How would I make this code work with optional dependencies?

I've gotten a suggestion to add Crux chests to a mod I have made that allows you to either put Logistic system's contents and prerequisites into Logistic robotics, or simply make it so that Logistic system is cheaper, these modes toggleable by a startup setting. The "make cheaper" part wor...

Re: Can you test new versions without publishing it on the portal?

I'll try again.

Edit: I don't know what I did differently, but it worked this time. sorry for being an inconvenience.

Edit, again: actually, that's exactly what happened, PI-C. Found the error.

Can you test new versions without publishing it on the portal?

I want to update my mod, but I don't want to have it public so that, in case of any bugs, no one will update to the buggy version, and also I don't like going through the trouble of releasing a new version. How could I test my mod? simply putting it in the mods folder and updating the mod list doesn...

Re: Get an error with attempting to read a setting

I've received a suggestion for it asking to add another mod's tech (crux chests) to it. How would I go about adding more technologies? redefine tech to the new tech, add your code to it, repeat that with the other tech, and disable and hide the techs? I don't really know what half this code does, be...

Re: Get an error with attempting to read a setting

Thanks, this has been a great help. The setting type is startup, it's a string setting. The settings tutorial didn't separate the methods for each type, so I used that. The code for removing a technology I found on the forums, on a 3-year old post. I looked for a way to check if the technology has a...

Get an error with attempting to read a setting

I have been trying to make a mod to either move all effects from the logistic system tech to logistic robotics, or simply remove utility science pack as both a prerequisite and needed pack, and change the count from 500 to 150, with these modes interchangeable via settings. I get an error I had gott...

Re: Factorio website thought of as insecure

It no longer claims it is insecure, but I'll tell you (along the lines of it, I don't really remember) what it says:
The website server failed to respond with a code it needs to prove legitimacy.

Factorio website thought of as insecure

When I try to enter all factorio sites, my browser (Microsoft edge, I know I should use chrome) claims that all sites, except the main one (factorio.com) are insecure/malware. This has only occured today, and on other computers. I have not seen any malicious things occurring, just giving a heads up.

Re: Get an error when attempting to add things to bobinserters

What should I do then? Contact bob to ask for permission, and also ask how I could add new technology to the list? I've replaced the mod files with an empty folder, just in case. I have not copied the control folder, instead just tried to see how it worked, and added some (annoying to make) tables i...

Re: How to change other mod's research?

thanks! sorry, i've never made a mod before, so i just assumed redefining the technology would overwrite the old one.

How to change other mod's research?

I have been developing a mod to modify bob's adjustable inserters mod to make the tier two technologies go after Logistics 2 instead of Logistics 3, as it is more useful then. This is my first time using the Lua language. I made it dependent on bob's inserters to have my code override it, made the d...
