Re: FPS/UPS drop to <20

Hmm... so getting rid of these 0.2 millisecond things hardly matters compared to the massive 49 millisecond frame cycle. Good to know. I won't get rid of the mods, then. But dang... I have to get 49 ms down to 16 ms? I don't see how that's possible. Will version 0.15 be optimized to that extent? Or ...

Re: FPS/UPS drop to <20

Also, I'm baffled if my CPU really is the bottleneck here. My CPU is way more than is necessary for any other game. After buying it, I even regretted wasting money on a CPU that wasn't really going to see as much use as it was capable of. Does everyone get extremely slow late game? If not, I wish I ...

Re: FPS/UPS drop to <20

Here's a screenshot with the font size reduced. I wasn't sure what made a mod problematic, so I assumed that the higher the number next to it, the more CPU time it was taking up. Is this correct? I removed several mods that had a number higher than .2. The performance didn't improve, but they're no ...

Re: FPS/UPS drop to <20

Ok. Thanks for the quick response. I wish there was something I could do about it besides wait for 0.15. I don't understand the information in the diagnostic screenshot. What should I be looking for to determine which mods are problematic? Are there any mods I'm using that are likely to be using up ...

FPS/UPS drop to <20

My game is running at 1/3 speed for no good reason. My cpu is at <20% usage. My base is getting larger, and there are tons of large alien bases, but it still makes no sense for the game to slow down, since my cpu isn't being used up. And frankly, my base isn't THAT big. I've basically mastered a lar...

Modding Utilities/Software/Tools

I've tried searching the forums, but searching for any words that make sense bring up tons of unrelated threads. My sincere apologies if this has been suggested before. After attempting to go through the outdated mod creation tutorial (linked on the front page of the modding portal), I realize how m...

Re: Tool belt improvements

Good call. As it stands, this feature merely limits what you can put into spaces... which doesn't make any sense.

Re: [MOD 0.14.x] Flare

Actually, on second glance, you don't need to do any research to unlock green chips. Still, I like science things, and it would be cool if there was at least a cheap science for researching flares. :P

Re: [MOD 0.14.x] Flare

I'm not sure if I've done something wrong, but I just installed this mod, and it enables flare production from the very beginning (even though it requires a green circuit to produce.

It would be much better if flares didn't show up as craftable until you've done some sort of research.

Re: [MOD 0.13.x]Cook mod 0.13.1

This mod looks like it was a lot of work, and adds a very cool aspect to Factorio. Will you be updating it? Would you be willing to let someone else take over? I'm not offering, as I know nothing about modding Factorio, but it just seems like a shame to let such a cool looking mod go to waste.
