TL;DR
Currently mods are limited to ~2/3rd of screen height. Exceeding this height breaks rendering.


What ?
On https://imgur.com/a/8s8OHd8 you can see the todo list rendered without the buttons at the bottom (it should look like this: https://mods-data.factorio.com/assets ...

It means for every translation that I want to have changeable I have to switch from `{"todo.some_thing"}` to `{todo.translate("some_thing")}`. Which is inconsistent.
So ideally I switch for everything..

But thanks for the input. I'll go this way then

Hi,
I'm the author of the ToDo Lis t mod.
There is a request to enable a quest log mode to have everything more RPG like.

I'm now trying to understand how to implement this the best way.

1. provide a second mod with the changed translations
+ easy to toggle for players
- lot of overhead
- hard to ...

Follow up question.
If I use the dialog it actually blocks UI rendering. Is there a way to programmatically close it again?
Because otherwise the user has to manually proceed for every step.
Or am I missing something?

Hey :)
Thanks for the input. Somehow I still don't get full notifications for everything here in the forum :/


Hi there! It's me, the noob coder :). From a quick look at the explanation page i have a few thought that are hopefully useful insigts into how other people code. If not feel free to ...

Awesome, thanks
I'll try that out.

Hi,

we ware playing a game that only uses Angels Refining (and some other mods, but nothing else from Angels and nothing from Bobs).

I'm currently looking into using the byproducts of the refining process and need Saline Water to create Slurry. It seems it should have been enabled with Water ...

Okay, thanks.

I was afraid this was the answer
Off to creating a scheduler and some locking logic then

I somehow missed the notification for posts in this thread -.-

I completely rewrote faketorio by now. It is now running inside of Factorio and thus you can do whatever you want/could do anyway.

Automated testing basically removes the long and error prone phase of testing everything in your mod ...

Hi,
I have a rather long running / command that raises some click events (script.raise_event).
These events cause some UI elements to be drawn, created, closed, ...

As everything happens in one command/function it looks like there is no UI update until the very end.

I would like to see the steps ...

0.17 changelog wrote:Added LuaGameScript::table_to_json() and LuaGameScript::json_to_table().

Awesome, thank you

Would it be possible to also expose the base64 encoder/decoder in a similar way?
This would make exchanging mod state extremely easy (blueprint like).

Thanks!

Hey,

thanks for the explanation. I know how mod-gui works and I'm actively using it.
The question is: Is anyone else using it?

Hi,

I'm currently working on a library/framework to make automated testing for Factorio mods possible and easy (inspired by the stdlib project). You can find the first version here: https://github.com/JonasJurczok/faketorio

The question I have is:
Is anyone using mod-gui for the UI in their mods ...

Awesome, thank you

Hi,

I created my first mod https://mods.factorio.com/mods/JasonMiles/Todo-List

I wanted to add images to the mod. Upon submitting the new images the whole page just froze up. After reloading the details page none of the images where there (neither in the normal, nore in the edit view). I uploaded ...
