Fantastic I see it's back! Thank you guys a million and some more...

Hey a dev is with me on this one. Please guys lets fix it? Even openttd forums allows one to view the active topics without logging in after all these years...

Please bring back the feature to show the active topics without logging in. Ever since you guys changed the forums some months ago its been like this. I can't believe no one asked for this before. I hate having to log in every time just to browse the active topics. Usually I browse the active topics...

In a previous version of the game it would just give back everything it had consumed when the recipe started. However, because of a possible incredibly tiny exploit related to productivity modules and being able to get an extra % of items back if you time it correctly this was removed (bug report)....

Why does my replies to private messages just hang in my outbox and not go out to the recipient? I'm talking about the forum messaging here. Please help?

Hi All Disclaimer: I've cheated. Ever since I've reached the map limit and my computer's limit in Transport Tycoon I've wanted to build something like this. The problem was with previous versions of Factorio I reached unbearable UPS limits quite quickly, but the general gist of things was always to ...

I always run out of green circuits so I stitched a few blueprints together in a hope that the problem will now be sorted out forever. It eats L-L-L-Cx8 trains full of copper ore and iron plates to produce green circuits at about 65k per minute. It eats 9 trains of ore and 3 of iron plates. 65kpm.png...

Before the new oil recipe changes drop, behold the marvel: 73 science per minute complete spaghetti noodle in a box that makes every item (except uranium cannon shells and low level armors) in the game with the use of belts. It even makes rocket silos, and the power armor assembler can be manually s...

So I guess the proposed changes to oil for Monday was a bit too controversial then? I'm glad though, it's such a mission to reconfigure my mall every time a recipe changes. If and when you do change oil making blue science heavy oil centric seemed like the best proposal lodged.

Yeah this is a good idea. It works like that with rails now I see. Really awesome. Placing lights over deconstructed lights is still a nightmare sometimes and paving tiles is just a nightmare.

The new lazer beams do look awesome! While a release is pending for Monday, how about looking at a few quick changes? I came across the following issues since playing a lot again lately: - Can we PLEASE get a shortcut key to toggle manual/automatic for a train when sitting in a train, I propose the ...

Updated Blueprint Book:

Updated from 0.17.54 to 0.17.58 using automatic updater and game crashed upon restart.
Game started upon retry so all good otherwise. Hopefully...

So...I've done it again. The Lazy Bastard Mega Mall just got updated to v0.17 and now it is a virtually complete base in a box. It handles all sciences at roughly 53 packs per minute and makes almost all items in-game without the use of bots. The nuclear power setup provide 478 MW which is about 100...

^^^ Thatss actually a very good point hey. We all just assume the current character to be a male. Maybe its an advanced futuristic non-binary triple digit asexual android clone.

Yeah, having a female Factorio dudette is a good idea. Also Popular Mechanics. I know their magazines are in America and they also have a publication in southern Africa. You will surely reach a few people who haven't heard of the game but have the mindset for this game through Popular Mechanics. May...

Regarding the marketing: Its really refreshing to see people with integrity and values still in this day and age. I would suggest sending a final copy over to PC Gamer and other gaming magazines/sites for them to review. For many years this was the way I found new awesome games. Also have someone ma...

It happens on my PC too with the Radeon R9290...

Just know that resources don't show on previews, which is something the devs really should support given its common use. Thats weird because every time for me the preview ore location and type matched with what I got in game. In 17.11 at least... Also I was hoping that we can get ore frequency chan...
