TL;DR
It would be nice to be able to limit the "Read contents" on the various crafting machines to exclude products and only look at input materials.

What?
Currently when using the "Read contents" on a crafter, it reads the input, output and (optionally) the in-craft materials. For most recipes ...

Had another crash today, this time while alt-tabbed, so I don't know what was going on while it crashed (but I'm pretty sure I wasn't looking at a blueprint this time). Relevant part of the log:

22176.745 Error CrashHandler.cpp:641: Received SIGSEGV
Factorio crashed. Generating symbolized ...

Game crashed, and at the time I was working on creating a new blueprint. I'd selected contents for the blueprint, and was modifying some of the stuff in it, but I hadn't 'saved' the blueprint yet. It could be totally unrelated to the crash though, as I loaded the last autosave and redid the ...

Did cca 45 in-game hours of playtime and no rail gun on rail gun action happened. One collector got destroyed by explosive rocket though.

Interesting; how were you able to tell what actually killed it? I'll admit I'm not sure it was a railgun, I just assumed it was because the asteroids don't ...

Yes, the same save I uploaded earlier. That said, I saved before telling the ship to leave, and it doesn't happen every time the ship makes a trip.

So if it would help, I can make a save after the ship has left and see if it reliably shoots itself at some point. If so, I can then make another save ...

Any update on this? It's still an issue on 2.0.47:

Oops, I forgot to upload the save file a while ago. Well, better late than never: link .

Note that this is saved without the performance enhancing mods enabled, the most important of which is "Remove Asteroid Particles". I also have used "FPS Friendly Thrusters" and "Remove Weapon Particles" but ...

I will upload a save when I get back home. There are two things that make reproducing this very annoying, however.

First is that this seems to occur very rarely. When I tested a trip all the way to the shattered planet, which takes my platform around 2.1 hours, it only happened once. As for what ...

I'm still seeing issues with this even on 2.0.39. I'm trying to get a recording of it happening, but it occurs rarely (and I'm not even sure exactly where on my platform it's happening), so it may take a bit.

Definitely. Is there a mod that makes use of the API to do it yet? If not I'm thinking of making one...

• Added drag-to-reorder to pins.

Excellent news, been needing this desperately.

Now if only we could get it for train and space platform schedules.

They don't just hit other railguns that claim to be outside their range, they also hit collectors that claim to be outside of their range. For example, here is my railgun's alleged range, showing the collector outside of it:

And here it is killing the collector it supposedly can't hit ...

I'm posting this here as I'm not sure if this is considered a bug or not. I know non-deterministic behavior in multiplayer can cause desyncs though, which are an issue, so I figured it is worth mentioning even though I'm playing single player.

Anyway, the situation is that I've got a platform ...

Thank you! Just the "Remove Asteroid Particles" alone more than doubled my FPS.

On the shattered planet route, my FPS is dropping considerably when I look at the front of my ship and all the asteroids it's destroying. Sometimes it is so bad that I drop below 20 FPS, and that is despite the UPS remaining high (above 50). So, what options are there to improve FPS when you have a ...

I want to give this a +1, because different researches have vastly different research speeds. I'm looking at you, "Research productivity!"

When I constantly switch between it and some other research (currently doing this manually, obviously, but that's why I want this to be implemented) I am fine ...

After doing tests of this in game, I've discovered that the table in the "tips and tricks" is inaccurate, so I'll file a bug report about it (if I can't find one that was already filed).

From experience I would say the only scalable way to handle Fulgora is to make a mini factory that can produce everything you'd want. Basically this boils down to the buildings you have to build there (recycler, EMPs), a few intermediate products (holmium plate, superconductors, etc.), and stuff to ...

I haven't done any experimental tests, though I'm thinking at this point it may be the only way to actually answer this question.

I'm trying to answer what seems like it should be a simple question:
When crafting using 4 legendary quality module 3s (and no speed module influence, i.e. +24.8% quality) and a normal quality recipe, what percentage of the output will be normal quality items?
Based on what the "Tips and Tricks ...
