Re: Lindors Advanced Pasting

Now i'm thinking about automatically moving superfluous items from chests to the player's output or trash inventory when pasting requests from a recipe.
Will probably the feature of the next version.

[1.1.87] incorrect sound function

Hey :) "__base__/prototypes/entity/sounds.lua": function "sounds.large_explosion(volume)" has an unused "volume" parameter. The volume is always set to 0.55 in spite of different prototypes trying to set different volumes. Examples from "__base__/prototypes/entity/...

Re: new data:extend

Okay. Well, since the modders are required to update their mods for any new game version, complete forwards-compatibility will never happen anyway. It just makes me sad because i see massive wasted potential here. If there was just one simple rule, namely that tables inside tables must be distinguis...

Re: new data:extend

Honestly, data.raw is pure chaos. Even for the same entry in the same prototype, just over multiple game versions: Sometimes the entry is a table Sometimes it's a table of a table Sometimes it's a table of multiple non-uniquely-identifyable tables For a game like factorio that is generally thought t...

Re: new data:extend

Or, another idea for a good paradigm would be that every table without a "type" or "name" identifier always has a unique key. Like every graphics table with the key "head" cannot contain other tables. Therefore, if a table does not contain a "type" or "na...

Re: new data:extend

And there's one unsolvable problem: Sometimes we want to insert a value into a table without a type or name identifier. But such tables cannot be uniquely identified other than by the key, but the key is arbitrary and can always change in the future. Example: data.raw: { type = "beam", nam...

Re: new data:extend

Spotted a small mistake in the code above. Only applies if you're setting up a completely new prototype instead of altering an existing one. I'll still leave it here so you can learn from my mistake. Here's the fixed code: --set up function names to be local and allow for recursion local copy local ...

Turns out that the code i have written was absolutely terrible. But i came up with a solution: --very fast deepcopy of any non-recursive lua object without metatable support local copy do copy = function(obj) if type(obj) ~= "table" then do return obj end else local result = {} for k, v in...

new data:extend

Hello dear devs :), Let's suppose you want to add an area-attack to data.raw["beam"]["laser-beam"]. You deepcopy the table and add your area attack to laserBeam.action. Now if for some reason future vanilla factorio also decides to add an area attack, ours would overwrite this. W...
