similar here. i saw a clip of someone live streaming factorio on twitch. i had been playing minecraft for over 3 years weekly with a friend (on the same map). showed factorio to him and he said, amongst other things, it has trains . yes it certainly does...and so much more. we haven't revisited mine...

i actually find the bot sounds rather endearing. gives them a little personality (haven't seen '5igns' however)

i have had issues with sites that used really dark backgrounds since i first saw sites (which was long enough ago that i don't really want to think about it). for instance i use the lightest theme on this very forum to save my eyes. i like the new style site and totally get why the trademark colours...

i had the same question a month or so back. as mentioned the .zip version is the way to go.
i have three different 0.18 'installs' all with different versions.
it also helps when you connect to multiplayer servers that utilise differing mods from one another.

first rocket is complete along with a satellite (actually 3 satallites) and plenty of resources for starting the next one. launch will be happening tomorrow (when my cohort and i are both online at the same time). thanks for all your tips.

all very useful and interesting. i appreciate you folks taking the time to reply. will be sharing this with my co-factory worker.

It is true that the tooltip for the rocket part could (should?) mention that you need to craft 100 rocket parts to have a complete rocket. Thus, you can see this already before researching the rocket silo tech – by just checking what it unlocks. yeah it took the wind out of my sails a bit...already...

Put productivity modules into the silo. That drastically cuts down on the materials you need for the rocket parts. It increases the assembly time even further though

cheers. appreciate the tip. went with speed modules first but will get some of the productivity versions on the go.

only to find that the actual rocket is still much assembling away...

well i went down the run another instance on a different port route. edited config/config.ini on my existing install and uncommented the port to port=34915 uploaded another version of the headless server files to /opt in a different directory (factorio_space in this instance), created a new world an...

intersting thread and thanks all for the useful info. just starting a 'properly' organised large factory (compared to my first) and i'm putting a lot more thought into logistics.

hi all. i run factorio (multiplayer) on a dedicated server (debian - 32GB RAM). have only ever run one map on it but am thinking about creating another using the space exploration mod. this may be something obvious that i've missed but a bit of searching and a look at the wiki hasn't helped any. run...

i wish i'd found it sooner. being having every saturday sessions with a friend, on the same map, on minecraft for what i think has been 4 years or more. often just an excuse to catch up and chat. i think it was squirrel (UK streamer) that was playing it on twitch and i had a lightbulb moment. sugges...
