Spidertron: Allow stopping movement when robots are active.

TL;DR Allow the player to tell a spidertron to stop walking when robots are active. This can make spidertron-based robot building easier and more automatic. What ? A tickbox (or another input style) that makes that spidertron stop walking while its robots are active. When all robots are done the sp...

Re: [1.1.91][linux] "stopped responding" when saving bar was full. (non-blocking save)

Most certainly, I'm truly not sure if I've made changed to it since then, but this is as it is now.

I could not attach a `.dat` file (invalid file extension error) so I removed the extension, okay, also not allowed to do that. I added `.log`.

Hope that this helps.

Re: [1.1.91][linux] "stopped responding" when saving bar was full. (non-blocking save)

Okay so I loaded the game again today, and the quicksave was in the "continue" button and also successfully loaded. Surprised me. Maybe relevant for debugging. I've attached autosave 1, which is the most recent. It is, weirdly, smaller than autosave 3, the one before that, which I've also ...

[raiguard][1.1.91][linux] "stopped responding" when saving bar was full. (non-blocking save)

Got a "Factorio stopped responding" message just when a save was almost done. I attached the log file and a screenshot of the screen to show the saving bar. Running on Manjaro 23.0.1, Gnome, non-steam factorio, non-blocking saves, running the Seablock modpack. The game did not stop at the ...

Re: Friday Facts #375 - Quality

How will these qualities handle stacking? Especially wrt inserter hands. Will an inserter be slower, on average, if the quality levels are mixed? In a similar vein, will this interfere with all the optimizations around saturated belts? It sounds like 10% (or more) of end-game outputs could be highe...

Re: Friday Facts #375 - Quality

Super cool stuff devs. Very excited to see what kinds of layouts will be good with the recyclers. I'm especially happy to see another shape of building in the game. If it were another 3x3 box it wouldn't be bad per se, but a new shape always creates new layout challenges. I have two questions though...

Fix for__pycoalprocessing__/prototypes/functions/functions.lua:383: attempt to index field 'expensive' (a boolean value)

I'm working on compatibility between your mods and mine. My mod generates a whole host of recipes that have expensive and normal modes. The handling of these modes in the prototypes.functions.functions.lua file is wrong due to a faulty assumption. The `expensive` and `normal` fields of recipes can b...

Re: Friday Facts #370 - The journey to Nintendo Switch

Great work on the switch stuff! I like the style for the UI in the switch, though it does remind me a lot more of 0.12 factorio than the new UI. Is that on purpose? And for the extension, another year to go at least. A long wait but surely worth the time. Very happy to see that you lots are putting ...

Re: Solved: recipe's "Made In" list empty when prototype explorer clearly shows recipe category matches machine's

Kinda annoyed since the wiki says nothing about this at all, but it did work, I had to add the

Code: Select all

fluid_boxes
and

Code: Select all

collision_box
fields for them to work.

Solved: recipe's "Made In" list empty when prototype explorer clearly shows recipe category matches machine's

When I change the recipe category for the processing unit recipe to "crafting-with-fluid-phantom-machine", create that category, and then create a new assembler that can craft that category, the "made in" list at the bottom of the recipe stays empty, it does make the header of th...

Re: [1.1.53] "stopped responding" twice in main menu on same simulation

Happened again. This time in-game, again when I pressed shift-tab. Steam was in the tray, but I just remembered that this is also the overlay key. Could have something to do with it.

I crashed on the main menu twice, in the same simulation. See connected image for which. Both times the music kept going for a while. The first time I was on the single-player game creation screen. I shift tabbed whilst editing enemy settings and then the game stopped running. The second time I was ...

Re: [1.1.18] Tank target graphic is green when pointing out of range with Tank Cannon, not with Vehicle Machine Gun

I see... I'm more a fan of placing the green target at the distance the shell will hit. Akin to how ilthe target moves a little when you shoot with auto targeting system for the other guns.

What happened? When you aim a tank with the Tank Cannon selected the target graphic is green even if the target is out of range, this is not the case with the Vehicle Machine Gun. (Note that as visible in the images, you cannot actually shoot this far, it's just the graphic that is wrong/misleading....
