(The only brief prior discussion I can find of this is https://forums.factorio.com/116325)

I find it generally useful (or at least interesting) to be able to tell if something was changed in a major version or a minor version. This has, historically, been pretty easy to tell: if it ends in .0 (0.15 ...

Oh that could be. With the prosilver theme that is pretty much what it looks like. Harder to read on the factorio32 theme though.

I don't remember noticing this before (maybe it's new?), but one of these buttons looks wrong:
If I remove the bbcode-key class from that button it appears as I expect.

This appears to happen in all 4 forum themes.

Is there a mode/hotkey in which I can only place an item if a matching/similar blueprint ghost is already there? like when building a smelter stack pre-bots? it would make placing 100+ inserters less of a chore


No. I believe the rationale is that making manual placement (and handcrafting and ...

I admit this may be a bit too overcomplicated, but I know of more than one game that does things this way, and it's not like you guys shy away from overcomplicated design. Would it be possible to change the value to opengl at the same time as implementing a configuration schema updater to fix ...

I didn't even notice that line in the log. That certainly explains the slow rendering. Using the same version of Factorio. Since I'm using an Nvidia GPU, Mesa should not be very involved (beyond the vendor-neutral loader I think).

Still hoping to get time sooner to run a few more tests. I'd like ...

Factorio is using software rendering (llvmpipe) instead of your GPU. If you're using the same version of Factorio as before the update, that seems like either a Plasma issue or a Mesa issue.

If you're using Steam, right click on Factorio -> properties -> betas and you can choose basically any version. If you're using the version from the website, go to https://factorio.com/download/archive.

Shift + scroll, I think.

Settings -> output -> recording -> video bitrate

Well, in the case I linked above, that was in the sandbox with a completely empty nauvis, no other planets, and just the one space platform. Having it be multithreaded per surface would probably be an easy change with low regression risk, but I doubt it would make a noticeable difference if the ...

I take it this is the case even if they're on different surfaces due to scripting?

Since there are currently quite some bugs reports concerning smart belts, I was wondering what is currently the best way I should report those bugs:
- file one new report with all "new" bugs I can find (like I did here)
- file a new report for each different bug (that would mean 5 reports ...

Why?

Is this a Windows error or a Factorio error box?

There are definitely large communities in both of those places, I haven't personally noticed a huge change here though. There was a burst of activity when 2.0 came out.

What version are you on?

Can you post a log of the crash, and a save with that setup?

Right. This does exist in some places (statistics?) I believe.
