I'ts a shame to see this mod and others from this author have seem to have been abandoned.

Thanks to others that have found ways to fix the issues with lower res graphics.

PM'd you the links and i think ive found where the problem may lie
as i said in the pm the pathing seems to reset when it starts burning a new bit of fuel.

I have loaded Stickynotes 2.1.3 into 0.16.24 and hammered it to work

there was quite a few changes and i dont think it looks quite right but it works

info.json
Line 8 change version to "0.16"

prototypes/styles.lua
Line 26 change to parent="frame",
Line 58 change to parent="label",
Line 106 ...

Well here it is. Criticism, Comments, Tips etc are welcome since this is the first mod I have actually written I'd like to know where i stuffed it up

I can't recreate the problem, and also the code that I thought might be causing issues can only run when a path is incomplete.
Maybe the miners is trying to get somewhere but the pathfinding is failing (maybe the destination is blocked by another miner?).
Or maybe another controller somewhere is ...

I had a very similar idea but abandoned it since it was too big. Basically it is executing lua in lua via loadstring. So a player can code any behavior he wants.

I thought about making an API that will allow script to retrieve data or interact with game state in a non-cheaty way. [Also I tried to ...

Ok another update since i've had some time to play a game with the new mod and have found some usability issues, mostly just i'ts "clunkyness"
The graphics, albeit simple, are usable as it stands and i have added a lot of tool-tips to hopefully help

If anyone's interested i should have a release ...

It's probably something I am doing wrong or the derpy biter pathfinding but when i try to manually shift miner using the remote controller the miner moves around 4-8 tiles then stops dead like its finished and that green path line vanishes

No, I think that's a bug with aai-programmable-vehicles ...

Ok another update.. i know but I'm getting excited

Graphic: I think the base might be a bit tall and I'm not really happy with the texture but it's a start

Tech Graphic: - also the same as the item icon

Good news is..... I'm kind of happy with the status of the mod to call it alpha.

There is some graphics - albeit probably crap and I'm open to suggestions / someone more creative to do them better
It doesn't crash the moment you breathe on it
Bad news is there is still no manual or instructions ...

Ah excellent so it wasn't just me.

I'm currently polishing up some graphics for it which has been a fun challenge having never used blender before, granted i have quite a background in 3D design and printing just not rendering.

I'm keen to hear what improvements you had in mind for the UI specifically since this has been quite a ...

Long story...
So i was having a good play with the AII vehicles and AII structures mods and i found myself needing something _more_

to control things how id like would take enourmous amounts of combinator logic. so off i went to find something that could help
i tried microcontroller mod, i tried ...

I have not been able to find another post about this so I've inevitably decided to make my first report.

When typing into a textbox that happens to force a wordwrap the cursor/caret then ends up in a very wrong spot as shown in this short video

Has anyone else seen ...

Excellent mod just one question, how quickly does the code actually execute?
does it run as much as it can during a single tick? eg until os.wait() is called
I'd like to know if it is possible to write out "1 tick" outputs as i have a use that would require being able to send a stream of signals

I also had this and upon a quick look it is looking for the file roboport-base-patch-mk2.png
where-as the file name is actually roboport-base-mk2-patch.png

I have to say i have spent the good portion of the last 3 days furiously studying this gamechanger and looking how to use this for other expansion methods. i must say this is genius.

Now i have it loaded with some other mods, namely FactorioExtended, that allows me to use roboport mk2(huge range ...
