But which rail tile of the two highlighted should be deconstructed?

The straight rail, I'd say. If you want to remove the curved rail, you can point the cursor a bit off the straight rail.

Probably no player encountered it because there are other major incompatibilities between IR2 and BI which you have probably already spotted - you have recipes with iron components in Logistics research, and in IR2 that will create circular tech dependencies. Not quite true. We unlock a bigger wood...

Off topic! Hi, Deadlock! This is completely OT, but as I'm neither on Discord nor github, I thought I'd abuse this thread to direct your attention to a bug in IR2. I've got a crash report for BI 1.1.4 and could reproduce it with this stacktrace: Failed to load mod "IndustrialRevolution": __Industri...

Yea, the main advantage is, that it is basically doing the same, but the internal game code makes sure that the notifications are not created for everything.

Thanks for the info! This really wasn't obvious to me -- wouldn't it be a good idea to add this to the LuaAPI description?

You can use force.reset_technology_effects()

Thanks, I'll use that!

Bio Idustries does this in on_configuration_changed: -- enable researched recipes for i, force in pairs(game.forces) do for _, tech in pairs(force.technologies) do if tech.researched then for _, effect in pairs(tech.effects) do if effect.type == "unlock-recipe" then force.recipes[effect.recipe].ena...

I'm not sure if you are aware but there is also a pollution effect on modules. This means module can actually affect pollution directly. Yes, I've found that already. So you can make a new module that will only increase pollution and allow only pollution effect on your gardens. This still leaves th...

Note: LuaGameScript is only accessible inside of event handlers.

But there is LuaBootstrap which should work even if LuaGameScript isn't available. So just replace "game.active_mods" with "script.active_mods" …

… increased the tree density to its absolute maximum. … You could edit settings.lua (lines 178--185): { -- Set radius in which fires are extinguished around a fire dummy type = "double-setting", name = "WT-fire-extinguish-radius", setting_type = "runtime-global", allowed_values = {1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3...

However, we were getting the UPS slowdowns even when the fires were very far away from our water turrets Technically, the acid splashes made by spitters and worms are just fires as well (based on the fire prototype), so if the option to clean acid is on, that may be the reason. I don't know if ther...

After binary-tree-searching through our mods, it turned out Water Turret was the culprit here, which I suppose makes sense. Just weird it didn't show as the culprit on the detailed time listing. Oh, geez! I thought I'd improved performance somewhat, and I've honestly no idea what more I could do. B...

Yes, you're right of course -- "doubling" the pollution isn't what it does, it just leaves you with twice the pollution (compared to the un-moduled variety). No, that's not technically correct, but this is nitpicking. Regardless of how you word it, we agree that half of a negative number is another...

The purified air is just a fake item that exists because recipes must have a result. No they don't. results = {} is perfectly valid. You can rid of those useless "void" items/fluids. You're right, technically "results" can be an empty table and the garden would still work. Let me rephrase: "… recip...

Strictly speaking this is not "doubling the pollution". If a machine's pollution is negative it is effectively "cleaning" the chunk it is in, i.e. it removes pollution from the chunk like a tree does. If the chunk's pollution is already zero, nothing is removed because a chunk's pollution value can...

Make an inefficiency module that doubles the base pollution? Geez, another prototype -- I never thought about this, thanks for pointing out the obvious! I'll think about this some more. (Making a module for just one kind of assembler doesn't seem quite right. Also, "inefficiency module" doesn't see...

Is there a way to reduce the pollution of an assembling-machine prototype -- if the base pollution value is negative? :-D data:extend({ { type = "assembling-machine", name = "bi-bio-garden", energy_usage = "200kW", energy_source = { type = "electric", usage_priority = "secondary-input", emissions_pe...

I think you should also listen to on_cutscene_cancelled. (Since Factorio 1.0, a player will be created without an attached character when a new game is started; the character will be added once the cutscene has been cancelled or finished of its own.)

Nice, thanks a lot!
