You have a table somewhere in data.raw which expects a string (or possibly some other type mismatch). The game then fails to load prototypes due to that. Where is the question, and the error is not helpful. Usually the game tells the prototype in which the error occured, but sometimes stuff like ...

The issue here is that the GUI is styled incorrectly in such case, the left border is cut off sharply instead of having a gradient. Attached is a picture of the inventory frame when in rocket at the top and a properly styled (modded) frame at the bottom.

LuaStyle::clicked_vertical_offset is uint32, but documented as int32. Prototype docs are correct.
LuaStyle *_padding and *_margin properties are int16, but documented as int32. Prototype docs are correct, except for ScrollPaneStyleSpecification properties extra_..._when_activated ...

Thank you!

You can, you can hook on_gui_opened so it instead does whatever you want under any conditions you want, the end of that thread is where we arrived at the way we liked, adapting that looks easy.

This doesn't work for mod settings, settings menu is not a gui you can interact with in control stage ...

You cannot.

You can also assign a custom status to the entity, when it is selected/opened by a player

That makes sense. For my usecase it matters to be able to read default value, but i'll hack my way around that

Doesn't seem like that's possible. You could find all entities on the surface and disable them with https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/classes/LuaEntity.html#disabled_by_script which would handle most of the cases. Pollution would still dissipate naturally, but you can save the values, clear ...

"Craft" here is incorrect terminology since it counts not just crafting, but also mining and offshore pump. This is fine in vanilla (though plates are smelted, not crafted, so it'd be more correct as well), but can be worse with mods, if another means of production is intended. "Produce" works for ...

Creating a new line gui element for some reason sets horizontally_stretchable on its style to true. This is probably relevant, though technically not a bug, but i don't see a good reason why this isn't just a property on the default style instead of what seems like an in-engine exception, given it ...

Playing py mods and noticing that it has a bunch of custom inputs that seem like are supposed to be hidden. Not sure what these are used for, and maybe some of them have an appropriate linked_game_control, but doesn't seem like that's the case for all of them. изображение.png
I also have a mod ...

lua5.2 numbers are iee754 doubles, which can represent exact integers up to 53 bits.


The docs should still say it is uint64 regardless because that's what it is. And in fact, there's even a type MapTick which is a uint64, and it is documented on uint64 page that lua cannot represent it. Its ...

Didn't look much into your code, but if you just need an entity to not be minable, use this https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/cla ... nable_flag
There is a lot of data entities have and copying all of it is just not viable

+1, for some entities it is possible to use another prototype (with the side effects that they have), but for others its just a no. Generators, units, etc.

That is correct, you don't get on_gui_opened event for entities that don't have a gui. You could detect it with a custom input event, but it will function incorrectly (triggers on click rather than on release (or the other way around)).
The simplest rotatable entities i could think of are: storage ...

You can change map settings with the editor (/editor in chat). There's also a mod for that if you want to keep achievements. Then use https://mods.factorio.com/mod/regenerate-terrain

Items that are not in the inventory are marked in a different color.
background color in the GUI.jpg
For me the contrast is not enough.
Is there any way to change the background color or change the brightness?


It part of the GUI style. You can see the name of the style by activating the gui ...

You are adding 1 to dX and dY for some reason, which makes distance calculation wrong.

I don't see what the issue is
