It turns out that Space Age modifies the assembling machine categories in base-data-updates stage which makes some items not appear in the list of recipes in the modded assembling machine (more info on https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=121020 ).

To fix this, I added the following in ...

And should there be a way to check whether the space age mod is active or not to condition this modification?


Check the feature flags: https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/types/FeatureFlags.html .


Thanks. That worked. I'll respond in the mod thread as well in case someone else is looking ...

Space-age changes the crafting categories for the assembling machine 3 during one of its data stages. If you don't want those categories you need to change them again after it finishes.


Thank you for the quick response! Would data final fixes be a good place to do this?

And should there be a ...

Hello,

I have made a post under the modding forums https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=119670
to describe a problem I've noticed that only occurs in Space Age and not Factorio 2.0.

Since it hasn't received any responses I was wondering if there's anything else I could provide and ...

Hello,

I'm not sure if there is something extra that must be done but one of the mods I had made doesn't show all the recipes to be assembled in Space Age, but it shows them in Factorio 2.0.

I tried this on a new game just to be sure it's not a save issue, ran unlock all research technologies as ...

Thanks for the report, I find simply clicking the resource and setting the exact values you want to be much better than the spray option. The spray option exists from way way way back in early Factorio and kind of isn’t useful.


Thanks for the tip! I didn't know that we could click on the node ...

Hello,


What did you do?
I tried to place a crude oil node using the cursor in Map Editor interface, with the yield set to 800.

What happened?
The place crude oil is 0%. I kept holding the left-click and holding and still the yield increase is extremely slow.
Note: The right-click to decrease ...

Can you post a screenshot of the "allowed modules" tooltip that shows all the other modules but not productivity? (Don't crop it, show the whole screen)

Hello,

I've been trying to enable productivity module on a recipe I made.
Following the new Factorio 2.0 / Space Age changes I added:
allow_productivity = true

However, this doesn't seem to do anything. I tried this in an existing save as well as a new save.

yes I saw that but only after I practiced a bit more.

Thanks

Actually, never mind.

I found out that it's so much easier to copy from base / core lua files in Factorio folder and modify things.

Cheers!

For the recipe, you need to copy data.raw["recipe"]["assembling-machine-3"].


Thanks! it started showing now, however none of the extended properties seem to have applied such as crafting speed.

I looked up the crafting_speed by using Ctrl+Shift+F when looking at assembling machine 3 and added ...

You need:

1. An entity ✔️
2. A recipe ✔️
3. An item ❌

Make an item by coping data.raw["item"]["assembling-machine-3"].


Hi DaveMcW.

I added this at the end

local myitem = util.table.deepcopy(data.raw["item"]["assembling-machine-3"])

Hello everyone,

I just started looking into modding factorio.

I'm trying to do a simple thing:

local myAssemblyMachine = util.table.deepcopy(data.raw["assembling-machine"]["assembling-machine-3"])

myAssemblyMachine["name"] = "assembling-machine-test"
myAssemblyMachine["crafting_speed"] = 5 ...
