I thought these 2 icons were made different size to help people to see the difference. I doubt any graphic designer in their right mind would purposefully slightly reduce the size of something to convey a difference, especially since the capsule's color is already enough to differentiate it from th...

personally i was ok with the couple of wheels as an "engine unit". What had always bothered me is how you need a combustion engine to make an electric engine, but whatever, i don't mind that much. What i do mind is how slowdown capsules are smaller than poison capsules......... but apparen...

i'd just like to say that i think the oil changes are really nice. i'm looking forward to try them out in experimental! while i'm at it, in last week's thread somebody proposed to have two kinds flamethrower ammo: one that acts like a tank's flamethrower, and another that acts like current handeld f...

Hello! I'm pretty sure this wasn't possible in 0.16



Here's how to do it



Is this intended? Been working in older .17 versions as well.

hi, found a way to make this reproducible in 1.17.3!

i was in the server aldldl was trying to join into, so I quit and tried rejoining for science. What happened the first time is this: I got past the "loading map" process and started catching up; then at about 75% the game just crashed with this log https://pastebin.com/KeYisqJ3 Afterwards ...

looks interesting. cant wait to check it out and see how you did it!

oh my god those gui elements look sexy af :Q

^these two posts above are awesome, and so is proposal 0 by itself.

i only started playing in 0.16. Is there a reason for the apparent indifference regarding list-view proposals?

PS: shared library was pretty cool, i'm not sure how i feel about its planned removal.

First of all, changes described in fff #191 would be amazing. i would love to see those. that said, i... kind of don't like any of the proposals in fff #249. :( I like having blueprints as items, especially in multiplayer. (Also i don't like the idea of having a specialized hotbar mostly because i d...

Hi. One day a thought crossed my mind: "wouldn't it be cool if i could stack trains with different lengths in a single stacker?" I looked on factorioprints... and then the forums... but I wasn't able to find anything about this. :o I wanted a stacker with these characteristics: - it must b...

First of all, thanks for all the replies. The OP of that suggestion thread only talked about blocking certain routes completely, instead of increasing the pathfinder penalty. However, later in that thread, I suggested that it should also be possible to increase the pathfinder penalty. Nice! I'm glad...

Hi! Sorry if i bring up a thread from last year, but it's asking exactly what i wanted. Better than another thread, right? I too think that this feature would allow for much better train control with circuits. I am working on a circuit controlled stacker that can queue two trains behind each other o...

Holy shit it works!!!! function attractEnemies(unit, range) for _, enemy in pairs(unit.surface.find_enemy_units(unit.position, range)) do enemy.set_command({type=defines.command.attack, target=unit.character}) end end script.on_event("horn", function(event) local player = game.players[even...

Thanks for the tips guys! After sifting the forums and various resources here is what i came up with: function attractEnemies() for _, enemy in pairs(game.player.surface.find_enemy_units(game.player.position, 50)) do enemy.set_command({type=defines.command.attack, target=game.player.character}) end ...

Hello. o/ I have assembled a mod that makes cars honk by pressing a button . Right now the honks have no effect on the world other than playing a sound that can be heard by players. I am trying to add a function to it though: enemies in range of honking would stop what they are doing and start attac...

. Description This mod adds horns to cars and tanks. Pictures don't help much in this case, so here is a short video showcasing the mod's features . Both vehicles have their own set of two sounds, a shorter one and a longer one, which can be bound to different keys. ("H" and "SHIFT+H...
