I'm trying to load a savegame in a fresh (zip) installation of Factorio. When I click the "Sync mods with save" button, this window pops up: http://i.imgur.com/75FqYWJ.png When I open the api url from the logfile in a browser, I do receive what appears to be a proper json response that doe...

Just connect them to the same circuit and set the same (or opposite) condition, depending on if you want them both on at the same time or one off when the other's on.

Not exactly a railworld according to the presets, I started a world using RSO mod (I may have selected the Railworld preset, but the resource settings get overridden by RSO). The few mods used are all from the portal. *edit* Oh, it isn't peaceful, but that's easily fixed with a console command (shou...

When opening the research screen after completing a research, the screen has selected the completed research, but it doesn't scroll down to just completed one but sits at the top of the list. Since manually selecting a technology does scroll down to the next available, I would expect this just compl...

Getting an error when I try to follow a train while already driving another train:



Game version 0.15.3, other mods: FARL and Logistic Wagon (not researched yet)

With the newly added science packs, I think it could be beneficial if the science pack icons listed after "Cost" could be clicked on to take you to the tech that unlocks it (or at least include the name of the unlocking tech in the mouseover)

Exchange strings don't contain anything about presets since the preset isn't saved in the map either. All presets do is change the rest of the options in a nice packaged way. Right, makes sense. Perhaps a visual indication of this would be to deselect all presets when you enter an exchange string? ...

I'm playing around with the Map generator window and noticing some inconsistent and/or counterintuitive behaviour. I'll list some of the steps I tested, bolded the behaviour that seems off to me: - Paste a map exchange string - Map seed is filled, resource settings get updated, Preset doesn't move -...

This save has a very noticable hickup every 1 or 2 seconds. It's very likely completely related to Robot Army, but perhaps it'll show an optimization chance in the mod api

I used to go running around trying to find patches, nowadays I tend to play with Big Brother to increase radar scanning speed and range, that tends to get me zeroed in on new patches of resources fast enough. Apart from that, I also use Robot Army, send a few early squads out to clear biters and als...

I feel like youre looking at this through a more experienced lens. I actually think you're doing the exact same. In your case, you (an experienced player) were guiding a new player, introducing her to concepts faster than would've happened in a normal progression. I really don't think your proposed...

You may need to be a bit more specific than that. What exactly have you tried?

You can simply delete the mod from the mods directory inside the application directory. Not quite sure which OS you're using, but https://wiki.factorio.com/Application_directory should tell you where to find it. Also, you're probably missing some of the required mods for this particular mod, I think...

If you want to get a longer running game experience, you can always just get Marathon mod. That'll surely give you quite a few more hours to chew on.

Please let me know if you find the reason. The reason is basically in Posila's last post. This is very likely a problem with your Windows installation, not with Factorio. Microsoft has been extremely aggressive trying to push Windows 10 to all computers running 7 or 8. What I would guess is, Window...

I'm just about starting on automating refining into the various ores, so far I've just been smelting the crushed ores straight into plates, doing a tiny bit of sorting to get things like silicon, gold and aluminium. Desperately need to scale that up :lol: (and then i'm playing without bob's electron...

At 82% evolution my Mk1 defensive laser turrets are really struggling to keep the waves under control. Also, with all the splash damage, roughly one lamp blows up every few minutes (I like to have my defensive wall well lit :) ). Also, not sure if it's RSO, Bob's or just base game updates, but I fin...

The record is probably <4 hours for a speedrun. Most veteran players probably carve out all kinds of goals for themselves, stretching the game from anywhere between 20ish to 200+ hours. Then there's a boatload of mods to try, ranging from minor changes to almost complete overhauls of the game, addin...

I'm currently playing again, so modding is kind of on a hold (I can't seem to split my Factorio time between both, it's either one or the other :mrgreen: ) I know all about that, I also have some kind of idea for a new mod, but just can't get myself to sit down and work on that, factory must be mai...

clearly represents a huge setback for factorio compared to what came before it. I hope you're not suggesting the completely overorganised clusterfuck of mod boards on this forum was so great, because it wasn't. Mods were "organised" into different categories, but it was impossible to actu...
