Something that sounds great to me, given all the constraints mentioned here, would be to give logistic bots diminishing (but probably never zero) marginal returns as you have more of them. E.g., maybe all the bots become very slightly slower as the number of bots in a network increases according to ...

FYI, this still works in 0.14 if you just change factorio_version in info.json to "0.14".

I didn't really pay attention to the "wood from algae" chain previously, but I'm looking at it now that it's easier to set up than greenhouses and... it looks like it's wood-negative (at least if you have Bob's mods)? 5 synthetic wood, which is the equivalent of 2.5 logs, requires 3 resin...

Yays... First update of the new year! Plates 0.12.11: * Polishing wheel synthetic wood recipe set to 2 seconds. * Electrolysis reballance (water electrolysis and salt water electrolysis recipe) * Fixed power consumption of Electrolyser MK1 to 180kW from 144kW, bringing it to 225kJ per time 1 recipe...

hmm, why is Download YI-Mod unclear ? and here this thread-header says - Informations ... not Download also i think no one new read this complete thread from the beginning - i can put this into archive and start a new one, but then you lost the history. so, it's also the Suggestion-thread - any ide...

I'm guessing this has been done somewhere, but I can't find it: Where can I read a high-level description (like, a few paragraphs) of the different things these mods do? The download post: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=12214 only links to various videos, which, well: a wise ma...

I loved Anno 2070 and I expect I'd love this too; will definitely try it out next time I want a new game.

Until then, is there any way you could generate a production graph as a preview for us?

I like this a lot, kind of silly IMO that the default textures are so low-res. Two things: 1. WaiTex doesn't seem to cooperate with ExtraChests, despite the note in 0.8 that seems to say it should. Among other things, ExtraChests adds a consistent tinting scheme to the Bobmods levelled constructs (w...

I just spent several minutes fixing this myself, so, sharing the knowledge: I added several new mods and I saw stuttering like this -- a brief freeze every several seconds (notably affecting the OS, not just Factorio). Then I tried updating to the latest full-size WaiTex (high-res textures mod) on a...

Nice! This seems to work fine if I start a new game and research logistics, but the recipes don't show up in an existing game where I had logistics researched, even if I call game.player.force.reset_technologies() and game.player.force.reset_recipes().

Great, very good, excellent, etc. It could be cool to detect if the user has RSO Radar installed, then scale up the RadarMk#ScanDistances if so; I went with 40, 50, 60, 70. (Pretty easy for the user to change themselves since they're already in the config.lua, but, if you're looking at that again an...

Tried adding the refining mod, along with the newest RSO (1.5.4). On startup I get: Error in assignID, resource-category with name 'angels-fissure' does not exist. I see that the thermal extractor has `resource_categories = {"angels-fissure"}`, and it looks like RSO does mention "ange...

Thank you so much for this. Especially the art for the various circuit boards; I was getting really tired of looking at literal solid-color squares on my conveyor belts.

As long as we're all talking about image sizes... hosting things like this on S3 instead of your own server is likely to save you far more attention in the long run than any amount of image formatting or optimizing (though converting gifs to HTML5 video is also a good idea).

I love the infinite ore thing, especially with RSO -- having to completely destruct a mining outpost just feels weird, and as the most recent Friday Facts pointed out, it's a large and repetitive attention sink in the late game. I'm kind of ambivalent about the ore processing, though. It feels a bit...

I like this a lot. It makes thematic sense and it provides the right amount of pressure toward "hey, you should automate this" without the rigidity of the "no crafting/manual labor at all" mods. Thanks!

Amazing. Best mod I have installed.

Feature request: explosion size should be based on size of thing.

Edit: After rocket launchering my factory for a few minutes, nah, the unpredictable variety is nice. It is perfect.

You might want to look at https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=93&t=17548 . They feel less cheaty and offer more options. They're huge, like you would expect to grow trees and they need water. you can add red or green sci packs to grow more wood. Thanks! This is pretty much what I wanted...

An interesting choice. Solar panels should probably be more space efficient than greenhouses, but greenhouses should probably be able to recoup their energy loss by burning their product. Mebbe your debuff is a little too "de-"? 40 wood every 600s (50 minus the 10 for the next batch) is 2...
