Hi,

Sorry to answer only now, I'm watching the other feeds (mods.factorio.com & github) and since there was almost nothing happening here I was spending less :/
(Ideally, an email alert system could be set up on mods.factorio.com and forums.factorio.com ^^)

So, yes it run as much as it can during ...

Hi,

I am working on the mod Computer core and I have a problem with the element "text-box" :
"Copy / Past" function does not work well, which makes complex script development difficult (New lines are skipped)

I guess you're already aware of this problem, but I was wondering if there was a way to ...

New version done,

Thank you, so I'm waiting for 0.16 impatiently (but it was already the case ^^)

Initially I was trying with this code (And to be sure, I try again):

car.passenger = car.surface.create_entity({
name = "player",
force = player.force,
position = car.position
})
car.passenger.shooting_state = {
state = defines.shooting.shooting_enemies,
position = position
}

But it does ...

Thank you for your return, but not work :(

I tried :

car.passenger.update_selected_entity(position)
game.print(car.passenger.selected.type)
-- result: "unit-spawner"

game.print(car.passenger.shooting_state)
-- result: table:0x00... {state=0, position={y=0,x=0}}

car.passenger.shooting_state ...

Hi,

I'm working on a mod onboard_computer and I would like to allow a non-player entity to attack a position.

Ex:

-- car is an entity type="car" (car, tank...)
-- player is the player who started the script

car.passenger = car.surface.create_entity({
name = "player",
force = player.force ...

Hi,
I have the same problem : I'm trying to create a mod that allows to automate vehicles (car, tank) and I can't get them to attack :/

Did you find a solution ?

I tried :

car.passenger = car.surface.create_entity({
name = "player",
force = player.force,
position = car.position
})

Hello,
Out of curiosity, I look at the mod code.
I propose some modifications:

In the "detect_range" function, replace:

out_arr[v.name] = {pos = v.position}

By :

if out_arr[v.name] == nill then
out_arr[v.name] = {}
end
if v.type == "resource" then
out_arr[v.name][#out_arr[v.name] + 1 ...

Hello,
I tested a small mining program and at the end of an ore I have the following error, while there is still 1 ore and not 0.

Cool, and fast

But, I have a small bug on my side: When I place the drone, it seems to be changing in construction bot (graphic) and goes in the nearest roboport
(No other mod installed)

Good mod but you must add some functionality.
I was a fan of the computercraft mod of Minecraft, but in factorio there are already systems to automate almost everything. So we have to do more than is already possible ;)

I might have some ideas:
- A flying robot for fast travel and transport
- A ...
