Also, if you have ideas that relate to the remote interfaces please let me know. I'm very interested in providing inter-mod communication, I just have no idea where to start or what would be useful, obviously I don't want to provide access to the raw pair-data and all remote interface calls should ...

No, error does not happen in new version, though I don't see what you did to fix it :P
Well I accidentaly cut a line of code out in one of the changes, so I put it back. I make silly mistakes like this all the time, it's really frustrating.

EDIT: note that I've restructured most of the code so ...

Just finished restructuring and fixing minor bugs, have reuploaded 0.0.2 release. Tell me if the error still occurs.

I was just thinking today that it would be cool to have a mod that had this mod as a prerequisite.

I've been watching Avaak's Let's Play of Rimworld Alpha 13, and in that game there are mountains/cliffs/stuff you can dig through like your underground surface, except on the "surface" surface.

So ...

Why not code the access shafts/ladders as Car-type entities and make use of the on_player_driving_changed_state event, rather than using the on_tick event?
following up on this: turning access shafts into car entities is incredibly hacky and I'm not sure if it's possible to do this the way that I ...

see this mod :

TL;DR: It's not possible to specify terrain segmentation none, therefore you cannot create empty surfaces.

- Added LuaGame::delete_surface. Deletes the surface passed in if the surface is deletable.
- Added LuaSurface::deconstruct_area() - deconstructs an area as if the player did it.
- Added LuaSurface::cancel_deconstruct_area() - cancels deconstruction over an area as if the player did it.
- Added ...

For my mod I'm currently using on tick to determine whether a player is within range of an entity for teleportation, it would be much less of a waste of resources to have an event that triggers whenever two entities collide with each other. Obviously it would need to parse both of these entities as ...

haha, I think I know why he did it that way !

anyway, @simra, you might want to try to use simple_entity as an entity type for the ...

That's actually a really good idea, I'll add that to my todo list for 0.0.2.
EDIT: Except for one thing, electricity. Although I guess i could ...

So any plans to add flying or burrowing enemies that can travel between surfaces? Or even just enemies which spawn in each surface?

Edit: Also, compatibility. If I want something to be able to spawn in the sky (like... mana nodes from Wizartorio), or if I wanted to be able to find an ore ...

Maybe I wasn't waiting long enough.

Here's an album of un-edited screenshots showcasing everything this mod has to offer (so far) .
Starting with recipes for the shafts up and down (might want to crop those), then showing that there are no recipes for the chests yet?

Bug (?) report while gathering screenshots. Or issue report, whatever.
If you go to the sky without some way to build a platform, you're stuck. You need to move away from the shaft and back to it before it will let you move.

Haven't tried going underground yet, still getting screenshots. Will ...

would be great if there were compressed versions of your solar trains as well. Perhaps I'm missing something.

Yeah, we're still looking into it. One of our players is still desyncing so I'm thinking it's something else I just really have no clue what, we've tried removing all mods and it seems to just sorta happen for no reason?

Have you tried the peer-to-peer connection?

Fixed the bug, thanks Simcra.
And usually I do check, if a player is connected. In this case it wasn't even there to begin with.

No problems mate. Glad I could help.
