At first I thought "damn the space-platform gone". Though on second thought, it's not bad if they are considering to add a lot to the game itself. So yes if that's something far down the line, why not after release. But please don't consider the game sold and finished when released. It's n...

I would like to know too.
Are the devs having plans or thinking about introducing any of these suggestions?

To increase the eei I would like to suggest more altererations in the terrain generator, so it can produce a more subtle change of climate (now its feels like either dessert, water or dense vegetation) so it feels more rewarding to "leave the nest" and explore, maybe add some 'real' rocks ...

Not a serious bug,

I pauzed my single player game(shift+space) and pressed different move keys (wsad) and noticed that the animation of the player changed. The animation corresponded to the keys. The player didnt _move_ but animation changed on key-change.

For a speedrun you don't want to spend time bringing in resources if you could have had them from the start The challenge in a speedrun is being fast at doing it not solving resource shortages. Good point, though it also feels like that's cheating for an official speedrun. If I look at various game...

Seems like some biters are trying top left of his base. I see one red dot in the sea, 3rd picture

In 4 hours? Sounds incredibly fast for the whole rocket thing. I would like to see that before I believe that. First thing I think about: They probably played on peacefull or altered some map-generator-settings? The speedrun is here: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8137&am...

Wait, 100 somethings, that should mean there's something to celebrate. A celebration always comes with cake. Where is the it!?

What I would like to point out is that we need identical or at least similar settings to start with or there's nothing to compare. Don't you think that too?

In 4 hours? Sounds incredibly fast for the whole rocket thing. I would like to see that before I believe that. First thing I think about: They probably played on peacefull or altered some map-generator-settings? well it was closer to 5 hours: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/3h6kjc/speedr...

So what do you think about it? What time do you take for this? I know some things can be done better in this replay i've made

I regularly play factorio again, love the random. Faster, better strategies. I wondered if something like 'speed runs' could be a thing here for some people. It's an interesting challenge to improve yourself. Factorio version 0.12.4 needed to replay this file V12.4_Replay.zip copy the file to "...

Hi, This is my 1st post on the forum :) I'm a math teacher in France, in a private high school, so we have more flexibility regarding the programs, i'm already using factorio for teaching purposes! We used various programs as an introduction to programming, logic/optimization thinking but since Jan...

On the heat side of things, there is this new invention, only been around a couple of year .... air conditioning. Or is every home / office having A/C a US thing? As far as I know the habits of europeans, we are all getting A/C in our new cars everywhere, but as for A/C at every home is only for th...

I definitely support the motion of using factorio in/for educational purposes. A fun way to get the mind running and trained in logic and teamwork. Maybe you could add a math problems behind the research. Or a story that needs calculations to unlock doors, stabilize machines to open a path. I liked ...

Sorry, but no.
I don't have much time to do any kind of updates/changes to this mod.
If anyone wants to, feel free to do so.

Nice work!
Looking forward to the new rail-signalising system, v0.12 is going to be a hit.
I bet you'll be able to see it in the sales, rocketing towards a humongous amount of sold copies when it's released on steam.
I'm glad to hear that this summer wont be a rushed v1.0 deadline. Phew

It would be cool to see that little number at the top.

Thanks darkshadow1809!

I've been busy irl. But the mod is still progressing, adding locales aka translations.
I'll probably do an update this month, not sure.
But it'll NEED the latest factorio v0.11.22 update. (brings an important fix for translations in mods)
