[0.17.18] Controls settings search removes the content of the rows rather than rows themselves

I think the screenshot is self explanatory. This was fine in 0.17.17.

Re: Make map zoom levels configurable

Another year has passed and I think this deserves another bump. I have tried to mod it myself, but the existing modding API is quite restrictive in regards to the map :( I have raised a modding interface request, but from what I have been told it might be difficult for you to achieve. Could you plea...

How to rename a released mod?

I've released a mod, but now decided that I want it to do more and the name I chose before would reflect that. I could release a new one instead and deprecate the old one. Is there a better option? A bonus noob question - how do I release an update to my mod in the mod portal? :) I cannot see anythi...

[0.17.18] Artillery range not shown correctly on zoomed in map

Steps to reproduce: 1. Open map 2. Enable Turret Coverage 3. Zoom in to the point where you would get World View if you had a radar coverage in that area 4. Keep zooming in, at every step the artillery coverage will look different This happens both when holding a remote and when having a hand empty....

[MOD 0.17] ZoomPresets

Four configurable keys to set desired zoom level and view type. Allows to zoom out farther than in the base game. With a single key press you can open a map maximally zoomed out. With another key press you can see a large world area around you. No more scrolling with your mouse wheel! Configuration ...

Re: Changing zoom level in the map view (i.e. when render_mode == render_mode.chart)

PS In Vanilla map, zooming in and out is relative to the mouse cursor. It would be nice if changing zoom level via script could respect that.

Interacting with objects via zoom to world view

In 0.15 it was possible to interact with the objects when the map was opened and zoomed in (i.e. player.render_mode == render_mode.chart_zoomed_in), assuming that the player was close to the object. It was possible to interact with any object by increasing the value of these two properties: - charac...

Changing render_mode between chart and chart_zoomed_in without changing position

LuaPlayer has following two functions: - open_map(position, scale) - zoom_to_world(position, scale) However they both require a position and it is not possible to get the position out of the game currently ( explanation ). Ideally, I would like the position to be an optional parameter, so that if th...

Changing zoom level in the map view (i.e. when render_mode == render_mode.chart)

Currently I can set the value game.player.zoom that will change the zoom level. This however works only if player.render_mode is render_mode.game (i.e. map is closed) or render_mode.chart_zoomed_in (i.e. map is open and zoomed in so that the world can be seen). It is currently not possible to change...

Re: How to get information about map view?

I see. Thanks for the explanation. Ah, this one. That would be just changing game.player.zoom. Multiplying or dividing existing value by a constant (sensitivity), right? You cannot multiply or divide the zoom, you can only write a number to it. You cannot read player.zoom. This is why I asked how yo...

Re: How to get information about map view?

Would it be possible for me to attach multiple event handlers too see and analyse user's input and calculate the map position myself? No, lua doesn't have access to non-deterministic things such as direct user input. As you already found out, the most you can have are hotkeys, which still doesnt gi...

Re: How to get information about map view?

Player inputs aren't deterministic. The position depends on player input. For it to be deterministic, we would have to save it, or save the player input (to then be able to get the position from that). Both of these things are not feasible because it is a lot of data to save, for nearly no gain. Wo...

Re: How to get information about map view?

Another solution that I was just poking around is that I could define 2 keys and assign them as mouse wheel up and mouse wheel down, and change the zoom level myself. This would allow me to define sensitivity. This would work perfectly while render mode is "player" or "zoom to world&q...

Re: How to get information about map view?

- what is the current map position Not readable because it is not deterministic. What do you mean? Deterministic means non-random. The camera position on the map is not random. It is precisely to what the player set it to (by using WSAD, dragging, zooming) and doesn't change on its own. - what is t...

How to get information about map view?

I am writing my first mod. I need to get some information about the map state, such as: - is map open - what is the current map position - what is the in-game position of where the mouse cursor is pointing I understand that some of these might not be doable (e.g. the last one), but I cannot find any...

Re: [0.17.17] Crashes sometimes when calling open_map(position, scale) while already in the map

close_map() called while not in map also sometimes crashes the game (and sometimes it does nothing as expected).

[0.17.17] Crashes sometimes when calling open_map(position, scale) while already in the map

I am working on a mod. I am executing the following command: /c game.player.open_map({0, 0}, 0.0035) If I don't have a map open, it always works (it opens a map, sets the position and the zoom level). However, if I have a map already open, it sometimes works (by changing the position and the zoom le...

Not exactly a bug, but a usability issue - not quite sure in which category I should have posted it. I use blueprints and blueprints books a lot and rely heavily on the icons to recognise the blueprint I am looking for. Since 0.17.17, the hand is displayed over the toolbar, hiding a significant port...
