When scanning for resources with V the text that shows how many and the distance overlap each other. Offset the results vertically so they don't overlap. Link to source

While connecting power cables, pressing V to scan for resources cancels the active wiring process. The player must restart wiring from the last placed pole after the scan completes.

Display how many research packs are still needed to complete each technology in the tech tree.

A top down view of the world showing location of players, resource deposits, and other points of interest. Also custom pins/markers players can place on the map or physical beacons they build in the world (sort of like how the research table shows up on the compass now).

Modules that increase machine production speed at the cost of higher energy consumption.

Ability to copy, rename, and delete save files from within the game, and to exit without saving. Currently players must manage save files manually through the OS file system.

Vertical belt lifts for moving items between elevations.

When dismantling a belt or pipe, the support structure is left behind and must be removed separately. A toggle (e.g. "I: include supports") in dismantle mode would let players remove both in one action.

Add a notification / warning when resource deposits are getting low. Could be time based or pure numbers. 15min of mining left at the current avg rate, might be unreliable. Or when the deposit has less than 5000 and then again less than 1000.

A world setting or accessibility option to disable weather. Might need to still simulate clouds and rain for solar panel efficiency.

A world grid would be an optional snap point when building concrete or machines. Also should let blueprints use the world grid as an origin so they can be placed more easily.

Power generation is more than enough to cover machine demand but the status still shows insufficient power occasionally. Link to source

The default unreal engine RPC calls are limited to 64 KB. Trying to tell the server to build too many buildings fails.

This should be something that multiple players can use. It needs to fit into the "lore" of the game, I don't think a bed works very well unless there are more home/factory decoration items.

1. Add a way to filter only selected machines power consumption. 2. Add a way to sort by power consumption / generation (ascending or descending). 3. Show the number of machines of a particular type. 4. Show the total (or average) power consumption / generation for each type of machine.

Has happened on client and host. Doesn't come back until host or client restart the game.

Only seems to happen for clients in multiplayer. When dismantling the new items the player gets does not show the item changed notification on the bottom left of the screen.

The onboarding is tied to a world so it should be something that can be disabled when creating a new one. Maybe require players to create at least one world with onboarding first before allowing it to be disabled.

Trains can derail when colliding with one another but there is no notification to the player. Use something similar to when a building is damaged to alert the player when it happens.

Need to smooth out movement in multiplayer for clients so the trains don't instantly snap forward every few frames as they move.

The nudge direction should align with the rotation of the concrete/foundations and not the global directions. Link to source

This would allow users to set a max number of items or slots that can be used. Link to source

Allow the player to tweak resource deposit size and density. Link to source

It would be nice if when building another splitter/merger that it if it's the same type it retains the rotation of the one you are building on top off Link to source

Allow the player to turn machines on or off completely so they don't produce anything and don't draw any idle power.

Add power switch building to connect/disconnect power networks from one another

Right now the hotbar contains the "physical" items that can be moved in and out of it. There is a desire to changing it so that the slots on the hotbar are links to the items and are enabled/disabled based on if you have any of those items in your inventory. This would more easily allow for multiple hotbars and for items to not shift around as they run out and get more.

Would be nice to have more types of building pieces like shallow ramp, windows, half walls, etc. Maybe even another tier of concrete with a more polished look.

Add a production stats overview screen to show how many items are being produced / consumed over time.

Also if V-sync is off please add ability to pick FPS limit, I don't want to run this game with my full GPU power at 250 fps (I have 165 fps monitor)

I know not everyone likes combat so my goal for more enemies would come with new game settings that let you pick between “peaceful” (no hives or enemies spawn), “passive” (current setting, enemies will only attack if you come near them, which I realize is not technically “passive” but close enough), and lastly “hostile” (enemies will seek you out over time and spawn more aggressively).

A mid to late game option for players to shuttle items around with low throughput and high energy cost being the tradeoffs. I don’t know if letting drones fly items directly into & out of machines would be a good idea or not. The first implementation might only work with drones flying items between upgraded storage containers. Maybe a Drone Depot would act like a mix between a storage container & a Factorio roboport. You need to add drones to the Depot to put them into the system and then they could move items between other Depots in range.

In earlier builds there was a day-night cycle but night was always visually too dark and without giving players the ability to add lights it just didn’t work. This is something I want to add back if I can work out the performance issues related to having infinite number of lights in a world.

I’d like to add more building pieces to allow players to express their creativity better. Examples: stairs, doors, ceilings, half walls, windows, more ramps, etc. This would likely come with new types of concrete like “Reinforced Concrete” or “Polished Concrete” with different health and visuals.

Maybe? I want to find a strong use case that a majority of players would find helpful, otherwise it’s a nice to have
