[2.0.20] SimulationDefinition's generate_map=true produced a black screen

What did you do? I was adding a new tip entry. When I set checkboard = false and generate_map = true, the simulation screen doesn't generate a map. It only has a black screen, an unchart map? I tried force to chart it in the init code block. That didn't fix it. What happened? I see black screen. Wha...

attack_target_mask and ignore_target_mask for other player combat entities

I'm trying to add an invisible unit. Those 2 masks work great on turrets. However, there is no way to make that work for player combat entities, e.g any friendly "unit" types, spidertron, gun, combat-robot etc. Friendly unit and spidertron can auto target the invisible unit. Adding trigger...

Re: [2.0.17] Gleba enemies stay frozen when about to attack

Just for a note. It may be related to the unit pathing bug since 1.1.50. The bug ticket holder left before they could fix the bug.

Re: [2.0.11] Unit commands seems not behaving properly.

I added a few more tests to test other command. Flee and build base failed too. Using compound command with wandering, then go to location work fine.

Here are the updated tests.

[StrangePan] [2.0.11] Unit commands seems not behaving properly.

In test case 1, the group does "attack area" command, but they are not attacking. The attack area has a rocket silo. The group went to the target area and then hit moving_state.stale . They did not attack the rocket silo and the group completed the command as "success" in on_ai_c...

Allow "unit" type to teleport cross-surface

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/classes/LuaControl.html#teleport Only players, cars, and spidertrons can be teleported cross-surface. May you add "unit" type support? I workaround it by destroying existing unit and recreating with the unit with same health on the other surface. Doing s...

Re: [Preview] Mod Portal: Weekly Highlights

defines.command.attack_area completes prematurely?

My mod uses defines.command.attack_area command. I noticed that the attack command seems finish prematurely. Like the biters attack a few time and the task is marked as finished. Majority of the buildings in the area are still standing. :?: :?: Here is how it looks in action. https://www.youtube.com...

Re: [Oxyd] [1.1.50] Biters getting stuck way more often compared to .49

AntiElitz's attachments are from vanilla build.

You can take a look his "bu greport stuck biters.zip" and other attachment.

The screencap was taken from his "bu greport stuck biters.zip" save. That save has replay. But it needs 1.1.56 build.

What did you do? I tried to run game.surface[1].request_to_generate_chunks({0,0}, 512) while working on my mods. What happened? That code ran, but the map generator get stuck and using significant resource which make the game not playable. What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious ...

Allow selecting both category and tag on top nav.

The core functionality is already there. The UI just needs some changes.

There are too many noise from the mod packs when I only want to view content from a tag. :D

If the expansion has some mechanic to change max health and damage mulitplier for entities during runtime, that would be able to reduce the prototype counts from my mods. :D

lol. It seems related to Clion's Redirect Input. The same build seems runs fine without it.

That option works fine on 1.1.80 build tho.
