Re: Friday Facts #24

Ok sorry for tanking so long answering this.
Is not a bug, it only happens when the storage of the tank is empty, that confused me a bit.

Re: Dont understand the reasoning behind production module

But imagine something expensive, wich you arent giving enough resources for the machine to be working full-time, you add a prod module, and you are gaining resources and a bit of time. Doesnt happen much in the game atm but I have used them for express transport belts that can be a big resource sink...

Re: getitemcount + ghostbuildings

Not sure if it is a bug or not, it is weird, so I guess it is.
For a workarround you can store every container entity in a glob table with the onbuildentity event, land store its waste contents every tick, and if in a tick it is not valid, then pollute what it had in the previous tick.

Re: game.settile

The arguments are a table containing tables with the tiles you want to set,so:
Game.settile{{name="sand",position={0,0}}, {name="sand",position={0,1}}}
I specified two but you can put as much as you want

Re: Can an entity have no collision box?

Transport belts have colision box, but their colision box is different is not -colision-, but its the area where they can move stuff. There are some entities that can also be walked throught like ores, but for entities like... Containers is not possible, there will allways be a small colision box, t...

Re: Disable aliens/biters destroying actual items/buildings

I dont think that will work 100% fine, because that would make you track the entities with the gun, and also it will make you attack them when pressing space. There is a easier way to do it I think, there is a way to set the objetive of all biters and the distractions, so if you remove the distracti...

Re: [0.9.1] Inserter fails to grab from express turn

Yea I dont really see it as a bug, I think its logical that if the transport belt goes too fast the inserter cant pick it.
It would be different if it happened everywhere, not only in curves, because belts would be quite useless in some situations.

Re: Inserter option to pick up items when items on belt stop

I think this can be done alredy (dont think its a feature buuut)
With express belts, in curves and only in curves, inserters arent fast enough to pick the item when going through, im not sure if it works with fast inserters.
I noticed today while messing up with some stuff.
