, a change in schedule typically also requiring a change in requests; the inventory allows picking items to help configure requests and/or schedule. (Special case: A platform that doesn't move doesn't care about the schedule.) \nOverall, current \"flat character GUI\" is far more important than any of these due to it being usable anywhere, whereas silo, pad and hub are tied to specific locations. \n \n \nWhile messing with the window size, to see how the small screen versions look, I noticed the rocket silo doesn't seem to switch to a tabbed version with small windows. (Bug? screenshot \n \n \n Rocket Silo small.png (301.82 KiB) Viewed 533 times \n \n ) Also, UIs don't dynamically switch when the window is resized.",

Type: Modpack & Overhaul
Status: Beta
Name: Starfall: Amator Phasma's Modpack
Multiplayer: supported and recommend
License: GPLv3, for indiviual mod licenses see the respective linked mod threads
Supported version: 0.16.35+
Tested-With-Factorio-Version: 0.16.37
Language: English (German version are planned in the future)
This is only the modpack core mod, you have to download and install the dependencies manually
Download: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/ap_modpack
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.16.64
- add an fix for playing with "Factorissimo2 2.2.3", at the cost of removing all yellow tint asphalt tiles if this mod is present.
- per player setting (true/false) for the notification sound if an meteorite on collision course were detected.
- per player setting (true/false) for the notification message if an meteorite on collision course were detected.
- Bugfixes: fixed wrong behavior in recycler recipe generator.
Unfortunately this change alter some recipes, after updating to this version, look your filter inserter.. again! ... sorry for this, but there was something I dont had in mind on the last change, the multipurpose materials that interupt the calculation for the scrap metal.
Example: there is unicomp that can be transformed from all ores into all ores, this results in failures, such as that plastic pipes produces iron scrap metal
Anytime! after updating or installing this mod!
1. Check all dependencies.
2. Quit the game.
3. Delete your "Mod-Settings.dat" -> You find this in your mod folder on Windows by pressing [Windows Key]+[R] then copy this in: "%appdata%\Factorio\mods" then hit Enter. On linux... you know where to find it, if not, go back to windows. On mac os ... who knows ... I don't!
4. Start the game.
5. Have fun!
Problems?
Try first to "delete your "Mod-Settings.dat" (I knows! but for the moment this is necessary!)
Report them!
If the game ends with an error msg. box (like: Fail to load mods:ap_modpack/lib/ap_tech_update.lua:59: attempt to index local 'p_technology(a nil value)') allways attatch a link to your last log file "factorio-current.log" best way to do it with: https://pastebin.com . You can and should always strip the first lines about your username or computer equipment.
Bases?
Hey if you play this mod and like to share your mid-game base with me, this would be great for my research: how can I make you more headache.
Just post a link in the forum or PM to me.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About this modpack:
This ModPack was originally intended only for a private game with friends,
but I have decided to make it public in the hope that others might like it.
It's just an beta version at the moment. (But only a few things to adjust, right now 3 ppl. play this on a test server to check it's working.)
The whole Modpack is build around the mods from Bob, Angel and Yuoki as the center, with a few own ideas in the corners for example:
- A complex uranium and plutonium treatment.
- Resources from all mods are integrated into science production.
- Many productions generate scrap metal that needs to be transported away and recycled.
- For processor production (high-end electronics), rare earths must be refined.
- Meteorites can hit everywhere on the map, thy bring a little bonus of ressources. (Impacts are not exaggerated and the chance that the base is hit is very low, are you the unlucky one?)
- Solar eclipses that interrupt your production of energy through solar cells. (You should have a backup plan.)
- Map generates with low resources in start area, all others are far away, but also there you will find only medium patches, find a way to deal with it! (You need trains!)
- Oil patch generation can be a slap in the face, but there are other ways to produce oil! (on our test server there is a rich field, but miles away ~ 1200 tiles)
- More on a later date... (working on the last implementations...)

Todo In the next days:
- Search for bugs and fix them (WIP)
In the future:
- create a tutorial for FNEI (how to use it)
- create a tutorial for Bob's inserter control (Mous hover over inserter, press shift+e)
- integrade more yuoki recipes (most Engines (Addon) recipes disabled at the moment)
Features - This list is incomplete - Function: Meteorites impacts (they will generate some ore for you)
- Function: Solar eclipse events.
- Function: integration of all mods into science production.
- Function: Complex uranium and plutonium processing (compared to the vanilla game).
- New buildings: MK2 & MK3 nuclear reactors and heatpipes
- New building: Breeding reactor (needed for breeding weapon grade plutonium)
- Function: Scrap metal recycling system, this scrap metal comes from production of higher tier buildings and from some intermediates.
- New building: Recycler machine, needed to recycle scrap metal.
- Game balance: Steam engines rebalance. (its a little bit harder to generate power)
- Game balance: Solar panels rebalance. (its a little bit easier to generate power)
- Game balance: transport belts (speeds decreased)
- Game balance: construction and logistic bots (speed, pickup capacity, energy consumption, more energy capacity) - (All construction bots have increased values.)
- Game balance: removed bobs fusion powered bots (they are too overpowered )
- Game balance: rebalance train speeds (no more light speed!)
- Changed: around 400 recepies to fit in this pack and work 'better' with all mods.
- Function: burner inserter can leech fuel from dorp and pick target, and can chain fuel from fuel slot to the next building.
- Function: sort all items into costum categories.
- Game balance: Modules rebalance (they are less powerfull now)
- Function: radioactivity from radioactive items (dmg over time if hold or in your inventory)
- Function: prevent voiding items by destroying containers. That was too easy apart from that, 'all' (yeah, sort of... working on some edge cases...) items have a use case.
- Game balance: New recipes for CPUs over rear earth extraction (samarium, europium, dysprosium, neodymium)
- Function: Waterfill recipe added (You need barrels with water, made from steel, happy steel waste )
- Game balance: Geothermal rebalance (less effective but earlier in the tech-tree)
- Game balance / Function: integrated yuoki items/machienes into the tech-tree
- and more will write it down soon(tm)
Future - Nothing! First I have to finish what I have now.

"content": "Hey! I have been playing on your modpack--its awesome! \n \nI wanted to talk to you about this modpack being featured as one of the \"officially endorsed\" modpacks for a new tool I am currently writing for Factorio that will serve as a new launcher.

Any Active Players Around? (Feedback Request)

Yuoki Industries

Been enjoying Factorio for a few years now.. and got a few 100's of hrs or so in Vanilla + Yuoki.. as well as Yuoki with Bob's, Angel's, K2 and others..
It's kind of bothered me that parts of the mod have been left unbalanced or incomplete (bugged?)
So I have been working on a "Fix's" mod to make some of the adjustments that have bugged me..
(please keep expectations low, I do not consider myself a programmer or graphics artist )
I have also been adding some conditional cross-compatibility for detected mods.. currently just Bob's & Angel's but K2 is also planned later..
Some of the stuff I have been playing with is shown below..
Would love feedback on the changes or ideas you might have!
0.8-SS-Turbine Generator-S
Changes:
Replaced Requirement "Iron Gear Wheel" with "Reinforced Gear"
Adjusted Consumption and Max. temperature to better match Vanilla Boilers should now be 3:5 ratio I think for max output?
Reason: Wanted to make them a little more difficult to make.. but because they are kinda an earlyish game item..
and because I could not figure out where they fit into the power production properly due to consumption and max temp vs power output I reworked it.
Small Electric Motor
Changes:
Reworked the positioning of the output
Changed size from 2x2 to 2x1
Reason: I am guessing this was meant to be used with the transmission shaft?
However, I always find working with those to be kinda bugged..
It never made sense to me why Hydraulic Pressure Fluid would be transmitted down a shaft vs a Pipe..
There was also a bug with output alignment if you were using Sqeakthru mod so sometimes it wouldn't output when blueprinting.
Also just felt right that it would be a smaller footprint based on the Image of the machine.
Angels Smelting - Pure Iron Pure Copper
If Angel's Smelting mod is detected the following is unlocked...
Changes:
Added to 1st Tier Recipe for Molten Copper using Pure Copper
Added to 1st Tier Recipe for Molten Iron using Pure Iron
Added a 1st Tier Recipe for Molten Steel using Pure Iron (this one is costly and low output, needs a balancing pass)
Reason: Early game Yuoki its good to be using Pure Iron and Pure Copper...
But using Pure's does not make a lot of sense if you get into Ingot smelting in Angel's Smelting mod,
So I wanted to make it viable at least early game to keep producing Pure's
Angels Smelting - Yuoki - Dryer Separator
If Angel's Smelting mod is detected the following is unlocked...
Changes:
Adjusted Recipe to use a "Frank & Peppe Industiral Smelter"
Reason: While I know the Frank & Peppe is kind of resource-intense to produce (requires a bunch of Techanic Signs)
I felt it made sense to fall back to this machine when playing with Angel's Smelting mod loaded with bobs ore's...
You could be playing up to SEVERAL hours before you unlock 3rd Tier science to be able to produce that Electric Furnace it requires
and there is a few use cases early game to want to be using the Dryer & Separator early early-mid game already.
I have also done a few other adjustments I have not shown above as well for integration with Angel's Refining
Ore Sorting which results in "Slag" I have replaced Yuoki Slag with Angel's Slag item type in all Recipes so they are cross-compatible.
This means Any Yuoki Recipe that Produced OR used Yuoki Slag.. they now produce or use Angel's slag.
The mod is not currently published anywhere at the time of writing this post.
Still working on a few things I consider "bugs" in the Yuoki Mod as well as some balance and recipe adjustments.
But I do plan to publicly publish the mod on Factorio Mods once its in a more impactful state.
Any and all feedback is welcomed!

[2.0.9] Undo can add extra wires to buildings moved w/ cut
|
Pending

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=116978

Under the right conditions, deleting a power pole (or other wire connected building) then using undo can restore wires (Copper, red, or green) from an earlier state, or even create new wire connections which never existed.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Build 3 medium power poles close together - close enough that wires can be connected between all 3.
2. Use Cut + Paste to move a power pole, while still being close to the other 2.
3. (Optional) Remove all wires using the wire tool.
4. Delete all 3 power poles
5. Undo the deletion.
After performing the undo, all 3 power poles will be connected together, regardless of whether or not they were connected before. This applies to both copper wires, and red/green wires.

"content": "This still falls into the same classification as 118468 . When electric pole is removed, in order to attempt to keep connections it does a \"rewire\" operation which has no access to the player removing it because in many cases it simply cannot have access to it (like when entity is ordered deconstruction and removed later by a construction robot). Scenario in the provided video is just the same scenario and removing 3 electric pole ghosts with one deconstruction planner action is irrelevant because under the hood, game is unable to remove 3 entities at the same time, they are removed in certain order. When first ghost electric pole is removed (in this case it is the leftmost pole in the topmost 2 tile high row) it does rewire connecting other 2 poles with extra wire and then those 2 other electric poles are removed - here if you undo, all entities are restored but you start seeing the wires that were added in the \"in between\" state. It is not the undo that adds extra wires, they are added when removing poles but you only get to see extra wires after undo is performed.",

Yeah, that's kind of my thinking too tbh. I mean yes it works atm. But not exactly 'working as intended'. But I think this is more an issue of there not being enough viable alternative options... yet. But as I think you were the one that said the tank will be coming I think that it won't be the optimal offensive option for much longer.
I guess it's mostly an issue (at least in my eyes) that the armor and combat drone later techs are quite research expensive. And those are ultimately what make biter base assaulting a possibility. That all being said. The rocket range adjustment that was made in 0.8.0 has actually been helping a lot in its own right. I've noticed I can actually get a few rockets off before my car starts taking significant damage from the worms and in some cases if I can deal with/tank the biters I can literally just sit outside their range for a short period of time whittling down their hp then retreating and rinsing and repeating. Obviously this doesn't work on the larger bases, but on the smaller ones that tend to pop up around my factory it's certainly viable. Much more so than it was before, where even trying to get close enough to fire off 2 rockets ended in a nearly destroyed car. Also being able to drive into a repair bots range and get repaired then rinse & repeat without having to get out pick up car then re-drop car has helped a lot. The whole getting out of the car then picking it up then dropping it again was awkward.

