I wondered if people like the mod or not and if they have any suggestions.
My mod is based on my own expections of how a game should be thought through and I KNOW, that a lot of people usually do not care much about (or see it different) of what I consider good game design. I got used to this fact ...

I cant agree more. Factorio is a great game but I wonder why there are a lot good games out there with VERY POOR balancing and finesse in its math and game mechanics. Factorio is such a game. Well, factorio has good game mechanics, but they were not thought through completly in a lot of aspects. I ...

My way for resources - endless-resources mod, make the ore infinite, just like oil - weaker over time. You still have to expand and make new outposts, but there is no need to destroy old ones. I cant play without it anymore coz of depleted mines.


This is something I would not like, as it makes ...

Hello, I have another question with lua.

As some people might know there is a command you can use ingame to update modded recipe cost

/c game.player.force.reset_recipes()

My wish is to implement this code in the "command"-lua file so this command is done everytime the game starts(initializes ...

Thanks bro. No it works! Very useful!

Yes, you understood my question, but unfortunatly this does not work.
I tried several different combinations like
data.raw.("assembling-machine")["xyz"].energy = xyz
data.raw.[assembling-machine]].["xyz"].energy = xyz
etc.
Does not work.

Steel furnances recipe and technolgy is changed.

Instead of

tech: steel->steelfurnace; (steel for furnace )
its now
tech: steelfurnace->steel (stonebricks for furnace)
Steel and silicon can only be produced in steelfurnace

(the reason why I left the name "steelfurnace" is because it SMELTS steel ...

Gun turrets benefit from turret upgrades AND ammo upgrades.
Laser turrets benefit only from turrets upgrade.

One fully upgraded laser shot from laser turret makes 11 damage
One fully upgraded piercing shot from a gun turret makes 24.2 damage
24.2 damage is more than 11 - even mitigated by 20% (19 ...

In my mod I had some problem with override. Lets look at 2 different cases:

data.raw.recipe["xyz"].ingredients = xyz
and
data.raw.assembling-machine["xyz"].energy = xyz

The problem is, that the assembling machine override seam to not work because of the "-".(and a lot of entities have its type ...

I can recommend my mod I recently created:

viewtopic.php?f=95&t=20479

Its meant to feel like a well patched original game.

The mod I just created solves this problem completly different.

viewtopic.php?f=95&t=20479&p=128775#p128775

I just created a new mod and here is some advertisement

viewtopic.php?f=95&t=20479&p=128775#p128775

This mod is outdated since some time and due to 0.15 some features even became obsolete (thats good!)

Am I blind or why do I not find the delete button for this Thread?
If a moderator reads this, please delete.

I am looking forward to 0.15, can't wait!

Hmm, I spent several hours trying to understand lua, but though I learned a lot, I am not able to get any reasonable code working.

I hope somebody can help me create a proper working "control.lua", so I can release my mod soon. Actually I spent a lot of time creating my mod the last 3 days, but now ...

Yesterday I created a lot of stuff and I am really enjoying modding, designing content and rebalancing, but I am a total noob in programming.

Healing per tick is only for some entities...

You can implement 'damage' but it will involve a lot of scripting,
I reccomend looking at the control lua in ...

I looked at the code and tried a little bit around and YES, it will work for me! Thank you

Thanks, good to know!

Well, if 1, does not work as I hoped do you know if its possible to make buildings >degenerate<. I know that there is a "healing per tick" value which works in its obvious way, but if you put in a negative value, the player nor a building would degenerate on its own(the player ...

EDIT2: YEEEEA. I DID IT!!! I CANT BELIEV IT. Even on my own! :))
(ofc the code I needed was ridonkulous easy...)

EDIT.: This is un updated post because I wanted to avoid double posts.

In the last few days I created a mod which is meant to extend vanila content in a decent way. The mod keeps the ...

Id recommend BOBs Mod the most, though I have to say that I completly rebalanced it for myself.(because its a balancing hell in my opinion)

Bobs mod is a nice addition of content(almost too much) but if you want tiered building progression and interesting resource processing, its the way to go.

the game shows 50MW (rheinsberg) or 390 kW (vanilla-boiler) ... you should show me how you get 390 kW get out of one vanilla-boiler even with full water load ...
and if you would try feed MF into the rheinsberg you would go over 50 MW with a rensuir-setup ...

If I am not mistake it works like ...
