(emphasis mine)

Is that some technical, developer jargon?

At least that's my assumption. I'm trying to look for mods this morning and the game kept freezing when I'd load the mod portal. I'd have to force quit the game. I went to manually install the mods at mods.factorio.com and I can't get the page to load. It's just a dark gray background and a spinning...

Could you please update for 0.13? This is the best.

Same with Chrome.

Cross posted this in the " Splitter not working " thread, but it's more about showing off, so it goes here. I'm not a fan of the passive sorter setups that need priming. I'm too worried that they'll prime wrong and I'll get weird results, so I went with the alternate design: forcing the sp...

And animated!

Lots of walls.

Side is not important (i tested it). Important is to place control item before second splitter to switch output for that item. I explained hot it works here https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6008&start=300#p135617 P.S. In v0.13 it won't work anymore because of changes in split...

I can't find any confirmation that they got changed for 0.13? Someone mentioned that they had changed it, but I can't find hard evidence. This FFF says the devs MIGHT change it, but I can't find anything confirming it. https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-122 we are considering changing the way sp...

I run large poles along my main bus and branch off smaller lines, just like materials.

I think I am going crazy, but I think it's generating the modules. I have assembler 3's set to recieve 3xEfficiency level 2's and 1x speed level 2. I don't have any speed 2's on me. It inserts them anyway. I can do this repeatedly. I checked several times. Here's a video: http://sendvid.com/3h8lelq...

This is why roundabouts are bad practise. I will get flamed for saying this; which is fine. My suggestion is to use T-Junctions instead; you can still use a loop based system but just stay away from roundabouts. My second suggestion is to remove the lane switchers - they are often not needed and ar...

Am I just channeling my 12 year old self or did anyone else misread NAT punching as something more anatomically painful?

It's a wiki. You can edit it and change it. Click the edit link.

Who knows? ;) I mean not, cause the story of Factorio is fixed to a man. But such things can change. Actually having a female character too would open to the possibility of additional character creation process. Once we figure out the right male female ratio we could build an efficient production l...

More in general you can find things like this in other games but i like most pollution, automation and best thing is community Pollution. I've never run across it as a balancing element like this. I love it. The only other place I've seen something like this was in Sid Meier's Colonization where yo...

Thank you so much for this. I like biters, I hate grinding them. It's so freaking tedious.

Really all purple science needs is some high tier consumable to work out okay. It could be processing units, or maybe even rocket components. Having only one single item for purple science might be easy, but factorio is about building stuff! A hard recipe that takes everything you learned in the ga...
