I would be in favor of an optional unified, when visiting the docs it should be pretty obvious that the default for it would be {"crafting"}, i cannot imagine wube would want to add that to each of their recipes so if it gets unified i can only imagine it being optional.

Heck i would even welcome ...

this one would be the GeneratorPrototype in fluid mode, i didn't check all the other places the fuel pollution tooltip could show up, they might suffer from the same, or not.

For comparison, the custom tooltip has just one space, the other one comes straight from the engine, shown on the K2SE gas burning generator burning petrol:

The ability to create a space platform for a force without the chat notification that it got created.

I was trying to update the Jetpack mod to have the thrust description in a custom tooltip instead of hardcoded into the locale.

It appears that custom tooltips applied to equipment prototypes show up twice in the description of the item instead of once.

data.raw["solar-panel-equipment"]["solar ...

Right now it is squished against the left and has some margin at the top, it would be lovely if the distance from the edge would be closer to the same.

+1 for supporting this in general, and making the burner mining drill do it

no, the battery still comes with a mandatory energy bar, the wish is to have an equipment prototype that has no mandatory tooltips or sections like energy.

would be nice if there was an equipment prototype that just did nothing. (well maybe apart from supporting power usage and being able to turn on/off by script individually)

Pre 2.0 modders resort to using things like 1kw night vision, exoskeleton equipment, but those still very much perform a role ...

the energy usage of said equipment is defined as the electrical drain, but nowhere in the tooltip does it mention that it actually consumes 100kW.

`{"description.constant-energy-consumption"}` would probably fit better than just "(min.) consumption" i suppose.

oh that unfortunate, it would be really nice if recipe level effect restrictions took priority over effects on the machine since it makes no sense currently.

steps to reproduce:
- pick a -recycling recipe to set `allow_quality = false` on
- place a recycler and fill it with productivity modules
- set it to recycle your picked item from an infinity chest
- notice that it is able to product quality results of your item
- take a module from the recycler ...

if the trigger for a technology is "scripted" you seem to be unable to set saved_progress on it in order to indicate it to the user, for example when there are multiple entities a player can mine and not just one so you can count it in your script and just update the saved progress and once its ...

asked the question the other day on a somewhat quiet factorio discord server and it gathered 5 whole reactions which is quite a lot there:

since 2.0's release there have been some graphical tweaks to existing buildings, and i would like to nominate the rocket silo for a slight graphical change:

zoomed out it always looks like an alt-mode icon of something vaguely resembling a wall, it would be nice if that tube could take a sharper ...

+1 this would really fill a gap, like for space exploration's hidden unofficial quality mod compatibility i used the "capture" type set to a non-spawner building entity (weird that it's even allowed) just because it thematically it would make sense, but it would be nice if there was a "nothing ...

they are not in beacons by default, and therefore only the speed & efficiency modules have module tints defined for them.

it would be nice if wube could come up with an official beacon_tint for productivity and quality modules that other mods could reference.

- disable space age and quality
- install space exploration
- open factoriopedia
- scroll down on the first tab
- notice that you cannot select/click the last row when it is partially starting to hide again

tabs with a small number of rows do not seem to get affected, and ofc since the scroll bar ...

i and others run into the limitation of not being able to set which technology "just got researched", there's a previous_technology on the force, but writing to it does not cause the technology button to flash, right now the most we can do is write the message to chat with the appropriate sound but ...

A limitation of the inventory api is not being able to query for one item name and get back how many of each quality there are, you'd have to call it once for each quality or just go through get_contents().

it would be nice if we could get like a get_item_count S function or expand get_contents ...
