[kovarex] [0.17.47] Chain Rail signals display issue

When a chain rail signal is set up ahead of a regular signal that is controlled by circuit, the display of the rail signal gets locked in the wrong setting. It seems like the signal will still direct traffic correctly however. Attached is a save file, turn the CC on to set the regular signal to red,...

Re: Combinator error

Here you go, new empty game with no mods.
Top combinator is set normally.
2nd is set to each + SP3 output to SP3, works as expected.
3rd is a copy of the 2nd, modified to 500 + SP3 output to SP3, has an error.
4th is a copy of the 3rd, the error stays even with a copy.

[Twinsen]Combinator error

It is possible to get combinators to calculate incorrectly: CombinatorBug.jpg I had initially had the first value as S3 mods, but changed it to 500, it seems it doesn't respect that change and keeps the first setting. A fresh combinator will calculate correctly, so this is not a high priority issue.

Re: Idea to nerf bots - make them take up space

Bots today don't have physicality - they can infinitely overlap, with each other and with other game objects. A pretty intuitive and visually-interesting nerf would be to change that. Make bots get in each other's way. If there are a bunch of bots going in the same place, make them cluster and bloc...

Re: Pushing trains, ideal for small train stops?

You can load/unload on a curve too, just not with 12.
But fuel doesn't need as many inserters.

I had the same problem.

Re: Another way to get the full content of my logistic network?

You can also turn off the mini-map from options.
That will get more room for information.
Also there is a mod to turn it on and off with a key combination (control M by default):

Re: Option for trains to deal zero damage to players

There was another post (bug report maybe) that mentioned that when you're manually driving you don't reserve blocks like automatic trains, so if you merge or cross, the other locomotive may not have time to stop.

Re: Option for trains to deal zero damage to players

If you're immune to the damage would you still get tossed across the map? That would be kind of funny. :lol:

Re: Option for trains to deal zero damage to players

You could also try the Honk! mod, although that probably won't help much.
And the author doesn't intend to change it:
GotLag wrote:Victory horn. I don't think the train should honk until after it's run you over, as that would impede its primary function (which is running you over).

Re: Balanced Bot Train Loader

I don't understand the need for this. The bots will load the requester chests fairly evenly, Well, open mouth, insert foot... The bots do NOT load evenly as the OP suggested, and this is a very good solution. The only thing I really changed on it is that I moved the top constant combinator over one...

Re: Even Stations

I could do that, but I don't understand the difference really. Except that in the pathing discounts red signals that are far away, so it could still send a train to the station that is distant. A red signal where the train can reroute to the other station would still work, but why is that better tha...

Re: Skull Island Exchange String

I've had a few games start like this. I think they did something so if you start in water it makes an island around you.
Note how circular the island is. The small lake in the island seems pretty consistent as well.

Re: Circuit Logistics question

1: as far as I know, there is no way for a circuit to know what you are researching. You could see that some beakers are being used and others are not and shut down that part of the factory. But in general, just limit your chest size and let it fill up, you'll use it soon enough. 2: I would also let...

I am playing marathon. I have 4 cable assemblers feeding each circuit factory. It is more than needed, and the cable assemblers are idle sometimes. It would work to have 3.5 cable assemblers, but that would need some creative juggling or bots. It would also need 2 inserters taking from each cable as...

Re: Another try of implementing Power Loss

A fairly simple solution to adding cost to the network is to have every pole have a power cost, I would suggest that the cost be the same regardless of type to encourage larger poles. However, as Qon and I discussed, either the cost would be a major pain, or it wouldn't be enough to matter, and is p...

I'll probably work on a recursive blueprint for expanding territory, then I can expand enough so that hopefully it doesn't matter.
