Re: [1.1.x] Hidden script rendered shapes are still being checked in preparation loop

same thing with alt-view; if you go with a "custom grid", should you need a 3x3 one or something, I can give you the code, it is exactly as you say. It does NOT change "script preparation" whether an alt view is enabled. It is even more deadly if you have an alt view with a detai...

Re: [1.1.33] lua: unexpected projectile target miss at slow speeds

I see... If it were possible, Would really like to see something like Bresenham's (wiki link) algorithm applied here for projectile position logic. We set the source and the goal for the projectile (to even be able to spawn it) in the first place. But then it reduces it to per-tick deltas... And app...

[1.1.33] lua: unexpected projectile target miss at slow speeds

TL;DR: with surf.create_entity(projectile, target = playerpos.y +2, speed=0.1) cannon ball kills you instead :> (not exactly, just flies higher than the target). expect: hit that pole what you get: you get killed. /c local ce = game.surfaces[1].create_entity; local ppos = game.player.position; local...

Re: [1.1.32] Unexpected behaviour of LuaTile hidden_tile

The ability to set undertiles is quite tempting. With a simple code as this function setter(name,pos) game.surfaces[1].set_tiles({{name=name,position=pos}}) end function loop(area,f) for x = area[1][1],area[2][1]-1 do for y = area[1][2],area[2][2]-1 do f({x,y}) end end end function waterstep(pos) se...

Re: [1.1.32] Unexpected behaviour of LuaTile hidden_tile

the under-tile does not get updated on set-tiles. It should be though. open up the freeplay. Set up sizes to 50x50 to skip the crash site then (/c + code) first do this function setter(name) game.surfaces[1].set_tiles({{name=name,position={1,1}}}) end function tester() local tile = game.surfaces[1]...

Re: [1.1.32] Unexpected behaviour of LuaTile hidden_tile

The expected behavior would either be >> a clever set_tiles that sanitizes the undertile to nil if the tile is below the concrete/cover layer (can't cover other tiles and thus can't have undertiles). This would mean it just works and we could rely on the ids we get with get_tile. >> an api to direct...

Re: [1.1.32] Unexpected behaviour of LuaTile hidden_tile

Lemme elaborate on what is going on: TL;DR: the under-tile does not get updated on set-tiles. Thus we can not rely on get_tile.hidden_tile . It would _not_ be the last _update_ one but the last to have went _under the concrete_ one. (which does not happen on set_tiles as you may guess) We want to te...

Re: [1.1.25] Bitters can jump. Now over the walls. Old ref included.

Does me getting a vid of a relatively small number (4 nades to clean) (vs 12-15 average at bottlenecks) jumping over the straight wall would turn the tables here?
I mean them getting over the closed area that they have no access to on a normal basis

[1.1.21] Biter can cross land gap

An old one here. At *normal* conditions 1 cell moat or 1 cell void is too much for any bitter to cross. I suppose it was an old pathfinder issue but whatever. Since you yourself and most of your means for transport (except for trains) can easily cross the 1-cell-gap it is sometimes being used as a t...

Re: [1.1.21] ENTER in personal logistic requests not working when in a vehicle

(just adding ref links)
This old one might be VERY related to this. Especially the enter key.
Also there's another related thread here (1.1.21).
