I'd love to try out your mod, it looks amazing!

Eventually . I'm very busy in the short term but I'll get around to it.

Finally for now my thoughts on making it so it's more and more grey goo than wall-e working alone to build an empire. The pic assumes you keep starting with a 3x3 grid of cells for your start and head to that same first cell moving counter-clockwise around the formatted area, but instead every cell...

Hey guys, sorry for the hiatus, been really busy. I'll try to check out Nexela's updates and push a new version of the mod soonish.

There may be still some problems with merging trains. Materials can get changed in something else after coupling. Here's an example: The plastic train couples and after coupling, copper in the last waggon gets changed into steal. http://imgur.com/Vgou7jw Hmm. Does this always happen with that confi...

Just want to say that this is awesome and hasn't got nearly the attention it deserves. Looking forward to V2 and self replication!

The race to the first self-replicating factory is on.

I've actually run into this in real games (https://imgur.com/MJzVb8p). Possibly a bug with signals for allowing that in the first place, though.

No. That's why I ask. Oh sorry, didn't understand the question. No, the coupler rail doesn't act as a rail signal. You can see in the video that I add signals next to some of the coupler rails but not others; sometimes you need it, sometimes you don't. A couple of the ones in the video are hard to ...

Is the coupler a rail signal or why doesnt the parked wagons don't block the station? Watch the linked video, all your questions will be answered there. Therefore, in this thread, I have suggested that, in Factorio, locomotives should generally be symmetrical and that trains should always be able t...

Sweet, thanks.

In what cases will calling train.front_rail or train.back_rail return nil? Since it's impossible to place a train without rail I'm curious so things don't break unexpectedly. As a side note, is there any direct way of getting the unminable rails underneath a wagon, short of getting all nearby rails ...

Have you ever wanted to build a railyard with storage, cargo wagon sorting, train breakdown and recombination, the works? Well now you can! I put together the Train Coupler mod with this in mind. Here's a video of a very simple railyard prototype: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQAgWssR2aY And here...

Info Name: Train Coupler Description: Adds the coupler rail, which automatically couples/decouples wagons if it's aligned with a gap when the train stops at a station. Tested with Factorio version: 0.14.22 Locale: English License: MIT License. I'd appreciate if you contribute via github instead of ...

A god-mode player with no character can still enter vehicles and travel with them, and the vehicle is visible through player.vehicle, but vehicle.passenger is nil. As far as I can tell, there's no way to assign a god-mode player to a vehicle. I assume multiple god-mode players can follow a single ve...

Trains cant even automatically be put on track. Would be kind of fun though to watch a 4x4 train assembler spewing out long trains like OTTD depots. Train-deployer/train-assembler has been on my project list for some time, I just haven't come up with a sufficiently good in game mechanic for it... I...

Playing this, I've had it run out of yellow belts and medium power poles, on cells that had a lot of mining going on. Also it gradually fills up with stone from the boulders that it removes. Did you mean to use fast inserters instead of stack inserters on the mining cell chest->train part? Yeah, ru...

Smarter Trains is the one I was referring to. Updated the OP. Good luck!

Ok. I think adding orientation to create_entity would be very helpful, though. I'm actually quite confused with how direction turns into orientation: if I'm trying to place a locomotive on a curved rail, with orientation=0.335, the directions east, southeast, west, and northwest all give me the corr...
