I couldn't agree more. Their attention to detail keeps impressing me over and over again.

Excellent!

I found that the distribution packet even contains a toggle for this: In config-path.cfg there is a setting

use-system-read-write-data-directories=false

... which, according to the comments, is set to TRUE in the installer and to FALSE in the ZIP version by default.

Beautiful; this is ...

Am I correct in assuming you're running Windows?

Yes, that's right.

Honestly, I don't even know if anything else has changed - over my 120 hours of digging Navius 2.0 I didn't noticed any other changes as dramatic.
What specifically you would like to revert?
It's just - all wrong: The color is too orange (yes, even with working the "saturation" slider in graphic ...

I have a problem:

I did the upgrade to v2 when offered in-game. But the new version doesn't really work for me: I don't like the new graphics, some of my mods don't work as I'm used to, and some of the modified UI logic is just not for me.

This is not a criticism, it's just me not being that fond ...

Excellent. Thanks for the info.

Hi,

I'm a long time Factorio player and intend to buy the new expansion as soon as it is available. Will the key be offered directly on the website again as it is with the v1 key? I don't use Steam.

edit:

Yeehaa, I think I've got it. I read your earlier comments again really carefully, then came up with this:


... an additional pump after joining two feed lines. And this seems to work as intended!


Thanks for the tips!

I just can't figure this out.

I need four pipelines supplying 1237/s each.
An offshore pump supplies 1200/s, so I need five pumps for the four lines.

This is what I tried:

factorio_pipe_5to4.jpg


1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are pipes from the offshore pumps.
A, B, C, D lead off to consumers.

The five ...

Example:

Look at the two pumps at the top. They are supposed to fill the tank array beneath them. (Please ignore the rest.)

The tank contents (top row) are from left to right:
21k - 20k - 20k - 21k - 20k

The pipeline (coming down from above) leading to the left pump is "95 of 100" full (looking ...

So how do you build a "tank farm" to store large amounts of liquids? If I connect e.g. 9 tanks together, they never "even out" between them, regardless how long I wait: The tank furthest from the feed line may be empty, even though the "first" tank in line may be half full.

I've tried to help even ...

Hi,

even after 250+ hours in the game I still don't understand the fluid system.


This works as I would expect:

tank -> pump -> pipes -> pump -> tank


But what about this:

tank -> pump -> pipes -> pump -> two-tanks

Here, the two tanks never fill completly. The line will just stop pumping as ...

Found it! It's called "confirm", standard key is "E".

... much better, thanks!

Are you sure?

I can find "open character screen" in this dialog, but not "close character screen".

Hello,

in v1.0.0 the player's inventory was opened with the TAB key and it closed when TAB was pressed again.

In v1.1.19 this doesn't work any more: The menu opens with TAB, but it only closes with ESC, not with TAB.

Can this be reset so that it works as before?

REgards

Thanks!

Hi,

somhow a "deconstruction planner" icon appeared in my player inventory. I can even push it to a storage box, but I can't remove it completly.

What exactly is this icon, how did it get created and how can I get rid of it?

Regards

I see; thanks for the pointers. I should have known that with Factorio there is no such thing as "just take the next one", but that there is a full-fledged algorithm behind it. Of course there is! :-)

Though in practice, I find it difficult to handle. For example, you can't just put one item into ...

How so?

For filtered storage chests I can only filter what item _can_ be stored in it. This doesn't prevent the item from being stored in another storage chest that has no filter.

Buffer chests would activly draw their item from any other storage chest on the map. This would mean the material ...

Hi,

is there a way to control where logistic robots put material in storage?

I have a train station where material is unloaded into active provider chests. Right next to them are a number of storage chests and close by a number of requester chests.

My intention is to have the active provider ...
