What you describe would be "Prototypes documentation" and it doesn't currently exist. We haven't made anything like that yet because we haven't thought of a good way to automate the creation of it and manually creating all of it is a recipe for making documentation that gets outdated inst...

Are there any plans to add higher tier electric trains?

Please?

If done correctly, a "turret" that "can only shoot immobile entities" will be in the list of the less performance taxing mods. Oh? I've read a little bit of the logic/control.lua from the Bio-Cannon & Additional Turrets mods.... How exactly would I go about coding what you d...

Would it be possible to add either a parameter to turrets that lists all types of entities that they'll engage or a category of turrets that has that ability? Something where it would be a lot easier (& UPS efficient) to make turrets that specifically target spawners, worms, and buildings (for P...

Rats, really?

Damn . That might create a fair bit of lag for what I want to do....

Are you still maintaining this mod?

Is there a place that documents all the categories, parameters, & functions in Factorio? For example, something which shows all the possible parameters for an "ammo-turret" category entity.

Is this something that gets specified for the turret? For the ammunition? Does it have to be part of the control.lua?

How do I set a turret so that it will only attack worms, spawners, and other player's buildings (for PvP)?

I am dishonored.


Much dishonorbu.

Oki-dokes, I've isolated things a little bit more. I commented out all the if-then-end statements, & it loaded fine. I then uncommented the first, and it gave the error. So..., here's that bit of code: if data.raw.fluid["lithia-water"] then data:extend( { { type = recipe, name = "...

Hey all, I've been working on a mod of mine, & I'm still trying to get the game to load with it enabled. I got through a number of 'standard' syntax errors, but then got this one: Error while trying to copy to data.raw: Can't copy object of type function Unfortunately, it didn't give a file name...

Yes.

I'm adding some recipes into a mod of mine that are dependent on stuff in another persons' mod(s). I'm getting an error though on my if statements that check before adding a recipe if data.raw.fluid["lithia-water"] then { type = recipe, name = "void-lithia-water", category = &quo...

Oye vey :/, this sounds tricky. One of the mods I'm working on is adding a handful of turrets. First of all, I'm making them as "Spiritual Successors" to the super-long-range turrets from the original Total Annihilation (I just dated myself, didn't I? :P). Since that game is so old, is tha...

What's the policy on using various graphics, pictures, & sound clips from the internet in mods? For example, using a sound-blip from a YouTube video as a sound effect, or a googled picture? Does that violate some intellectual property bit? Do I need to cite the source?

Probably a noob question, but how do I set/change the insert limits? I'm using Bob's mods with sniper-turret crawl to take out Nat. Evo. nests :), & I find that just 10 piercing ammo runs out pretty quickly! Very carefully. in fact so carefully I can't remember how. Outside of that you can chan...

Thank you so much for that! It has indeed gotten me started, although now I've run into a bug. Here is the code I've got right now... local events = defines.events local robot_built = events.on_robot_built_entity local built = events.on_built_entity local died = events.on_entity_died local placement...

Is the website available?