I know they don't really count much (might be nice defensive with blueprints though). White phosphorus grenades could be a nice item though I think artillery turrets (currently) would be a bit over kill, same with artillery worms also slight issue with the fact that you can not outrun missiles, either the old actual rockets nor the new worm ones, they never stop, at least I do not think they do. It could have been fixed, but I kind of doubt it. But if they are implemented, you'd need a way to protect your base, either SAMs or forcefields. As for suicide drones, interesting but I'd rather be able to have combat drones patrol the area and then order then to follow me when I'm ready to take the fight to the enemy (or even just send them off on their own), though I wouldn't mind combat drones suiciding if they were about to die. As for salvo-type launcher love the idea (devs would have to separate weapon reload times though, or make it so that you can quickly drop a weapon and switch to a faster one). Heavy flamers, sure no complaints whatsoever \n \nas for the hive clusters, I've always wanted to see the hives (especially the old ones that actually looked like buildings) form into one giant building instead of just have lots of them. Instead of having little cottage looking things everywhere it would have been nice to have them build up into massive palaces with many doors, now it'd simply be larger and more grotesque spawners (most likely) but more visually pleasing (to me) than simply massive numbers of small hives (also, massive health so you'd really need those weapons).",

Instead of having like 14 generic bots, use the same costumization that the modular armour has. We already got shield, laser, battery and power elements. Using these may add more depth and rpg elements to the game in a meaningfull way. In this way you could make a tactical squad like in X-com.",

And for grinding for experience, well, you could just gain experience from things you'd be doing anyway, like killing biters, or building things in your suit. \n \n \n \n \nI know this is old, but I have a few comments. \n \nClasses: I like the general idea, but some of the things could be harder to implement. \nEngineer: having cheeper recipes... Doable, but you'd effectively need multiple sets of recipes, 1 for the engineer, 1 for the factories, and possible another set for every other class too, depending. I suppose an easier way would be Engineer overide recipes, so they use they default recipe for an item, unless a specific recipe is specified specifically for the engineer class. \nFighter: well, no notes there. \nScientist: Cheaper science... well, how would this work in multiplayer? \n \n \nAn alternative, and easier solution for the Engineer could be a personal Productivity guage. like having a productivity module installed in the player entity, so if you make 10 runs of copper wire, you get an 11th run for free, so instead of ending up with 20 wires, you get 22. The bonus could possibly be higher(or increased with experience). The problem is, how to choose what this bonus applies to, and if it should keep track of indevidual recipes, you might not craft 10 wires in a row, does it reset when you choose a different recipe, or does the bonus gague just fill for everything you build and apply to the item you're crafting when it fills? The best solution would be a seperate gague for every item you can craft, so when you eventually build a 10th item, you get the 11th for free, but it could end up being messy internally keeping a track of it for every possible recipe, then there's the issue that currently, most of these gagues and things reset when saved and loaded, including fluids inside a factory. \n \nFighter, perhaps a health bonus, and/or damage output multiplier bonus? \n \nScientist... well, i have no sugestions here, I just don't think this idea would work. \n \nA sugestion could be miner: improved mining speed, though I suppose this becomes redundant when you're automating miners, in fact since you get a burner mining drill for free, you can play a game where you only have to mine 1 tree, or piece of coal, and don't have to mine anything ever again (though it is tricky without chopping down more trees for wood untill you get construction bots to remove them for you) \n \n \nanother thing you mentioned is experience gain, well, there are 2 directions you can take classes and unlockables... \n \nThe first is an EVE Online method, where everyone can unlock and learn everything, different \"Classes\" just start with different unlocks, and as you spend points, you learn more things. You could have a single entry point in different positions for each class, and as you go through the tree, you can learn everything from all classes, or you could have multiple small trees in specialised areas, say one aimed at combat that gives things like bonuses to health, resistances, and damage output, and another for the engineer, with mining speed, construction speed, and personal productivity bonuses, different classes just have different points spend in different areas. \n \nThings like the Damage bonuses, Toolbelt, Logistic slots etc could be removed from science and placed within your personal Experience tree system. \n \nThe second direction is a unique level up tree for every class (so only the engineer would have the engineer tree, only fighter has the fighter free etc), and honestly, in a game like this, I don't recomend it. \n \nI'd recomend the multiple small trees method, and every class has access to all trees, they just start with a few points already spent in different areas. \n \n \nThe next point is... where do you get experience from? Only enemy kills would be a bad idea, not everyone wants to hunt things down to gain experience, but it is a good way to gain experience. Crafting items yourself could also be a good way to gain experience. \n \nA question you also need to ask yourself is... is there a single experience gague, so if you spend a couple of hours crafting constantly, you can gain enough experience to max out your combat skills, or seperate experience gagues so you have to go out fighting before you can level up your combat skills?",

"content": "I have read a lot of comments here that indicate many people have no idea how well RPG and RTS can go together. I would suggest they go play the Warlords Battelcry (WBC) series of games and become enlightened. \n \nThe RPG elements need to be seen as both of these: \n \n1. A way for players to try significantly different approaches to the game without just intentionally crippling themselves by doing things like \"no laser turrets\" or \"no solar\" or \"no burning coal\" games. Rather they can play a character with certain strengths and weaknesses one game, and a different character with a very different set of strengths and weaknesses in the next game. (In WBC playing as an Empire Merchant is vastly different than playing as a Fey Alchemist which is vastly different than playing as a Dwarf Tinker which is vastly different than playing as any of the hero types that specialize in various flavors of combat. Among many other things, a merchant has skills in acquiring resources, an alchemist has skills in transmuting materials, a tinker has engineering skills that boost building HP, dwarves have the ability to do some free building repairs - all of which are relevant to base building and maintenance. And that's really just scratching the surface of the available differences.) \n \n2. A way for the Factorio developers to reach a wider audience. For example, if a character can choose between developing their personal combat skills and weapons vs developing (yet to be added!) autonomous robot armies, then the developers can target both players that like to get their hands dirty in real-time combat and those that prefer to hang back at the base and issue orders (and perhaps really detest anything remotely like \"twitch gaming\") -- and they can do so without either type of player feeling like they are \"really missing out\" because they are not fully utilizing everything they have available, because they are in fact making use of what they have developed their particular character to be good at. \n \nAnother possibility is to borrow a feature from RPGs (as WBC does) that can be used to break up the monotony that playing Factorio can currently end up being. And that feature is quests. Adding quests to Factorio would certainly take some thought though... One possibility is having special \"long range scanners\" that detect \"alien tech\". Maybe if the player can get to the tech quick enough they can obtain some kind of bonus. (Not sure what tech biters can have though as they are so stupid. Maybe other aliens have crash-landed there in the past and got eaten by the biters.) Another possibility is requests for resources. Maybe \"pickup ships\" will stop by and pick up resources/parts they have previously requested and which the player had promised to deliver within a certain time. (There might be some unique rewards for these, such as an \"Assembly Machine 4\", or a small stack of \"Long Range Laser Turrets\", or a special item that can go in one's power armor.) There could also be \"Clear and secure sector X\" type quests, though there would need to be some story to go along with that. (Maybe some building complex then starts getting auto-built there and is intended to be used to house/feed/etc. colonists when they arrive. The player then has to keep that building defended all the way to the end of the game.) \n \nSome people have pointed out that Factorio is more about the factory and less about the character. While trying to use that as an argument for staying that way is nothing but circular logic, there is more that can be done on the factory side of things while still giving an RPG-like customization feel, and that is \"side creation\" as per the game \"Warlords 3: Dark Lords Rising\". That is, at the start of the game a player may choose to customize their \"side\". What that does is give you a certain number of points to spend, and you can select what units will be available in game. For Factorio this could include selecting what bonuses/nerfs the side will receive and what techs/buildings/weapons/bots/etc. will be available in the game. (You still have to research/construct them in the game. The ones not selected, however, will be completely unavailable in the given game.) \"Buying\" each one costs points, and in some cases there may be a \"synergy charge\" - e.g., solar panels and accumulators have a synergistic relationship, so the cost of getting both would be more than the sum of their individual costs. (The game \"Stars!\" has a similar system for race customization, and like WL3:DLR it also uses a \"synergy charging\" system to maintain balance.) \n \nThanks. That's all I needed to hear. \n \nI don't care how bad Engineer is in terms of \"game play advantage\", I'd play it just to reduce that oh-so-annoying \"you're not close enough to place that\" nonsense. (When oh when will they just make it so if you're not close enough, the character just auto-walks a bit closer? Instead they just beep at me and not do what I want.) \n \nI find that unless I really go out of my way to play the game differently (which generally means intentionally playing the game in a \"stupid\"/non-optimal way), factories are really only superficially different. \n \nI'm currently playing a \"no laser turrets\" game with all default settings. I'm already at the point where I am setting up blue circuits so I can make power armor, and my gun turrets have killed all of 7 biters. Gun ammo (for use in guns) is really not a significant strain on my factory. (Making combat robots has consumed much more resources than gun ammo, though I believe even that is still insignificant compared to what's been spent on research and modules.) If you kill all the spawners that are in/near your pollution range, then biters/spitters (almost) never attack your base. \n \nTo those few people that said that the game should reward the player for hand-crafting items: What are you smoking? \n(And you're already getting \"rewarded\", as hand crafting doesn't cost energy, doesn't produce pollution, doesn't require a factory, doesn't require you to travel to said factory or set it up, and automatically produces all prerequisite items in the required amounts. The devs should make it so hand-crafting produces way more pollution than using an assembly machine. They could even ding your health to represent all of the times you accidentally hit your thumb with your pick-axe while trying to use your pick-axe to place copper traces on a circuit board. And they should make hand-crafting about 10x slower than using an assembly machine, maybe less so for lower-tech stuff and more so for higher-tech stuff.)",

[2.0] Map and zoom functionality

It seems that major changes were made to how the map and zoom setting are now set and applied.
Zoom mods used to rely on player.zoom_to_world, player.open_map and player.close_map. These no longer exist and it is not at all clear how to convert such mods to use the player.setcontroller function.
What is the equivalent of these functions in 2.0?
How is zoom level set now in remote view?
I can call player.setcontroller with type = defines.controllers.remote and it enters a new map mode, but I can't find an elegant way to exit this map mode.
Can we please get some clarity on how to re-implement zoom and map features that used to work just fine in 1.0?

To help making my big overhaul mod I made a little batch script that scans all the ".lua" files in the directory "./prototypes" (yes, even subfolders) and append each corresponding require to a fresh data.lua script.
In case that script is of any use to somebody else, here is it: (just put it in a text file and rename it with a .bat extension)
Code: Select all @echo off
del data.lua
echo --This file has been automatically generated using Xaetral's batch script>>data.lua
for /r %~dp0prototypes %%f in (*.lua) do call :func %%f
goto end
:func

echo require("%z:.lua=%")>>data.lua
goto :eof
:end
echo --This file has been automatically generated using Xaetral's batch script>>data.lua

As a person who likes tight spot almost as much as freeplay, I decided to add seven levels to the campaign, including a bonus level.
To use extract the contents of this zip file into the <factorio root>/data/base/campaigns/tight-spot folder. If you are playing on steam, this will be in your SteamLibrary/steamapps/common folder.
Next, you will need to replay level 5 from a new game, to unlock level 6. You may find it slightly harder than it used to be.
Installation overwrites a few files from the original campaign. Including localisation files for the campaign.
Known issues:
-Wires cannot be refunded. To mitigate this, the price of wires has been reduced.
-If time passes too slowly at x64, you can speed it up by opening the map.
-Sulfuric acid mining rigs sometimes forget that they are sulfuric acid in the upper left of ore patches.
-Untested features in the bonus level.
All levels are beatable, probably.

Hey,
I love the LuaSchedule, but I'm mussing bulk operations a bit.
So what I would want to have is:
get_interrupts
returns a array/table of all the interrupts
add_interrupts
lets you add all the interrupts inside a array/table at once
For now I only have these two, but there could be more.

Undisputably, Labor of Love goes to Factorio.
I'd have loved to nominate it for the best OST too, but I guess Steam excluded it from the category, because a big fat "2.0 for all + DLC" update doesn't quite count enough to be allowed into this nomination unlike a separate App & ID being released onto the store? That's unfortunate and I wonder if devs can/would like to do something about this?

I was specifically told by factorio@factorio.com to post my post in bug reports. It is not off topic, so uh... fuck you for being lazy and not telling me why my posts are removed.

When you update mods in bulk and have one of them halfway through the list selected, when the list shift the text color becomes black until the cursor interacts with it again.

