Use the underground pipes. :) But it's not enough! Underground pipes are barely enough to get all the required routing, and when you finish laying down all those 4- or 5- pipes T-sections and cross-sections, there's barely enough (or "just not enough") place to walk. Spread the buildings ...

Before going "public", please change the pickaxe to some kind of omnitool. It's weird and a bit dumb to deconstruct machines and cut trees with a pickaxe. The only use of it as a pickaxe is at the very begining when you need to mine your first ores but that's it

How relevant is this when just one simple extra iron plate will make this problem disappear?

If you read correctly, you can also use the cars inventory. That has i believe 80 slots. Should be more then enough ;) Except you didn't read correctly. ;) Also of note (definitely a bug) is the fact that those numbers don't take into account your car's inventory. In other words, having the items i...

The new intermediate product for engine unit depends on the lubricant. This essentially makes the car and trains depend on the oil industry. This is questionable, because both the car and train are useful quite early in the game so for the 0.9.2 the engine unit will be made in regular assembling ma...

Can we fix it editing a lua file?

Ok, you convinced me there and left me happy with that argument but it makes me wonder about the new assembling machine graphics, I don’t see any pipe entrance on the sides. Is Albert planning to modify them in the future? In 0.9.2 new assembling machines will have a pipe output (made as a graphica...

Yes, that is true, we made fluids because we wanted to have the player think about different setups, with transport belts, inserters and pipes on top of it. If we made all the intermediate fluids as items, it would be the same like before, just combining assembling machines and transport belts. Ok,...

Whole Factorio is about starting small, getting bigger. What about having different tiers when it comes to cars and trains. As well as engines. tier 1: compact steam engine - requires lots of iron, gears and steel to build - any fuel to power (wood, coal, solid fuel) - required to build: -> steam c...

Alternatively, let assembling machines connect to pipes. That is the plan for new assembling machine 2 and 3. Not sure when it is coming, but it is. This would be used for recipes like: barrel loading / unloading, electric engine units, etc. I hope that it won't make the game too difficult by doing...

I believe that the biggest issue so far is that there are many producs that needs to be crafted at chemical plants just because one or two of the ingredients require a liquid or a gas. What I think suits best the gameplay is that most of those ingredients should be able to be contained in a tank or ...

Shouldn't this be on modding subsection?
Also, it looks like a good idea to have the ore deposits work as the oil, giving smaller output and forcing you to find more

Speed Module - Yes
Effectivity Module - Yes
Productivity Module - No

Probably intentional

You plan it better, make two stations, one for unloading, and another one next to it for loading, do the same at the other area

Ohhh, I see. Didn't know about that

Factorio should have a music competition to get new music for it. Perhaps have indy musicians submit their music so factorio can get free/cheap music and the artist can get exposure by creating music for an indy game. Actually we are already working with a musician from GB to do the sounds and musi...

I just played MirrorMoon a little bit. I was surprised when I started hearing the background music from Factorio!

Is there a situation where you would ever want your night vision to not work?

When is too bright already and the auto on/off feature bothers you, like now
