Re: Friday Facts #393 - Putting things on top of other things

I have to honestly say that the 60ips belt is absolutely unwatchable, both with items on it and without. I literally hurts my eyes and not in a good way. Because the GIF is only 24fps or less, I suppose? It's skipping half the frames, and items are jumping much further than they should. And it's al...

Re: Friday Facts #393 - Putting things on top of other things

I have to honestly say that the 60ips belt is absolutely unwatchable, both with items on it and without. I literally hurts my eyes and not in a good way. Even with the coloring trick applied, it is something I'd actively avoid in the factory due to the graphics if it remains like this. The screens I...

Re: Rich Text in LTN stops?

Since I cant find my post about converting tags in console anymore here it is again: /c local stops = game.surfaces["nauvis"].find_entities_filtered{type="train-stop"} for _, stop in pairs(stops) do stop.backer_name = string.gsub(stop.backer_name, "item=", "img=it...

Log messages containing icons show both the icon and the icondescription

When displaying log messages, a station name containing an icon will show both the icon and the name of the icon in the notification.
If at all possible, it would be prettier if only the icon could be displayed.
An example of this is the following screencap:

[1.1.26] Item in hand when game was saved is lost

So I was running around with my spidertron killing aliens with the remote in my hand and some rockets in the other, when all of a sudden I make a mistake, died and reloaded my latest autosave. The spidertron remote I had in my hand is no longer with me, and because I am sure that I didn't drop it or...

Re: [1.1.19] Autodrag underground belt removes belt from unconnected beltnetwork

Thanks for the tip, ptx0. It is unfortunate, but understandable after final release, even though I think that after all the logic and intelligence that went into coding this in, it is a shame that the functionality would be classed as unimportant, out of scope or otherwise ignored, as this is in my ...

[kovarex] [1.1.19] Autodrag underground belt removes belt from unconnected beltnetwork

Dear Factorio Staff Thank you very much for the great work that went into getting the game out. Recent addition of the auto underground built functionality is extremely useful. This, combined with the information on the "belt system" which allows for multithreading, should enable the engin...

Re: circuit network connector for hidden loader entity basegame missing

But really I think the overall point I'm trying to make here is that there doesn't seem to be any *reason* for some things to be wireable and some not to be other than "we like the way it makes players have to build interesting solutions." That's fair enough as it goes, but why *here* and...

Re: circuit network connector for hidden loader entity basegame missing

Since when do we live in a manual world :o Not sure about myself, but you're living there since the moment you enabled game functionality that wasn't in active development for many years, ne? :-) You do of course have a point, but since the base objects are still in the game, shouldn't they represe...

circuit network connector for hidden loader entity basegame missing

Dear Factorio Devs Recently I discovered the existance of the loader objects via the loaders mod. After some further investigation, I learned these are actually existing game objects that are hidden in the base game. I would be extremely grateful if these loaders - even though they are deemed over p...
