Re: Version 0.17.63

Why is there no mention to changes to fluid box connections in entities? There definitely was some change, since several mods broke due to it.

Re: [MOD 0.16] Realistic Reactors

Is making underground heat pipes that behave like normal heat pipes even possible? To my understanding, there is no prototype that can transport heat AND act like an underground pipe. This type of thing would me to be implamented in the source code, or be done via script (like it was done here, exce...

Re: Friday Facts #305 - The Oil Changes

Just my 2 cents regarding the concern of promoting the 'worse' method of making solid fuel by unlocking only the gas recipe for it first: lock the light recipe behind a 'better fuel refining methods' tech. Done.

Re: Friday Facts #305 - The Oil Changes

Personally, I don't think that this oversimplification is a good idea. It doesn't fix the complexity jump of managing multiple products, it just puts it off. Plus, there's the new issue of new players just making a line in line out, since they're not aware that the other connections even exist. Mayb...

Isn't Sulphur a side product of 'lightening' oil products? AKA the cracking process? (IRL)

Re: Mods marked incompatible should refuse to start the game

A pop-up in the main menu? Something sufficientvelocity different from the experimental warning though, so that the player doesn't click it off on instinct.

Or better off, add an option to tick off the experimental warning as well.

Re: Friday Facts #303 - Under 100 bugs (but still not stable)

As most people have the game already, this advice might not help much: Buy the game in the factorio shop and if possible don't connect it to steam. If you buy the game on Steam, steam gets up to 30% of the price as rev share. 30% for little effort on their side. Ok, marketing and visibility are hig...

Re: Friday Facts #303 - Under 100 bugs (but still not stable)

Arguing that they are the problem is like arguing that ebay is problem because someone stole your phone and sells through it. So... Let's say you sell cars. If someone drove a car up to your lot wanting to sell it to you (for you to then resell it to another), you consider it perfectly fine to just...

Re: Friday Facts #303 - Under 100 bugs (but still not stable)

you gave them 2 days to process an inquiry about 66k $ and complain that they didn't reply yet? probably this strategy just affects sales after they released that news, but still, this does sound like g2a are the good guys. Even if you made 6600$ loss (330 games), you probably earned much more from...

Re: Version 0.17.56

Why would this impact the rail bridge mod? Doesn't it only mess with collision mask settings?
Edit: ohh right, this version of the bridge mod exists. Thought it was about the water bridge rails.

Re: NauvisDay - Gaia's Revenge, and your attempt to adapt to it

Is it normal that my evo gets to 0.8 before I leave the burner phase? Using AAI industry, so getting to power is a lot slower.

How can I be sure that Bio Industries being installed guarantees the presence of a resin recipe? What if he updates the mod and removes it, or the mod is modular?
You could check the presence of the aftermentioned recipe, and only add yours if it doesn't exist.

I find that using steel chests in some places and iron chests in others makes it easier to use upgrade planner. Just set one for one type, other for the second.

Re: [MOD 0.17+] Deadlock's Industrial Revolution (WIP)

One potentially major argument against non furnace type furnaces. With furnace entities, once you upgrade the efficiency of the system (say, going from raw ores to cleaned ores... This is a viable way to increase efficiency right?), they will automatically update their recipe once they run out of th...

Re: [MOD 0.17+] Deadlock's Industrial Revolution (WIP)

Looks very nice, but being such a wide overhaul is a BIT of a problem since it kills compatability with other mods.
Watching this, but will probably not play it on launch (since I'm busy explorering space atm).

Re: [MOD 0.17] Deadlock's Crating Machine

I'll try to figure out a bit more tommorow then.
As for the brighter color bit, it doesn't seem to work at all. I tried to only edit the base tint stuff, but then I recived an error about the brighter color stuff.
