Re: Increase run speed

data.raw.player.player.running_speed = data.raw.player.player.running_speed*stsrun Heres a line from one of my personal mods, but anyway, it basically grabs the base speed and multiplies it by the container "stsrun" - which can be a number, i just have it down in a config with all my other...

Re: Energy consuming Weapons

Why not just make as someone said, a battery-type ammo? Perhaps you can script it so when it depletes it spawns a depleted battery cell in your inventory, you would have to "Charge" in an assembler-like machine? Unless you wanted to have it run from your power armour? Then my guess would b...

Re: Multiple equipment grids

hey, if you want something you should ask for it. no point being quiet. its not like it matters when they add it, now, next year. its just a mere suggestion. Just be polite and don't barrage them with requests over the same thing and don't complain if they don't add it. after all, its their game.

Multiple equipment grids

Pretty simple, allowing multiple equipment grids, not sure how easy that would be to implement but it could in my opinion be quite useful. For example, imagine if someone could make a equipment grid where only power generators can be placed instead of the regular grid, where only energy storage and ...

Re: Updating mods to .14

All equipment needs their grid type to be specified and likewise all modular armor needs their grid to be specified as a string referencing a grid object, like those found in equipmentgrid.lua

Re: movement_bonus into other equipment type?

Why not make two items and have control.lua remove/add the other half, one being movement equipment and the other whatever you need? If you wanted to make it seamless you would need 3 items, though. A placement item, which gets converted into 2 items that look like one. Basically you would insert fo...

Multiple equipment grids possible?

I am wondering if it is even possible to add more then one equipment grid to armor, for example. I have tried personally to get it to allow me to use 2 grids with no success.

Re: [Request] power properties on LuaItemPrototype

As i said before, the energy used per 1 second (assumingly) is (energy_usage = "210kW") The time to produce would be assembler crafting speed (crafting_speed = 1.25) divided by the recipes craft time (energy_required = 3), default being 0.5 (i think) now, the total to craft an item from an...

Re: [MOD 0.13.15+] Surfaces 0.0.7

Hey, with some of the connected entities loaders do not work with them at all, is there any way to fix this?
For example if i build a warehouse, i can use loaders to input but not output from the underground version of it.

Re: [Request] power properties on LuaItemPrototype

correct me if i am wrong but:
energy_usage = "200kW"
works whenever the item is in use and is independent of the crafting speed.

I just use circuit network to smart-control it. For furnace, what i do is i have two counters, one for iron, one for steel. (combinators with input/output the same, multiplied by one), connected to belts with only read enabled, on pulse mode. Then i have another combinator set to multiply the steel ...

No, anything loaded before the particular mod in question, mods will load after their dependencies btw.

Blueprint book deconstruction

Pretty basic idea, allow the blueprint book to also hold a deconstruction planner, this would allow players to have a single item to do anything robot related, basically.

Its data.lua, probably a typo but i'd rather you getting called out then scratching your head for 30 minutes :P atleast to my knowledge anyhow. The info.json and migration files should pretty much be the only jsons. Control.lua are basically scripts, like if you place down a entity on a sand tile it...

The type usually has some information hard coded that is not in lua, i think its in one of the C languages and in no way modular. Not sure though.

Re: [Request] High-friction surface covering for parking

i made a copy of concrete that has a friction of 75, which seems to limit cars to 10km/h and tanks seem to be able to scoot around just fine, roughly the same speed as the car. I seem to be able to turn cars around just fine like so, but there's a config file anyhow where you can change the friction...

Hrm, could that still not be done with regular furnaces? Say you had a belt, with a splitter one with iron ore the other with stone, set a circuit condition on the belts then swap inputs? alternatively, two filtered inserters for a per-furnace setup where you switch inserters. With steel it will be ...
