As always when trying to describe a ""simple"" setup with word, i feel like a blueprint would help much more, so i also join a blueprint that follows what i just described to illustrate a memory cell that update a value every 300 ticks ...

Someone's been watching "Alien Worlds", i suppose.

"as they only read belt contents and their output is not used by other belt readers"

This is foreshadowing

The first seconds of unannounced planets soundtracks made me think "Are we having surprise crossover with Genshin or something?"

I really hope there will be change to the names of quality levels.

I still think incorporating LTN into 2.0 would be cleaner approach

Not gonna lie, I do not vibe with the graphic aspect of stacking at all.
Something about building tall towers of loose and/or unwieldy times makes me uneasy.

This will be one of parts of this update that I hope will be modded soon

I admire the idea of making train schedules make more sense than they do in current vanilla, but in my honest opinion you should have done to LTN what you did to Space Exploration.

Hire its creator and seamlessly integrate the whole mod into 2.0.

Wube just going around making mods obsolete

Me no like it
Me no like it very much

From the names, through the RNG mess of the system involved, to the implications on the gameplay

The expansion isn't yet released and I am already waiting for a mod that will un-dumdum this concept

So what comes next, Factorio 3.0 Bobangels Boogaloo?

Well I have almost already fixed it in 1.2 with all the GUI cleanups,
I will add it to my TODO list

Would it be possible to move the fuel burning bar to the next line rather than scrunching it up that small?


Sure, I will probably make it check if there are ...

Yay
Wonder how long it will take to port bobangles for the new expansion

I can totally see someone modding the crash site remnants into replacement of rocket silo as final step to finish the game.

Hell, even the vanilla game can reduce silo into white science generator and make rebuilding the spaceship a final step of game

This used to be a plan long time ago, but lately, especially after doing it for the beacon, I am glad we have not done that. It would fine to do if the game was 3D and we could just rotate and place 3D models of modules into the slot positions on machines, but dealing with all the 2D variations ...

Sweet baby jesus those chemplants look completely arousing
I kinda want Refineries retouched too a bit.

For love of gods, dear Wube, just add them loaders into game properly.
They're the only way belts can win with bots.
(Except another tier of belts, obviously)

We're getting new generator for maps, and god bless you all for that.
But this raises some questions too.
Cold biomes when.
Swamp biomes when.
Alium creep biomes when. Especially if they actually do creep and require flammenwerfers to be removed.

Both belts and bugsies need some love too. New tier ...

I've got an idea about big and smol assemblers last night.
What if smaller assemblers were cheaper to build and faster at work, but more expensive to run, while bigger were the opposite?
So for example smol t1 assembler prepares two iron gears in 0,66 s (33% gain), but requires 5 iron plates (25 ...

Why does this new sign look weird?
