I'll be honest with you: I have absolutely no idea why the update script thought that the topic was updated..
However, I added a couple of new checks to the script to prevent this. Please do tell me if another topic keeps sending out wierd notifications!

Just go to http://factoriomods.zinals.nu/index.php/auth/login. Login with your email + password (or click the "I lost/didn't receive my password" to get a new password).
On the next screen you can unsubscribe from a mod and also select what type of event you want to listen to:

Adding an invalid autoplace_control to a MapGenSettings object (MapGenSettings.autoplace_controls["NAME"]) causes the program to hang and rapidly increase in RAM size (so much that my whole computer hang for a while)

This code (from my WIP mod) produced the hang/error:

function SurfaceData.create ...

I was already in the progress of updating the layout of all the buttons & windows

Version 0.1.3 Released

Yeah, they're in the data.lua stage. I have several config options that affect prototype data; not sure how they could be handled by a mod such as this.
Sadly, not possible. A mod is not loaded at that stage... So no entity definitions :?

Version 0.1.2 Released
See changelog in the first post ...

Very neat! Even though it looks like it can't handle prototype data, it's still potentially quite nice for the remainder of config options.
I'll look into making Orbital Ion Cannon's relevant settings compatible with this.
Great!

About prototypes.. Aren't they initialized before all mods (in the ...

Note: I'm not sure if I should release this as a tool or a mod, since it's both a tool and mod..

Config Editor

An In-Game Configuration Editor for mods

Config Editor is a Remote Interface mod for Factorio which creates an in-game configuration editor for other mods.

Making a config.lua file to ...

If you are logged in and you create/reply to a discussion then subscribe to that mods discussion.
This shouldn't be to hard.. I'll see what I can do.

This could be further expanded with even more changes. By automatically subscribing to "just" that discussion if your user name matches your mod ...

Another update!
The "Edit Subscription" button will now open a small window to edit the options for that mods subscription (instead of displaying the whole subscription list).

EDIT:
I think I found the cause for Bug #7.
The mod portal's API seems to be a bit unstable.. Sometimes the server doesn't ...

#7
I'm actually not sure why this happens. I've also received updates without any visual difference..
The "New Release" email should only be sent if the number of releases is different from my local cache.. Perhaps a reupload of a release caused this?

#8
Fixed. (A typo in the code)

#9?
I ...

Nexela wrote:Feature Idea - replace [subscribe to mod] with [edit subscription] if you are subscribed to a mod.

Added in the newest script update. Currently the popup just navigates to the manage page, but I'll add a small popup window to edit subscribe settings per mod.

Nice and smooth now.

login - I noticed there is a button to log in but it requires a password and I don't see this anywhere. I was able to add a few mods without having to re enter my email / activate but after time or possible because I closed the mods.factorio site I had to re-activate through ...

Bug #5
This should now be fixed, if it's not then I might have to add a delay to when the image is actually centered.

Bug #4 - Fix
It seems all thumbnails are stored as .png files while the original can be something different (like .jpg).
I've made a little workaround to get the correct ...

Bug #3
Fixed. Images are now centered and will stay in the middle of the screen (Also added a dimmer effect on the background).

Bug #4
I'm unable to fix this since it's a problem with the mod portal itself. (The original image doesn't exist)
I believe that whenever an image is uploaded, two ...

Bug #1
Fixed. I actually forgot that you could auto install scripts using the .user.js extension.

Bug #2 [/size]
The scripts didn't take into account that multiple mods could be listed at the same time.
Fixed in the new version (attachments to the first post are updated). The script will now ...

Well I suppose I will take the plunge and give this a try.
I would appreciate it!

Do note that this workaround is still a work-in-progress.
It works as it should (at least for me) but I'm still adding new functionality to it all the time.

I would love to get some suggestions on how to develop ...

Hello everyone!

The mod portal doesn't officially support email notification on updated mods/discussions (yet), so I decided to create a little workaround.

I have a web server setup to pool information on any subscribed mod. Whenever a mod/discussion changes an email notification will be sent out ...

I second this idea/suggestion.
Trying to keep up with all the mod discussions on the mod portal is really annoying without any kind of notification.
Having to manually jump around the different mods to find a new/updated suggestion is really inconvenient.

I found it so inconvenient that I actually ...

What an awesome mod!
So much functionality yet quite easy to use.
I was working on something similar before but I gave up xD

Yeah my new heavy armor told his turrets where to go :) Although it highlighted how pointless regular bullets become against players with armor..

Anyways I was wondering if ...

Sorry about that.. Forgot to replace ' and " characters.. They mess up the HTML page.. That's why it looked like that. Fixed.
