Your requirements seem to match those of Uranium processing, except with more than two possible results. So I think everything ought to be fine provided the probabilities add up to 1...

BTW, fun fact: you can get both U-235 and U-238 at the same time from the uranium processing recipe.

Both proposal are related, because they both want a more reliable mechanism for fractions of items instead of the quite random probability/chance mechanism. The first proposal is a special case, that all fractions are add up to 100% with predictable yield (covered by my proposal) and that you want ...

It seems like someone goes manually over every method/property and re-adds these notes manually. There's a lot of them missing (but, notably, there are some for the topmost methods) on LuaEntity despite my earlier report being crossed out. There is still a lot missing even on the LuaGuiElement, the ...

I would also like to have a recipe, which outputs a secured fraction, not a chance f.e: 50% would mean, that it outputs 1 every 2 cycles. 70% would mean, that it outputs as soon, as it reaches at least 1 and the remainder is taken over: 1: 0.7 = 0.7 2: 0.7 + 0.7 = 1.4 = 0.4 + 1 (yield) 3: 0.4 + 0.7...

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/LuaTrain.html#LuaTrain.carriages - are these listed in the order they occur in-game, in some other order or in no particular order? I just wanted to make a quick note on all the Position conversation: I agree that it's all a pretty big mess at the moment. The fun...

Ah, it doesn't download if you click and drag.

Does for me.

Also, holding alt will allow you to select text without following links (or sending JS events for that click at all I think).

Good to know. Would have been good for this if it also didn't download the link.

I was having a problem with it, often you want to copy-paste exact names of variables and events, and when it was a link it would keep jumping the page around instead of letting me select it and copy That's a good point, though in my experience links only cause issue when you want to select in the ...

The name in the method list at the top of the page is still a link and works like it always does. The chain icon at the bottom of the page is just a bonus. The confusing part is that the name+link at the top of the page is the same color as the name+description at the bottom of the page, but only o...

So, today the way to obtain a link to method/property from its entry has changed from a neat link on the name itself to a pretentiousfancy little chain icon. Can we have the old one back? Nothing prevents having both.

Oh, all the "can only be used if" remarks are missing. This is a big degradation compared to the old docs. Speaking of which: The description for `scroll_mode` for LuaGuiElement::scroll_to_item mentions "scroll-pane", contrary to the function's (correct) description saying "...

This isn't spamming. They posted this one thread, with an opening comment that they weren't sure where to post something like this. When given the link to the correct already existing thread, they then posted once there. That's been it: 2 posts. Perfectly acceptable and I would've done the same in ...

Ok sure, but go easy on me okay, comments like "With great reluctance I give you this link, but beg you: stop reposting this issue everywhere." don't really sound welcoming or anything. Someone asked me to post the issue on a different thread so I did, that's all. Imagine spamming everywh...

I'm sorry, what do you mean? Is this a known problem? I searched for 'enum' but can't find anything.

It is known now. Posting about it once is enough.

Thanks for that link! Although, it seems that it is mostly intended for suggestions on clarification, and less about bugs, so maybe this thread would not really fit, but I can post a link anyway.

With great reluctance I give you this link, but beg you: stop reposting this issue everywhere.

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/LuaSurface.html#LuaSurface.darkness doesn't say what the possible values interval is.

-> Thanks, added for the next release. It's [0, 1].

The wiki doesn't say the maximum number of prototypes for most prototypes so far as I can see.
-> It's listed on all prototypes where it matters (maximum number is 255 or less).

https://wiki.factorio.com/Types/SpriteFlags is in dire need of descriptions.

https://wiki.factorio.com/Types/LightDefinition#type - the dependent property listing is inconsistent with other pages, where they are listed on the same level as the independent ones.

https://wiki.factorio.com/Prototype/ElectricPole#active_picture - what is this for?
-> Description added on the page.
