Having this error with my brand new portable chests mod (https://mods.factorio.com/mods/mickael9/portable-chests) This happens if you have a portable chest in an inventory and then try to load the save with the mod missing or disabled. It seems to be caused by the fact there is no base item of type ...

The description should be updated as well, it's outdated now: modules :: dictionary string → uint: The stacks of items to be delivered to target entity from logistic network. Each stack must be table. If empty, the item request proxy won't be created. How about: modules :: dictionary string → uint: ...

Some entities such as the assembling table have no direction unless we change their settings (eg set it to a fluid recipe). When in that state, the direction property always returns 0 and assignments to it are ignored. But the entity actually has a direction, it's just not exposed. If you set a flui...

@Rseding91: yeah, but this mod also does it for non-logistic chests too

Anyway, I've fixed the mod so it works in 0.15

If we can't request a particular string in a particular locale because not all players need to have the same locales installed then perhaps we can have a function to get the English localised name? That would still be better than what we have now. There are quite a lot of items where the internal n...

I just read this topic about the need to get the translated text as needed to the player for sorting & filtering purposes. I think this use case could be covered by a new special table widget with client-side-only filtering and sorting abilities. Proposal: The client code filters and sorts rows ...

Hi, i've enabled instant blueprints but if another mod places ghosts they are not revived. As workaround i instant request the items and my personal roboport build it. Is it possible to get this ghosts also build instantly? Greetings, steinio. My guess is that this mod doesn't raise the on_built_en...

After some reverse engineering I wrote this parser in Python, it should work with all saves that can be loaded by Factorio 0.15. https://gist.github.com/mickael9/5dbdb926d3a800bc0b9badf0cc1d5a9f Sample output: /home/mickael/.factorio/saves/test.zip: base_mod: base campaign: '' current_version: 0.15....

I tried your mod. I don't see the need to do anything for item requests? The modules are automatically inserted correctly when instant blueprint is turned on. Or did I get your message wrong? BTW, I love your idea of one-time blueprint! I will keep it in my personal mod pack. :D Well, I'm adding th...

@Mooncat: would you consider adding support for item-request-proxy items in your on_built_entity handler? My mod (cut-and-paste) would benefit from it May I have more information about this? What should I do for item-request-proxy? :) Ideally, you'd just insert the items from itemProxy.item_request...

I think there has been some misunderstanding because I just tested and Factorio 0.15.12 only accepts the old format and the docs are even more incorrect. Let me sum it up. This is what the game accepts in both 0.15.11 and 0.15.12: surface.create_entity{ name = "item-request-proxy", modules...

If you start a factorio in headless mode, it will nuke the [controls] section of the config.ini file. This can easilly be reproduced: Start Factorio normally. Change some controls. Exit. Run the same Factorio binary in headless mode (eg factorio --create /tmp/dummy or factorio --start-server /tmp/du...

LuaEntity::create_entity documentation states that the modules property is an array of SimpleItemStack. This is not true because the module format is { item = 'name', count = 42 } rather than { name = 'name', count = 42 } I personally think that this should be replaced with a item_requests property...

Right now, if you have an entity that you want to copy somewhere, you need the original entity to exist to be able to copy it ( copy_settings require the source LuaEntity) or you need to manually deep copy the entity's properties to manually copy them (assuming they're exposed) as some aren't intros...

I've fixed the issue (version number stays same so you'll get official update from Mooncat when it comes)

But the void fluid only voids water now. Since when do boilers only accept water?

Did I miss something or we can't have a multiple choice combo box setting (string or int type) with localized values?
