It seems strange to me too, but thank you for trying.



That's happening to me, I'm amazed at how old the post is.

I added the allow_decomposition, allow_intermediates, and allow_as_intermediate properties to the recipes, but it doesn't work. Those properties are set to true by default, but I ...

Thank you for your reply


What happens if you have only 1 compressed iron and 1 compressed gears in your inventory? Can belts be made then?

In the first case, transport ...

Context
The idea behind MOD is to create recipes that “compact” and “decompact” items. Compacting is done by a machine, and decompressing is done by the same machine, but also by the player with their hands.

The problem
There is no problem when creating one of the compacted objects.
This can be ...

You were absolutely right, the ignored_by_stats option was the problem.

I thought that the ignored_by_stats option was only used for manufacturing statistics, I didn't understand that.

Thanks for the clarification

The idea behind this MOD is to create an object, entities, and others. I want the recipes to be affected by the productivity module, but it is not creating them; it counts them as creating, but does not create them.

I suppose the translator, my English, and my explanation are so poor that the problem is unclear.
I prefer to believe that, rather than have no one from Wube or the members of this forum see this and think that everything is fine.

2025-11-21 still no solution found.

Maybe it's because you didn't remove the hidden property from the entity, or because mining doesn't return an item.

I'm not sure, but you can start there.

I would like to help you more, but your code is not functional.

Thank you for the observation. English is not my native language.




I have created alternative recipes to create the items, but for some reason the intermediate products are not working.

I am attaching photographic evidence and test code showing the problem.

Note the number of transport belts ...

Since you have worked with other languages, you surely understand the basic concepts of programming, so I will get straight to the point.

In Lua, variables do not have a specific type, so you must be careful with values and take advantage of that in your code.
Functions can be declared in two ...

Hello, it's been almost a month since my last post.

I was hoping to have an answer by now, but I still don't know where the error is or if it's a bug.

Today I downloaded version 2.0.72 and the error is still there.

If I need to create another separate post, I will if no one responds, because I ...

Hello, it's me again.
Yesterday I was updating the MOD that uses this code, and I was surprised to find that it doesn't work.

After carefully reviewing it, I found the reason.
It works with only iron plates : Yes

Thanks for the information, I didn't know that property worked that way.

I tried it and it keeps the animation going, but regardless of whether or not it has power.

I tried an electrical interface, but it doesn't have connections for the red and green cables.

The roboport continues to win.

What you mean is...
It only works if the entity prototype has a GUI?

I can only find two entities that meet the requirements I'm looking for (Radar and Roboport):
1. The animation is infinite from the moment it is created (without player intervention).
2. It allows red and green cables to ...

I have a GUI that I want to open with the Radars.
When I try to open the radar GUI, the on_gui_opened event is not triggered.


script.on_event({
defines.events.on_gui_opened
}, function(event)
game.players[event.player_index].print("Event: Actived")
end)


What am I doing wrong?
How do I fix ...

This is what I need.

Thank you very much.

Seeing your response, it's possible that I didn't explain myself correctly.

I want to change the sound when selecting one of the options displayed.


I am already changing the style of the dropdown.


But, I still appreciate your response.

The following is the last code I tried, but it doesn ...

I tested your code and you're right.
Perhaps you should use another event.

on_equipment_inserted

Try it and let me know if it works for you. I'll be waiting to hear from you.

Hello, I am creating an interface and would like to customize the selection sound.

I created the custom dropdown style.

width = 282 + 32
