This is probably minor. An entity that is input-starved normally has the field of its lacking input shaded in red: 11-18-2024, 20-49-38.png But the rocket silo does not, at least when it's in "Launching rocket" state: 11-18-2024, 20-48-59.png It won't continue production (obviously), but i...

Yes of course, I can also do a fairly large base with 0 calcite per minute if I just use smelting. My point is not that it is impossible or even too challenging. I'm just saying that the added complexity discourages this base layout (because you can perfectly produce plates and steel without melting...

yep, I also thought of that. Some guy on reddit noticed that asteroid yield from space platforms does not increase much with size (don't have the link right now), so many Platforms is a solution. But I don't think it's a good one, more a workaround. My point is not that it's impossible to ramp up la...

Hey there, Having started with SA, I really love the new molten copper/iron recipes. They are neat and give the factory a more industrial look. Also, they provide more freedom, because one can decide to build a factory using molten metals, or the coventional way. On a side note, the recipes are prob...

Hi there,

picture explains it best: When the description is short, the [Entity...] string may flow over the boundary of the popup.

Cheers

I second that this is absurdly weird behavior, it is inconsistent and annoying. I really don't see how this is "not a bug".

Hey there, I'm hyped for Space Age, buuuut: 10-21-2024, 17-59-00.png This error happens directly after migration from latest 1.1.x, when either loading an existing save, or trying to create a new game. I'll investigate whether I can fix it, e.g. by purging the AppData folder, and keep you updated. B...

I second this. Especially when you work with blueprints quite a bit, you want them to be readily available. If this means that you have to have them as seperate items in your inventory - what's the point of the Blueprint book them? The inventory will just be a mess. I would strongly support leaving ...

Thanks for the feedback. I will go and poke it with a stick.
Anyway, this update probably will create a huge mess in my base because of the new fluid system so I might opt out anyway :/

This beta for me is not available on Steam. Even though "Latest 0.18 Experimental" is selected, it only offers 0.18.31. Do I need to update manually?

Hi, thanks for your reply, it's the regular German keyboard. I removed the Discord overlay and it does not happen since then (hence the suggestion that this is the reason). Anyway, I don't think this is the way the overlay should work in the first place, but I don't know whether it's a problem of Fa...

Hi there, as in the Subject. Once I type an Umlaut in the input box (see attached image), It is no longer possible to type or click anything, while the game continues to run normally. This can only be solved by killing the factorio.exe via task manager, and starting again. I'm on Win7 (see attached ...

0.12, that was before my time
Thanks for searching in the archives.

Hi, If your character moves very fast, walls are no longer an obstacle. A player can easily run through a wall as if it was not there. This can happen if you mod character-running-speed or use a fat lot of exoskeletons. I am, however, unsure if the vanilla power armor size allows enough exoskeletons...

Thanks for the report, do you have reliable way to reproduce this? Or could you share you save file? Hi Boskid, congratulations on your promotion :) Oyxd wrote further down that it is fixed, do you still need anything? Thanks, fixed in 0.17.72. Thank you! May I ask what was causing this? -th0

Title says it all, I was in world view and zooming out on a rather large (10k SPM) freeplay. Please find the log attached 0.002 2019-10-17 19:30:35; Factorio 0.17.71 (build 47452, win64, steam) 0.002 Operating system: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 0.003 Program arguments: "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\...

i opened up the game to check on something, low and behold, an update prompt was starring back at me. the angelic choir proceeded to sing the praises of the first stable .17 !!! only issue that i have found, which i will post in the bug report, is that from updating to the .69 version from the .64 ...

Hi, when using the Blueprint tool, normally all entities (whether they are built or ghosts) that will be in the blueprint are highlighted with four green corners. This is also the case for landfill, but only if the player is selecting *either* ghosts *or* built landfill. If he selects both, it looks...

Hi, when you place a blueprint over trees or rocks, the default behavior is that you cannot do that because "(whatever entity) is in the way". You can override this by Shift+Left click, in which case the trees (or rocks) will get marked for deconstruction. If you Ctrl+Z the construction of...

[...] You mentioned specifically adding a modded signal with a different penalty. What is the use case behind your need for multiple signals with different weights, over what the existing mods (eg: Picker Vehicles) can do by changing the weight of signals globally? I was unaware that this setting c...
