stuff My guess is your cleaning loop isn't happening in a predictable order. I.e. you're using a local variable instead of a global to save/pause/resume the inserter scanner at different "positions" in the table, thus resulting in a desync when items are removed from different inserters f...

Found another ui bug. (spidertron/vehicle grid)


*Edit: Oh I see it, it adds text to the bottom so it resizes, pfff lol working as intended. 10/10

The warning signal appears to overlap gui layers beneath it without visibly overlapping. Seems like bug.

Step 1. (data.lua) artillery=table.deepcopy(data.raw.gun["artillery-wagon-cannon"]) artillery.name="lol" data:extend{artillery} table.insert(data.raw["spider-vehicle"].spidertron.guns,artillery.name) Step 2. Factorio crashed. Generating symbolized stacktrace, please wai...

I don't fully understand what you're suggesting, but i think it's about how a spidertron may be far away with a t3 assembling machine, but your character doesn't have any so you can't use the normal ghost placement thing to order the spidertron to build things. About all i can suggest is try the blu...

Perhaps this could instead be achieved by using requester/buffer chests for the items you want to one-time-order.

Figured as much. It's brand new! Amazing addition, really changes the end game. For the moment i just boot players out of their spiderbot and clone like a regular entity which works reasonably. I could do some tracking to find the cloned bot and re-insert the player but, with spiderbots being a vehi...

All great thoughts, but, particularly with the spiderbots being added with remote control while being allowed their own mobile roboports, the rate of repeat occurrence of this situation is dramatically higher than it used to be. I agree that destruction may not be the best solution. I like the idea ...

I suggested this a while ago in Suggestions and expected 1000 +1's

I got 2.

Because it's a terrible idea.

Ever tried double click?

robots, particularly player construction robots, should self destruct if they are left flying without power for too long. Please dear God, no. Care to add anything useful to the discussion? Perhaps you missed the part where To prevent random construction bots that were accidentally abandoned on the...

To prevent random construction bots that were accidentally abandoned on the other side of the map consuming a players construction bot capacity leaving them wondering why their roboports aren't working, robots, particularly player construction robots, should self destruct if they are left flying wit...

I'm suggesting add more uses. I think steam is a good option to use heat in recipes. Practically speaking, there isn't much difference between using say, kinetic-heatpipes, or having a fluid named "kinetic energy" run through fluid pipes, except for (the point of this suggestion) the medi...

Cars can be teleported between surfaces (because they can contain players), but the spidertron cannot.

.. Why?

2. Could someone make it so that enemies will only spawn more frequently and not also upgrade/spawn larger types of enemies as evolution scale increases? Could also the number of units per spawn interval also be increased similarly? game.map_settings.* has more options to change biter behavior duri...

The range is limited and there is only one use.

I'm suggesting add more uses.

recipes requiering heated fluids seems promising.... E.g. Solar-Thermal arrays..... Compared to that, heat from nuclear would be „produced“ in great quantity, but beeing mostly too hot. Balancing it by the requirement of space consuming long heat pipes or some sort of cooling tower. recipes requiri...

I did it on default settings using save states with 2 hours to spare.

Basically, there are only two mediums a resource tends to take in terms of logistics and transportation around the factory excluding electricity. Either it's on a belt, or it's in a pipe. Heat pipes could be considered a third medium, but it does a very poor job of it - its only purpose being to tra...

Character looks strange without the shadow on top of bodies, why is the shadow underneath them?

Sounds like a bug.

Could you provide a prototype to test?
Saves me having to write them up.

Also what about filter inserters?
