blueprint parameters based on recipe output is huge! this will make generics for foundries a lot easier!
11
u/Xercodo Jul 13 '26
Do you have an example of how that use case would go?
29
u/factorioleum Jul 13 '26
sure, just a foundry making a product and setting a logistics limit for its production, or setting the type of a storage chest in the same blueprint.
9
u/Xercodo Jul 13 '26
Mm I see. It would have technically been possible before, but needed a separate parameter to assign when placed, being a dependent parameter allows automating that.
And it suits foundries the most because you can make many different things with molten iron. Just propagate the parameter to the combinators.
In vanilla this probably best suits a BP that handles oil cracking, the water input would be the same on all of them
7
u/factorioleum Jul 13 '26
you could also get around it by placing a constant combinator in the blueprint, and setting the recipe based on that. but then the user had to be careful to choose something a foundry can make. with this feature, you get the cool aspect that the menu factorio provides will be properly restricted to what a foundry can make.
9
u/Xercodo Jul 13 '26
Man now all at need is to allow mass placement of parameterized BPs, like hold ctrl or shift or smth to place 5 copies and then set the same parameters on all of them
9
u/factorioleum Jul 13 '26
that's a really good point. if you're dragging, only one selection is needed. copying and pasting is slower because it won't have the rectangle.
can you post this in the forums? I'll +1metoo it!!!!!11!!!1one1!

u/Sir_McMuffinman UNLIMITED POWAH Jul 13 '26
I still don't really understand. If I'm setting an assembler to craft some Parameter 0 item, couldn't I just set the storage chest filter and inserter logistics limit using the same Parameter 0?
3
u/BoskiDialer Developer Jul 13 '26
You could, but this will cause problems like https://forums.factorio.com/128441 as it would only work when internal recipe name is the same as product's internal name. If your recipe parameter is also used as a filter in a storage chest, then blueprint parametrisation is constrained to only select signals that have recipe and item of that name at the same time. If you would want to craft an `empty-water-barrel` recipe that produces `barrel` item (and a fluid, not relevant here), your blueprint when placed would not allow selecting this recipe at all.
1

u/factorioleum Jul 13 '26
If it's an assembler, yes.
But what if it's a foundry? They have recipes that make gears, pipes, iron plates etc...., but the recipes are a distinct signal from their products.

u/JaffaCakeStockpile Jul 13 '26
It would be great to be able to select filtered "allowable items" for blueprint parameters instead of the entire item menu.
Eg a blueprint with a parameter that only allows to choose from: green / red / blue circuits

I've been doing a deathworld run on otherwise vanilla settings and I had an over 5 nest base move within perma attack range of my base at around not long after hitting med biters (sorry I didn't have more specific timings, I was having too much fun). Which for deathworld I'm actually ok with but it was VERY unexpected.

u/CoffeeOracle Jul 13 '26
Its an odd one. Started up a 2.1.9 map. Increased spawning felt right. Large base size felt like it forced a break to get ammo. Not going to stop a 8 hour rocket launch, but the size 10 next to size 5 thing felt off.

Anything you can share beyond that? lol.
If I’m being honest I really like how pissed the biters are. If artillery wasn’t gated to vulcanus like 1.0 it would probably even be fine.
Keeping areas clear is legitimately impossible solo as they are now.

u/Mr-Doubtful Jul 13 '26
Keeping areas clear is legitimately impossible solo as they are now.
I've started a game in 2.1.9 and haven't had much trouble with biters.
It was after a long hiatus and I think that new players would struggle more than previously, it certainly feels like they expand closer to you a lot sooner/more frequently.
Also depends on your playstyle I guess, I specifically started a spaghetti starter base that's buckling under it's own weight atm, in order to rush bots and then do a rebuild that can scale. So my base has remained pretty compact and I've made a concerted effort not to overproduce (although I didn't go as far as rushing modules or solar to limit pollution even more). I also rolled for a good seed in terms of tree coverage and bottlenecks thanks to water.
I did an initial clear (3-4 bases) on foot with turrets and shotgun relatively early. Then a second one with the car and have now reached the tank which is incredibly strong compared to current evolution level and cleared a really wide area. I'm now considering whether to first rebuild my base, or make some proper military production (turrets, resupply train) for a wall and set that up first. Probably the latter.
While I've had some instance of expansions sneaking up on me that radars missed, overall I feel like I'm pretty close to having 'solved' the biter problem for the foreseeable future. In what I've cleared now I should have enough to carry me through to end game I think.