[2.0.13] Thruster side panel doesn't fit screen on default UI scale
|
Minor issues

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=119141

Hello,
when hovering mouse over a thruster in space platform, a side panel appear with info such as fuel consumption and thrust.
On my 1920x1080 monitor, when UI scale is default, the bottom of the panel is truncated.
This is specialy an issue when the ship is moving since the "travel" window increase in size. The thrust info part becomes hidden. (See screenshot below)
I don't know if there is a way to scroll this side panel.
The issue can be worked around by reducing UI scale to 75%, but it is then quite small.
Illustration :

I have this mod Loot-Chest-Plus trying to work with 2.0. But somehow my guerrilla-coding-skills don't suffice and any help is appreciated.
What I did so far:
- I changed all global to storage
- changed the recipe to the new format
- set up a github page
When I place the chest, there are no more errors, but also no loot-collecting. I get an error when I place down two chests, since only one is allowed
The error: Code: Select all Error while running event LootChestPlus::on_built_entity (ID 6)
__LootChestPlus__/control.lua:146: Arguments count error for 'spill_item_stack': Expected 1 argument but 4 were given
stack traceback:

I think that there should be an option to let space platforms that need materials to build to launch a rocket that is not filled to capacity. This is because this would let you just build a ghost platform and a rocket silo set to automatically deliver supply's and it would build the platform in its entirety with out having to manually deliver things if for example you needed 6 asteroid collectors instead of the 10 it take to fill a rocket.
here is an example of of the problems that it can cause viewtopic.php?f=18&t=121789

Upcycles whichever recipe you set. Initial setup is going to require some explaining.
Can set quotas for each quality. This is done on the popup menu when placing the blueprint, along with the recipe.
In the combinators on the left containing the qualities, delete all empty conditions. Wish the blueprint would do this automatically, oh well.
In the constant combinator you set the upper limit for how much of each quality can be in the logistics network. Anything exceeding this gets scrapped. Omitting a quality scraps everything.
In the requester chest you set the ingredients for the recipe. Must have AT LEAST enough to craft the item twice.
The selector combinator(bottom right) controls in which order you want it to craft. Low quality to high? Other way around? Pick whichever you want.
The lights on the left show which qualities are queued up for crafting. The lights on the top right(excluding the far right one) indicate at what stage the crafting is. One green light when its the first craft. Two green lights when its doing its second craft. This has to do with the EM plants' innate productivity bonus. This is also the reason why you should NOT use this for blue circuits since its productivity bonus changes based on research.
You might needs to jump start the system to get it going. This can be done by disabling and re-enabling the red wire of the first condition of the bottom right combinator.
After that, just watch it go.
On a final note, I recommend setting the Legendary quota to 0 for recipes that can use productivity modules for maximum efficiency. Just craft the legendary one elsewhere.

Starting on a small isle?? Read this before you post!

Minor issues

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=3492

There have been several issues, that your character spawns at a small isle. No way to the continent....
This is not a bug!
This issue scraps the definition of a bug: It won't enable you to play, but it's so soon in the game, that it is obvious: You need just to restart the map.
The problem with this issue is: How should it be solved? Should the developers add a boat? Bridges? Or should the map-generator be changed, so that he doesn't create such start-positions? There is no good answer yet. But it is obviously very important to add more game content!
So: Sorry for the inconvenience! This issue is of course on the todo-list of the developers and will be fixed at some time; till then we (the players) need to live with it.

That makes it a flaw, a fault, an issue, and by certain definitions \"a bug\" - even if it's doing exactly what it's currently supposed to do (randomized map, no validation) \n \nHowever, the bug isn't that you start on an isle, the bug is that your starting conditions prevent you from playing the game. Plenty of different approaches to fixing that, some of which involve not touching the map generation at all (for example, let the player swim and introduce swimming/flying enemies so this can't be abused)",

Some players managed to see that after they played 7 and more hours. And any change to the map generation changes also it's determinism. \n \nThe problem is, that at the actual state it is - I estimate - just some hours to add a boat to the game (if you have the pure rendered graphics ready), but it takes much longer (weeks? Month?) to bring the map generator in a state, where he delivers maps, that hit your criteria of being a \"nice map\". And there is no way around it: it will take longer to generate the map then, because of those checks. \n \nThinking also to needs like symmetrical maps, where you play together/against (multiplayer) and some other stuff, it is my deepest opinion, that it makes no sense to make the map generator following some more or less special rules to force it in end effect to generate a landscape, which significantly looks different to the rest. \n \nInstead it makes much sense to enable the player to handle every situation with the map or whatever by using game elements. Like bridges or like a boat. You ask how I can have a boat? Add two wood to the inventory. Or guarantee, that every island has minimum two trees on it. It's a secondary question. \n \nAnd it is much more gameplay, if the editor is enhanced, so that you can generate cool maps on your own, or add scenarios, which guarantees that you don't start on an island.",

If these nests can't be reached, or rather, these nests cannot properly path to the player, this could cause the game to display the \"You have landed quite unfortunate, doomed on an island. Regenerate map Y/N?\" message that others have suggested before, or the game could move the player to the nearest shore and run the check again. \n \nMaybe the pathfinding AI isn't developed enough to exhibit this function yet, and the solution will be fixed in map generation, but as others have argued generating maps where the player is on an island might be a natural part of map generation and not a bug at all.

If yes, then do nothing, if no, then use a standard spiral search pattern to place the player 10 chunks away and repeat this process again. If it is necessary that the player must start at origin coordinates, either you have to spawn a new map, or have the ability to offset either the coordinates to the new origin, or add the ability to have the player not always start at the origin. Perhaps another check could be added: if the pathfinding AI cannot find a way to get to the nearest enemy spawner (i.e. player is on a medium island or smaller), then rather than giving the player a random hint on start, the first hint given to the player at the start of the game be a hint on how to create a boat. This would decrease the chance that the player chops down all the trees on their island before they think to make a boat. \n \nIn one of my first maps, a spawner was created on an island in the middle of a large lake, and my base surrounds the lake.

Hi all,
I am currently looking to find/create a semi-casual Discord for linking AU/NZ players who love this crazy mind-melter of a game. If I create the discord I will also attempt to setup my own home server that will run 1-2 games based upon the consensus of the group, likely 1 vanilla and another modded.
If anyone is interested in joining me or has a server/discord already setup, please reach out.

However, with the increase of modules, there are more and more recipes, and signals may also disrupt module coverage, so I thought of MC's "AE2" and Satisfactory's "Digital Storage". The former requires setting templates in advance to determine the recipes, while the latter allows you to choose different routes according to different recipes (provided you have to unlock them).
From this, I thought about whether a module can easily realize circuits. First, "Helmod" and "Factory Planner" can query recipes, and use this method to turn recipes into circuits, and then land on machines. Then use robot logistics to realize digital electric control factories, which can greatly improve the utilization efficiency of machines.
The following is a video I found, and the corresponding blueprint in the video is attached.
I hope someone can package and make a simple mod for people like me who don't understand circuits.

When game is set to german language, there is a strip of wasted space in the train stop UI. This problem does not exists when the game language is set to default/english.

I had not noticed the the influence of the game language in my initial bug report , which moderator Loewchen classified as "not a bug", presumably because it could not be reproduced.
This bug is very similar to another bug report I made, that was acknowledged and fixed by Klonan.
Please fix this, thank you very much!

for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
local entitys = surface.find_entities_filtered{name = "v2-ammo-stowage"}

Bot "Minimum Operation Time"

This seems a bit strange name of a metric to me. I think that this actually means "Maximum Operation Time" if it is the time it takes for the bot to operate at something at the maximum distance.
Am I misunderstanding?

"content": "Sorry to enter an older post, but I thought I would add my \"two cents.\" \n \nFor a construction bot on Nauvis (I've yet to go to another planet... I'm being too cautious) I see Speed: 13 + 9.7 km/h and Maximum flying reach: 1095 m. Fortunately, it's easy to convert m to km and back (multiply/divide by 1000). The speed is 22.7 km/h or 22699.98 m/h. That's (gets out calculator) 6.305556 m/s; so it would take about 173.8 seconds to travel 1095 m. That's 2 minutes and 53 seconds, which is equal to the \"Minimum Operational Time.\" \n \nSo.... Um... (looks up the definition of minimum), that's definitely NOT the \"minimum\" operational time, but the \"maximum\" operational time. Right? \n \nJust in case it was a \"language thing\" I decided to do a \"deep dive.\" Wube is out of the Czech Republic according to the Factorio Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorio . the Czech Republic has the Czech language (CS in the language selection if anyone is curious), but also speak English, German and Russian according to Czech Universities https://www.czechuniversities.com/artic ... h-language . To test if it was a language thing I changed the language first from English to French (the one I knew I would mostly recognize and be able to type into Google Translate the most easily), then French to Czech. I didn't try German, I didn't want to try and figure out Russian letters so... \n \nThe phrasing is the same in the three instances I tested (English, French, and Czech). So... I don't know, maybe a cultural thing? \n \n \nOn my part, I would second Nypyren's idea of rephrasing it to: \"time between charges\" (maybe add \"maximum\"?) or simply changing \"minimum\" to \"maximum optimal\" operation time. \nRealistically the \"Minimum Operational Time\" would be the time it takes a bot to go from where it's placed to the nearest Roboport or job (and then Roboport). \n \n Post Script \nOne thing I have noticed as I've played with this expansion is that there are a few odd wordings for some things.

"content": "The Operational Time depends on power, not speed. After all, wouldn't you agree that the time available to fly relies on the battery power, not the actual speed of the unit? Power = Energy / Time, and energy consumption is energy over a given second. (1 Watt = 1 J / second = 1 energy consumption.) For a given Energy Capacity, E_max, the Consumption, C, ranges between \"Moving consumption\" and \"Max. consumption,\" and these two data points are shown on the info box you mentioned. \n \nNow, you want to know minimal Operational Time, which in turn relies on power available to the bot. Well, the minimal Operational Time needs to be less than or equal to the Operational Time, right? So, let's start there. Operational Time depends on the varying power consumption. Remember what I said above? \"Consumption\" (here, energy consumption) varies between \"Moving consumption\" (the lowest possible energy consumption) and the \"Max. consumption\" (the highest possible energy consumption). If we let C_min represent the former and C_max represent the latter, we have a range, C_min to C_max, whose units are that of consumption, expressed conventionally as joules per second, or watts, which represents power, not speed. \n \nOK, we have a power consumption range, now we just need a time. If energy consumption is energy over time, then its inverse is time over energy. If we know maximum energy (which is expressed as \"Energy capacity\" in Factorio, E_max, also on the info box), we know the Operational Time, T. To be formal, let \"Energy capacity\" (shown in info box) = E_max. You now have the minimal Operational Time, T_min. T_min = E_max / C_max . C_max is chosen here because the minimal operational time occurs under circumstances that consistently require the maximal amount of energy consumption. Also, here, division represents the inverse. You can also compute the maximal Operational Time by analogy: T_max = E_min / C_min = E_max / C_min. (In the Factorio video game, C has a range, but E doesn't [false in real life], so E_min = E_max, always.) \n \nGiven this line of reasoning, let's verify that the already shown T_min, 18 seconds on the info box, is correct. Now, to be fair, I'm from the future, and your values have been updated in the Factoriopedia. Here's what I see for a normal logistic bot: \n- \"Max. consumption\" = C_max = 83.25 kW \n- \"Moving consumption\" = C_min = 15.0 kW + 65.25 kW = 75.25 kW \n- \"Energy capacity\" = E_max = 1.5 MJ \n- \"Minimum operational time\" = T_min = 18 s \n- \"Maximum flying reach\" = D_max = 289 m \n- \"Speed\" = 10.8 + 47.0 km/h = 57.8 km/h (again, this is an update, from the future, regarding what you said, \"13 + 9.7 km/h,\" or 22.7 km/h) \n \nUsing the above formula in red, T_min = E_max / C_max = 1.5 MJ / 83.25 kW = 1500 kJ / (83.25 s/kJ) = 18.018 s, or ~18 s . By contrast, the maximal operational time you accidentally computed as 2 minutes and 53 seconds is actually T_max = E_max / C_min = 1.5 MJ / 75.25 kW = 1500 kJ / (75.25 s/kJ) = ~20 s . So, the logistic bot runs between 18-20 seconds before a recharge. \n \nIf you apply efficiency modules, C_min drops, and T_max increases. T_min improves with higher quality logistic bots. \n \n\nHopefully, this explanation clarifies the formula involved and reveals that this formula is not a \"cultural thing.\" Factoriopedia could include something like this explanation, however, to avoid confusion.",

