I was inspired by what Niftmaniac did, but did not aspire to quite the same level of automation :) I created my own glider that will continually expand the solar farms for me so I don't have to spend time going there. https://youtu.be/Wd1vkSB55tI In my playthroughs I am spending too much time on sol...

I am ambivalent about the new graphics. One the one hand they look awesome in their worn down, dirty look, but on the other hand I would love to evolve from that stage to the Angels Mod type graphics where it is nice shining industry. I completely applaud that this is the feel of Factorio, but I wou...

Every time I launch a rocket with an Ion Cannon I get the annoying pop-up warning "launched a rocket without a satellite <TAB>".
Is that a known issue or could it perhaps be a conflict with another mod? I am launching automatically with the "Score Extended" mod.

Pretty cool that you did that without robots. I am myself going robot-free in my current campaign. I can highly recommend giving the mod Logistic Train Network a try. This adds a pretty cool new way of using Trains and since you seem like a train nerd then perhaps you will like it :) I find the toug...

I don't see any obvious errors in the screenshots. Set log level to 4 "/c remote.call('LTN', 'log_level', 4)", let it run for a bit, don't mind the message spam, and send me factorio-current.log from factorio root directory. At least it is nothing obvious then :) I have found another solu...

My plan is to have them as a "native" in the logistics mod, but with the restriction that you need a certain component to build them, which can only be obtained (for now at least) by hunting and gathering resources from crystal rocks, the other restriction then is that you will get 1 (one...

I am in the process of converting my entire base to Logistic Train Network (50+ trains with many stops) and I encountered what looks like an error. I'd like to hear if this is intended, you know of it or maybe it is me being blind. I have Coal outposts serviced by 2+4 trains bringing it back to the ...

Good job figuring it out from that screenshot. The memory cell is a variant of XKnight's design. A tutorial would make it seem less like dark combinator magic. :lol: I couldn't help myself, so I created a tutorial for the basic setup of the LTN mod. Considering I spent the better part of an evening...

The most basic form of this only uses 3 combinators. Thank you for the very fast answer. I think an answer in German would make it just a tad too difficult for me to decipher :) I've now spent hours looking at your screenshot, opening the demo save, loading a test map, changing wires and conditions...

Absolutely brilliant mod. I've been running trains all over my base instead of using robots and I never even knew about this mod. Most of my stations serve multiple items as they are created together. My issue is when the train arrives it will pick up everything instead of just the material requeste...

Hi Angel As you know I have been messing about with the new Logistics mod... Yesterday as I shut down my PC and was about to go to bed I remembered that the Logistics mod page contains Loaders (https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=185&t=40654), but they are no-where to be found in the gam...

I am myself struggling a bit with the proper rail setups, so it is nice to be inspired. I like the idea of aligning it to chunks. The loops at the end of each can generate detours as I see it: When a train is done loading at an outpost it has 2 options for returning; Taking the returning track or co...

Thank you for the confirmation. I didn't think it would be a problem since it is basically the same music, just in a more controlled manner, but safer to ask first

Hi Developers I am creating some Factorio YouTube lets play videos and even after 800 hours of the game I have not grown tired of the background music :) However since the music is not constant I bought the soundtrack and I would like to run that as background music instead of the ingame music (as i...

I think you have a point... Though maybe not "more" vs. "less", but just a logical flow from steampunky when dealing with steam, boilers etc and a gradual transition to more high tech and "clean" towards the end game. Some of the big mods like Angel, Bob and Yuoki have ...

I have a bit mixed feeling about the nuclear technology they are creating; I love the 3x2 boiler and the concept of nuclear power, but it seems a bit too simple now that it is simply an extra step between the boiler and the steam engine. They should take a look at the brilliant Uranium Power mod by ...