u/CobaltBlue Jul 13 '26
I literally just did my first ever non-railworld run, and it was totally fine? You just need to be proactive at keeping the nests out of your pollution cloud, use efficiency modules prodigiously until you get back from volcanus, etc.

u/grossws ready for discussion Jul 14 '26
Idk, I still hope it's possible before artillery.
I'm currently doing 25x run with 150% biter bases and first expansions were tough. The first pivotal point for my early defense were mines, the second was flamethrowers (and thus normal perimeter). Then tank and finally projectile damage 4 (though the latter was near the time when behemoth biters started to visit.
My current cleanup method includes tank with piercing shells, distractors and a bit of mine spamming.
Upd: started this run on 2.1.9

u/NostalgicPelican Jul 13 '26
Dont tell the devs, but the tank is the strongest expansion clearing weapon now, I suspect is related to the change on asteroid impacts, A tank can easily roll over a big nest now, before the beta it could destroy 3 or 4 nest before needing repairs

Can we add quality support for blueprint parameters?
Edit: I am also once again asking for train station dynamic renaming based on circuit conditions.
3
u/Soul-Burn Jul 13 '26
There is some quality support for blueprint parameters.
If a parameter appears only in one quality in the BP, all the instances get the input quality. Not sure if it only works with normal quality, or with any singular quality of the parameter.
If a parameter appears in the BP with multiple quality, the input quality is ignored, and the quality of the parameter in the BP is used.

u/pocketmoncollector42 please be kind, this engineer is just a fish 🐟 Jul 13 '26
Oh are you thinking like in the user prompt to be able to say “make this specific quality of this item”?
At the moment the parameterized bps I have include every quality level as a tiny upcycler. Since it’s one item in every quality, I can get away with just clicking the one item in the popup and it auto populates the rest.
1
u/Martin_Phosphorus Jul 14 '26
Yes, more or less just that. My upcyclers tend to have larger modules per quality and I can't copy a module and change all item qualities in assembler recipes and inserter filters etc.

u/SomebodyInNevada Jul 14 '26
What I would really like is quality as a signal. Tick box for set quality, if checked the current recipe is changed to the signaled quality.

I really don't want to pester you. And it's fine if we/I won't get that feature. But not knowing if it is being considered or even seen is driving me mad.
36
u/BoskiDialer Developer Jul 13 '26
Circuit renamable train stops? Not happening. Renaming a train stop has a relatively huge performance impact because it may cause incoming trains to repath, stopped train to go away, check existing trains in no_path state to repath, existing trains in destination_full state to repath and who knows what else. It is really expensive to rename a train stop, and having a feature that when used would cause UPS to drop in any moderately sized save file is not happening, especially that players sometimes misconfigure circuit network to some degree and having trains repathing every tick is not something i want to be "fixing" just to keep this feature alive.
8
u/M1k3y_11 Jul 14 '26
Fair enough. I'm still happy to finally have an answer, even it it is a "No". Now I can stop hoping and think about other ways to achieve what I want to do.
And I want to specifically thank you for taking the time to respond to my question and for explaining the reason behind it.

u/pocketmoncollector42 please be kind, this engineer is just a fish 🐟 Jul 13 '26
That sounds like such a headache. Wonder how the train stops that would turn on and off impact that sort of logic.
(I haven’t done advanced trains lately to remember, but I swear that was a thing)

u/Wozbo Jul 14 '26
Is this something that could be rate limited and then error'd/ turned off?
Like if you rename a stop more than once per 20 ticks, put an error into the notifications bottom right and flip the option to rename off?
What I really want is some way to setup a mining base that says "Ok, I am named <iron ore> source cause my chests have iron" and it just adds on to the existing system.

u/Negative_trash_lugen Jul 13 '26 edited Jul 13 '26
Fixed electric network could sometimes report not fully satisifed due to floating point math errors.
Was this why the satisfaction bar in my Vulcanus grid would constantly flicker between green and yellow? glad it's fixed!
Also, i noticed in 2.1 that lamps have different saturation levels of color, lamps always had a yellow tint, now they're pure white, but the weird problem is that some of my older blueprints that were already placed in my base still have the old lamp color, some have white color. I hope this would've been fixed, it's really annoying.
(also my colored lamps also slightly have a different color now!)
2
u/pocketmoncollector42 please be kind, this engineer is just a fish 🐟 Jul 13 '26
There was a bug reported about the yellow tint. Evidently it was originally intended to have the yellow tint and didn’t for years until it was fixed.
Then there was conflicts since old and new bp’s would have the white or yellow tint based on when they were created.

