Part of me wonders if the logistic network browser won't be in the way sometimes, if it's forced to be visible on the remote view screen. Or perhaps you already did add a way to hide it. I like what you did with the belt graphics for the whole belt reader, as well as the change to the rocket silo an...

Calling it the 'RTS tool' is a bit absurd, but otherwise these are good changes. Great, even.

I love all these features. In particular being able to operate so much from the map feels really convenient and pleasant, especially when it makes sense that you should be able to!

I'm so glad you made these additions. So many game devs just wouldn't bother, yet these were some fairly substantial bumps that you just smoothed out.

The slot inside the reactor will, if hovered over, specify that it can only take "Uranium fuel cell", but this discrepancy is a little odd. What's extra weird is the capitalization (or lack of its consistency). I checked in another language, and the same issue is present. It's as if it's i...

Although being different in nature, I always very much enjoyed the beauty of the Alien Biomes mod, so I'm very happy that you got to work on improving the Nauvis terrain.

Amped and electrified for sure!

Developing it behind closed doors is and has been the completely correct solution, I think.

Great stuff. I hope that you can improve the existing train tutorials, because that will really be needed. Even with just the chain signals, the current tutorial feels a bit short. You could accidentally beat it, or beat it without really internalizing the meaning, and even right now it would need a...

The entity flipping and assembler circuitry are amazing. I think you demonstrate well just how worthwhile it is in the long run to focus on doing things properly.

Also, I think you've made the right decision with regards to the inserter naming.

The sole fact, that I saw speedrunners highly utilize mines for deathworld runs, has made me see how absurdly strong they are. I didn't even know they were this cheap! They're even amazing offensively! Heck, they're even amazing when placed in mass next to nests!

The only thing that confuses me at first glance is the "Value" and "Ingredient of" fields. It's not quite clear what they refer to, but I'm sure you could get used to it quickly.

Somewhat relevant, but the logistics chests research also requires no purple science while requiring yellow science, and it is also robotics related. That's why in my mind, yellow science is always related to robotics (even aside from the fact that it uses a robot frame in the recipe).

If you can detect when attacks are triggered (maybe like a wave as a whole, that shouldn't be very expensive), you could perhaps use that as a measurement of local pollution absorption, and thus local evolution.

I guess it makes sense. The difficulty, is that you would require almost RTS game controls in addition to having Factorio's game controls. Very difficult to create well, while giving a small return. Remember, the controls have to still remain intuitive and simple. I'm kind of OK with the current sta...

I do not think this is a good idea for balancing the "new players researching things faster than they can go through them" phenomenon. Also, don't punish players needlessly just because they can go fast. I would even argue, that reseraching too fast is also one of Factorio's logistical cha...

Truly superb! For a veteran player, the game really benefits so much from all of these improvements (new players will of course use them too).

As usual, the attention to detail is simply beautiful.

Since it looks like we're assuming that trains can have a reason to brake even when not at a station, we then need to assess the reason for why they brake. Almost always, that's going to be because of an intersection. Thus, the throughput is bounded by the throughput of the intersection, which in tu...

Are you not automating enough? I find there are many methods that greatly simplify expansion and rebuilding. Bots and trains are the primary ones, but even things like having separate smelting facilities is part of smoothing out the process (means you don't need to rebuild furnace lines just because...

Those foundry audiovisuals are just pure candy! The drill looks amazing too.

I keep saying it, there was never any real doubt, but every FFF just keeps showing how utterly impressive the expansion is.
