    • Transport belts - high frequencies reduced.
    • Train - pitch scaling reduced and sound levels remixed (Work in Progress).
    • Inserters lowered in level slightly (Work in Progress).
    • Compilatron muted as it was too annoying.
    • Removed scrollbar GUI click sound.

    Changes

    • Overwriting a save file will show a confirmation if the selected save has more playtime on it than what you are about to save. more

    Bugfixes

    • Fixed tile rendering would break at extremely low zoom. more
    • Fixed dragging train schedules in the train GUI. more
    • Fixed a crash when migrating loader entities in blueprints. more
    • Fixed fast entity split to burner inserters. more
    • Fixed that the pump could never reach its pumping speed of 12000/s. (https://forums.factorio.com/67037) more
    • Fixed logistic and combat robots were missing dying explosion effect.

    Anyone experiencing factorio sleepwalking?

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 12:26 AM PST

    Last 2 days I've been playing factorio like 10 hours a day. Each night when I sleep, I would be semi conscious half the time where I would be deliriously trying to build something in a dream. Then last night, in the middle of the night, I was in a sleepwalking state and began opening all a lot of apps on my phone because at the time I was sure it was related to a factorio problem somehow. I remember feeling very frantic and searching furious for the right answer on the phone. I woke up to my friend asking if I was mad at her because I looked at her texts but didn't reply. I've never experienced anything like this before and this is what I believe sleepwalking feels like. While doing it, I knew I was doing it too it's just that I had a strong belief that was false and didn't have full control over my body. It's bizarre and a bit scary to be honest. Also anyone else have sleep disturbances after playing factorio feverishly? It's killing my sleep. I think I only get 6 hours of sleep and half of it is in a semi conscious state.

    High volume vanilla train unload for four 4-8 trains - sustained 24 full blue belt output (64k/hr)

    High volume vanilla train unload for four 4-8 trains - sustained 24 full blue belt output (64k/hr)

    I've been using this configuration for a long time and haven't actually come across many others that use this method: Unloading multiple trains onto shared belts.

    It seems to work quite well though; this one will unload a steady output of 24 full belts, from four 4-8 train stations. Just as long as you have enough trains to feed it! No idea how it is on UPS vs other methods though...

    4 rails/stations seems to be optimal, but you can easily add more. It takes at most 3 trains unloading at the same time to fill the belts, the fourth lane is there as a stopgap while others switch out (the train on the far Right will be parked 99% of the time if you have enough trains running)

    Note: I am using spawn belts/void belts for fuel + removing the ore, and a few other mods (design sandbox), but everything in the blueprint is vanilla

    Why is my green science slow but not red?

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 01:03 AM PST

    Hey guys, I was hoping you guys could help me figure out why my red science has so much back up and my green science has a pretty empty conveyor belt, they both have their feeding conveyor belt completely full.

    And yes, crazy spaghetti, it's my first factory!

    With how popular the Long Reach mods are, why isn't there an in-game way to extend your reach yet?

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:08 AM PST

    We already have bots, I wish there was a setting to have them go automatically when you try to do something out of reach. Not blueprints and copying/pasting/deleting tools, I mean the regular cursor actions. Hearing the "out of range" sound effect constantly is painful.

    Surely the devs have a reason if something like that is not in the game at this point? So I'm just asking if you guys know something.

    Modding question: get localised string in LUA code

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 01:01 AM PST

    In my mod I have a list of item names and want to display them in a sorted list. Showing the translated text works as the text field does the translation. But here I need the translated text beforehand for sorting. E.g.

    game.player.print{"description.no-ammo"}

    works as expected but I would need something like

    label = {"description.no-ammo"}

    which of course only creates an array.

    What I found is LuaPlayer::request_translation(str) but this is a background call that fires an event on completion. LuaItemPrototype::localised_name only gives me the structure for translation like in the example above.

    LTN Help Please

    LTN Help Please

    Hi - I am using LTN and trying to create a 1k SPM base using a train network.

    I keep running into trains that are filled with stuff that are NOT heading to the right locations to drop them off, or they are sitting at the depot, all full on inventory that never got delivered.

    I thought that LTN only allowed the trains to fill up with the amount requested and then went and delivered. Perhaps I am mistaken.

    I find myself micro-managing the inventory of the trains and thats not helpful. Any suggestions? Things I'm missing?

    Why can't I build a Battery auto assembler?

    Posted: 31 Jan 2020 07:48 AM PST

    Battery is an intermediate product used in personal batteries and laser turrets, among other things. I can set up the assembler for personal batteries, but not for batteries.
