The mod doesn't know whose computer it is running on--it runs on everyone's simultaneously. There is no "me", there is only player 1, player 2, etc. The mod can receive events every time any player does something like open a GUI or press a key, with a link to the player that did it. There...

Mod scripts run at the game level, and execute the same code on every player's machine. They can access every player's data all the time. To find every player's characters, use: for index, player in pairs(game.players) do local character = player.character if character ~= nil then -- Do stuff with ...

This is included in multiplayer games. How can I get it? thank you

Yes, but similar to a player trying to change the setting during a running game, (as far as I know) it will not persist between different games/saves.

Thank you. I see

The global table cannot be used between different save files. Any “settings” of that nature that you need to persist between different games, you’ll need to use actual settings for (https://wiki.factorio.com/Tutorial:Mod_settings). Note that the user will need to set these from the main menu in ord...

What table? There is the "global" table available to each mod that is saved and load from the save file. You can store things you need need to persist there. There are some limitations, though. There was a discussion about it not too long ago: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=2...

I mean, when I start a new game, I automatically read the data of the table

No, that's the problem with (ab)using different entity types for unintended purposes. Such tooltips are hardcoded into the game. Thank you. I don't know anything about this. Although this does not affect the use, it always feels imperfect. However, I found that some mods can add some "false in...

I did end up making a car-type container mod if you want to experiment with it. I think I left filtering enabled. It would be possible to make a 1x1 grid-snapped version, I suppose. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/shipping-containers Can I give you a suggestion? Can the following information be hidde...

OK, I fully support you

Or can this setting be changed by modifying a parameter? Which friend can tell me that I can modify it myself. Thank you

I know that the original intention of developers is to make the starting area have various minerals, but please let them have a certain distance. Of course, this is only my personal idea. Whether to adopt it or not depends on you, but I don't think this change will have a bad impact on the game

Ooo, I like that logistical challenge. :twisted: That aside, do you happen to have any of the generation sliders for ores and starting area set to anything other than default? (Just checking! :D ) I have tested that modifying the size and quantity of minerals can not change whether the minerals in ...

It's the same reason they give for not filtering LuaInventory objects, and for not connecting certain things to the circuit network. It's always a cost-benefit equation, based on the number of chests in a typical game, versus the number of players who will actually use the filtering feature, versus...

In the initial area, there is a great chance that the minerals will be connected together, so we don't like it very much. It's best to have a certain distance between them

action = { { type = "direct", action_delivery = { { type = "projectile", projectile = "anti-material-rifle-ammo-3", starting_speed = 3, direction_deviation = 0.02, range_deviation = 0.02, max_range = 50, source_effects = { { type = "create-explosion", entity_...

a[1]["b"] or a[1].b both work. Thank you, but it still reported an error attempt to index field'?'(a nil value) The content of the original script is as follows: action = { { type = "direct", action_delivery = { { type = "projectile", projectile = "anti-material-r...

There are two layers of braces in a table. How can I get its value?
For example:

a = {
{
b = 5
},
}

a.b = 5 ?? That's wrong,How can I express it?
