Factorio Dev Tracker

Having redo was on my radar for quite some time, but it didn't get through the filters that enabled us to actually finish the game before we get old :) Maybe some day later.

This is why we made tips and tricks for the 1.1 version. I will encourage everyone who plays a lot to go through everything there, even if he knows almost everything, as a lot of the small tricks are not as widely known as we hoped for.

Its fixed for 1.1

Yea, 1.1 will follow the standard experimental phase into stable candidate process.

The menu simulation is a part of base mod, so if someone removes base, the original static image is used.

We considered it before 1.0, but it seemed too different, with some serious drawbacks like delay between issuing the command and the spider starting to run towards it. I don't know how many of the drawbacks are feasibly solvable for now.

Never say never, but for now it's simple as is.

The FFF is just a demonstration of the concept, in the game it's moving, and the simulations each take about 10-20 seconds.

You won't necessarily need circuit network at each stop in 1.1, it depends on the design of your system.

This is solved in 1.1

In what way do you want to combine them, just as a video?

For lots of my work, I use ffmpeg to encode a sequence of .PNG into a single mp4 video.

It is as simple as running on the command line:

ffmpeg -r 60 -start_number 1 -i frames/frame-%03d.png -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p aout.mp4

You have a good point, but I don't plan to participate in this, the peak has already been achieved.

This is where the circle closes, the one extreme (f*cking awesome) meets the other extreme (mentally disabled).

The circle is closed and universe is now in balance.

I approve this.

Hello,

this trully looks quite unbeliavable, there are some obvious questions to have:

1. Isn't it a fake?
2. What kinds of subsets of the game did you choose, I mean, you state that there are no robots and electric network is vastly simplified, but what about the rest? Do you have enemies? Trains? Blueprints? In yoru screenshot, gui is just 4 files, while our gui (not counting the library) is few hundreds times more.
3. Obviously, if you want to share your code, no one will stop you.

Also, we never stated that multithreading is out of the table, it just always proved to be better to optimise the core loop instead so far.

This got our attention and for sure we want to check it out. Can we get our hands on a working copy?

This video made me from "yeah nuclear artillery isn't a good idea" to being militantly sure about that. XD

Yeah that's where all the insanity starts... :d

Very nice!

Mac build is already 64 bit
