Is the assembler's dump inventory limited? I mean slotwise and amountwise. Can you in theory store all crafted items from many different recipes in there as you wouldn't be emptying the dump? If it is limited, does the overflow just chestplode?

The green belts got me thinking. There are only two whole frames each item goes trough, so that's why the belts don't look good. I have a pipe dream - detaching FPS limit from UPS limit, make the game being able to appear smoother on fast refreshrate monitors. I can imagine it needing a significant ...

Now belts can be even more convenient than trains on short to middle distances. I hope there are better wagons, locomotives or some other improvements besides bridges. Unless the bridges add so much value to the train network, hard to judge without trying it. It just feels silly to me to have 8+ wag...

Very cool feature. I have to also note, that limit of 10 parameters can be quite limiting for huge blueprints where the effort of filling out tens of parameters can still be worth than having more smaller blueprints. If you could find a way to make the parameters count unlimited, it would have been ...

Hi again, I have an available train station and a train scheduled to go there reports "destination full" even though there is a valid path to it. I need to set the train to manual and back to automatic to make it go there. Same-ish issue as here: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f...

At least, the combinators of the XXI century :P Is it possible to send output signal only to specified network color? I see we can compare or send input count value from selected inputs, but there seems to be no selection on which output to put a signal to. I am for example thinking about a case wh...

I have tried to update to latest version repeatedly but I keep getting an error. Factorio restart didn't help. Haven't tempered with install files. No mods installed. Should I try uninstalling and clean install?

Huge refineries builds (on landfilled areas) will be so much easier now as you can summon water anywhere you want!

Presumably different planets have different gravity. With that, items would have different weights. Do the item weights change on different planets? Is the rocket capacity still 1000kgs everywhere?

With one cargo landing pad per planet, can it become a bottle neck in mega bases?

Legendary modules, you say? Well played.

And epic furnaces in the blueprint? I bet those are literally epic quality furnaces and/or with epic quality modules.

7. Respect the copyrights This theme is currently not completely clear, remember, this game is alpha. But in doubt ask! This is the best sign of respect. More is in general currently not needed. IMHO the game is no longer in alpha. :mrgreen: Other minor cosmetic changes and updates to the rules may...

I would like to add more entities with circuit network interface for even bigger circuit possibilities. Main ideas include: 1. Power pole for power statistics - avaiable power total, avaiable power from different power sources power, total power usage and demand... 2. pipes for fluid content and ena...

1a) is it possible to load/unload vagons on all 8 straight segment variants? 1b) if so, what about pumps and fluid vagons? 2) I would like to see a possibility to place a train stop on all 8 straight segment variants. It would allow way more flexible and interesting stop designs. Have you thought ab...

Question to devs - have you at some stage considered the 16 ramp variants? What made you decide to go with just 4? Is it the huge angeled/polygon hitboxes? Is it the sprites count/data demandingness? Some kind of technical limitation? Optimization limitation? Does it look bad? Or do you just want to...

Have you considered having an opportunity to assign hotbar actions to regular quickbar? I think it could be very useful, I could press one key (1,2,3,...,0) for a custom action (roboport, exoskeleton toggle) and wires and remotes popping into a hand rather than having to memorise all the multi-keysh...

The remaining shadow problem - shadows are still being drawn flat over a non-flat entities. F.e. the powerpole casts a flat shadow over the inserter in the FFF pop quiz image. Is that it? Edit: Also, I think that tall entities like assemblers don't get shadows casted on, the casted shadows just go '...

HE HAS REVEALED THE ANSWER
remote refueling is a thing, and it will be available to you before you can elevate trains

My bet would be on electric trains or emergency power mode, similar like bots do

Great job guys, STFU and take my money! Few questions: 1.) Is it a free 2.0 feature or expansion only? (I will get it either way :P) 2.) Can you walk on elevated rails? 3.) Can you make train stops evelated, even though you can't (un)load anything? F.e. for parking purposes 4.) What happens when a r...

Recently I was watching some major tech channel on youtube and they used Factorio UPS to compare different CPU performance. I think this could be a great out of the box game feature to test UPS on few automated game scenarios (megabases, a lot of bots, biters, huge worlds with no user interaction) a...
