Unfortunately I don't have time to try this mod but it looks interesting. You're welcome to take any ideas from "The Colony" concept from years ago. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=39180 Having civilian building spread or pop up randomly could be an interesting buildi...

he mod Sosciencity (0.1.0) caused a non-recoverable error. Please report this error to the mod author.

Hello. The API allowes the creation of Electric Energy Interfaces that are only able to input or output energy. If you set the EnergySource's ElectricUsagePriority to "primary/secondary-input" the EEI can not output energy, even if you set its power_production field at runtime. Likewise if...

Hello. The API of the LuaGameScript-function check_prototype_translations() claims that it checks technologies for missing locales. But it doesn't find my technologies that don't have a localisation. So there's a technology with an unknown name: https://i.imgur.com/B9hPVCQ.png But it doesn't appear ...

Hello best developers in the world, the LuaInventory object has a find_item_stack-function which returns the first stack and index with the given item-prototype-name. This is very useful if you need just one stack, because then you don't have to iterate all slots of the inventory and check if they c...

TL;DR Remove the influence of power usage effects on a machines pollution. What? This is kind of a follow-up of this bug report that turned out to be a (imho obscure) feature. At the moment the pollution a machine produces is calculated like this: pollution = base value * (1 + sum(pollution effects...

The problem is not the 'modifier' value in the brackets, but the 'actual' value before that. Unless I'm seriously misunderstanding how the pollution is calculated, the pollution modifiers of all effect sources are added. pollution = base value * (100% + sum(pollution modifiers)) 10/min (base value) ...

Hello, a user reported a bug on my mod which seems to be caused by the base game. In the given example the miner has a base pollution of 10/min and two modules with +50% and -75% pollution. The tooltip and the pollution production statistics show that the miner actually produces 11.25/min (+12.5%) i...

Hello when you create 'tool'-prototype items and give them custom localisations, like this: prototype.durability_description_key = "description.food-key" prototype.durability_description_value = "description.food-value" then these localisations are only shown in the item tooltip....

Is there way to add an infinite research path for "Green Thumb" that adds a global productivity to plant production? Same with Animal Husbandry for animal productivity? It would be similar to mining productivity. Not speed, but produce extra product. My mod py veganism has a system to mak...

Hey, I figured I should post updates sometimes to motivate myself. And because I got inspired by the fff posts. :) Because I might always feel the urge to say it I will communicate it just once: the development of the mod is going slowly, but steady. It takes quite long because the scope of the mod ...

Oh hey, the base game recently added a nice looking shader for the leaves of trees. So in the modding world there happen to be trees in the sprites/animations of other entities, which now stand out because their leaves don't move (or not in the same way in case one added an animation). So I wanted t...

I'm not developing this mod at the moment, because pyal is in the same conceptual space and will most likely invalidate a lot of the ideas I have for pyv.

Also I'm focusing on getting Sosciencity to a playable state.

Yes you can.

Hey,

I would like to maintain your mod, as I used it fairly often.

Less than a fortnight, and already the buzzards are circling the carrion. I wish all this shit-stirring would stay confined to Reddit and Discord where it belongs. I'm sure I will regret asking this, but I can't help me. Why are you always so angry ? The people love your mod and don't want to see i...

I'm a bit unsure how to report it and if it's really a bug, because it happens in a unreleased mod I'm working on. I'm creating a table inside a vertically directed flow. (inside a scroll-pane, inside a tabbed_pane, inside a frame, inside a frame) The table has 2 columns and is filled with labels to...

Hey, thanks for the speedy answers. :) In case it is the future and you are looking for an answer to a similar problem, this is the working code: Tirislib_Entity.create { type = "corpse", name = "farm-remnants", icon = "__sosciencity__/graphics/icon/farm.png", icon_size...

Hey, I have a fairly big non-square entity and I created a remnant for each rotation of it. But then a problem arises: The game picks one rotation at random, which looks really weird: https://i.imgur.com/G5BdJVt.png I was really shocked. My code for the corpse is: Tirislib_Entity.create { type = &qu...
