cross-posted from: https://biglemmowski.win/post/2418820 > For me, the most interesting point was the short mention of open sourcing Factorio (around 2:40). Kovarex seems to be very much *open* to the idea, he mentions that (as an approximation) maybe two years after the DLC after things calm down ...

I found this Python script a few years ago, it is simple enough that a non-programmer could understand 90% of it. I just remembered it had been running as a scheduled task all this time when I thought I had lost some saves. Thought I'd post it here in case anyone can use it. Minor things are hard coded but they are few and easy to edit. https://github.com/nonbhoward/backup_factorio_saves/blob/main/run.py

Hello, let's try and make a cog wheel on the Canvas. Space is getting limited, but I believe we still might squeeze in. Here's a template (after moving to a new area): https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=921&y=276&zoom=1&tu=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FgbA1i7V.png&tw=43&tx=536&ty=339&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

We plan to release Factorio: Space Age expansion on October 21st 2024. The reasoning for this date is that it will give us enough time after summer vacations to polish the release, while also leaving enough time afterwards if we need to do bugfix patches before the Christmas holidays. The price of the Space age expansion will be $35.00, the same price as the current base game. You can wishlist the game now over on [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/645390).

Exciting Linux news :D

It could be done with yellow chests with filter, but also buffer chests, right? What are the drawbacks of each version? I thought buffer chests would be perfect but then I realized that they require the inserter from the yellow belt assembler to have a circuit condition. Is there an even easier way?
