Seems like Team Challenge mode includes loader into the chests where you are supposed to place the requested items. This works without loading any mods. Just joining into the team challenge server is sufficient. So, uh... loader both is and isn´t in vanilla right now. I wonder if it gets included as...

Right now I think the biggest issue with this... perhaps the only real issue with this is that in multiplayer the mods do not (yet) automatically download to clients from server. Ironically this issue has only gotten bigger as the multiplayer part of the game has improved. Previously modding the gam...

I am trying to implement this as a mod. I havent done any modding before though so dont expect perfection

Well, first version anyways!

Thanks for the help!

I would appreciate if someone tested this too

zeblote: true! Small tweaking to commence!

edit out: (didnt find all the necessary files)
actually no, wait, Im an idiot. just found the other files under their respective folders

That did the trick! And to my amazement it actually works like intended! the game somehow automatically adds the belt parts under the transparent parts of the underground belt entity. :D http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/267225554897916033/2304F2B4E28BAC9C37D50CB4E3F8EA6458EB5308/ todo: ...

well I encountered an error I cant seem to figure out: contents of my data.lua local belts = data.raw['underground-belt'] local normal = belts['underground-belt'] local express = belts['express-underground-belt'] local fast = belts['fast-underground-belt'] normal.structure.direction_out.sheet.filena...

Thank you so much so far! However, it just struck me that belts are of course animated. So this is a bit of an added complexity. (animated png makes me scratch head) That said, if I can even make some kind of visible change, that will be a good start, I will return with more questions once I have an...

Okay, so I have 0 experience with factorio modding. How do I get started? Seeing as I have no experience with this, I wanted to do a very limited, simple mod... or fail and be very humble about it. What I want to do? I want to actually make this underground belt change so it looks visually different...

From thread linked above:



Does anyone actually oppose to this? How is this not done already This would be so much win!

here´s a few I´ve seen recently

TLDR Basically I´m proposing some random events that add variety to the game if enabled by the player. ************************************************************************ Two of my favorite games at the moment are Factorio and Rimworld. Both have elements that I feel would fit well in the other...

I just got interested about circuit network stuff. After some figuring out and trial and error I had some blinking lights and stuff working. Head is full of ideas now. All kinds of things that can be done that I havent thought of on my previous playthroughs... and with the 0.14 I can show the stuff ...

can you toggle the water pumps on and off based on accumulator charge?

point is making the system as simple as possible. 1 pump per row of steam machines probably being simpler to wire than all inserters.

My mspaint skills may leave much to be desired but maybe this will still bring my point across. suggestion to a minor graphical overhaul of underground belt: no, the shadows arent supposed to be rendered wrongly like this, the point Im trying to make is only that the other side of the belt should no...

Been playing a bit more again recently and only now found there was a reply to my ancient post.
Krayt´s idea about color coded pipes seems great to me. +1 to that!

Anyone else have opinions about this? Has this been discussed elsewhere?

Seems like I get alert sound when the bugs are damaging my things, and I keep getting alarm sounds while the attack is going on. This is alright. However, it seems like I consistently get the alert sound one more time after all the bugs have been killed. Sometimes several seconds after the fact. Thi...

yea, that makes sense. So its enough just make sure not to actually hit the limit of 111 before oil

Finished in 104 as well and it was an interesting challenge

is there a way to cancel a specific achievement so that I can try to get it again in single player? maybe in some ini/cfg/whatever file?
