Not a bad idea. I'll look into implementing that with the next release.

I'm not sure that using my code to learn Lua is a good idea. I'm a total beginner too! Although I am experienced with other languages and I have made some effort to write nice Lua code. What's happening is that the mod creates the buttons in the UI the first time it's run. This is the hook on line 1...

Marathon nerfs the fuel value of wood, coal and other fuels. It should nerf solid fuel as well. This change adjusts the fuel value in a similar ratio to other fuels, so is balanced in the Marathon world. To revert this change would make solid fuel twice as strong, and therefore OP. In the discussion...

After 46 hours of play time my green circuit capacity is 200/min.
The factory is totally solar, drawing 30 MW.

I'm not a speed runner… I reckon with some experience and a plan you could get to this point in 25-30 hours.

Have fun, and
KeepOnBuilding!

I know… I like it that way.

If I wanted a fast game, I wouldn't be playing Marathon

But of course I understand that this slow start would be a bit frustrating for most people!

KoB!

Hehe, didn't you like my super slow start iron axe recipe?

I have managed to play through to blue science with these recipes, and haven't found anything terribly unbalanced. Everything is slow, as it should be

Thanks for the release, and
KeepOnBuilding!

I have updated SpeedButtons to version 0.0.3. It now works with Factorio 0.12.11+: https://github.com/KeepOnDigging/SpeedButtons/releases This mod gives you the buttons but none of the other fancy stuff like settings screens or change-speed-on-crafting. Sorry about the delay updating, I haven't been...

I can confirm this. factorio 0.12.4 was the last version which launched on my OS X when its icon was double-clicked. I see this error in the syslog immediately after double-clicking: Sep 19 15:12:44 Mac com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[212] ([0x0-0x77077].com.factorio[1921]): Exited with code: 1 There ...

+1 to this feature. I want to stamp out exact copies of factories and miners. Including the exact module configuration in the original factory. I don't want automatic module swapping or anything fancy. I just want blueprints to place an exact match for the original factory, just like the name "...

Is ore supposed to be more 'belt-efficient' than finished plates? Yes! A Marathon main bus carries ores, rather than plates. Each copper ore expands into 5 plates. Each iron ore expands into 2.5 plates which isn't quite as bad. But if you try to use a traditional main bus with plates on it, you wil...

Hi Gus, You're right, I don't have enough experience with solid fuel to balance it. So thank you for your valuable insights! May I ask for clarification of a few points before I answer in detail: - "0.5 * Yield^2 * 7500 - 375" isn't right. Perhaps it should be "0.5 * Yield^2 * 7500 - ...

Yeah, I think Bob's and DyTech already rebalance the game "their way".

If you want a harder experience with them, perhaps ask on their threads. Either the author or a keen user might help you out.

KoB.

Because Marathon just tweaks base recipes, it ends up being compatible with everything, as long as they don't change base recipes also. But that means you only get the Marathon experience with base recipes. Any ores/recipes added by DyTech/Bob's or any other mod will remain unchanged. And because M...

I had never used a block of solid fuel either, until I made the rocket parts in my recent 0.12.4 vanilla world. I have never made a factory which uses logistic bots for anything other than replenishing my inventory either. Everybody has their own play style. I think on the sulfur/oil balance, we'll ...

I have not done much play testing with these recipes yet, so I don't think this is ready for release. I probably won't have time to play much until October. Certainly I won't have 100 spare hours this month! Sulfur cycle I am just about to start on blue science, so I have not really tested the new o...

I have forked Afforess' version of Marathon and made a few tweaks: - balanced all the other recipes which use iron and copper plates (including power poles) - balanced sulfur, sulfuric acid and plastic production. On my last play-through I needed only 2 sulfur, 2 sulfuric and 4 plastic plants… not t...

I have updated Hobbitron's SpeedButtons to work with 0.12.5:

https://github.com/KeepOnDigging/SpeedButtons/releases

This mod gives you the buttons but none of the other fancy stuff like settings screens or change-speed-on-crafting.

Enjoy, and
KeepOnBuilding.

I would call this a bug for sure. I think the best option is to cap the amount of resources in each block at some sensible value. And lose the resources. So where config file has: min_amount=350, add max_amount=70000, Or something similar. Great mod, thank you! I'm really enjoying being forced to us...

Sorry to necro this thread, but this question is closely related and the solution may be a coordinate-display mod. I have a few mods installed which create buttons in the top left corner of the Factorio window. These buttons hide the coordinates on the debug info. Is there a way I can move the mod b...