Does anyone know of a method of upgrading memory and focus? \n \nJokes aside, I'm assuming that your formulas show how the wording is correct, right? Ok, fine. \n \n-= And I need to preface myself here by saying I truly, and honestly mean absolutely no offense or insult... but... seriously, I NEED an editor... =- \n \nWhat you have done is, however, sadly, utterly irrelevant. \nWhy? \nIt's still confusing. \nFactorio isn't a thesus. \nIt isn't a user manual for a nuclear power plant or nuclear armaments. \nIt is a game. If the wording is confusing on something it should be changed... or explained as thoroughly as you have --- and then explained again in a way that someone without a math degree can understand in five seconds. \n \nThe wording, as it stands, may be correct, mathematically, however, even with your example, I still disagree with it. \nYou are correct that the minimum/maximum operational time depends on the available power - and, by the way, there are no efficiency upgrades for bots, so, relevance? there are, however, \"speed\" upgrades, which influence this equation. i.e. no way to increase energy capacity without quality, but there is a way to increase speed - but only until you take into consideration that bots >DO NOT DIE (or stop)< when they run out. They continue to operate indefinitely, but only seek a charge until recharged fully. \n \nSo, even if we go with the assumption that the equation you provided is the basis of the wording, the wording itself is still incorrect. \nAbsolutely no one cares about the \"minimum\" amount of time - which changes per planet and per upgrade in speed - that the bot can operate. They care about the \"maximum\" amount of time between needed charges. \nAnd, listing a minimum suggests that there is a maximum. Which, arguably, there isn't, as bots (once again) >DO NOT DIE< when they run out. They don't stop functioning either, they just stop doing anything but seek a recharge. \n \nSo, why list a \"minimum\" operational time? Why not list the maximum? Why list something that only those digging into the code will care about, and not what the general user will need... actually need to know? \n \nHow long? \n\"How long.\" \nHow long will my bots continue to operate? \nThe minimum is irrelevant to that question; is it not? Why do we care about the minimum amount of time? (Please, tell me.) Don't we care about the maximum amount of operational time? How long before a bot needs to stop doing what it's doing and seek a charge? No, not the \"minimum\", but, instead, the maximum amount of time between charges. \n \nFinally, with regard to the \"cultural thing\" I wasn't referencing formulas. While those, bizarrely, CAN BE cultural (see \"mathematical notation by culture\"), I was more referring to the strange choice in how a number of things have been worded in Factorio. This is only one, I've joined in on the conversation of another. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=120191 is another. \nSorry for the confusion on that. -- but, seriously, I absolutely LOVE Factorio, but why are some of the things worded the way they are? \n \nOne final question I feel that I need to start asking everyone who responds to me: \"Who are you in relation to the game? General user? Code digger/hacker/moder? Wube associate? Or part of the game development team?\" \nThe reason I ask is so that I understand your background with regards to your answer. \nMe? I'm a general user (and, yes, as you can take by my joke at the beginning, I'm not as \"smart\" as I would like... I've tried, and failed, to do far too much to believe highly of myself...) But I do my research for my responses - when I don't already know the information off-hand (and even then I double-check with the game and/or 50 web pages open). \nYour math is correct, regardless of whether I can generally process it at the moment or not, but, why do \"you\" care? Why do \"you\" believe that the wording is correct? \n \nThat's what has me curous. \n \nSorry, and thank you. -- And, truly, I mean no offense. I just can't think of a better way of wording 'some things'... \n \nEDIT: Final note: I updated my preferences so that I will be emailed when I get quoted so that it won't take as long for me to notice... Also, in case it influsences anything, I nearly reported, then nearly deleted this post while trying to simply \"edit\" it... so, yeah, I'm not exactly thinking clearly.",

It isn't a cultural thing but at the same time it certainly will not appeal to all tastes, but all players are welcome! \n \n\nAquilo cares. Aquilo will be unpleasant if you don't improve Minimum Operational Time , even if Maximum Operational Time is infinitely high. The cold environment of Aquilo forces your robots to consume more energy just to stay warm. (Mathematically, C_max = C_min + I + stuff.) C_min is just \"Moving consumption\" and ignores any other energy requirements. I is Idle consumption, which is negligible on most planets but is magnified on Aquilo. T_min = E_/C_max, so T_min will drop on Aquilo unless you improve the quality of the logistic bots. \n \n\nWell, to be fair, I did say the minimum in red was 18 seconds and maximum in green was 20 seconds. Maximum operating time simply means a point at which any bot would immediately recharge, but they \">DO NOT DIE<.\" To be direct, here's an example: Suppose there are 3 logistic robots flying around for 18, 19, and 20 seconds at varying velocities. The 20 second bot must recharge now and stops doing its tasks. The 19 second bot also quits, but only because it has met its minimum operational time threshold of 18 seconds and now doesn't give a crap anymore what anyone thinks about it and just wants to D A N C E instead of doing its job you asked it to do. So, the 19-second robot, right in front of you, \">DOES NOT DIE<\", but abruptly stops its task and instead dances, smiles, frowns, and does just about everything you never once asked the 19-second robot to do. You are saddened with this defiant behavior, but there are other bots still working, so you focus now on the 18-second robot instead. The 18-second robot *wants* to quit. I mean, let's be honest: the 19-second robot just shot a giant middle finger your way, so that tickles the 18-second robot's interests. But, the 18-second robot understands that its life is dictated by the Minimal Operational Time, which is 18 seconds and in the red formula I mentioned. With tears in its eyes, the 18-second robot keeps working, counting down the nanoseconds until the 19 second mark arrives. I mean, it could work longer if it wan-- \"I'M SORRY, DID YOU FORGET ABOUT ME?!\" screams the 20-second robot, now long forgotten, at the narrator. You see, the 20-second robot really WANTED to work harder, do more, but he just ... well it's just .. he just couldn't, OK?! He was at the Maximal Operational Time. \n \nLike I said before, if you improve the logistic robots quality, you can make that sucker D A N C E its little butt right back to work for up to 6 times longer. \n \n\nThe Minimum Operational Time is NOT the \" Maximum time between charge.\" Normal bots can fly up to 20 seconds, but the time you mentioned is 18 seconds. 20 seconds is more than 18 seconds, so 20 seconds is the maximum . The Minimum Operational Time accounts for Aquilo's harsh environment, and bots are required to fly longer at a minimum on other planets than Aquilo. If I understand your comments correctly, what I think you want is a \"Maximum Distance Before Recharge\" in the info box. On Aquilo, max distance before requiring recharge decreases. I agree that semantics can be confusing!",

If the player has done what I once did: in 1.1, creating grids of roboports, ignoring water tiles because they were meaningless -- until I realized that bots will literally stop almost three-fourths of the way across only to turn around and seek a recharge from where they came (rather than on the other side...), then they will discover this to be true. \n \nSo far as I know there are only two instances where this isn't true: 1. Bot dies from damage. 2. Bot's task gets removed and it immediately returns to the port. \n \n \nAs pointed out by both of us, \"Maximum\" never referenced their lifetime as that is \"until destroyed\". No, \"maximum\" references the maximum time before they stop their current task and start a new one: \"seek recharge at all costs.\" \n \n \nAnd, your point about Aquallo only drives my point forward. This is the maximum time before they stop doing what 'the player' wants them to and start \"seeking a recharge\" - is it not? If not, tell me, what do they do (that the player wants) beyond this 'minimum'? \n \nOk... Ok... To be fair to your next point, if there is a maximum - truly a maximum that is not the minimum listed - before they disregard all else and seek a recharge (or to dock, for that matter) what is it and where is it listed? How do you calculate it? If it isn't time between recharges then what metric are you using for \"maximum\" operational time... as stated above it cannot be 'death' since this only happens when they are destroyed. Nor can it be time between recharges as that is what you use as the \"minimum\"... So... what is it? (and, I will admit, I may not be reading your text as well as I should. I only recently 'needed' to start wearing glasses and I often forget that they actually help me read text... so...) \n \nTruly... Truly, the minimum operational time, all else be damned, is the additive time between the start and end of the \"leaves roboport\" animation and the start and end of the \"enters roboport\" animation. This is the absolute minimum operational time, because \"leaves\" is \"Begin Operation\" and the end of \"returns\" is the \"End of Operation\". \n \n \nFinally, with regards to your reply, how does the \"Minimum operational time\" ignore Aquallo completely... IF the following comment says otherwise?:\n \nSo, yes, here I'm confused. \n \n \nFinally, finally: You didn't answer my last question in my previous post: \"One final question I feel that I need to start asking everyone who responds to me: \"Who are you in relation to the game? General user? Code digger/hacker/moder? Wube associate? Or part of the game development team?\" \nThe reason I ask is so that I understand your background with regards to your answer.\" \n \nEDIT: Ok, one last finally. I think after the two of us have one last comment with regards to this we should probably drop this here. We could, potentially, continue in direct/private messages, but I don't see any reason to harass everyone else with this, unless someone else disagrees.",

The bot *can* recharge at 18 seconds, but it *must* recharge at 20. The two values are completely different. \n \n\nI'm sorry, I'm now the confused one: I already calculated the maximum time in green for you. I keep saying the maximum time is 20 seconds. The minimum time is 18 seconds. I gave you the formula and calculated these two times for you, but it was in my original reply post, not the previous one. Did you see it there? \n \n\nHmm, I'm not 100% sure if that's correct, but, let's go with it, though, and see what happens! You want the minimal operational time to be the time from departure to arrival of another roboport, yes? OK, that time depends on speed, because if bots go faster, that time improves, yes? OK. Now, improving the quality improves minimal operational time, yet somehow the speed of the bot NEVER changes regardless of quality. Wait a second, didn't you just say time should depend on when a bot leaves and enters another roboport, which means that if robot quality improves, they must move faster? That seems like a contradiction. This \"time\" you defined increased with quality, yet somehow the way you measure it, depending on entry/exit times, relies instead on speed of the robot, which never changes. You don't even need a label to tell you minimal operational time to comprehend that quality on the robot depends on energy capacity, energy expenditure, and energy consumption. It doesn't matter what the label even says: if you see it as units of time, and look at the other blue diamonds that denote quality-dependent values, you already know that whatever this \"time\" value is, it cannot POSSIBLY depend on speed, because speed NEVER changes despite quality improvements in the robot itself. Thus, your idea of time depending on when a robot leaves vs. enters, which in turn depends on speed, cannot possibly be true, even if the \"time\" label were written in French. Although time is frequently presented as distance over speed, there are many other ways to define time, such as the case here.",

[2.0.14] Trains on map only selectable when zoomed out unless near a radar

Won't fix.

When zooming into the map enough that actively revealed chunks become rendered, all trains outside of radar range can no longer be selected. Mousing over the train no longer highlights it, and clicking it no longer brings up the GUI. I would think that zooming in wouldn't stop trains from being interactable when they otherwise would be.
If the train is in an actively revealed chunk, clicking it brings up the GUI at all zoom levels.
There don't seem to be any special conditions for trains to behave this way; they just always do.

Hello
Issue:
Space platform length building limit.
Suggestion:
Please make it possible to increase the length of the space platform north direction as it currently has a short limit compared to building south from the space platform hub.

In Japanese, name of ores end with "石(stone)" and coal is "石炭" (stony charcoal/carbon) so searching for Stone resource patch with "石" shows many highlights, making the highlighting meaningless.
It is helpful if we have exact match (like togglable by ✓)

Hi all o/
just a quick idea : having a hotkey to hide/show the whole GUI . It would allow to simply walk through your base, enjoying its beauty/complexity/ingeniosity/whatever you want without the GUI. Many games have this option, and it also allows some content creators to produce "cinematic" content (but in Factorio, kinda hard tbh). Examples : overwatch, the witcher 3. (Ok, these are graphically big games, but still, Factorio has its own beauty) I haven't found a control for that in the settings.

Going well, I'm porting 0.6.7 to Factorio 0.15.x. Also making some changes to make the mod less UPS heavy in large scale building.

[Donion] [2.0.41] Lag spikes when music track is changed
|
Assigned

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=127454

Atraps003

Sometimes when the game changes music to a space age specific track the game will lag briefly. I collected frame time data for about 1 minute on each surface while changing the music every couple of seconds. Every surface except nauvis has high frame time spikes.
I forced the game to change music using the "Play the next music track" hotkey in controls but the lag spikes happen even when the game changes the music normally. The lag spikes also occur on a different computer with different hardware and os.

Base recipe missing after mod removal
|
Modding help
|
https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=47912
|
PantherX
|
Is it normal for recipes for base items to be missing when a mod (that removes these recipes) is removed from a save? Does the tech tree and recipes get refreshed when active mods change?
To give a specific example. I've got a mod that removes the item and recipe for Hazard concrete and changes the Concrete technology to also not unlock the Hazard variant. When the mod is removed from a save, although the hazard concrete item and recipe returns, the recipe is not enabled. reset_recipes and reset_technologies doesn't fix it either, and the only workaround I've found to re-enable the Hazard concrete recipe is to manually un-research the Concrete technology and research it again.
Is there a better way for me to handle this situation in the mod?

I've written a plugin for Intellij, that downloads and parses the Factorio Lua API and adds autocompletion for it.
The factorio Version can be selected in the Settings under `Settings > Languages & Frameworks > Factorio Autocompletion`.
As plugin-dependency, emmyLua is required for the basic LUA integration.
Autocompletion will be added to every LUA file, when activated.
Also a different autocompletion is used for prototype definition.
The info.json has automatically the correct json-schema loaded, so it has autocompletion and error checks.
Source-Code: https://github.com/knoxfighter/intellij ... completion
Plugin-Page: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13 ... pi-support
Implemented Features:
info.json has a schema
Prototype definitions (data:extend) autocompletion
Autocompletion for require command (load default LUA libraries, e.g. `mod-gui`)
Autocomplete Prototypes for tables (e.g. `LuaForce.recipe[String]LuaRecipe`)
Autocomplete Prototypes in data.raw table.
Planned features:
Creation of Projects/Files
Autocompletion for LocalizedStrings (general translation tools)

[raiguard][2.0.21] Mod updates not downloading upon Steam sign in

Won't fix.

