Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.
But I feel this has high risk of infringing on the boundary between "the game gives you a sandbox to figure things out and come up with your own solutions" and "the game is telling you how to play".
This is exactly what I feel when playing not just in Gleba, but in Factorio 2.0. Most of the ...

Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.
Most people don't like Spoilage. Why?
Factorio is, most of the time, a zen game - unless you like to hardcore yourself in death worlds. With so many logical challenges, it is definitely not the kind of "rush against the clock" game.
Therefore I think the Spoilage mechanics introduce to much ...

Re: flip thruster horizontally
Thank you very much for the links.
The thruster is not challenging, it is simply a pain. Not funny at all.
The same "challenge" word was used in Factorio 1.* for Oil processing facilities, and guess what? Now they can be flipped in Factorio 2.0
So please don't use this as an excuse for not ...

Remaining distance to planet/etc
Please additionally provide the distance to the target planet as a signal from the Space hub.
By integrating the velocity over time, we get a considerable error, since velocity is rounded to integer.
Another solution would be to provide velocity in m/s for higher precision, but I still prefer to ...

Re: Improved Vehicle Control
There is a mod which perfectly solves this issue. It's called Vehicle Snap. Please integrate it into vanilla.

Re: Cable Resistance / Non-lossless Power Transmission
This is about energy loss over distance .
First: The point, why I underline "over distance" is, that it makes no sense to add just some power loss per power pole or add different power networks with different voltage and transformers between the networks (just two examples of many ideas). The ...

Disable damage alerts for specific spaceships/surfaces
Some spaceships get minor damage and that is totally acceptable. The ship is planned to repair such minimal damage.
The problem is, damage alerts get mixed with planet damage alerts from biters/etc, which are utterly important. No one has patience to constantly check the damage in this case, since ...

Re: Train to train loading --> bigger chests (1x2)
Many years later I still want this. Why can't we get a 1x2 chest in vanilla?
Even if it is just wood, iron and steel, no need for logistics ones.

Well, it would be really nice to have the mentioned chests in vanilla. That would allow very interesting constructs... even if it were just a 1x2 chest, I can just imagine how much I could do with it. 1x3, 1x4, 2x2, 2x3: that would be a dream realized.
