I don't understand the point of threads like this one. Personally, I actually agree with some of your complaints, but just ranting doesn't help anything. It isn't even likely to make you feel any better since most of the replies are going to be unsympathetic.

Did you try explicitly setting hide_from_signal_gui to false?

Maybe even for half filled rockets if I want them to launch automatically?

Found it.

I am trying to diagnose a bug in my Telelogistics mod that seems to show up when some other mod creates a planet (or space-location, or surface...?) called "cube1." It would be much easier to figure out what is going on if I could look at whatever code is creating "cube1" of course. Does anyone know ...

The reason it works for base but not space-age is because - is a "magic character" that Lua uses for pattern matching. Change space_dir to "__space%-age__/graphics/entity/" and it should work.

s6x

If you need your mod to load after Space Age, you can just add space-age as a dependency. You can make it optional with a ? (e.g., "? space-age") if you also want the mod to be usable by vanilla Factorio.

Works great, actually!

Thanks.

This would be nice to have.

It's a table, called mods.

Code: Select all

if (mods["space-age"]) then
-- space age + quality stuff
elseif (mods["quality"]) then
-- quality without space age
else
-- neither one
end

Quality is required for Space Age so if you detect space-age you can assume that quality is also there.

My mod, Void Block , hooks on_chunk_generated to replace almost the entire surface with water/lava/whatever. However, as a consequence, somehow this alters the location where pods land, and they no longer come down at 0,0. This change persists even if the mod is removed.

I ran two tests. The NoMod ...

I have a mod that can do this if you want to give it a try.

Did you remember to add a slot for the burnt item in the reactor itself?

Code: Select all

data.raw["fusion-reactor"]["fusion-reactor"].burner.burnt_inventory_size = 1

s6x

Here is a mod doing something similar, so you have some code to look at.
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/multispoil

s6x

Code: Select all

burner_lab.next_upgrade = nil

s6x

No, a landed pod is a "cargo-pod-container" which is a distinct entity (but looks very similar) to a "cargo-pod" entity.

s6x

A mod to solve this issue for now: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/RocketCargoInsertion

s6x

Yay! We have on_cargo_pod_finished_ascending now.
