Re: Cloning a ghost onto same position no longer possible?

Great suggestions! Thank you guys! I'll have a look into those; they sound promising. I also just toyed around with a secondary surface, where I clone my entities to, then remove the original and clone them back. But I don't know the implications of creating a new surface. This could be a bad idea, ...

Cloning a ghost onto same position no longer possible?

Hello, I just noticed, that a change in 1.1 broke my mod "BotPrioritizer." In a nutshell: I'm cloning a entity ghost directly over a existing one and then I'm destroying the original one. This makes it, that the personal robots can take over if you're near the ghosts, because these build o...

Re: FactoCord - A Discord Factorio bot

Is this still just a wrapper for the headless server? Wouldn't it be possible to communicate via a mod, that reads and writes to a file, for example?

Re: Robot Construction Queue

That's unfortunate. I just found Rseding91 confirming such a thing in 2018 (here: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?p=388344#p388344). Scanning the targets of the personal robots would be enough for my purposes. Chris Edit: Bilka confirmed this on the Discord. There's no way to access the ro...

[Solved] Robot Construction Queue

Hello fellow Factorians, Quick question: I'm trying to find out if an entity is being constructed/deconstructed/upgraded/serviced by personal robots (the logistics cell the robot belongs to has a character as owner and is mobile) or not. Is there any way to tell which robot is on the way to which en...

Re: get_upgrade_target returns nil althogh to_be_upgraded returns true!?

Nexela, who I also asked about this (since they make the Nanobots mod and also deal with upgrades), filed a bug report: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=90252 Apparently the function upgrade_target() returns nil after a bot has been dispatched, even though the entity hasn't been u...

get_upgrade_target returns nil althogh to_be_upgraded returns true!?

Hello fellow Factorioans, I'm new into Factorio modding, but I have dabbled a bit in Lua. Too little to call myself "experienced", but I have encountered Lua's weirdness ("everything's a table", lol). I'm the author of a mod called "BotPrioritizer", that I initially tho...

Re: Version 0.17.4

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but is it possible to make the Hanzi (the chinese logograms) less bold? They are really overwhelming in the server list.

Edit: Maybe they're Japanese kanji, I don't know.

Re: [MOD 0.16] LTN Tracker

Yes, although I am currently very busy. Didn't even get to download or play 0.17, yet. I will have a look this afternoon. Depending on how many changes are needed a 0.17 compatible version will be out tonight or on the weekend. Edit: 0.9.0 is out now and works with 0.17. Its functional, but looks s...
