This is a good opportunity to finally stop showing the player the rotational speed of an inserter (or of anything else similar) instead of items per second like in the belt. The thing is that Factorio players are expert nitpickers, and depending on a whole array of factors change the "items pe...

Very cool, although I agree with the previous commenter, that "unlocked by" is an information I look up once, and is the least important when looking up stuff. Perhaps it could be further down in the entry?

Love the inventory sounds. Reminds me of how our brains are trained to distinguish the sound of pouring hot water and cold water, allowing you to hear temperature. Soon i will be able to hear when i am filling a furnace with coal or collecting plates, instead of just spamming shift-clicks to guaran...

Very nice! Are some new music tracks coming as well? Planet-specific sounds sooo inviting.

I also find it a strange artefact, which never made much sense to me.
But I have a feeling that the 2.0 is coming with major tech and science rebalance, and no effort will be put into balancing the current state, which I can understand.

Afaik it is stated in the new FFF that it is indeed implemented now, but I don't remember where it was stated or what were the specifics.

I think that is a very cool idea, but alas, I can understand that the artists time is better used somewhere else, propably.

Should've been a nuke

Just started playing captain of industry and it is pretty neat to have an option to show production and resource usage in "per 60 seconds". Makes it easier to just do math in your head for more stages of production instead of making an excel sheet or using helmod. It may also be favourabl...

Assembling machine circuit control applyed on centrifuge removes challenge of designing efficient enrichment process. I am not sure it is correct approach. But what is there to design? The only challenge, that exists, is the attempt at circumventing the base game buffering logic, which is so hacky,...

Rimworlds storytellers are dogshit. The only meaningful way to play is randy random, which is literally random, instead of stupid scaling according to your "wealth". Any scaling according to the player in general is detrimental to any progression feeling. There is no reward for getting bet...

I wonder why you'd dos a forum of a non-competetive game though

I never use any belts except top unlocked tier, and have auto-recycling foreverything else. Does not make sense to produce additional clutter.

Hosting anything on windows unrelated to AD is a special case

I do have my pitchforks ready, if yall are not upgrading bots as well.
Point to point on demand logistics and trains is what differentiates factorio from other similar games, not faster belts.

I wish there would be a button to force mine alignment for aesthetical reasons, if landmines are to be aesthetical.

I find the checkerboard pattern easier to work with, especially on corners.
Otherwise a nice writeup, good job.

If Factorio is like programming, you just added Vim, when before we only had notepad.

(To be clear, I like Vim.)

No, we had only Vim, and thankfully now we have something designed around UX this time, instead of vim
(To be clear, I dislike Vim.)

Very cool! Will there be a possibility for the said parameters to affect the tiling of the blueprint?
Let's say a blueprit for a solar field, or a railway, where I change a parameters, and the blueprint gets tiled?

It specifically says that the feature is free. Also, cloud sync has been working flawlessly since day 1, unless you insist on manually changing stuff, and ignore the limitations. Happened to me once. Cloud Sync was definitely the one and only reason switching to steam release for me, when it got int...
