Guys, it's really much easier to make just variable editor command like this: script.on_event(defines.events.on_console_command,function(event) command(event) end) function command (event) if event.command == "your_command" then local par = splitString(event.parameters," ") --now...

if someone will find it, i found only one solution: custom commands

use this event to run function that will change variable you need

Is it possible to change mod's storage variable by some command? I know that will show all data from mod, but how can i change it?

I worked on some mod for space age and have few questions: 1) Can i hide asteroid chunks from connection info? 2) Why i MUST use normal map and roughness for variations (and i totally cant understand how it works, all i have is black spine something instead what i see in space age (and no examples n...

Thanks! Can you change link in api to this, because current is confusing a bit

I rewriting old mod to 2.0 and looks like this not works anymore: storage.generators_text[entity.unit_number] = rendering.draw_text{ text = storage.dysonsphere, scale = 1, color = {255,239,161}, surface = entity.surface, target = entity, only_in_alt_mode =true, draw_on_ground =false, alignment = &qu...

How about adding priority downloads to json mods? I often make forks of mods or addons, and sometimes the author uses the last stage of loading for the main code and my mod simply does not see the necessary prototypes or smth else. What if it were or as in rimworld - the json specifies the mods that...

Game is crashing, thats our fault, so moving to bug reports Please attach the whole mod and save games etc. I dont think so, because another mods with this works well But np, that only mod i use (i remove all saves and mods for tests) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dN2Ig6DzPfGErdt1KbFeUdw-veZJFr9...

I try to add my own level to menu, i do it like in base mod or in another mods of this, but in 95% my game crashes with this: 52.275 Factorio initialised 52.320 Steam Storage Quota: 4454/4768 52.353 Error CrashHandler.cpp:480: Exception Code: c0000005, Address: 0x00007ff75455959f ModuleBase: 0x00007...

I want to add my simulation to the menu.
I imported the map from the standard set, changed it as I needed and added it back removing everything except level.dat
However, when game try to show my simulation, it just crashes, which may be the problem?

Wow, I just want to say that the new lighting system is awesome! I think that when creating new objects in the mod, we will need to specify a new sprite layer. However, I do not yet understand how we will specify the color of light and its intensity.

Can I use mods/scripts to add my own scenes to the menu? I think many global mods would really like to do this. Either I, as the creator of modpacks, would like to display in the menu what my modpack contains.

Is there an easy way to get all the initial resources that are required for crafting? Not "iron plate" or "battery", and how much iron, oil, etc needed for crafting? Or can I only find them after 1000 "for"? I only need to get the original resources, which are written, ...

TL;DR The ability to specify a separate type of rails and then select the type in the train and cars. Why? At the moment, the rails are rails, you can change the appearance, and that's it. But why not add the ability to choose which tracks the train can go on? Specifically, I am interested in this ...

I want to make my own mode of transport based on the train. The main problem is that I need that my transport could not ride on the rails from the original game, but only on mine, and accordingly the train from the original game could not ride on my rails, it is desirable not to come into conflict w...

I can't speak for the others, of course, but I'm not opposed to that idea -- thanks for the offer! Also, perhaps you should include the link after all. I don't speak much Russian (just some faint memories from school way back in the past, and I don't know about Qon and Yoyobuae. But this is a forum...

You could use the rendering class . For example, I use this code in Thank you again, i complete code part (maybe i add new items or technologies, but I won't change anything else in control.lua) With Rendering class i made animation with light and text, it's really useful https://sun9-29.userapi.co...

You could use the rendering class . For example, I use this code in GCKI to put a key-icon on locked vehicles in ALT-mode: -- Set icon if not v.entity.active then v.lock_icon = rendering.draw_sprite{ sprite = "GCKI_locked-icon", target = v.entity, target_offset = {0, -0.5}, surface = v.en...
