I recently have been looking for a way to manually position a few GUI elements using X and Y coordinates, but found no exact way to do it. This would be really useful, as Flows don't really fit in the scheme of things I'm trying to achieve. Basically, I'm trying to implement a user-customizable GUI ...

Any ETA on Angel's Logistics? My factory still uses quite a few items from Angel's Logistics mod and I can't migrate to 0.16 because of it.

I'd love to see a port of this to 0.16

The save and the mod folder are provided in the previous post.

Hello, I'm playing a modded game with around 145 Factorissimo surfaces. The game runs fine most of the time (60/60), but it sometimes stutters. I've noticed that stuttering happens when I move my mouse across different entities. Quickly moving mouse around entities (of any type) causes "Chart R...

Lithia water from Bob mods can't be barreled anymore - is this on purpose?

I absolutely despise the way the mod silently changes some things. You have to spend unnecessary amount of time figuring if the mod will silently mess something up for you. Furthermore, the config file is a mess. Graphics options are intertwined between behavioral changes, so you have to read it in ...

This might be a stupid question: what's the latest version of the smelting mod? I've seen people refer to 0.2.1, but in mod portal I only see 0.1.4.

Is there a way to detect when a unit-spawner or a turret is created on a surface?

When using find_entities_filtered to find a player under specific position in every 4th tick, factorio lags massively. This worked fine (with no performance penalty) in 13.9. The code is used in Magnet mod to check if the player is active (whatever that means). Basically, running this code every sev...

Regarding help, you really can't help Yuoki, unless you are good with modeling and making sprite art. He doesn't really want help with spellings. ;) If you want to offer locale translation, feel free to submit it here. You don't need a github to get that going. Has Yuoki provided any justification ...

Very well, if you don't want objective criticism, then I won't provide it. All I wanted is to make Factorio more fun indirectly by improving quality of it's mods - mods are one of the selling points of Factorio. I thought you of all people understood that. The more people play the game, the more mod...

The typos and grammar errors are on purpose. As for some of the recipe names, there are reasons for them I doubt that. BP-CAT-28 stands for Bergius Process Catalyst #28, of course. But you don't really need to know that to use it. In my post I was referring to the "make some" part of the ...

So I've been trying this mod and I find it's graphics beautiful. However one negative thing that keeps me from fully enjoying the mod is improper English: even I'm not a native English speaker myself, but I can't help but to notice typos (e.g. Blue Unified Sciene ), non-english words (e.g. Argonomie...

In my opinion, the proposed Loader is nowhere close to OP. I play factorio primarily with full set of Bob's mods, which add crazy additional complexity to production chains. As such there are much more items to manage and juggle all over the place. Because of this, belts are even less useful in ther...

When using Bob's mods & RSO, RSO causes Nickel ore, Sulfur patches and Cobalt ore to spawn on the map. Even when these 3 ores are added to ignoreConfig, they spawn on the map anyway. These 3 ores have been disabled in Bob's mods by default for quite a while and shouldn't spawn when used in conju...

Small request to developers: would it be possible to link the next version of factorio on linux with -rdynamic flag? This would export all symbols in such a way that they can be accessed by the dynamic linker and so native factorio plugins could make use of factorio's internals. This way one could b...

Lua scripts usually have little impact on game performance, I talked with one of the devs about that quite recently. I also asked them if they'll move to luajit at some point, but according to what he said there is no need for that. Maybye in the future they'll do that, when mods/game will use much...

In my opinion, the current modding API is quite limited (and yes, I get it that neither the game, nor the modding api is "completed" yet). It works well for content mods that add similar things to the game compared to the ones we already have (Bob's mods, DyTech, etc). However, the moment ...
