Not only that, those expensive mice are configurable so you can set the buttons to whatever you like (R, shift-R), on a per-app basis.

You can mine bots out of the air (right click them). Then they are taken into inventory and recharged instantly.

Oh, god, yes, please, please, please ascend Recursive Blueprints to vanilla.

Only bonus #2 and #7 apply to non stack inserters, maxing them out at 3.

Oops, well my face is red. That explains some things, I've been thinking all along that non-stack inserters max out at 4.

Erm, currently, the max "non-stack...er, non-bulk" inserter hand size is 4. The 3 is the bonus granted by the various levels of research, that is added to the base level of 1 hand size to get to four.

So, count this suggestion already implemented.

The major issue is with modpacks, where the icons are often so similar to each other that trying to distinguish based on just the icon is hopeless. It should be settable per player in multiplayer games, and the name should localize for each player. Internally, the name should just be the icon, this ...

Unfortunately the "add the text" form of the icon only appears to work in chat. Can't get it to work anywhere else.

Can I +1000 this? The text should be localized according to the player viewing it (for multiplayer).

I tried out the solution that mrvn posted, and at least for map tags, it doesn't work. I'll be trying it on train stops when I get a chance, and will report back.

NO, that's not what I want. The filters will be set by wire. The requested feature is just to have the filter inserter set it's stack size to the signal count of the item it's picking up. If you have the filters set by wire, and send the same set of signals to all the inserters, all of the stack fi...

Signals divide rail into blocks. If you hold a signal in your characters hand, it will show with the continuous colored lines where the blocks are. A train in automatic mode will never enter a block occupied by another train. The signal you have placed has divided the track that I can see into two b...

That doesn't limit the number of items you load or remove excess, doesn't handle balancing items between cargo wagons, doesn't handle the requested number of items not being divisible by the number of wagons, doesn't handle loading items with many inserters when you need many items but just one for...

I agree that this should be a thing, but I disagree that the circuit logic is either complex or large (unless you consider 3 combinators large), nor does it require getting any timing right. You can use "anything, anything" on a decider combinator to pull out one signal from the "this...

Interesting. The 'Wall D' stop on that screenshot is disabled by a circuit. Does that make a difference to pathing? No, as far as I know, any stop imposes a path penalty of 1000. I've never observed a train taking a sidecut through a disabled stop, even though I have tons that would be convenient t...

I have observed trains using stop free paths as a loop to avoid having to stop or slow down for a train crossing in front of them, but never a path that has a stop on it.

Keep in mind that trains follow the signals on their right side.

I do the same, except not with bots, I have a fuel train that delivers fuel to every pickup location. New fuel is delivered only when the chest is empty, which makes switching fuel as better fuel becomes available trivial, I just change the stop at which the fuel train picks up fuel.

Lowering the train limit (even to 0) doesn't stop trains that were already en route from going to the station. My setup does that all the time. If the train stops with "No path" flashing, then my guess is the stations is getting disabled, not just the train limit being lowered.

A hard priority system follows the orders of the player. A soft priority system is a system which by definition will ignore the players intended behavior. Just set your priorities correctly and dynamically if fixed priorities is not aligned with your intended behavior. So what you're saying, is tha...

I see that train blueprints now undergo a state transition once fully constructed. This is a thing I desperately want for more general blueprints: some kind of combinator which sets a signal when the blueprint containing it is fully constructed. I have the issue that I really need for some of my co...

I never used icons in stop names, making that a necessity sounds like a terrible idea I think this is needed because in multiplayer one player could in Spanish and the other in English. So 'iron' would then not work in e.g. Spanish… icons prevents this entire problem. You could have a token that re...
