Modding/Feature suggestion: rocket-like progress results

I propose an idea of allowing assembling machines to have a result which is not a whole item, but gets added "progress" to it on each craft, like rocket silo works for assembling a rocket (if this was changed in SA I forgot). One use case I can see even in vanilla is Uranium Processing: instead of a ...

Re: 2.0.12 Search option in MODS is non obvious

Absolutely agree, I find it confusing too. The mod list is on the left and the mod info is on the right, but the search is tucked all the way in the top-right, which is why I missed it for quite a while. I'm used to the close button being there when it comes to windowed design, and I think the ...

Re: [raiguard][2.0.7]Crash when loading a mod with invalid file paths

I would imagine it's like a missing file error, which does work fine when the mod name is correct. Just a guess.

Re: [raiguard][2.0.7]Crash when loading a mod with invalid file paths

Ah, I should specify that I use Steam via flatpak. I have zenity on my main system but I doubt it's exposed to the flatpak environment and probably isn't included in there. Still, I would expect the game to perform filename sanitization and use the usual mod loading error screen to indicate such ...

[posila][2.0.7]Crash when loading a mod with invalid file paths

Encountered while updating my mod to 2.0, a typo in the mod name in a image path caused the game to crash. Expected to have a dialogue that says that the file path is invalid.

Add ability to specify an animation for the working state of the reactor

Currently, the reactor prototype only allows a sprite to be specified for the glow. This has affected my ability to make a mod before, namely ReactorDansen. Now I want to make a mod with a fusion reactor with plasma stream visible and I would like to animate it a bit but I can only a static sprite ...

variations, max_speed property description says that max_speed is mandatory if max_speed is present. Probably min_speed was meant there.

Re: Small documentation improvement requests

A recent edit (https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?title=Types/ItemProductPrototype&diff=188871&oldid=188205) added a "Can't be negative" note to a field/protperty that has a type of unsigned integer. Because unsigned integers can't be negative, I think that this note is redundant here and just ...

[1.1.53] Links not opening/opening incorrectly on Linux in Steam version

When opening links from Prototype Explorer or any other link, it takes a lot of time until it is open in browser. By "very long" I mean a minute or two. Opening exact same link from command-line using xdg-open is instant. This problem can be worked around by choosing Steam Linux Runtime as a ...

"trigger" property is listed in table of contents, but not in mandatory or optional properties section.
