100% chance of something 0.13 related today!

I believe the probability theory works a bit differently

As far as I understand, the circuit network stores not simple abstract numbers. It works on the counts of some real items or virtual signals. Having this in mind it's not so obvious how the train number can be represented.

Or is it fake/troll?

It depends on what is out. If it's about 0.12.35 - yep, it's out. 0.13 still is not

This has been answered already. The developers state that it would take a lot of time to expose the data.raw prototypes to the game-time code properly. So it's is unlikely to be done in the near future.

Floats aren't appropriate for anything. All useful values under the sun can be comfortably expressed with int.
Could you please help me with expressing 1/3 with int? And PI please.
Fixed-point arithmetics can be useful only to increase calculation performance, which is not the case here (or if you ...

The new locomotive is cool!
But what I personally like the most - is the idea of saving all the mods state. For modders having the possibility to use all the Lua constructs would be totally priceless!

Most important question: will potato mod be avaliable for 0.13?
I hope the devs will find some ...

Have anyone tried the Potato mod already?

Thanks a lot! So many things to discover!

I'm hoping to make it something that's changeable in-game; you'd click on the spliter, and then you could adjust the split ratios with up & down arrows. What sort of special coding will I need to set that up? Well... I'm not 100% sure that it is possible. Still you may give it a try, but it will ...

I guess, data.lua should be enough as everything defined in it will be available later on in -updates and -final-fixes

The reason is that currently these two NE mods have conflicting access to the NEConfig.mod variable. Both of them have 'detectmod.lua' scripts and each of them starts with
NEConfig.mod = {}
thus efficiently clearing all the info that have been written there by another mod. The Natural_Evolution ...

I'm glad I could help. You are welcome! Всегда пожалуйста

Something of what I'm going to write you may already know :)

The idea is to get the filled data.raw table containing all the prototypes to be used in the game after all prototypes definition stages.

After the prototype is defined it is assumed to be stored under
data.raw[<type>][<name>]
where ...

For those once involved it's never too late, I believe. It's just a matter of having an interesting project to work at

You must be kidding :D I'm quite a newbie to Factorio (discovered it only since Steam release unfortunately). But you might know how it happens: you start trying to play on Friday evening and then suddenly it's Monday morning :D The thing that helps me a bit is that I'm a programmer IRL so it was ...

I am not sure, but is this update affects steam? I still have 0.12.33 ... Maybe I am missing something?
Try to open game Properties dialog in Steam. There should be a Beta versions tab which will allow you to select experimental Factorio version to download instead of stable 0.12.33. After that ...

I'd highly recommend the JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA with Lua plugin (the Community Edition is completely free and opensource). It provides not only a project management, quick search, but also advanced code-highlighting (like separate styles for global/local variables/fields/closures etc.), a number of ...

At least the things keep moving May the upcoming release preparations go smoothly

Splitter prototypes are in __base__/prototypes/entity/entities.lua. Starting at line 321 (for me) or just search for the "splitter" string.
