Thanks, I've fixed that link.

I would recommend VersepellesHardStorage if it gets updated! My mod was originally meant to keep items ...

Thanks dudes, that was it!

I think you're trying to set the new ore position before you've found the current ore position? Or adjacentEntity is limited to searching for other uranium-ore entities, when it should just be looking for an empty tile?

Something about the find_entities_filtered parameters is my guess. Try just the ...

I'm thinking it'll be something like: Tiberium Ore -> Liquid Tiberium -> [Other ores/coal/stone/crude oil/water]

Great! I like this.

How do I get the position of the ore piece that I'm working on?

Try lower-case p instead of upper-case P? "ore.position"

I did indeed look at transport belts! Although I couldn't find any definitive reason the belts rendered on the correct layer while my pallets wouldn't. The only working difference I could see was the entity type and that the belts are an animation while the pallet is just a sprite. Now that I think ...

I've found for global variables that you can do on_init, but when loading a game, it's different - so I used this code and it helped.

function when_loaded_mods_changed(data)
global.your_tiberium_list = game.surfaces[1].find_entities_filtered{name= "your_tiberium_entity_name_here"}
end
script.on ...

So I got everything to work as intended, except for the pallet's entity image always rendered over the spilled items. This is likely because of the collision mask I mentioned earlier - I made sure the pallet picture was a low priority, which did nothing.

In conclusion, spilling items onto the ...

I was able to get items to spill out, and in their correct values (which was interesting) for a single item. I'm working now to produce all the items placed on the pallet, position them correctly, and to not collide with the pallet entity.

I'm not getting errors from the inventory array for-loop ...

Thanks Kikker,

The intended design is much like you suggested: single items placed for each stack in the inventory (assuming that items dropped in the world are 1/4 a grid cell, allowing up to 8 items to be dropped - which is the size of the pallet inventory). I don't mind the redundancy because of ...

I've made a 2x2 pallet storage as a modification of the wooden chest, and I'd like to have the item stacks in the inventory to show up in the world on top of the pallet.

Some of the code I'm starting with:


--control.lua

global.pallets = global.pallets

function place_item_on_pallet(self, item ...
