This would have been to allow planetslib to render moons instead of visible planets in space, as that mod is basically deprecated.

Would really love if this would be part of 2.1

Would really love if this would be part of 2.1

i would like to up about two thing I think would be interesting:

Improve Wire Rendering The idea is that wire would get rendered by shader instead of squeezing a sprite (which in a case where wire are straight make them strictly one pixel large)
Setting Parent Body for a SpaceLocation This would ...

Wube never disapoint when it's back to it's FFF.
Some other studios tried the formula, but only Wube has the true recipe.

i meant more in the sense of "I like building random spaghetti nearby, and occasionally upgrading all power poles on the map to legendary even if not needed", which will inadvertently reconnect the separate power network by accident.

When a block works I usually don't upgrade things like power ...

Rimworld modding is C# based, however as far as I understand Rimworld itself is programmed in C# (Unity engine) and the modding "API" is just a hook into the class and object structure directly. It's directly patching the game, not going through a well defined modding api. A different concept than ...

Yeah separating power grids is a pain though, because each time you put a power pole nearby it will just autoconnect the two networks and you need to undo it, making setups really hard to keep compact, which is likely the reason this change was implemented in the first place.

It also lags quite a ...

also gonna be funny when the speakers dont work from low power so you wont get notified something is wrong XD


Then do what real life system does: Make a secondary electric network for important things that need constant power even on global power failure.

On my factories I usually put ...

Here it's totally unoptimised, consider that on every pixel, it will get to check if it's near a cable:
1) we have sdSegment that return the distance of any point to a segment defined by two points.
2) we have sdBezier which does a 12 point interpolation of a bezier curve, use sdSegment on each part ...

Curved rails are managed by sprites and it seems reasonable becaus eit can became really complex because they hold a lot of details.
But the fact is that wires are monocolored and mostly empty sprite that is stretched and skewed, on some cases they are so thin that they are barely visible.

My ...

It shows a triangle of red wire on green background. ( and their shadow )

Can you highlight which number to modify to change the position of one point of the triangle for someone with no background in programming to see how it looks when the point are placed differently ?


There is PowerPole ...

Sorry for unknow reason, my shadertoy demo link has problems and the account too, so simple paste the code in a new shadertoy

Also before I was just putting a simple example, but actually I'm trying to make something that would permit to register and dispatch micro events like:


player_built_entity.register({
{filter="type", type="constant-combinator"},
{filter="ghost_type", ghost_type="constant-combinator ...

I'm starting to build an event with lots filter case

To summarise to look like this:
script.on_event(defines.events.on_built_entity, function(event)
game.print(serpent.block(event))
end, {
{filter="type", type="constant-combinator"},
{filter="ghost_type", ghost_type="constant-combinator ...

I know it's been near one year, I've got some update about that.

I tried with my humble programming background to write my first ever shader for wire rendering demonstration

Go to https://shaderoo.org/?cmd=new and replace by the code bellow.
// Example: draw one wire
struct Wire {
vec3 from ...
