Wow that was embarrassingly easy

Thanks a lot! I'm already using notepad ++, but I never noticed I had an extra set of useless { }... Thanks again man

YoloJoe

I'm trying to make my own walls and I used the stone-wall code and replaced the textures. I have put it in item.lua and made a recipe for it. Its a huge ass error, but I guess there is just one small thing that could fix it.. :?:

I'll post the code to just in case ...

I want to move the selection box to fit over my machine, whatever I do with the

Code: Select all

selection_box = {{-4.2, -0.6}, {2, 2.35}},

values the box just seem to get bigger or smaller, how can I simply move it a bit to the right?

YoloJoe

Thanks a lot guys! I think I tried every combination but that one XD

YoloJoe

Hi! :D

I've got my new assembler working now, but I want it to only be able to assemble one thing. (I will only be able to select one thing from the list when I click on my assembler.) I guess I need to create a new category for it? However when I add something like:

{
type = "NewCategory ...

What is what in the collision box?

Code: Select all

collision_box = {{-0.2, -4.5}, {1.7, 2.35}},

I don't understand how the dimensions work

Hey again.

I'm trying to make my own chemical plant and I keep getting this error: Invalid pipe connections specification for offset {0.00000000000, -2.9960....}

I think this is where the error occurs:

{
production_type = "input",
pipe_covers = pipecoverspictures(),
base_area = 10,
base ...

Ok, thanks. I just moved them around myself XD It took be about 2 hours, but its all good now

XD

Its playing all the frames, but the stitching software is putting the images in the wrong order. I have named them "0001.png,0002.png,0003.png,0004.png.....0031.png.....0072.png"

YoloJoe

The software is still putting the images in random order..? The 72 individual images are now called "0000,0001,0002,0003.....0031....0072"

YoloJoe

Do you know what? Its the vertical texture thats fucking things up. Any way to remove it? I dont need it? Also, the pictures are still out of order...

Oh, sorry. My picture is 6x12, so

Code: Select all

width = 246,
      height = 137,
      frame_count = 72,
      line_length = 6,

Still getting error

Code: Select all

Sprite outside of (location) at 154,1859, size 1x1 of 1476x1644

YoloJoe

OK first of: the max size for sprite sheets is 2048x2048 pixels keep that in mind.

If you set the picture/animation in the entity definition you have to set the size of one frame, then the total amount of frames (frames=x), then the number of frames in one line (line_length=x)

Another issue is ...

YoloJoe

Someone heeeelp meeee :( :cry: This shit is twisting my brain way to much xD
It's set to width = 246 and height = 137 in the code, because I started with the steam engine when creating the textures. The steam engine is also set to width = 246 and height = 137, but the only difference is the picture ...

YoloJoe

What is "Image padding" and what does it need to be set to? I think I have it on 1 pixel

YoloJoe

Ok, I have made picture now. Its 1729x1517 and each frame is 246x137. Now the game just returns error:

Code: Select all

 Sprite outside of "(location)" (at 1967, 136, size 1x1 of 1722x1781)

YoloJoe

Ahhhh

now the pic just returns error:

Code: Select all

 Sprite outside of "(location)" (at 1967, 136, size 1x1 of 1722x1781)

YoloJoe

Thanks, but the order is all messed up? I have named the files name1,name2,name3 etc, but both the Stitches website and the SpriteSheetPacker messes up the order.. It goes 1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,20... why?
