Will there be ability to mute game sounds once the window loses focus? It would be really useful.

It's always great that you are adding more and more high-res graphics for game entities.
But it would be also great to fix this bug which makes all new graphics looks fuzzy in map view while zooming.

Hi guys, any update?

This is a perfect example of game glitch to fix before 1.0 version release.
Honestly, I don't understand why there is this zooming behavior difference between map and game view in the first place.

Hi folks, in FFF-204 you mentioned that you changed the zoom increments so they perfectly shows 1.0 and 2.0 graphics: Related to HR entities, It turned out that our zooming system never showed an exact zoom of 2.0, which would be the 'pixel perfect' zoom level for the HR entities. By changing the zo...

I also noticed that there is missing the description of mysterious "+/-" button marked as (9) in the Logistics tab image.

Nobody's curious about this button?

I also noticed that there is missing the description of mysterious "+/-" button marked as (9) in the Logistics tab image.

Finally there's a "Close" button in the top corner of window. Now I only wish if all the windows could get it.

I also encountered this problem even in very first 0.17 public version.
I've temporarily remapped this to control + scroll up/down and I am hoping it will get fixed sometimes soon since there was no problem with this on 0.16.

It was still with High sprite resolution, but compression was set to Low quality. We seem to be memory bandwith limited on Intel iGPUs so I think 8bpp compression is more appropriate then 12bpp for them. Furthermore, usually if someone runs the game on Intel HD, they are probably playing on laptop ...

Thanks for calming my mind guys.
So hopefully the performance will get only better with 0.17.

Maybe one thing that confused me was the need to run the benchmarks with Low texture settings on Intel HD card since I have no problem to run it on High with 0.16.

In general I am really looking forward for 0.17. My only concern is that if due to this rendering system overhaul I will still be able to run Factorio on High textures at 60 FPS on my MBP with integrated Intel Iris Plus graphics like I am now with 0.16. Hopefully the game won't get optimizations onl...

These MODS adds pretty complex mechanisms to the game.

My proposal is much humbler and simpler. Just adding an icon for depleted resource for drill in the same manner as there already is icon for drill without power.

Nothing more, nothing less.

I am bumping this up, since this is the ideal improvement of quality of life which if got to 0.17 it would result to unparalleled increase of user gameplay experience.
I believe that adding a single icon to depleted mines should not be so much difficult to do.

Fingers crossed, please devs.

sadly, I have to play this on a mac for now. unfortunately, the game does not work on MacOS Mojave. It doesnt bother me too much since I will be back on my windows machine very soon, but there are probably others that need it ported.

Weird, no problem at all with 0.16.51 on my Mojave (10.14.1).

Thanks guys for addition to this. The other topic I overlooked.

Personally, I would't require the automatic deconstruction of such drill.
For me just the icon would be enough (if there is icon for not powered drill why not for depleted one?).

TL;DR I would like to suggest an addition of warning icons (badges) for drills which has depleted their mineable resources. What ? Here is an illustration of the situation: https://i.imgur.com/ZzBf5Mf.png As you can see, it is very hard to tell which drills no longer have resources to mine (and the...

I must admit: most of the time I play the game without sound, just music from somewhere else. Way back in the beginning it was handy, but since you can auto-repair everything with bots and alerts are easily shown when clicking on them I don't use the audio as a tactical addition as I used to in oth...

I am not sure if it wasn't answered already somewhere, but do you plan to add any close buttons to window gui (in window title, maybe?) so they could be closed by mouse instead of current state which requires keyboad?

I am bumping this up, because it imo should not be too much difficult to develop and it would definitely increase factorio's gameplay experience.
Or at least to have keyboard shortcut would be enough for start. Please, devs, please.

Now I only need to know where to get the Factorio hoodie Klonan is wearing on one of the photos.
