Laughs in Factorio
- Factorio has seen tons of bugs in its development. It just so happens that the developers are some of the most effective bug squashers in the world of software development.
  
  The 6000 unit tests they run on every build is the most effective bug squasher!
- i should try that one out someday
  
  It's the closest we'll ever come to time travel. You start playing and suddenly it's the next morning.
  
  It's a great time as space age aka 2.0 just released. If you're the type to get absorbed into min/maxing stuff, remember to say goodbye and I love you to your family before launching factorio.
- I mean factorio has tons of bugs
  Oh you mean s*ftware bugs!

Having your spacecraft ripped apart by floating point rounding errors was part of the charm, and I'm sure that some speedrunner has used a massive disintegration bomb to cause the physics calculation frame to hang and phase through an obstacle.
- i used to exploit that a lot
- there's a whole sub-community around building physics exploit driven crafts:
  look up "kraken drives" ;)
  
  hell yea i always like making em >:D

Glitched/bug machines are the best in games, I used to enjoy Reid Captain on YT when he would use some physics bending engine to move so fast it's basically like teleportation.

Kerbal "mod spaghetti" program
- yeah
