Re: Version 0.15.1

That would only make sense if they also disabled M to map. No, they are quite different. The old map only updates when you visit somewhere, or a radar scans it, so that could quite realistically be available with "ground only" tech. The zoom-to-map shows real-time activity everywhere you ...

Re: Friday Facts #134 - Signal placement indicator

To wich one is the one circled in red orientated? Since it has two possible rail connections. Don't remember how it is in vanila atm. But don't they link to one wich you cant choose? If yes, only show that line :) To me it looks like it can be on either track, but not both. The lines point to each ...

Re: two belts on one tile width

You can also carry 100's of factories around in your pocket. I don't find it too much of a stretch to imagine that there is more going on below the surface than meets the eye. Perhaps each tile is a 20m square, and it's just the icon that fills the view. Just seems an arbitrary thing to get "it...

If we can't manage multiple level with the same belt, why should we be able to do it with different belts?
Maybe because yellow underground belts are already burried 1m deep, red ones 3m deep and blue ones 5m deep? You can't see how deep those little entrances go...

Re: Long distance status display using combinator circuits

Ah, okay that's fairly simple. Does the coloured wire replace the copper power wire, or is it a second wire on the pole? I never thought of using the existing power poles to hang the signal wires from :)

thanks.

Long distance status display using combinator circuits

I've seen some interesting "LED Displays" built using combinators, and I'd like to have a central status board using lights to indicate problems at outlying outposts. I can't work out how to get the signals back to the main base though. Do I have to plop chests or something every 'n' tiles...