I have been playing Factorio installed via Steam for some time and had installed mods via the game's mod menu. As everyone on Steam knows, we can now link our account to Steam thanks to a recent-ish update... well I hadn't yet. I went to the mod menu in game and went to update the installed mods, game prompted me to link my Steam account when I clicked the update selected mods button; I have no problem with that.
After I linked, however, mods did not update, like one would expect. I had to back out to the main menu, go back to the mods menu, have it re-check for updates to see the same mods I'd already told it to update still had updates available, switch to the updates tab, and finally click the update selected mods (again). This is a one-time thing, as I shouldn't need to link to my Steam again, but it is still a QoL annoyance.
TL;DR version, in format:
1. install mods in old version in Steam, update game without linking to Steam, try to update mods and link to Steam as forced
2. installed mods do not update despite having clicked the update mods button, can't just reclick update mods button as it was already clicked
3. expected for mods to update, even if after the linking
4. situation only happens once per account normally, twice max with the Steam unlinking (in theory, I'm not unlinking to check)

Nearly all the ores are handled the same. Gems gives multiple ores, Lithia is a fluid and uses a unique building, but can also use the oil drills.
And, although it's not all that heavily dependant on oil, depending on what you're doing, it does add A LOT of new fluids. (Though half of them are actually gasses. And all the gasses can be made from Water, or "Air" aka nothing) It does also make a lot of changes depending on what mods are installed, for example, Electronics mod rewrites electronics, and as a result you'll need some of my new ores to be able to make them... and Hydrogen chloride. Hydrogen Chloride can currently be made quite easily, all you need is water, but is annoying due to the Sodium Hydroxide byproduct. The Salt water electrolysis is kind of like my version of oil processing.

Quality Module I research cost is "off the charts"

Balancing

Im no game dev, therefore i wont suggest any numbers here, dont look for them!
But I think you should look into this:
While all other Tier1 modules cost 50 research, the all singing all dancing shiny new quality 1 module cost 500.
While this reflects it´s usefulness (shall be seen, see below) it´s way off balance imho.
Normally i wouldn´t even look at it and just pay a little more, research cost never been an obstacle since forever, you just dont think about it with a base that could be in any YT video tutorial
Normally i wouldn´t worry, but i recently started a x100 science cost map , which makes the 10x factor very much noticable.
Now, i dont plan on using the module for the forseeable future, rocket silo is quite some way to go and the only thing I´d want early quality on would be asteroid grabbers and maybe steel power poles
But even that can wait until i start moving space platforms.
Building a resarch platform will be a big enough undertaking, i dont mind normal quality grabbers.
Therefore, researching quality mod1 could wait until i remodeled my starter base to a production level where this doesn´t cost me hours.
However, here is where it starts looking like a balancing oversight:
Qmod2 costs just as much.
The others all increase, where this doesn´t.
Qmod3 increases again.
Before you have to look at it in the wiki:
Module: Speed - Prod. - Effi - Quality
Tier 1: 50-50-50-500
Tier 2: 200-200-200-500
Tier 3: 2000-300-300-2000 yes, speed leaps too and the jump from 200 to 300 with the other ones is weird scaling!
I highly doubt these are numbers anyone ever thought about with science cost increase in mind.
Even for normal runs, normally noone but speedrunners cares.
Science is there to brute force it via the main goal early game: the factory must grow!
You typically only notice things like Rocket silo in vanilla, atomic bomb and other very late game researches. The rest is just BING BING BING NEXT!
But in a high cost scenario, when researching a small module costs half a rocket silo, which in Space Age x100 is a bigger hurdle than everything before, you definatly notice!

this is using the link on the "big green button" https://www.factorio.com/get-download/1.1.104/alpha/osx
I've consistently gotten a 403 that looks something like this:

I've logged out and logged back in... same thing.
(Normally wouldn't be updating my server, but the Steam client auto-updates, so here I am!)

Hello, so I decided to play 2.0 without the DLC and launch a rocket, however the game didn't let me launch the rocket without sending an item to space (either satellite or fish).
I'm not sure if this is new behavior or just a bug, either way, the main issue came after launching the rocket:
10-31-2024, 21-27-27.png (4.15 MiB) Viewed 1375 times
After launching the rocket, a cargo landing pod appeared in the spawnpoint location and can't be removed, it appears to be stuck in air and be a bug, the issue persists even after reloading the save and restarting the game.

[Lou][2.0.8] Inconsistent Behavior w/ Super Force Build
|
Assigned

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=116813

While in the editor, attempting to super force build a blueprint which involves an invalid offshore pump displays no message when placed on landfill, but shows the message "An auto-included Landfill is inconsistent with buildability rules of some Offshore pump." when placed on water. Additionally, in regular gameplay, the blueprint will be successfully placed, but some items may not be built depending on the order bots build the buildings.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a new game & switch to editor with /editor
2. Place a water pump, then landfill the water around it so it turns into a Water Well Pump
3. Place buildings around the pump (Such as a ring of pipes). Copy these buildings.
4. Paste this blueprint over an area of landfill
The expected behavior is that I should be notified that this blueprint cannot be placed, and should have the same behavior as if i attempted to place it on water.
See attached image, where I show the original blueprint, and the effects of super force building it onto both landfill and water.

Hello my favorite dev team.

Edits to events around entity death / damage

TL;DR
Edits to :
Code: Select all on_entity_damaged, on_entity_died, on_player_died, on_pre_player_died. that specify what weapon was used (if applicable) and what ammo was used (if applicable)
What ?
For these events, it would be good to be able to access the weapon and ammo that was used to damage / kill the entity / player, like how Code: Select all on_entity_damaged.cause will return the entity that attacked.
This is the current event structure for this specific event, what I am suggesting is:
Example return of a spidertron nukes a car:
Code: Select all
event = {
entity = car,
damage_type = "explosion",
all of the yada yada damage values
cause = spidertron,
force = enemy,
weapon = Spidertron-rocket-launcher-1,
ammo = atomic-bomb
}
Why ?
This would allow mod creators like myself to tailor specific effects to happen depending on what an entity is attacked with.
This would also mean PvP mod creators could create death messages like:
<Player> killed <Player> with <Weapon> loaded with <Ammo>

[2.0.39] Inconsistent behavior for switch to surface shortcut

Minor issues

In editor mode, the switch to surface short cut has inconsistent behavior. Sometimes it will switch to a surface when pressing ctrl + 1, sometimes it will just get the quickbar item as if I had only pressed 1
I can consistently get the surface behavior on key up events:
1. press down ctrl
2. press down 1
3. press down 2
4. release 1
1. press down ctrl
2. press down 1
3. press down 2
4. release 2
step 4 consistently switches surfaces, all other key events go to quickbar instead
P.S. would love to have this as a shortcut in normal play too.

Resource Spawner Overhaul
|
https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=12709

orzelek

This mod overrides in-game Perlin noise based resource/units spawning system by region divided spawning system.
It changes resource spawning to be region based - by default regions are big which promotes using of trains. Resources will be more sparse so more logistics will be required to supply your base. As a bonus resources further away from start location will be more rich.
RSO also controls spawning of biter bases to make it easier for a player to move further into the wilds, but don't expect resources to be biter-free.
Mods that don't modify resources should work without problems. Support is present for most of large mods (DyTech, Bob's mods, Yuoki industries, Uranium power) and some of smaller ones. NARmod support is planned.
If you receive information about not supported ores (will be printed after game start) please post them in feedback thread along with information which mods are used. I'll try to add support for those mods then.
Telling RSO to ignore surface - exclude it from ore spawning
If your mod is creating surface that should not have any ore spawned then there are two ways to make RSO ignore it.
First one is to call following method:
Code: Select all /c remote.call("RSO", "ignoreSurface","surface name")
Which will stop RSO from spawning ores on given surface.
Second method is to use map settings that have resource sizes set to 0 - this disables spawning of given resource and can be used to selectively remove resources from surface.
Usage instructions It is recommended to start a new game, but regenerating resources in an old save is totally possible.
Map generation settings are read by the mod and used (from version for 0.12).
If you want to use old save or just want to regenerate the resources on map:
Use the following command to regenerate resources:
Code: Select all /rso-regenerate-surface
Regenerate resources only on current surface, you can add all as parameter to regen also starting area (can be useful to get tungsten patch on Vulcanus that was added in 7.0.3).
Code: Select all /rso-regenerate
Regenerates resources on all surfaces (ignores starting areas).
You can add noenemies to the command to only regenerate resources and leave enemy bases as is.
To change a seed to preffered value (use any number up to around 2000000000, due to factorio rng small values < 200 might net similar or identical results):
Code: Select all /rso-override-seed 23423
There is also a command to only clear current resources/enemies:
Code: Select all /rso-clear
It also accepts noenemies as parameter to clear only resources.
If you want to change region size then recommended procedure is:
1. Call the clear command
2. Change the region size to new value in settings
3. Call the regenerate command
Be aware that this can take few minutes and biter bases might also respawn (depends on noenemies parameter). Safest place to execute this command is the starting area.
Any resources in the starting region are not affected by this command.
Starting locations handling instructions
From version 5.0.8 RSO supports starting location reading from map settings. It will automatically create starting location on positions from map settings when surface is created.
To prevent that following call can be made before creating a surface:
Code: Select all /c remote.call("RSO", "disableStartingArea")
This will stop RSO from creating new starting areas.
Multiple starting areas handling is available from version 2.2.0.
Recommended way to use it is following:
1. Prepare all players/forces (RSO doesn't handle player setup, but you can use a mod like SpaceBook to manage this)
2. Chart big map area and select your starting locations using following command (size can be change as desired):
Code: Select all /c local size = 1000; game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {left_top = {x = -size, y = -size}, right_bottom = {x = size, y = size}})
3. Call newly added clear command to clean up all biters/resources
Code: Select all /c remote.call("RSO", "clear")
4. Use new command to add start locations in desired places. Command looks as follows:
Code: Select all /c remote.call("RSO", "addStartLocation", {x=-555, y=48})
Where x and y are coordinates in tiles of new start location (visible in top left usually in F5 debug menu).
Player that runs this command from console will get feedback about location creation (can fail if it's to close to different start location).
You can also specify the player as next parameter after position - output will be sent to that player then.
One drawback thats very difficult to fix currently is that new starting area location should be charted already. With default config and normal starting area size area is 448x448 centered on given position. If this area is not charted resources will be spawned but placement checks will not work correctly so they might end up on water.
5. Use standard regenerate command to generate resources/biters on rest of the map.
You can skip the clear and regenerate steps without problems with one drawback - each new starting area changes generator a bit so regeneration called after adding new start area might yield completely different results then initial generation. All starting areas are safe during clear and regenerate command and resources in them won't be changed.

Starting richness multiplier affects only starting area, global one affects all the resources outside starting area. \nResource richness increase from distance to center is controlled separately by richness_distance_factor. \n \nAdditionally there is a feature that can generate another resource next to main resource in region - it is controlled by resource specific configuration and three multi_resource_ factors described in config file. \n \nIf any of endless resource mods or options of other mods is activated then RSO will try to detect changed resources and apply special size modifier for them as defined by endless_resource_mode_sizeModifier setting. \n Enemy options Main option controlling biters distribution are absolute_enemy_chance and enemy_base_size_multiplier.

I'm in the process of designing a mod where some elements are heavily knowledge-dependant. I want to make a GUI where the already discovered elements are shown, and would like for those elements to be transferrable between saves so you don't constantly load save A, then save B.
I'm aware I can easily do this using map settings and strings to transfer the data, but this requires user interaction, and is not something I imagine people would enjoy being forced to do or be aware of. I'm also not too sure of the limitations strings have (do they have a character limit?).
My request is a table like the current global table, with the simple difference that it is saved on the factorio install, not the world itself. It would be the responsibility of modders to write code that doesn't break with different versions, but that's not too different from how global works, either.

