The description of game.server_save does not make it obvious that it only works in multiplayer mode. Or more specifically that it does nothing in singleplayer mode.

Treating this as a minor issue is fair. As it doesn't interfere with general gameplay and is really just an inaccuracy. That said, i do still believe it is relevant to get it fixed. For normal gameplay this issue doesn't matter that much. However it is relevant for some modded configurations, for sp...

Brief Crafting recipes, with the character, such as iron-gear-wheel or transport-belt takes 31 ticks instead of 30 ticks. While recipes such firearm-magazine or underground-transport-belt take the expected 60 ticks. Where? This issue seem to be reserved to crafting with the character (handcrafting)...

So couldn't you just disable it while your mod is active?
Effectively forcing the user of your mod to use your custom timer.

I can try pulling the research queue, the next time I look at the mod.
on_research_finished and on_research_started doesn't really work for me. As that would mean the research tasks are added to the task list on a nearly random point.

Dropping items on entities doesn't trigger any events There is a fairly specific handling of dropping items on entities where only one item is fast-transferred. However neither on_player_fast_transferred or on_player_dropped_item triggers when this happens. Change event fast-transferred I would pre...

I don't particularly care about dequeued technologies, since cancelling research is easily done by going back in time and just not queuing it. But i can see why it would matter for other uses :) on_research_queue_changed would need to have an indicator of the index and if the item was queued or dequ...

I can use 'game.auto_save(name)' to save the game locally on demand as a workaround, but it prepends the name with '_autosave-'. The autosave is also marked as an autosave , which means it can only be overwritten by another autosave-save which is annoying. I would prefer game.server_save to work in...

What I would like an event on_research_queued similar to on_research_started . How Fields: research :: LuaTechnology -> the queued technology queue_index :: uint -> the research queue index of the technology name :: defines.event tick :: uint I can probably handle any implementation, but having the...

I don't think it is actually possible to get "my blueprints". At least I couldn't find anything even remotely similar.

I guess you have to choose between Typescript or the mod toolkit. I would choose the latter.

If the problem is that you are changing the crafting queue order, then you can try to iterate backwards.

Would something like Avatars work for you?

Somewhat related. It is also reported wrong for fast assemblers unbarreling. /c do local p = game.player local item = "water-barrel" local e2 = p.surface.create_entity{name="assembling-machine-3",position={-1,2},force=p.force} e2.set_recipe("empty-water-barrel") e2.get_...

This is for scripting and it applies at least to assembling machines & beacons. Module inventories get_insertable_count reports a count that is off by a factor 50. Which aligns with the stack-size of modules. For an empty beacon I would expect get_insertable_count to return 2. Reproduction code:...

TL;DR Give mods the option to manipulate LUA::global before a Save The opposite of on_load . What ? Fire an event either on: on_save on_pre_save Where mods gets a chance to prepare the save state in some way. With the potential event-data: player_index::uint? - if saved for one player, the index of...

Okay that sounds cumbersome to say the least, but I guess it is better than nothing. I have absolutely zero experience with RCON, so let me try to wrap my head around it. I would then need to setup an RCON client (maybe https://github.com/mark9064/factorio-rcon-py ) I would then need to launch Facto...

Is it possible for a mod to store some data in game A, and then for the mod to load that data in game B? For instance, you have a time trial mod. Where the goal is produce the most iron-plates in 30 minutes. So to compare, you would first run the time trial and produce 1020 iron-plates. Then next ti...

I think this may be related: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=103658

I can't see their relation, except they both mention artillery.

This report is of the discrepancy between [artillery-shell-range-1, artillery-shell-speed-1] and all other weapon upgrade technologies.

I'd have thought that for a TAS run, player.build_from_cursor would be used. Idk if it has this functionality though.

I suppose it is worth a try.
I managed to recreate the functionality myself, so it isn't critical to change any more.

I want to query if a player has unlocked an achievement, but i can find very little information the api. So maybe someone else knows more? As far as i can see There is a table of in game.achievement_prototypes . There is a LuaAchievementPrototype where there isn't a field/method to indicate it has b...
