You're correct about getting the uncolored locomotive back when you mine it. The same is true for concrete. Changing the color of the light isn't supported by Factorio natively. D3 can give you a much more accurate answer on whether it's possible to do via script, but my gut reaction is that it woul...

A mod, that is used often is the best prove, that a concept is good and should be in the vanilla game.

Then why does this forum exist o.O

Use this: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=94&t=7887 [MOD 0.12.0] Fluid Barrel (1.0.0) :) I appreciate people suggesting things even if they're already in mods because the goal of this forum is to help make Factorio the base game better. If something is a good enough idea, it s...

That post by kovarex might be of interest to you Bob.

I seem to have found a small issue that's not really a bug, but something that might be worth looking at. I unzipped a fresh install of the game to test out a specific mod set that included EvoGUI. When I tried to show player locations, it spammed a message that it was trying to use a nil value. Aft...

Adding another control to the game, just for this reason is really dangerous, the game has too many controls already. I've heard you say this before and I'm curious as to your reasoning behind the current implementation. As it stands, the shift-click works sometimes but not others, which is counter...

EDIT: Never mind, I misunderstood the math. Chalk it up to it being before noon when I attempted to do anything useful.

Oil has a non-percentage richness value. It's just not displayed to the player through normal gameplay. As far as the feature goes, I think an ore scanner as an upgrade for a radar would be a great addition. You should need one for each ore patch and placing it down will total the richness of all or...

I believe it has to do with the way your toolbar and ammo belt interact with auto send on craft/pickup, specifically which items have the send to quickbar or send to inventory flags. Hopefully someone who knows exactly why it works the way it does will swing by with a better explanation.

You can reproduce this by placing an underground pipe while keeping MB1 pressed and then making the smallest movements with the mouse. I can't seem to reproduce this in 0.12.4. No matter what I do, I can't fast-replace an underground pipe with an underground pipe. Hey you are right, this is probabl...

This is by design.

Anything you can place won't be sent to logistic trash, nor will ammo. Though I don't know why red/blue circuits wouldn't work. I haven't actually tried it. That part might be a bug.

I have had the same experience with underground pipes. I thought it was the mouse as well, since Razer products do the double click thing after a while.

I agree more to do with non-liquids would be pretty cool in the base game, although I don't know if it has the design space for an all new system for gases. Oil already makes fairly good use of the pipe system and chemical plants, and I would rather see more uses for heavy and light oil before addin...

Unfortunately I'm in the middle of switching jobs so I haven't had time to work on mods or even play the game recently. It's going to be a month or more before I'll be able to work on it. I guess this is the wrong time to feature request then, but have you considered colored walls as well? Hope you...

If you're going to use 7 inserters per wagon, you can't have a space between them.

Train hitboxes are a bit tempermental. When you remove the space, watch which inserters are taking from which wagons. Some wagons will have 7, some will have 6, and some will have 8.

3) Solar power 3 good. There are no cloudy days or eclipses or anything like that which alter the reliability of solar panels. They work all day every day and there is no need to have a backup power source. This is the only issue with base game power. Solar and the storage for solar is basically ch...

shit :( then I'll probably have to change to 0.12.x experimental Thanks anyway It is actually becoming quite stable now. The only annoying bug I've encountered in 0.12.4 is biters expanding where they shouldn't be, but it's been fixed for 0.12.5. I think having two weeks between releases says that ...

That's what I figured. I just didn't know if it was in support of the Rail Tanker Mod.

Are those liquid tanks?
