There are mods for that.

std::bad_alloc

You're running out of memory. Sounds like the map got larger than what the switch can handle.

I think I found one piece of the puzzle, at least for some linux users: When using a fresh install, the state of the non-blocking saving option toggles whether the save-name in player-data.json will be clean or garbage. I don't think this is the actual cause, since non-blocking saving can't explain ...

Inserters act as soon as the train in front of them arrives, but signals take one tick per combinator to propagate. You need to make sure the inserters are disabled while the station is empty. Train stops can read the id of the stopped train (default signal T). If T == 0, the station is empty.

1.0 is essentially a continuation of the 0.18 branch, that's why there's no 0.18 version archived. During the beta, I recall factorio being able to load games up to two versions older that itself, but that being cut to one version for 1.0. My current 1.1.76 claims to be able to load games with versi...

Here are the blueprints I have for filtering. The first three I found in a blueprint book somewhere, the last two are my adaptions for the filtering signal being boolean (0/1). All use 5 to 7 combinators and 2 ticks. 0eNrtXF1vm0gU/SuIp7YLFTPAQKw00m5X+1R1pWq1u1ITWRhPklH5sGBI1qr833cAx2CHjxkbYxzz0hSDLz...

Power pole plus lamp screams output, but a description in plain English is always useful, so we can get a better idea what a circuit does from just reading the post and not having to try it out ingame. As examples: Adds signal I to the output indicating that this is the I th lowest number. Signals t...

Would normalizing the short forms into the fully specified forms after the execution of each data*.lua be an option? What exactly do you mean by "after the execution of each data*.lua"? Even if all prototype attributes were normalized at the end of a data stage, you couldn't trust that th...

Would normalizing the short forms into the fully specified forms after the execution of each data*.lua be an option?

Or, as alternative, providing utility functions for these normalizations, so mods can rely on a single known-good implementation instead of having to reinvent the wheel?

Edit: One thing I'll say is that 1 copper produces 2 wire, so if you fully utilize one belt of copper, you should be getting two belts of wire.

Factoring in the productivity bonus, this ends up being 2.8 belts of wire.

⚙︎ Combinators shouldn't require current and circuit_wire_max_distance should be 28 for all wireable entities. It's annoying to build extra poles just to connect rather close standing entities and it might cause failures because you don't see always very good if an wired entity is connected with a ...

I do believe this must be a race between threads, once again, assuming belts and inserters run on separate threads! Factorio is fully deterministic. Any given situation will always result in the same outcome, regardless of how fast or slow the users computer is. If there were any races or unchecked...

Inserters to belts behavior depends on belt orientation and it being fixed in 1.1.73 prompted me to do some extensive inserter to belt testing. While I can confirm there are no longer orientation based inconsistencies, some results still strike me as odd. Inserter drop positions (slots until the be...

Out of curiosity, how do robots take fire damage? At first glance, I'd sort fire into the non-targeted group, but bots certainly burn when flying over fire.

In addition to what Tertius wrote: When putting items on a belt, the gap needed at the insertion point doesn't need to be large enough to fit a whole item. Items already on the belt will be pushed back or held in place until there's proper spacing again. Thus, as long as the outer inserters can remo...

Try changing the condition to "> 24999". Remember the and circuit network round up. Missing a word there? Circuit network rounds down, unless it's a fluid in (0, 1], which is rounded up (to 1). Most, if not all, other displays round normally. So, even if the wagon is at 24999.999 and every...

Thats also the reason why production modules are disabled for Covarex.

Kovarex process can use productivity modules again since 0.17.0 (see https://wiki.factorio.com/Kovarex_enric ... ss#History) and is the reason the catalyst system was introduced.

I’m not sure, if those belts can be removed in any case without breaking something. :) That doesn't matter. When manually placing the second underground belt, factorio will remove the belts in between, if they go in the same direction as the underground belt. OP is asking for the same action but tr...

However, I still miss an official machine-readable version of the prototype definitions.

According to the last paragraph of FFF368 it's being worked on; no ETA however.
