Re: Friday Facts #395 - Generic interrupts and Train stop priority

Regarding the generic interrupts, I'm not sure I love the showcased implementation, often my trains will be called "[iron-icon] iron drop-off" to have the fanciness of the icon, but the readability / searchability of text. Would it be possible to implement a basic wildcard, for example &q...

Re: Make "character_maximum_following_robot_count_bonus" works for standard entity and better documentation

Thanks for your reply.
Ok, I understand that the limit applies only to character. But I don't understand, what this bonus field is used for ? I've never seen it different from 0. Would it be possible to add extra words in the API doc about it's usage ?

Make "character_maximum_following_robot_count_bonus" works for standard entity and better documentation

TL;DR Better documentation of the LuaControl field "character_maximum_following_robot_count_bonus" in the LuaControl API page, and if it is relevant have a "maximum_following_robot_count_bonus" field that could be used on any kind of entity. What ? The LuaControl field "cha...

Have "following_robots" field on standard entities

TL;DR Make the field "following_robots" works for standard entities, not only for characters. What ? The LuaControl field "following_robots" needs to be called on an object that is a character, but from a script, I can create combat robots and by setting the source parameter, ma...

[0.18.22] Wrong battery indicator in a vehicle with equipment grid

Hi, When you have some batteries in the equipment grid of a vehicle (using Vehicle Grid mod or anything else that add equipment grid to vehicles) and you get in the vehicle, the battery indicator (bottom right, near weapons) is the one of your power armor. Seems to me that it should be the one of th...

[0.18.22] Impact resistance not applied before energy shield in vehicle

Hi, Thanks for your great job ! As stated in the wiki , resistances are applied before depleting the energy shield. Seems to me it should be the same when using an energy shield in a vehicle. It does not works, at least with impact resistance. To reproduce, modify the tank prototype to add an equipm...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

All fixed now. If you're interested, the issues were nothing to do with the aircraft mod. The crash was caused by the vehicle being replaced with a composite version while it had a negative speed. You can now bail out of vehicles going backwards at high speeds without worry of a (game) crash. The i...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

I had a crash. I was using the Miner To Resource Zone blueprint to send a Flying Fortress (Aircraft mod) to a parking zone. When getting in the aircraft, going few tiles away and getting out (to test if the aircraft get back to the parking zone), I got the crash. I also had issues with a Hauler park...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

They are not bugs. Zone scanners are just to locate and count zone tiles, not scan the tile location. Tile scanners are designed just to find the physical contents of the tile, however, I can see that it would be useful to also get the unit type id and unit id so I will consider adding those as out...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

I've asked an evolution to the maintainer of Satellite Uplink Station mod. He's been quite fast to do it!
Now, you have access to an Unit Remote Controller and a Zone Planner in the toolbar while uplinked.
Thanks to him ;)

Is it possible to make ion cannon count as satellite, to increase launched satellites counter and to avoid empty rocket message ?

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

Zone scanner does not output vehicle id signals when a vehicle stands on a zone (a tile scanner on that spot outputs the zone and vehicle).

Tile scanner outputs the vehicle item instead of the vehicle id signal.

Bugs or intended behavior ?
