Re: Friday Facts #364 - 1.1 stable

I really enjoy reading about the processes involved in improving the game. Awesome changes as always :) Never stop looking for that little extra % improvement!

And something about what's on the horizon next week.. can't wait!

Re: Games Like Factorio

Just spotted "Dyson Sphere Program" which was apparently revealed at Tokyo Games Show. Basically "3D factorio in space". Looks intriguing. Early access is announced for 2021, so it's gonna be quite a while until 1.0 i guess. Gameplay Trailer (probably a re-upload?) Steam Early r...

Re: Remove Pollution and "refresh" map?...

If UPS is an issue you may as well switch off the pollution especially as you've already removed the biters, it serves no purpose now!

Code: Select all

/c for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
  surface.clear_pollution()
end
game.map_settings.pollution.enabled = false

There's also the stable branch, which is rarely updated. You also have a choice not to update to the latest experimental version.

Re: Are griefers/trolling common?

Have a look at the griefer database, don't think the OP has been updated in a while, but there's newer lists in the thread.

Re: Version 1.1.2

It is not better for various reasons. First of all, you don't want to pollute the gui of every single entity by this, because if you wanted to be consistent it would have to be done this way everywhere. Which means, also in containers for example etc. It would give the wrong impression to the new u...

Also at least using the huge filler space for something useful would've been nice. Like getting rid of the tiny extra windows for circuits.

So much better, useful and gets rid of the dead space.

If it happens again try updating the steelseries software.
Is this a known issue? Does their software often cause this? I'm kinda really curious to know how you could look at the OP and think steelseries!

Re: Shift Right Click on a train stop to paste it onto train.

I tried this randomly reasoning why wouldn't it work considering the many ways this functionality is used in the game?

I think this would be a great QoL improvement - speeding things up nicely - especially if you use a long train stop naming convention.

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers

Blue_thunder, you can't they removed that GUI button in a recent update. I do hope they reimplement it with additional functionality to show rockets / min or hour however.

Re: Toolbelts/Quickbars side by side

I whole heartedly agree! When you have 4 bars shown it covers a fair chunk of the screen - the important central bit. Attacking biters in a north south direction means your view is more limited, they also seem to get in the way when I'm trying to align the bottom of a big blueprint. 1.png For me it'...

Re: Version 1.1.0

Why was the Rocket silo stats GUI removed? How do we now see how many satellites we've launched? I don't understand why it was seemingly randomly removed. I would like to ask this too. For me (and many others I'd bet) Factorio starts after you launch that first rocket - forever chasing MORE™ . Incr...

Re: "Cannot reach" on 2/3rds of the public servers with more than one person in it

On top of that, today I tried to connect to an online game but the game doesn't show up on the list for me, alphabetically or with filtering. I know the game is up, because I'm watching people I know play on it on Twitch right now. So clearly something is going wrong there. I don't know if these ar...
