warehouse for circuits and networks
Is there a mod which allows you to place circuit combinators and networks into a warehouse and get signals in and out of this warehouse? My problem is that I often need some little circuit networks for steering certain factory parts, yet these networks take a lot more space than I would want them to...

Re: [MOD 0.16] Bulk Rail Loaders
@Therax
Found the problem; I installed the mod without reading all thru the descriptions.
I tried to load iron plates, so by description this doesn't work. Thanks for the hint and sorry to bothering you with this.

Re: [MOD 0.16] Bulk Rail Loaders
Well, I have some difficulties as well with the loaders. Some of them work, others don't. I tested rebuilding them and manually driving trains, but it doesn't work either. It's really strange, since others work and I don't know the difference between those. So is the loading point in the center of t...

blue print vertical scrolling
This would be my idea for a little mod (if this doesn't exist already). Sometimes it bothers me that, when scrolling with the mouse wheel, the selection scrolls sideways and not vertically. This just doesn't work that well for an ergonomic appilication (yes, it works, but vertically would be the mos...

Re: combination locomotive + freight car
@steinio, I thought about the fuel problem as well. I wonder if it is possible to give a loco 2 different properties > we all know that loco and car work perfectly on their own. The loco and the freight car cover an area of about 2 x 6 tiles each. So I was wondering if it was possible to create a ra...

combination locomotive + freight car
Hi, would it be possible to combine a locomotive with a freight car? My I idea and intention is to use this instead of bots (cause it feels like cheating) for the short range and quick transport of few needed items. The problem with trains is that they use alot of space and this would be the least s...

Solid edge > Blender modelling
Hi guys, I have a short question for all the more advanced modellers. For a long time I tried to create a texture pack for factorio. I tried blender and ultimatly couldn't get this modelling to work my way. I do however have good experience in Solid Edge (a CAD-software, i am more the engineer guy);...

Hi, since I have a lot of ideas for mods I've long been thinking to get into it myself. The problem is, that I tried to get used to blender and it simply doesnt do it for me. Now I have a lot of fun creating 3D Objects in Solid Edge and I would like to know if it would be possible to create such ski...

Re: Borderlands 2 Trains and Tracks
Considering the wheels; the trains have (almost) none, because they are some sort of maglev trains. The locomotives do have bogies that connect to a single centerline rail (which would be about 1 m wide in real life), but the cars all levitate above the rail. So there is that. I better give some scr...

Borderlands 2 Trains and Tracks
As a fan of the game Borderlands 2 I'd wonder if someone could make a skin-mod so that train locomotives, cars and tracks would look like those from the game. Since trains here and there are deadly and ludicrously fast in the same way, it would still fit in in a way and would give the game a more fu...

power visualisation change
There is a problem with way the power production is shown, which bothers me for quite some time now. When clicking on a power pol, a gui pops up, which would show you the power production and consumption of your factory. And yet one thing that I really need to know is the total power produced in con...

Re: Train unloading at circuit network controlled rail signals
I'd say firstly; it looks kind of stupid, secondly; you need to insert all those stops with the exact number of stations into your timetable, which would make it quite long. If you had just one destination and an interupt + unloading, the system setup would be a lot easier. I must admit, I've never ...

Rail car/locomotive scanners
TL;DR This is like a belt scanner; connect a wire to a rail segment and it becomes a scanner which can read the contens of the vehicle above it, be it rail car or locomotive. What ? The creation should be as easy as with the belts. Connect a wire to a segment of rail and the segment gets a scan-opt...

Re: Stack assembly machines
I like the idea. I just wonder how this should be implmented, cause if inserters can grab whole stacks, should assemblers be able to process those stacks as well, or should stacks be converted back into single items inside the assmbler again? I myself had a suggestion, which would require the assemb...

Re: Decider combinator with "Anything" output
+1 I do like this idea as well and I have also wanted it for a long time. Sometimes I think the decider c should also be able to output a constant (like the selection option of the second decider condition select window). Like this other values could be put out instead of just 1 and the input value....

Re: Chain Saw
I kind of agree to this.
Though its possible to assemble hand granades quite early (which 2-shot an area) it feels realy awkward to chopp down forests like that. I wonder if there might be a more plausible solution.

Re: decider combinator bug
Can your report be condensed to: "everything > 1" is true when not having an input signal? This seems to be the case. This only seems to apply, when the output-option "signal=1 / true" is selected. If you set the decider c output to "output input-signal" the decider c ...