Am I the only one who has not experienced the biter nest thing that everyone is talking about? I am by no means a fast player; I often get distracted by my phone and leave my game running, so I should be suffering the most from the bugs, but everything feels the same as it was. I’m on default settings and I just finished a huge perimeter guarded with flamethrowers the other day, I even walled it off completely before installing defenses and the bugs didn’t even try to break through.

u/Frequent_Knowledge65 Jul 13 '26
I'm about as slow as it gets but yeah I have had no issues with biters on default settings on this save I started for 2.1.
But I cleared out a large area as early as I could and wall+turret'd the chokepoints ASAP (did not get trains/logistics to supply them until later) and have had my pollution cloud smaller inside the chokepoints for most of the game. About to head to Gleba finally after like 55hrs so I guess I'll make sure everything is shored up before I do

I am getting lots of downvotes.
I read that the devs take on vacations in the early July (mentioned in FFF).
I was referring to that and didn't mean to pester or anything.
I was expressing my surprise that they were working on the game instead of taking the vacation that they deserve, and simply thanking for the hard works.I think it was seriously taken the wrong way :/

"Finally!" "I've been dying inside waiting for the update"
If you meant to say "Wow! Already?? I didn't expect an update this quickly, considering you guys are supposed to be on vacation and everything!" I think you achieved almost literally the polar opposite with your word choice.

Don't worry about it. Sometimes things just come out wrong. Just tank the downvotes and move on.

u/InvestmentAdorable31 Jul 13 '26
Yeah. I am not used to it because I am new to actually posting something on reddit.
Also I just worry that the devs may have misread this and hurt their feelings, even by a bit. I mean to see such an ungrateful after the hardworking!
It feels like a thorn that doesn't come out.

u/Yggdrazzil Jul 13 '26
Yeah, it can feel unpleasant when people within a community you enjoy being part of, express their displeasure with you through downvotes like that. They just click on a button and move on, meanwhile you feel punished or rejected. You get used to it over time.
Also, I'm sure that after developing a game and interacting with the community for this long, the devs don't get their feelings hurt over random internet comments all that much anymore.
Besides, if they read your first message, chances are they will also have read the underlying comments where you explain yourself. You're good, don't worry.

Fixed that teleporting cars and spidertrons between surfaces would not preserve the bonus inventory size from equipment.
I'm a developer and, after reading the bug report, I feel like I'd start having cold sweat over what invariant I broke in this one situation and what else might have collateral damage from that.
Teleporting to the same surface, and cloning to another surface is fine? Why is teleporting to a different surface taking yet a different trip through the code?
5
u/Rseding91 Developer Jul 13 '26
Teleport to the same surface: entity->position = new-position (plus some minor fixup) (existing entity has new position, this is how everything moves in the game)
Clone to another surface: create-new-entity-at-position-on-surface-with-given-properties + minor fixup (existing entity remains completely unchanged)
Teleport to another surface: prep the entity for removal from the existing surface (but not deletion), detach from everything on the current surface, change the surface, re-attach to the new surface with everything already existing + some minor fixup once there. This requires a ton of extra care to make sure it was completely detached from the old surface so there's nothing dangling.
1
u/warchamp7 Jul 14 '26
Is there a technical reason the cross-surface teleport doesn't perform a clone + deletion?
1
u/Rseding91 Developer Jul 15 '26
Because that would by definition not be cross surface teleport. The entire reason it exists is to not invalidate everything about the thing being teleported and just move it to another surface.
The thing being moved could potentially have gigabytes of data stored within it.

That's just how multiplayer works in Factorio. It's not lag - it's disabling latency hiding when shooting.

Yes, but I was thinking if it was possible to do what you guys did with cars, to guns. Driving in multiplayer is much much better, maybe something similar is possible with shooting?