Setting dependent character animations

So I'm hoping to include a setting in my Power Armor MK3 mod which changes the PAMK4 armor into a mech armor, complete with all the bells an whistles, including the animations (it looks quite silly without them). I've managed to get everything to work except for the appearance/animations.
I'm currently using the following to use Vanilla sprites for my armors. This is done in the Prototype stage.
Code: Select all for _, animation in ipairs(data.raw["character"]["character"]["animations"]) do
if animation.armors then
for _, armor in ipairs(animation.armors) do
if armor == "power-armor-mk2" then
animation.armors[#animation.armors + 1] = "pamk3-pamk3"
animation.armors[#animation.armors + 1] = "pamk3-pamk4"
break
end
if armor == "light-armor" then
animation.armors[#animation.armors + 1] = "pamk3-lvest"
break
end
if armor == "heavy-armor" then
animation.armors[#animation.armors + 1] = "pamk3-hvest"
break
end
end
end
end
What I want to do is check if both Space Age is enabled and the setting is enabled, then switch over to the Mech Armor sprites, below is my current attempt to do so. I've tried this in both data and Data-updates stage.
Code: Select all if settings.startup["pam3-ma2"].value and mods["space-age"] then
local simulations = require("__space-age__.prototypes.factoriopedia-simulations")
data.raw["armor"]["pamk3-pamk4"].factoriopedia_simulation = simulations.factoriopedia_mech_armor
data.raw["armor"]["pamk3-pamk4"].provides_flight = true
data.raw["armor"]["pamk3-pamk4"].takeoff_sound = {filename = "__space-age__/sound/entity/mech-armor/mech-armor-takeoff.ogg", volume = 0.2, aggregation = {max_count = 2, remove = true}}
data.raw["armor"]["pamk3-pamk4"].landing_sound = {filename = "__space-age__/sound/entity/mech-armor/mech-armor-land.ogg", volume = 0.3, aggregation = {max_count = 2, remove = true, count_already_playing = true}}
data.raw["armor"]["pamk3-pamk4"].flight_sound = {sound={filename = "__space-age__/sound/entity/mech-armor/mech-armor-flight.ogg", volume = 0.2}}
for _, animation in ipairs(data.raw["character"]["character"]["animations"]) do
if animation.armors then
for _, armor in ipairs(animation.armors) do
if armor == "mech-armor" then
animation.armors[#animation.armors + 1] = "pamk3-pamk4"
break
end
end
end
end
end
It obviously doesn't work, the animations at least, and with my mediocre coding talents I'm stuck. If anyone could provide some help, or even a solution, I'd be grateful.
Thanks in advance to any help given.

I hate to be the masochist here, but this all looks so great I can't see myself ever using anything except generic trains.
Obviously I've not played this, but I'm wondering if this stuff is so good it needs to be enabled by research beyond the normal "Automated rail transportation" and "Rail Signals"?

"content": "I'm making the solution for that with my Combinassembly language. Of course, my suggestion is just a very powerful but simple tool, none of the complexities are handled. It's way harder than anything done with regular static train schedules so far. But it removes the problem of being forced to path trains with circuits when you actually just want to set destination. But that is really far from \"dumbing down\" the game, we are talking about requiring combinator systems way more advanced than anything else in the game requires to utilize this feature completely. It's a bit like setting recipes on assemblers by circuit signals, but for trains. Making it \"easy\" is not really part of the discussion here. \n \nThe ability to \"read\" signals doesn't tell us how they can then then be used. If I was the one to design the system I could be confident it would be done right, but I'm not. \n \nI'm not yet convinced I can \"totally make a train go to station \"[A]\" by sending the [A] signal to its train stop.\" with the information provided. That sounds like you extrapolated based on wishful thinking. And it's still a bad system if it works like this because: \n \nRunning out is just 1 downside. The other is that it just isn't a good dynamic system, you can't really do generic computations to get from one signal type to another. I don't want to get introduced to a system that promises to let me name all stops the same, and then being forced to giving individual names (with manually typing in names in stops and interrupts) for configuring stops to have [A] 1 or [A] 2 as names because I ran out of signals. I don't want to have to configure a constant combinator to hold all possible signal values. I don't want to set constant combinators to \"unique\" signal types at each stop to utilize the \"generic signal\" feature that should have removed this manual configuration from each stop. It's clunky and bad. \n \nWhat I want is more like the \"generic signal\" being converted to a numeric value instead of a signal type. Then I can actually ID all stations with unique identifying codes. I can generate these numbers programmatically from coordinates or incremented indexes. \n Building on my suggestion description \n \nAdding to this, stations would also need a \"generic signal\" in their name so part of their name can be set by combinators. Well, it's enough if it's a fixed signal type with a dynamic value that changes the part of the \"name\" (doesn't have to actually change the name, just virtually to trains trying to decide stops) to the input value. \n \nSo the system would be something like \n \n stops with a name like \"[train-stop] Unloading [A]\" (actually \"[item=train-stop] Unloading [virtual-signal=signal-A]\" but I'm shortening it like in my language so it's more readable since forum doesn't transform rich text tags). \n The GUI for the train stops gets a checkbox \"dynamic signal name\", which means that the name is effectively \"[train-stop:0] Unloading [A:7]\" if the stop is receiving [A] 7 on red wire ([train-stop] and [A] have no inherent meaning, it's just a part of the name with rich text tags). The \":number\" is just a way to convey that the name is \"changed\". If the box isn't checked the name behaves like \"[train-stop:0] Unloading [A:0]\" regardless of what the [train-stop] and [A] signals are. \n Trains with \"[train-stop] Unloading [A]\" in their schedule \"changed\" to \"[train-stop:0] Unloading [A:7]\" if there's a [A] 7 on the green wire to the train stop. It gets sent to any train stop with matching name and matching signals,on red wire for the target stop, to the signals on green wire from \nTrains with \"[train-stop] Unloading [A]\" in their schedule or interrupts. Since targeting and ID-setting uses different wires a stop can have dynamic ID and tell trains to go to any other target stop at the same time. \n Since non-existent signals == 0, the stops and trains don't need a configuration for every signal in schedule/stop name, and if you don't wire in any values then the stops/schedules will default to 0 and work like regular \"static\" names. \n \n\nHaving a specific [stop-id] signal (sent to stops to configure them) and [targeting-id] signal (sent to stops with trains to direct trains to stops with same value [stop-id] as the [target-id] signal) would be enough though and maybe even simpler. And then the signals wouldn't be needed in the stop/schedule names.",

If disabling does the same as setting the limit to 0, those posts disappear, and those players are happy. \n \nReason two, if I can disable a train stop instead of setting the limit to 0, that'd make some of my circuitry easier. \n \nIf your only reason to keep it is about spacebar-heating , that's not a strong argument. \n \nAn actual use case, thank you! But it might be solvable with interrupts. Before I quote FFF 398, let me tag someone else:\n \n \nSo your schedule would be \"Wall\" -> \"Wall\", with an interrupt for (\"Destination full\" or \"items low\") that leads back to base. Bonus: if the wall stops need different items, then the new schedule can top up more than three wall sections, as long as supplies last. \n \nYay, use cases! But if the train station gets reenabled, then all the trains are far away. To prevent starvation, you need enough buffers to last through one train trip anyway, correct? \n \nIn that case, the usual way to handle this is to dynamically set the train queue limit according to missing items, thus requesting exactly the amount of trains that you need. No more wasted trips. \n \nWhen you're doing maintenance and you don't want to get run over, removing a piece of rail before the station is the only safe option. Trains are free to pass through disabled stations, especially when they spot an engineer on the tracks.",

Quality on Gleba.
|
Ideas and Suggestions

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=126630

TL;DR
A couple of suggestions to make quality more feasible on Gleba. Because right now it kind of sucks.
What?
Currently, it's hard, if not impossible, to do quality science on Gleba. Because whilst you can get quality jelly from grinding up stack inserters, mash does not have a single recipe that outputs mash as part of the ingredients in recycling. This means the only way for you to get quality mash, is by simply constantly grinding mash and HOPING you get quality mash. Which, with the insanely short spoil time of 3 minutes at base and 7.30 at legendary, needs to be processed ASAP to get legendary anything.
So, I'd like to see wube implement/change a recipe so that it allows us to recycle it for quality mash. Because the only alternative right now is making normal bioflux, turning it into a capture bot rocket, then quality grinding that. Which is, frankly, ludicrously expensive compared to how we can obtain holmium/tungsten as quality.
Personally, I'd think one of the following could work:
1. Let us recycle carbon fibre into yumako mash and carbon.
2. Give quality seeds a chance to hold higher quality fruit, up to the level of the seed. Agri tower quality determines the actual percentage chance.
3. Instead of a chance-based system, let us harvest legendary seeds for legendary fruit.
Why?
By making quality easier to obtain on Gleba the planet as a whole and especially its' recipes become a lot more valuable. Because, if you can just 'grow' legendary fruit, you can turn it into legendary ore, of which you can then make legendary products, allowing it to somewhat compete with Fulgora/Vulcanus in terms of how easy those 2 are to make quality stuff on.

Regardless you'd still probably have farms that accept only normal quality seed just to keep a supply going, whilst having a dedicated set of farms that are focused purely on grinding quality.

Hello!
Maybe someone can tell me, because I haven't found any information.
Is it possible to specify a different path to the locale file?
For example, there is a mod, it has 3 locale files with different languages, let's say EN, DE, IT, I have another file for the IT locale, and is it possible to specify that the translation should initially be taken from my folder with the file for IT?

Modded Achievement Enabler

This tool will enable achievements (in-game, and on Steam) for modded saves. This will not work for saves where cheats, console commands, or the map editor have been used . This also will not enable achievements for which you've failed the prerequisites (i.e. Getting on Track).
This will use your vanilla achievement progress, so you may see stats change when you first enable it, as progress made on modded saves without this tool are separate (achievements-modded.dat).
To install, place version.dll in the same folder as your Factorio.exe. By default this would be Factorio\bin\x64\ .
Steam users need an additional step:
In Steam, add Code: Select all cmd /c start "" %command% as the launch options under the game properties.
Requirements:
Windows, Factorio. Another author has made a GNU/Linux version here .
Troubleshooting:
If things aren't working as expected, run Factorio.exe from a command line with the following syntax: factorio.exe > %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\out.txt . The log file you get should detail if the patches were applied. If they weren't, please open an issue on Github or post here and I'll do my best to get things updated.
Acknowledgements:

With Factorio currently being in two separate versions due to platform incompatibility, and with the switch having it's innate limitations, would it be a good idea to create a section for that platform and it's players?

Entity renderer doesn't find the robots, since they are outside of screen, so it doesn't render them. We improved this by extending how far outside of screen's area entity renderer searches for entities to 6 tiles on all sides (it used to be 6 on left side, due to shadows, 4 on bottom side due to tall entities like electric poles and trees, and 3 on top and right), which slightly increases cost of rendering, but hopefully that will be fine. \n \nBut if the drones are fast enough ... faster than 6 tiles per 20 ticks, the issue will appear again. We have a second radius around the screen box that is searched for entities that draw far outside of their bounding box (like lamps or agricultural tower), but so far it was intended for entities that are not that frequent on map and I am concerned about enabling this for bots, as there could be thousands or even tens of thousands of them on screen.

YAFC - Factorio calculator/analyser for modded games
|
Cheatsheets / Calculators / Viewers

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=85215

After playing a bunch of Pyanodon and struggling with its deeply recursive recipes when Helmod were not enough, I have decided to make my own calculator / analyser tool. As usual it took a lot longer than expected (almost 2 months) but it was a lot of fun!
More gifs here (traffic warning!)
YAFC is written with two primary goals: To work with modded games, and to help the user to make educated choices while exploring unknown mod packs.
So YAFC is not just a calculator, it contains multiple complex analysis tools and really tries to understand what is going on in the modpack. It even estimates the amount of resources generated by the map generator, and it also simulates hypothetical late-game base to understand how much of everything do you need, what is the best recipe to make what, what are locked behind different science packs, how much of everything do you need, etc.
For example YAFC also contains "Never Enough Items Explorer" tool that (similar to FNEI) shows you how to produce and consume everything, but with additional information like recipe efficiency, and how "important" the recipe is (For vanilla game example, it knows that about 80% of petroleum gas is going to plastic, and about 80% of plastic is going to advanced circuits)
As a calculator, the two main features are great handling of recursive recipes and the ability to organise recipes in nested sheets so that (for example) green circuits can have its own copper cable production, not mixing with copper cables for other uses.
There is also a cool small "auto-module" feature that assigns productivity modules to recipes that benefit the most from them with a single slider "How many modules do you want?"
It is the first beta release. I have found and fixed a lot of incompativilities with Factorio mods, but probably not all of them, so it is expected that YAFC may not work with some (especially less popular) mods. But hopefully I could fix more incompatibilities in the following weeks. Other bugs are also possible!
YAFC is a desktop app for Windows, and there are also Linux and OSX experimental builds!
You can read more, look at more gifs, and download it on Github

