Re: [1.1.76] Incompatible fixed_recipe is ignored
A solution has thus far eluded me. If I alter the recipe for a rocket-part with a water ingredient, the silo shows that no recipes are available. This is where I am at: local rocketSilo = table.deepcopy(data.raw["rocket-silo"]["rocket-silo"]) rocketSilo.fluid_box = { { production...

Re: [1.1.76] Incompatible fixed_recipe is ignored
Does this mean I should abandon my attempt to alter the "rocket-part" recipe to include fluids?

Re: hiding the "expected resources"
Unfortunately, the miner also shows when it can or cannot be placed. It would need to show red yet be place-able for "hiding" resources to work. I solved this problem by filling every empty space with "Earth" resource, which was also invisible. So that was able to work-around &q...

Dang it, you called it right. I doubt it is likely but maybe this element can be hidden?

efficiently cover all empty areas with ore
The goal is to cover the whole map, except for other ore patches with a mine-able Earth. This code does work but makes my M1 Mac beachball-spin for about 5 seconds when starting a map. Can anything be done to make this more efficient? local earthResource = table.deepcopy(data.raw["resource"...

can multiple ores occupy a single single tile?
I've created an ore "earth" which is infinitely mine-able and covers everything, even other ore patches. But it seems that this means that you can't mix ores. If I place a miner over an iron patch, the miner only ever mines the top layer of earth and never mines the iron patch "beneat...

Re: make this GUI element respect mine-ability? Or hide it entirely?
One more thing- every space is covered in "earth" ore, making every space mine-able. You can now put a mining drill anywhere script.on_event(defines.events.on_chunk_generated, function(event) for x = event.area.left_top.x + 0, event.area.right_bottom.x - 1 do for y = event.area.left_top.y ...

Re: make this GUI element respect mine-ability? Or hide it entirely?
Another wrinkle in what you describe is the same scanning can be done with a miner in hand. Even being able to place them off ore, their placement gui for expected resources will be the next snag. au contraire! local plain = "basic-solid"; local deep = "basic-solid-deep"; local ...

https://i.imgur.com/SdsC6eY.png I'm working on a mod that hides ores from the map and from the "first person" perspective. (See Bland Ores mod) Unfortunately, you can still manually scan the ground with the cursor to reveal otherwise invisible ore. Is there anyway to prevent this? I would...

dying_trigger_effect: if a unit dies on a certain tile, replace that tile with another
I'm trying to suss this out: if a unit dies on a `garbageFill` or a `sacrificezoneFill`, it should replace that tile with a landfill tile. I haven't so far been able to find the correct combination of collision masks. Perhaps some other mechanism exists? local CollisionMaskUtil = require("__cor...

I don't want to alter the idle lab animation, so I'm not sure why I'd alter the `off_animation`? I only want to change the lights when it's researching.
