Re: Version 2.0.72


Changes

Decider combinator, arithmetic combinator and selector combinator are now primary energy consumers and have buffer increased to make them more reliable in case of low power.



How much was the change?

Re: [Wish] Added delay before switching over to another location's music in remote view

I'd really like the behavior to be keep playing the current song/music until that song finishes, then pick the next song based on my current (remote view) location.

I never want a song to cut off early but I also want to be able to experience all of the songs without having to make any manual ...

Re: Event request: on_player_cursor_ghost_changed

I'm updating one of my mods for SA 2.0 and I was wondering if this maybe got implemented?

Thanks! 🧑

UPDATE:
So it maybe seems like the `on_player_cursor_stack_changed` event also triggers when a the ghost on the cursor changes. Could use better documentation, but works!

So happy reading about Factoriopedia!

One suggestion, which you may have already considered, having bi-directional links between relevant Factoriopedia sections and "tips and tricks" pages. For example, the "tips and tricks" for power poles, or trains, or liquids might link to the Factoriopedia ...

Re: Friday Facts #394 - Assembler flipping and circuit control

As a mod developer, this FF got me thinking. So it would make sense that 1.0 mods would not be forward compatible with 2.0, but will 2.0 mods be 1.0 compatible? Will it be possible to make 2.0 mods that also "just work" for 1.0?

For example, as a mod developer for 2.0, will I need to check the game ...

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


I dunno, gonna be honest this is the first one that's had me kinda worried. Now a 2 wagon train can outperform 8 wagon trains. This feels like a very big move towards scale up rather than scale out, and scaling out has always been where Factorio's emergent complexity, the part that makes the game ...

Re: Friday Facts #384 - Combinators 2.0

Super awesome FFF! πŸš€

Also love all of the ideas. And an extra plus one to some clocks, maybe a mode of the constant combinator, that can tell:
● surface/planet time of day (in ticks)
● total game time (in ticks) (to allow sync between planets/surfaces/spaceships)
● daylight sensor for current ...

Re: Option to make server wait for slowest client

Maybe this could be regulated via some type of permission (if anti-griefing is desired). The server could yield to users/clients with a permission, but not others. I'm not sure if this, or probably technical limitations make this prohibitive. πŸ€”

Out of curiosity (I know it isn't likely to change the ...

I'm a mod author encountering this message and I'm not sure what changed in 1.1, or how I should correct it for my mod.

I'm looking at my prototype (see below) and I don't see anything related to "request slot".

Allow "OR" prerequisites in technology prototype

Instead of Technology#prerequisites always being an AND requirement, I would love to see an option/flag for OR, at the prototype level.

I could envision something like a flag that just switches it from AND to OR (which would be sufficient for my needs), or something more complicated .

Runtime Transparency?

Hello Engineers! 🧑

I was look at Types/Animation and Types/Sprite hoping to find a way to make existing Animations and Sprites transparent (or more transparent).

I noticed that both Animations and Sprites have:

blend_mode
premul_alpha


Given their similarities, I would ...