Liquid voiding on automatic recipe change
|
Balancing

When a recipe with a liquid component is changed, for instance when the EM plant changes from normal quality to rare quality processing units as below, while the item components are stored in a temporary slot to be removed, the liquid component gets voided. I assume this is an intended feature and not a bug, hence I'm writing on this forum. For big builds including automatic recipe selection this causes a disproportionately massive amount of fluid to be consumed due to the massive buffer amount kept in each machine.
Factorio - 2025-01-17 10-03-28.mp4
(6.57 MiB) Downloaded 33 times
In the case above, the EM plant consumes 1.87 sulfuric acid/s, this means that if the recipe is changed every 30 seconds, the lost 400 units would equate to a sulfuric acid usage of 13 /s, which is more than a seven fold increase in usage

It's given back just before the fluid input into the machine vanishes, in case you're switching to a recipe without liquids. \nAt least it's given back as long as the pipe isn't 100% full and has space for the recycled fluid. If you use the map editor in single step mode and inspect pipe content right after a recipe change, you will see there's 400 more fluid in the pipes if the visible fluid ingredient was 400. \n \nIt might be given back even if the pipe segment is full, since there is one or even more hidden invisible fluid buffers within production machines where fluids could be stored temporarily. I didn't investigate this completely, but you can deduct the presence of these buffers from fluid generating recipes (for example refinery) and the output pipe segment gets full. The refinery doesn't immediately stall when its output is full - it stalls when it completed a recipe and is about to output the result of the recipe, and it cannot, since the output is full. The output of that recipe is visible nowhere, but it's present, since the output stays full even if fluid is extracted further down the pipe until that hidden recipe output fully went into the visible output buffer.",

One pump does 1200/s, this is 1200/60 = 20 per tick. So if you need to flush 400 fluid, you need to activate the recycling pump 400 / 20 = 20 ticks before you initiate the recipe change.",

Script for downloading translations from Crowdin

The idea for this came up during the long drought of updates after 1.0 which left a lot of strings (especially the spidertron-related ones) untranslated for months even though the strings were already translated on Crowdin. The script uses the Crowdin API to pull all the strings for a particular language and then puts them into the correct .cfg files.
https://github.com/gyorokpeter/factorio ... ownload.py
Some things are hardcoded (e.g. the language to download and the game directory) but should be simple to change.

Factorio Forums • Bots should be immune to lightning
|
As far as I can tell, there's nothing I can do to protect my bots from getting struck by lighting. I can't tell them to path through lightning-proof areas, there's no way to control where to path, and they will often path outside those areas. I can't just expand the protected area to wherever they do fly, because they choose to fly over the ocean, and I won't get foundations for a very long time. I can't just confine them to a single island, because until I get purple science, there's no other way to transfer items between islands, and even then there's only one cargo bay per surface.

[2.0.14] Highlighting in spaceship hubs/landing pads isn't updated when its content changes

Steps to reproduce:
1. Remove some items from a hub/pad, to cause requests to change its content in step 3
2. Hover over a request to highlight it in the hub/pad's inventory
3. Wait for some of its items to change
4. The position of the highlights aren't changed.
I suspect this has something to do with their inventory being sorted when the only thing that has its contents sorted was the player in 1.1.

After restarting server the first person gets in just fine, all other logins desync. If player 1 exits and rejoins, he is desynced.

Oreverhaul - Much more control over oregen and related progression

Mod Info:
Oreverhaul allows you to control the way ores generate, including their richness, size, rarity, spawn control (eg minimum distance), and more. At default settings, higher and higher tier ores are only found further and further from the center of the map, which forces a great deal of exploration, the use of trains, and some amount of player-biter conflict. Additionally, under the defaults, ores start with nearly nothing at the center, but rapidly improve away from the spawn.
All the behaviors are configurable, with a high degree of fidelity; you can easily tailor the settings to whatever style of gameplay you please.
Note that Oreverhaul is entirely controlled by a "config.lua" in the mod zip (either extract the mod or edit it with something like WinRAR), as its options are far too numerous and complicated for the ingame options menu. The default copy of the file can be seen here .
Has native (ie implemented by default) integration with Bob's Mods, and can easily be made to handle those from other mods as well; see the documentation in the config. Any ores not specified by the config are not generated whatsoever, so ensure you have handled every necessary ore in your pack. Ores specified in the config but not present ingame trigger a chat warning once (reset if mod installations change).
Oreverhaul also has the (on by default) option to redo enemy base distribution, to better mesh with the oregen and desired gameplay/exploration changes.
It additionally has retrogen features, but be warned that they may not be MP compatible, and are of course rather laggy.

Is there documentation for the resource config data structure? I couldn't find it in the mod files, the mod page, or this forum.
I want to adapt my mod to work with RSO. Copying settings from one of the basic ores won't do what I want: the mod uses a custom noise function so that the resource's availability scales with distance and it becomes scarce later in the game.

This uses a lot of copper plates. I might have to add a second copper train station to bring the train throughput more in line with other stations.
I like how the ratio of copper wire, green circuits, blue circuits, utility science packs and flying robot frames at the bottom line up near enough so they are all just piped through.

"content": "I have been playing with this blueprint this WE and i found out, although it is very beautiful there are quite some ways to improve it : \n \n1) This blueprint doesn't use module instead different tier of assembly are necessary to achieve ratios, this means it doesn''t scale well in the future. \n \n2) This blueprint waste lots of room by not using underground belts and instead placing power poles between assembly. Though not enough that it will be easy to add beacons. \n \n3) There is no need for 2 rows of fast long-handed inserter per warehouse, only 1 is enough, or some stack inserters, it's not like 1.5 science per minutes require tremendous amount of material. \n \n4) The warehouses themselves are not necessary, they can be replaced by chests easily for space gain. ( they are used for only a single ressource and throughput of train was suboptimal see (6). \n \n5)The belt based balancer is 4=>4 balancer and there is only 2 red and 1 yellow belt of output but 4 red belts of inputs. It is not necessary to use a balancer in such case it is not doing anything more than the wire already connected to the belts to prevent the loader to empty the warehouse if case of imbalance. Just 3 priority splitters is enough. \n \n6)There is no room for a second train behind the one that is unloading and no good signaling on the right side to allow train to smoothly take turns, i improved improved by a lot the thoughput by adding signals, i can't tell exactly how much, that would require precise testings, but it didn't feel like adding another copper station was necessary, one can provide for 60/ 70 item per second with 2 red belts and a yellow belts ,that's not even 2 blue belts for the full train of 4 wagons. It is possible to unload 1 blue belt per wagon, using only 1 side, without too much trouble in the space gained by removing the warehouses. \n \nNow it's not per say an improvement, but i found it a way to avoid wasting ressources, for the station that unload plastic and steel, there is no need for filter inserters, those are expensive, and all 4 warehouses on each side are containing the same item, it's possible to send only steel or plastic trains, and as such reading the content of the train from the train station with a red wire and only activating one side or the other. Because I couldn't see an absolute need for sending trains that contain the proper plastic/steel ratio instead of alternating full steel and full plastic thanks to LTN making the frequency of each delivery varying but that may be because i haven't seen the plastic or steel production area. \n \nI hope you don't mind me giving a few advices back as you often do when i post some creations, in case feel free to ignore my attempt",

"content": "Didn't have beacons and very few modules. It's not mend to scale, just work for now. \n \n\nThe width is determined by the train length and the assemblers fit with the gaps. So there was no need to pack them more densely. It's not enough to add beacons later and that would not work anyway with the belt speed and completely changes the ratios. \n \n\nThat depends a lot on the inserter bonus. The game was a long time ago and since i used fast/filter inserters instead of stack/stack filter inserters that indicates it was early in the game. So maybe the double row of inserters was actually needed to keep the trains moving fast enough for the science production. Or if not for the science production it frees up the trains twice as fast so they can be retasks to service some other LTN request. Fewer trains needed overall. \n \n\nThen you have to balance 24 chests instead of 4 warehouses. It's also just simpler using a single station blueprint even if you could save a few concrete by using chests here and there. \n \n\n3 priority splitters would work. Wouldn't change anything beyond saving 3 splitters though. \n \nIn that game all stations are layed out in columns the width of a train + curves and scaled to require a train maybe every 5-10 minutes. The copper stations needs far more trains than the other stations and is an outlier in the design. Hence why I said \"to bring the train throughput more in line with other stations\". \n \n\nGetting LTN trains to ship multiple items on purpose reliably is very hard. But getting them by accident is very possible. I have a garbage dump where I send trains with leftover items or when I deconstruct stuff. And if there is steel and plastic in the garbage dump then LTN might just order a train containing both. \n \nIf I were to change the steel/plastic station I would reduce it to just 4 warehouses storing both items. Then you really don't need any filter inserters to unload. But then you need filter inserters to fill the belts instead of using loaders. \n \nAnyway, I didn't post the picture because the train stations where so beautiful....",

"content": "Ah that make sense, i was in editor mode so it was easy for me to have the modules and beacons to make some improvements. It found it helps a lot as yellow science is expensive and late game enough that i don't build a version without module and another one different later like i would do for green or red science. \n \n\nYeah i prefer having room for 2 trains everytime, so that when the first one leave, there is another one just behind, and then the 3rd can be late it's ok. Because if the trains are scheduled to arrive every 5-10 minutes, but you need 2 row of inserters to unload them fast enough for the rest of the factory not to starve, i found it's risky. A bit of congestion can add 10 to 15% to the travel time, say, and then it would break, i found it's better to have more margin. \n \n\nSorry i meant second not minutes, 1.5 science per second is bigger than 1.5 per minutes x). \nI realize it's a problem outside the blueprint now, copper station require a train every 4 minutes, and if there is delay on trains transit it would require a 3row of inserter or a 4rth to free them fast enough by reducing unload time. There is a limit obvisouly to the time you can save like this , at this point it's just better to add trains i think, as such the blueprint can stay as is but adding copper station seems risky if there is not enough trains for a single row of inserter though. \n \n\nWell to me the copper station require a train every 4 minutes, it can't be more than that as there's not enough belts. But with 2 rows of inserters it goes super fast to unload, so i'm not sure why considering adding another station and not another trains , that's obvisouly trains the shortage if you need 2 rows of inserters to free them fast enough for the rest of the factory not to starve, adding stations would not solve the problem. \n \n \n\nI have nothing against mods that make the game easier, i just thought of it as an improvement toward the not so simpler version because it solve an additionnal problem, if you have 24 chests, that makes 12 belts where you have 1 inserter on each side, 12 belts can easily combine into 6 using splitters, and since your outpout is 3 belts, i mean it's fairly doable without warehouses to have something that balances itself there, since it's only for science , and you can't add modules or beacons because it's inside rails, it's unlikely the ratios will change, it would work too. \n \nUsing chest makes it easier to use circuits to math the quantity too, because if you have millions of ore in outpost, which you can realistically do only with warehouse, then it makes it difficult to do stack division. To know how much LTN trains can/will carry. Also it is more efficient for ressources to not harvest too much ore, like millions, and put them in warehouse, as harvesting them later with more research, would yield more. As such , it was an improvement for me. \n \n\nThat's the simplest approach that would keep the wire reading the belts and the warehouse content every tick, just to remove the uncecessary splitter is a direct improvement for cost of ressources, the self balancing version is more of a conceptual challenge, like it's not even necessary to use balancer in this situation. It's like an habit i found, if i can share some advices without sounding too much like a prig, i thought you wouldn't mind, to try and spot where it is possible to avoid doing unecessary balancer. Having the wire to prevent warehouse to empty unevenly AND a balancer doing the same thing. You could do one or the other only, in both case it would still be an improvement for the CPU, and it wouldn't change anything. \n \n I know you are yourself a perfectionnist sometimes i'm surprised you just wave that detail like it's nothing. If you save 3 splitters per station, you could build additionnal mining drills or modules, and generate free ressources, so sure you lose 3 splitters worth of ressources now, but in an hour you actually miss what the ressources could have produced if better invested. I haven't done the math, but there is the notion of counpound interest that comes to mind, i wouldn't be surprised if wasting 3 splitters early game, when you don't have stack inserter yet, and no modules or beacon, delay the moment when you can actually start generating infinite ressource with modules and can cause a huge descrepancy over time. \n \n \n\nI have no problem imagining the situation, it happened to me to request 1000 iron, but my trains only had 3 wagons. It was always leaving some leftovers and messing up with the counts until i realize my mistake. \n \n\nThat's how accident happens ! \n \n\nYou can use filter on loaders sometimes, i'm not sure which one you used. It would be more efficient to use shared warehouse that's for sure but that kind of defeat the pupose of using warehouse to simplify logistic if you are going to use them in a complicated way x). I would still note that as an improvement, but for such cases it feel like trivializing things a bit too much for me. \n \n\nI thought you were sharing your plans of adding copper stations to improve the designs, you are severe, beauty is subjective, it's often in the eye of the person who look don't we say ? To me it looks beautiful, when i look at it , i get positive sensation.",

