would be nice to specify the preference when multiple packages of the same mod exist (zipped/unzipped) which one will be loaded

It is now. thank you. also it seems that i cant compile it? it says that trio.h is not found? is there a dependency im missing or something?


we use https://daniel.haxx.se/projects/trio/ for a printf that actually works correctly on every platform (which, amazingly, is not something you can ...

for example, https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/classes/LuaEntity.html#get_logistic_point could trivially be a function with two overloads: fun():LuaLogisticPoint, fun(index):dictionary, and we could in turn generate overload tags for LuaLS to correctly determine which return it got from a given ...

in the mean time, SignalFilter is probably the type you're actually looking for!

If anyone has any suggestions for how I can detect, from the debugger (in TS), that this has occurred (or is likely to occur in a given environment), i can also offer to set the setting for the future.

The runtime classes with index[] operators currently only specify the values returned by that operator, not the key types to use with it. LuaLS tags require a key type for these as well, which i'm currently filling in with special cases.

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/types/FileName.html has `base` in bold, instead of in code tags with underscores

What's the lifetime of an image that is uploaded and then un-referenced?

Could we have a flag for "hidden"/unlisted images in the gallery to not be shown in the image-strip on the mod page, for use in the markdown description/faq pages?

I finally got around to using this some and it's working great! The one thing i'd note is that it is currently impossible to *remove* a homepage or source_url from a mod that already has them, as they won't accept an emptystring as a valid value.

describes the type of positions as array[Vector], but hten has a comment that they have x/y, shouldn't this be array[Position]?

I'm not sure about the exact timing, but this went into the last round of updates (.40 i think), give it a go on the latest update!
