Re: [MOD 0.13.8+|0.14.x]Helmod: Assistant to plan its base.

Thank you so much for clarifying! My assumption was it would automatically take surplus into account. Of course I can do that by myself.

Sir, your mod is truly awesome!

Re: [MOD 0.13.8+|0.14.x]Helmod: Assistant to plan its base.

As I stated earlier, your mod is awesome! After excessively using the mod to plan, I encountered a behavior I can't approve and would kindly ask you to fix. Please refer to the picture below for annotations in brackets. The calculation of the oil stuff doesn't take in account the surplus of it's int...

Holy Sh***, Sir your mod is severely under-rated!! It's purely awesome!! Thank you very much for integrating all my printed excel tables and my calc into the actual game.

Re: Friday Facts #141 - Mod Portal

Still can't wait for 0.13, even if the locomotive may look not as good as the old one. I'm with you there! The old sprite was frighteningly massive and had an indestructible look on it. The new one almost looks fragile with all the pipes and valves uncovered on the outside. Imagine a biter pulls of...

Re: Friday Facts #134 - Signal placement indicator

Welcome Mishka, I hope you are well! Many wishes for your new Job! There is (again) much controversy going on about a feature that is going to be implemented in a future update; the paternalism of the new rail system. When I think back about two and a half years when I was about to figure out the ra...

Re: Friday Facts #129 - The late game

Who the heck plays Factorio just to complete the research tree? In fact, many people consider their game finished, once they got all the research done. The rocket may be sent X times to wherever but it's not satisfying. Having the tech tree completed however is very very satisfying. It's the look o...

Re: Friday Facts #123 - Better circuit network (Part 2)

At first it sounds like a bad idea, now you need extra space to connect something to the circuit network? This sucks! Yea, this definitely sucks! The simple argument 'you're base building til' now was so bad, you should have figured out a new layout by now anyway. Now you have the opportunity to do...

Re: [0.12.x] Cursed RC - v0.0.1

--Off-topic-- Dear L0771, I spent the last hour searching the forum for a 0.12.x verison of your main mod 'Cursed Exp' but didn't find it. I came to the conclusion there is no Cursed Exp for 0.12. Although I'm pretty sure somebody must have asked the same questen I'm going to ask, I didn't find it e...

Re: Version 0.12.0

I'd like to share my train of thought here with you: Three weeks ago, an update for another favourite game of mine was released. Similar to the Factorio release, it was a mayor step forward. As of v. x.x.0 there were two gamebreaking bugs and some of the inconvenience ones in the first release of th...

Re: My Train Junction Layout needs some tuning!?

Thanks for your clarification, sslik! Most of your hints I discovered by myself playing around with trains, but the 3-way approach is realy interesing. Considering the junction beeing used just 1/4 less this makes a huge difference in the speed trains are able to use the junction. I tested this in m...

Re: Oil 10 % in source

Bear in mind, the more speed modules you add the more polution is produced. If you apply the beaconeffect to a few pumpjacks at the same time, check your map for increased poultion. It may add up quite quickly... (Talking from experience ;-) )

Re: My Train Junction Layout needs some tuning!?

In other words: Avoid setting any signals, where the distance between two signals is shorter than a train or can be blocked in a way, that another train must stop, because the first train is in the way, but that stop will also block the first. Uhm. :) This was my concern in the first place. I imple...

My Train Junction Layout needs some tuning!?

Hello dear reader! Since the trains got smarter somewhere around .11.13 I tried to implement a lot of train networking in my worlds and even dedicated a whole map to see whats possible with trains. I'm always runing in a simple but crucial occurence: Junctions! I figured that one-way-rails are more ...

Re: [MOD 0.11.15] Cartmen's Complete Overhaul [ALPHA v0.2.0]

I'ts getting quiet around here. Are you on duty Mr. Cartmen?

After a few re-plays of factorio (v. 11.14) with your mod (as it is in update 0.2.0) I think it runs pretty smooth. Besides some minor balance issues and the Graphics up until now it's realy fun to play. I like this mod more than ever. :)

Why was this changed? Requesting ADvanced processors is now a PITA because one chest immediatly requests 200 and voila a lot of resources are used but I only wanted 1 xD for example.