"content": "It's similar but having a better rail layout allowing a limit of 2 allow to spare 4 warehouses and 48 insterters, almost a stack ! I prefer personnaly not having to limit my stations to just 1 incoming train, because then it's only when the currently unloading trains leaves that the next one start its travel, and it can be very far away. Whereas increasing the limits from 1 to 2 allow to have one train unloading when the second one is moving to replace it, or waiting just behind. That's what i would improve first. \n \nIt's easier when you continue building i found to add more trains on existing stations, to make up for the increasing distance at which you gather ore, when the starting one deplete, rather than adding a whole station that would be limited to 1 incoming train for fear of blocking the main lane. That works with LTN too, it's not always the case if you turn off stations yourself, but here it would have been possible to have 2 or 3 trains scheduled to deliver at the same place at the same time. It helps to have large buffers with warehouses, such stations with so many inserters and so much buffer look like high-throughput station to me. I think it's overkill for only a train every 4 minutes for copper , and 1 trains every 10 minutes for the others but that's more my personnal opinion i'm giving there, not really an advice. \n \n\nThat answer another interrogation, because i thought loaders may have been used to unload from trains to warehouse, but i didn't know which mod you used, ( same for the long handed fast filter inserters btw). People keep making them look nicer and nicer and i can't recognize those i have used anymore. I suppose i would use loader to unload the train into warehouse if i could. Because that's where there seem to be the highest need for throughput. I suppose you have the loaders that are good for high throughput assemblers then but wouldn't work on trains that's unlucky. \n \nI'm still a bit confused because despite your explanations it seem to me not more efficient than using chests, it would require 12 inserters per wagon too, 6 to put in chest, and 6 to put in belt, but that's it, whereas your design require an additionnal loader on top of the 12 inserters.That's one of the thing i changed after adding some room for a second train at the unloading. I'm saying this because the bottom part can not really be improved unless everything is changed to accomodate modules and beacons. But the upper part was to me responsible for the tentation to add another station and it could be improved i thought in a way that would not require more stations. ( additionnal trains do not make the blueprint \"larger\").",

This is not a new idea, but now with the "read working" signal on centrifuges there's a clean way to make cursed Kovarex enrichment.
The unloading inserter triggers when all 4 machines are working (signal W = 4). The downside is that the machines can possibly overload with U-235. This could easily be fixed by setting the stack size of each feeding inserter to be 40 - (quantity of 235 in the centrifuge) but I want to share it now. It's mildly interesting.

Add the ability to read distance along a space route via scripting

Hello, I think this would be fantastic because as of right now, the only way of obtaining the distance a platform has traveled is by summing up a platforms speed over an interval of time. This works alright at best, and can only be very general. There is no way of telling whether a platform is traveling from A to B, or B to A. All the platform knows is it is traveling and has been at A or B last, and is aiming to get to C. This was a rough analogy, but there is stuff left to be desired for scripting here.
For an in game example, I am trying to run some scripts when a platform is traveling from the solar system edge (SSE) to the shattered planet (SP). I can detect when the last space location was SSE, and if the next station is the SP. However, when the platform turns around, it still believes the last space location was SSE, and now the next station may or may not be SSE, so its return trip is not entirely clear where it ends.

About Biter Clash: Biter Clash is an indirect PvP Factorio mod that is heavily influenced by Biter Battles scenario. If you want to compete in Factorio, normal PvP seems not fun for you and speedrunning seems too repetitive (or you if want to do something else from time to time) then this might be a mod for you. More information can be found on the mod portal: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/biter-clash or on Biter Clash Discord: https://discord.gg/fhwUCc8vzG
First Biter Clash 1v1 balance test tournament will start on August 19 2023. This is a friendly casual tournament so good sportsmanship is required and players of all skill levels are welcome. Detailed rules below:
Organizer: PunkSkeleton
Tournament format:
1. 1st round on August 19, multiple single elimination groups of 4, no seeding of any kind.
2. Randomization will be done by https://www.random.org/sequences/ , player numbers will be given on the basis of registration order.
3. In case of player number not being the multiply of 4 up the 3 last groups will consist of 3 players. In case of 5 registered players 1st group will consist of 3 players, 2nd group will consist of 2 players.
4. All matches are best of 1, winner of each group advances to the final stage.
5. Matches in each group are played sequentially and there is no 3rd place match. As the matches usually last between 20 - 50 minutes each group should take at most 3 hours to complete.
6. Players currently not playing their match are encouraged to referee and/or host for the ones playing.
7. 2 terms for the first round: 09:00 UTC ("far east" + early Europe) and 18:00 UTC (evening Europe + early Americas), players may freely choose which term they want to play. Registration to each group will begin 30 minutes before each term start time and will end 10 minutes before each term start time on Biter Clash Discord: https://discord.gg/fhwUCc8vzG . There will be separate channel called tournament-registration in which you just have to write your in-game name during the registration time. Potential players are encouraged to announce their participation and discuss which term they want to choose.
8. 2nd round: single elimination, all matches are best of 3 unless average match time for 1st round exceeds 1 hour. Match times will be chosen depending on time-zones of the players. Note for players from America: if you happen to be drawn against a player from the "far east" then your 1st match of the 2nd round match should probably happen during your evening on 19th . In the unlikely event of more than 4 players in that stage the tournament may be finished on the next weekend.
There is currently one public Biter Clash server available: Redmew BiterClash PunkSkeleton.
Game rules:
1. Factorio latest stable version + newest version of Biter Clash. Game balance will be frozen for the last week before the tournament.
2. Tournament mode enabled.
3. Players are allowed to play the game on any server they choose. Dedicated hosting is not required, it is encouraged that one of the players from the group that is not currently playing hosts the game.
3. Player from the top end of the bracket plays on the north.
4. After the server is started one map regeneration must be performed after both players have joined the game. Only the maps that have no land connection between the spawning area and the starting are considered not playable and are to be regenerated again but this has never happened until now .
5. Surrender is allowed by picking up the rocket silo.
6. Any tactics are allowed. This includes "direct" PvP like:
- using bots to landfill and bring land mines to the opponent's base (in case if player tries to enter the river it is teleported back by the game)
- researching bazillion levels of artillery shooting range and attacking the opponent base directly
- attacking spawners with multiple nukes to destroy them etc.
7. Both players must be on the server for the match start. No late-joining is allowed.
8. Team ready must be checked no later then 5 minutes after the map finishes generating.
9. Pause is allowed only in cases of special circumstances like a courier delivery at the door or an accident.
10. Winning players must publish a screenshots of both research insight and total production insight on the Biter Clash Discord. You must switch to spectator mode to do that.
11. Allowed debug options are: show-fps, show-clock, show-multiplayer-statistics, show-tile-grid. Other debug options are not allowed. Allowed console commands are /s, /shout and /color.
12. No 3rd party tools are allowed, that includes even live split. In particular using keyboard or mouse macros is not allowed and will result in immediate lifelong ban. Stream sniping or any outside help (including stream chat) is also not allowed.
13. In the unlikely event of a critical bug being discovered (last one was item carryover bug fixed in version 0.2.5 on 05.06.2023) the order of the proceeding is:
a) if it is possible a new version of Biter Clash fixing the bug without the need to restart a new version of the game is released and the game continues from the last save
b) if it is not possible to create such a new version quickly and the bug has a known cause that can be avoided without severly impairing the chances of one of the players then the game continues from the last save and the players/observers are asked to not repeat the actions that lead to this bug
c) if it is not possible to do the above actions then a new version of Biter Clash is prepared and the game is started from the beginning
Critical bugs are: game crash during the game, having extra items at the start of the game, not being able to place nests, starting blueprint not being converted, free resources not spawning, placing nest on your own side, instant victory, invincible biters etc.
Not critical bugs are things like game crash after the game or during specific circumstance before the start of the game, some values not being consistent with the guide etc.
Rewards:
Winner of the whole tournament: automatic qualification to the main stage for any following Biter Clash competitions run or supported by PunkSkeleton.
Winners of the 1st round's groups: automatic qualification to the 2nd round of qualifiers (if applicable) or seeding into the first round for any following Biter Clash competitions run or supported by PunkSkeleton.
Both rewards include team competitions, it is enough for one player from the team to earn the reward to benefit the whole team.
Final note:
Rules are to be followed as is. In case of any controversies the decision made by the organizers is final.

You made a cool suggestion and there is only a reply like
This is not, what you wanted.
En Dotter replied here this wonderful answer:
Well, we had such kind of discussions already. So I want to present the results.
The reasons why it is very useful, that mods are mentioned in suggestions are:
If there is a mod, there is a much bigger chance that the idea is added into vanilla.
By using a mod there is a much bigger chance that the mod is added into vanilla, than by discussing around.
A working implementation (=code) is much more worth than 100,000 words. (Sorry, but every programmer knows that this is true)
By using a mod (=increasing the download count) you motivate the modder much more, than you can imagine.
Logically: By using a mod bugs of that mods will be fixed (if reported of course).
By using a mod you have a much higher chance to influence development, than for the vanilla. (You can talk directly with the modder! In general they are much more willing to implement your ideas into their mods, than the Factorio-dev-team )
A suggestion may sound very useful in theory. Yes, in most cases this true, when implemented. But I've seen also some cases where this wasn't so (even some of my ideas). The idea wasn't playable/not such a good idea as it sounded. Until you haven't tried out a new concept there is just no prove.
It can take months to years, until your suggestion is implemented into vanilla, cause there are a lot more other ideas.
Because it takes so long to be implemented it is useful to use a mod instead, cause the game changes and your idea needs an update or becomes absurd.
Others than you read this suggestions and will try out mods, even if you would never do that.
Modders read this suggestions and if their mod is mentioned their target (players know their mod, download count) is achieved. Logically they get also much more interested to implement your idea.
EDIT March 2021: https://alt-f4.blog/ALTF4-21/
Hope that helps you to understand, that there is no malicious of mentioning mods, instead it makes much sense to keep it this way.
It also makes much sense, that you as a someone who has suggested things, tries out similar ideas, that already has been implemented as mod.

Not all are good, but there are way more good ideas than the game will ever be able to see implemented. \n \nSome ideas should be implemented in vanilla one day, because they either are necessary to make the game more whole, or just complete a half-placeholder a game element works (better interface, helpers, handling of fluids, ...), the kind of things for which you reach because you feel there should be there, and ...nope. \n \nSome alter the game philosophy, mechanics, ... These, even very good, belong to the modding sphere no matter what. \n \nSecond, don't forget that if someone has ever made a mod for something, it's already a suggestion in itself, and a proof of concept on top of that. If you get answered that there is a mod for something, it's that someone before you has has the same - or similar - idea as you, and went one step further.

The vanilla game has been tweaked and finetuned for balance and long-term enjoyment by the developers. I realize that even the developers won't get everything quite right, at least on the first try, but overall the vanilla experience has a certain authenticity to it: this is the way the game is supposed to be. \n \nWhile I am sure that most modders strive to maintain a good balance in their mods, I know from experience with other games that mods can vary quite a lot when it comes to quality and balance, so that some mods may make the game entirely too easy. \n \nIf I play with mods I will always have the nagging feeling that I am not playing right, that I am cheating, simply because I can't be sure that a given mod isn't OP or breaking game balance. Now this might just be my personal problem, but I am sure other players think along the same lines. \n \nIt would be cool (and probably unlikely) if there was some kind of \"seal of approval\" by the developers, that a certain mod fits well into the vanilla base game and seems to be well balanced. \n \nAll that being said, I discovered some cool mods yesterday and am likely to try them out sometime soon.",

Hello,
Is there a way to set a welcome message when people join a server, I have had a google with no results.
What I would like is when someone new joins a server a message pops up much like when you start a new solo game, but with information like server rules and info about our discord channel.
Thanks in advance.

[1.1.5] Ctrl+V does not paste blueprint string

So I first encounter this when trying to past a blueprint in the blueprint import window.
-Won't work in game (Ctrl+c works, but not Ctrl+v)
-Won't work in the import window
My input setting are the one by default and although my keyboard layout is not standard US (still Qwerty, just a other language), but even when using the US standard layout and resetting the game, Ctrl+v do not work.

I'm trying to automate trains as much as possible.
Lets use in this example that I'm trying to move around Steel.
I was trying to add conditions for leaving a station when they attempt to go to stations called:
*Wagon*Pickup
Specifically, that their conditions for leaving are either when they have full cargo OR when the station pass the signal Steel, which is then used in
"*Steel* station is full"
This could work in theory, since all of my steel dropoff stations are called *Steel*, i.e. the icon for steel.

Extremely minor thing.
Given all inserters now have identical filtering options, it seems pointless to me to have all inserters display the tooltip line that reads "Can filter items." when it is not a distinctive piece of information (anymore) and no other items with filtering capability hold this text.
