Can you please add a `command`, to be possible center the map on the spidertron? Maybe Shift+Control+Left-click or something similar.

This has now been added to Spidertron Enhancements. Thanks for the idea!

https://cdn.factorio.com/assets/blog-sync/fff-377-new-sbends.png For this image, and perhaps a point I missed, will we be able to also signal in-between these gaps now? As much as the image is a dream come true, without signaling, this specific example won't add too much value to the new system unf...

This implies that technically, you could just take your vanilla base, activate the expansion, and continue playing. But the best way to experience it will be to play with Space Age from start to finish. From https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-373. Having read today's FFF 377, you'd also be wanting ...

The whole point of manufacturing is to produce an item of exacting, consistent, and reproducible specifications with as little waste as humanely possible. Real life quality mechanic: https://arstechnica.com/science/2022/01/all-hail-the-ariane-5-rocket-which-doubled-the-webb-telescopes-lifetime/

This is single handedly the worst addition idea I have seen in any games I play this is a nightmare for any big factory especially if you are one to set up building optimization quickly because you cant limit storage easily as they probably cant stack not to mention your optimization will be thrown...

Trying to get this going and ran into an issue. I cannot handcraft basic circuit boards to push past that tech.

so tempting to hijack this thread and just talk about SE. :D For real. :D But to keep it topic-related: I've wondered if the hiring of Earendel (such a good move) was the reason SE was taken off the "Featured Mods" section of Factorio.com, months ago. I was sad to see that such a great mo...

You can prevent entities being selectable entirely, is that what you want?

Maybe consider limiting automated use of cliff explosives (cliff removal) as opposed to delaying them completely. Making early cliff removal more expensive would be another possibility.

Nukes can already destroy cliffs and are both manual and expensive. Seems to fit your criteria perfectly.

Try putting a car into the rocket silo satellite slot, then try entering the rocket silo

I don’t think that data.raw dumps belong in the docs. If you care about what base mod is doing, then open it up in your editor like you would any other mod and search through it using your editor’s “Find in files” functionality. Then you can see it exactly as it was defined, which is more useful/rea...

Sadly not possible
The only things mods can add to the minimap is map tags

Yes, relative GUIs are the way: https://github.com/ClaudeMetz/UntitledG ... nilla-GUIs

Hello, I'd love to try your mods with IR3, are they compatible or is compatibilty planned for a future update? Definitely not compatible, and I don't think compatibility is likely to ever come. IR3 is already incredibly well balanced - I don't think that adding mods like BZ to it will enhance that.

As far as I know, there's no guarantee that removing or adding a mod in-game is going to work out 100% correctly. I believe your options are to start a new game without that mod, or finish your current game with that mod installed. This is true for some things, but for most things, including recipe...

Yeah, I'd pay extra for SE dlc.

I don’t think the switch is powerful enough for SE…

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Con ... enSettings I'd love an explanation of autoplace_settings, and how it differs to autoplace_controls. autoplace_settings seems empty most of the time

Out of personal curiosity, why are you looking to use a steam deck plugin for the quick bar instead of using the quick panel that's part of the controller based input?

Stream deck, not steam deck

Ah yeah, tutorial missions are kinda like mods. They won’t work with newer versions, so you can’t play old tutorial saves in newer versions.

I came across this error whilst modding. Not a big deal, since I just forget to rename the noise expression name I was using. Just give iron ore the following autoplace: ``` autoplace = { name = "iron-ore", order = "b", probability_expression = noise.define_noise_function( functi...
