With that, I could easily duplicate every ore infinitely and deep core mining ore mining, in general, would be completely pointless in my opinion. So is that intended like that? What is and does Astroid Mining? It allows to send the rockets in the endgame into space and they will return like astero...

Looks like there's a report about it in the mods discussion page already: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/grey-goo/ ... 673414809a

Looks like they're resetting the entire force for some reason, when from the function name all they wanted to do was reset the map.

The railgun does not exist any more.

Pretty sure they're referring to the fact that the icon for military 1-4 technologies include the rail gun among the other weapons they show - middle of the left side.

Would be nice to have this info somewhere. As is, I end up using the prototypes explorer to look up stack sizes for things.

Pipes are very expensive CPU-wise. Megafactory builds often try to avoid nuclear power because of the CPU burden of the fluid simulation that it adds. This is because a fairly complicated calculation needs to be performed on each pipe, whereas many other things can be optimized with timers and such...

Hello. Nowhere did I see how this is going get tackled but we all were once promised UPS/FPS friendly Liquid Mechanics rework. So what happened? Fluid UPS optimisations (multithreading) have been in the game since 0.17: https://factorio.com/blog/post/017-stable https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-27...

Honestly i dont like the idea about removing evolution cap. Factorio is not a war game (for me). I prefer QoL, not "research me or lose". I'm pretty sure you can get all achievements with peaceful mode on, except trigger attack of course. Why invest so much engineering effort in a feature...

I ALWAYS forget that LUA arrays are 1 indexed. If you're looking at it's icon in the crafting menu, I believe that's taken from the item form of the lamp - data.raw.items["small-lamp"]. So you'd need data.raw.items["small-lamp"].icon = iconpath.."small-lamp.png" IN ADDI...

lamp.picture_on.layers[0].filename = entitypath.."lamp-light.png" lamp.picture_on.layers[0].hr_version.filename = entitypath.."hr-lamp-light.png" The picture_on property of lamps doesn't have a layers property that I can see in data.raw, as it uses a single set of definitions. T...

Been posted before, just a few posts down. Try the fix posted in viewtopic.php?p=527266#p527266

That should reset the script files in the save to the current versions and resolve the issue.

Did you try: https://forums.factorio.com/92500 ? Our server does not show this error The files included in that fix are what controls the end game victory screen. If it's messed up for some reason it could cause the issue you're seeing. Performing the steps in that thread can sometimes force the ga...

After a recent autosave crash I got these errors on startup, not sure if it's related "Failed to load the player data file. Campaign progress might be lost." "Failed to load local achievement data. Local achievements might be lost." I've disabled autosave for now. Hopefully that...

What When using the drag placing functionality of power poles, and starting by clicking on an existing pole that is out of range, a pole is immediately placed once the cursor enters player building range, instead of following the 'normal' rules of waiting for max connection distance or leaving no u...

Already been suggested in many other threads, like viewtopic.php?f=66&t=53696

Note that you can already quickly match your mod list and settings to a saved game by using the 'Sync mods with save' button in the top right of the Load Game window.

Has zstd (trained) been considered for compression? It offers pretty big gains for the types of data factorio saves consist of. It came up in the reddit thread for that update: Compressor improvements. Specifically; compressing on multiple threads. And I thought about other compressors briefly but ...

Vehicle power. We have braking force research on trains. Why not more vroom? After ludicrous research, a train can simply burn an entire stack of rocket fuel in the first tick after leaving the station and then brake the entire way to the next stop at near light speed. This kills the engineer. It'd...

Mods that only replace graphic files like the reddit poster did wouldn't break determinism. If they did, the edits they made wouldn't allow them to play MP games - they'd have desynced. Whether or not you could change the actual prototype animation properties without issue I don't know - depends on ...

Improved save-game speed by up to 2x depending on the save file size. Not gonna lie, I would LOVE to see a writeup on how you managed this. (and the current roadmap/status in general. Been missing the FFF more than I thought I would.) Comment on the update post on the subreddit said it was multithr...
