I made some additional tests and calculations. For the tests I modified the recipes-ratio to 8:8:8:8 instead of 10:10:10:10. So I came to the following results: With the energy of 1 cokecoal you can "produce" 15 coal in a basic mining drill, 8 coal in a burner mining drill and 64 coal in ...

Yea, I noticed some items have it. But most don't have. And I doubt more than half items have 1 as manufacture time.

The devs decided to disable IO functionality (for good reasons). Sure there should be no generic IO functionality. But there could be carefully handled global storage for each mod. Only that mod could access it - no sharing between different mods. Just like mods can save to savagame, there could be...

Just wondering why you complain about the cokery. I mean the treefarm itself produces wood/ fuel out of nothing ;) Anyway, IMO the cokery/cokecoal becomes useless if I lower the output, because it is not worth to produce it anymore. Tree farming works in real life. Obviously it'll take little work ...

The cokery really feels like a cheat... Virtually free way to increase fuel value. It should make the fuel more compact and thus reduce the count in the process thus helping logistics. The fuel value actually lowers a bit in reality.

Currently there is no global saving (eg. to another save game) and the copying doesn't save the state of assembly plants. Any chance for these to come in? Perhaps need for mod interface requests? Also the mod causes some odd behaviour with selecting and placement of stuff after using markers. Reload...

A bit old topic, but I really like this idea. However, it should be more of a generic power suit. It should also have improvements for production aspect. As not everyone wants to fight the enemy head on. Faster manufacturing of items, more storage, more movement speed, copy assistant (autofill blupr...

Your suggestion for native anger levels was already discussed and I must say is verry good idea but it would require huge change in game dynamics which somehow I belive developers arent prepared to do at this moment. Current enemy is just a placeholder anyway... It remains to be seen what kind of r...

There could be both hard and soft limit. Soft limits gets dynamically adjusted depending on what is used by current mods. While hard limit is some sanity limit that mods can't overdo to make the game borked or very slow. However, the hard limit should just limit the value instead of crashing when go...

It shouldn't matter where the player is. What should matter is player bases and other built stuff. If you have mining base far away that transports stuff to your main base, it should get attacked just as well as your main base. The distance the natives are angered should depend from the size of you ...

Obviously this system isn't perfectly optimal use of the assemblies as you can only round to integers. In a larger system you could make it much more efficient. But still, designing such in minimalistic way would be much harder. For a quick system to do 4 blue factories compared to 4 of these, there...

To be completely fair, though, I see at least one trick that would not have worked on older versions, namely the way the second copper wire factory is fed (in both versions of your factory). This works because the hitbox of inserters has been reduced. Various things change from version to version. ...

Inspired from vel-master's 14x17 factory, I made a bit of improvement into 13x15 size. Maximun production speed of blue assembly machine and only uses items that can be researched before making first blue factory. Iron plate belt has to be as shown while copper plate and coal belts don't care on whi...

That is to be able to use basic inserters to store factory output for easy picking to player. Currently it is only possible at the point where you have smart inserters as with normal ones you would be filling the whole large chest needlessly or using too slow inserters to get any real amount of ite...

the filter inserter is pretty handy for that. It works, but is all but handy. If you have one normal belt with both sides at full capacity and you want a guaranteed split that no wrong goods ever enter the wrong side you have to use inserters on both sides instead of letting old belt continue for o...

Belts have two sides and it is often useful to have different items on each side. But currently it isn't possible to easily divide the lines into own belts. That sort of basic activity shouldn't need using filter inserters. As for the item, I suggest making a single square item that leaves one side ...

It would be nice for burner inserters to be able to fuel themselves if they are moving coal or other fuel. Obviously you would have to insert the first item yourself still.

Each item should show the manufacturing time cost required to make the item. Currently the time shown for raw materials is only to make the items leading to current.

It would be very useful for calculations to see the manufacturing time cost.

It would be nice to be able to have very small chest with storage size of 1. That is to be able to use basic inserters to store factory output for easy picking to player. Currently it is only possible at the point where you have smart inserters as with normal ones you would be filling the whole larg...
