Igwb: Archive the page

{{Languages}}

{{:Alien artifact/infobox}}

As of 0.15, alien artifacts and alien science packs were removed from the game. This makes destroying [[Enemies#Spawners|alien spawners]] only beneficial for clearing out land, preventing attacks and/or just presenting an extra challenge to the game.

Alien artifacts (also known as “Alien eggs”) can only be obtained by destroying [[Enemies#Spawners|alien spawners]]. They are needed for some very powerful high-tech equipment, but mainly for production of [[Alien science pack]]s. Unlike other items dropped on the ground, it is not necessary to use the “Pick up items” key to pick up artifacts—simply walking over them is enough. Like other items, they can also be picked up by ordering [[Construction robot]]s to “deconstruct” them.

Alien artifacts become more and more challenging to obtain, as the more enemies are killed, the more the remaining enemies will [[Enemies#Evolution|evolve]] stronger.

Igwb: /* 0.15 update plan */

== 0.15 update plan ==
I'm thinking of updating the Oil Processing page to reflect to 10x change in 0.15, and I'm a little unclear on the update policy. It says "For major changes to existing entities, update the pages to 0.15 info and move the 0.14 info to a small paragraph", which sounds like I should go ahead and do it; but also "As of stable release, fully update the page's text and exact values," which implies that I shouldn't update the values until the stable release.

I am also unclear of the policy. Should we mark removed features as archived or wait until the full release? [[User:Igwb|Igwb]] ([[User talk:Igwb|talk]]) 08:26, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

== Total raw recipes ==
Some of the "Total Raw" recipe fields are wrong right now. For example [[Processing Unit]] and [[Rocket part]] aren't decomposing their ingredients at all.
I posted on the forum (https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=47617) but thought I should ask here as well.
Are these fields getting automatically written by something? If so, can you point me to the script so I can try to fix it? If not, should I just manually edit the ones that I see are broken? [[User:Grumphrey|Grumphrey]] ([[User talk:Grumphrey|talk]]) 19:35, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

: Hey there grumphrey, we ran a tool by a community member that updated recipes to 0.15 automatically, and it's possible that it may have left some raw recipes unchanged. The tool isn't recurring, so go ahead and change the values manually to the fixed ones. --[[User:Gangsir|Gangsir]] ([[User talk:Gangsir|talk]]) - <span style="color:#FF0000">Admin</span> 21:18, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

:: The errors in the files I was using have been found and fixed, so I updated all the infoboxes to the correct values. I should be able to update the technology infoboxes tomorrow. -- [[User:Bilka|Bilka]] ([[User talk:Bilka|talk]]) - <span style="color:#FF0000">Admin</span> 19:57, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
