Re: [2.0.76] mod manager installs and activates dependencies of deactivated mod


I have easier solution for you:
keep two separate installs for the game. Add two shortcuts to your desktop, and just launch independently. One for Py one for SA etc. They will never mix or interfere with each other.
Use standalone game installer for this, not Steam.


Yes, this is possible ...

[2.0.76] mod manager installs and activates dependencies of deactivated mod



If you don't want them activated you don't need them updated either.


Maybe the updater could be more intelligent then. When checking for updates the default selection is always "everything". If the default selection was "only currently active mods" that would be much more convenient. People ...

Re: [2.0.76] Burner assemblers can get fuel stuck in trash slots


It looks like the machine at {222,38} was previously connected to a circuit network and as such it has control behavior and it has trash inventory present. As a workaround you can copy settings from other assemblers that are working correctly, this action will remove control behavior from this ...

[2.0.76] Burner assemblers can get fuel stuck in trash slots

What did you do?

I am playing Pyanodon's (full suite). Relevant to this bug report, there is a building called "Coal powerplant MK 01". This building takes in a fluid (molten salt) and outputs another fluid (hot molten salt), burning certain types of fuel to do so. Three of those fuel types are ...

Re: [2.0.11] Wired mining drills not sending resource patch data

I'm bumping this bug report as I am able to reproduce it, specifically by loading a save from 2.0.13 in 2.0.14.

In the attached save, there is a mining drill at position (-128.5, -173.5) on Nauvis. The drill currently has no resource to mine, but it was placed on a patch of copper ore initially and ...

Eventually, we were able to find a way around the issue by finding a time we could both be online. When I hosted the save as multiplayer, he was able to join, and take a save. Then he was able to host that save without any issues.

[1.1.88] Crash loading save as host (SteamContext::getSteamID)

I created a modded save in singleplayer on my computer, with the intent of sending it to my friend to host as a multiplayer game. I am able to load the save as singleplayer on my PC just fine, and so is he. But when he tries to load it as a multiplayer game, he gets a hard crash.

Re: Only one train beeing dispatched to a station

What are your thresholds set to? On both ends - what are your provider station provider thresholds and your requester station requester thresholds?

You're requesting 1.5 trains worth of iron ore at your requester (I'm assuming "Max Min wagons 4" means cargo wagons specifically), so 4 wagons * 40 ...

Re: Stations act as provider without marking them as such?


Well it doesn't, when I add back in the combinators - which have a "requesting xyz" value of 51k and a value threashold of -200k the trains still go there as if it's a provider - when there are only a few k items.


That sounds right for the *requester* values.

It would be especially useful in Space Exploration, as the sample video shows.

Re: Command to spawn a naturally-looking ore patch

I know, I know, I'm necro-ing an old thread.

I just wanted to say thanks for the script - it's very useful! It's great to use when I add a mod that adds a resource after I've started a game.

Re: Disabling depots


Super old thread but still comes up in google.

To prevent non-empty trains from dispatching:
Wire the Depot train stop to a Rail signal in front of it. If train not empty, then disable the rail signal. Can also add a speaker for an alert too.
Works for both standard and fluid cargo.


Yup, this ...

Are the depot station, the requester station, and the provider station all in the same network? (If you haven't set any network ID values, then the answer here is yes.)

A similar thing has happened to me before. In my case, I found that the problem started when I got my first large (~300MB) save file (it was a Space Exploration playthrough). Ever since then, it takes Steam forever to synchronize saves.

My solution has been to turn off cloud saves. I periodically ...
