Use the permissions system to disable dropping items?
defines.input_action.drop_item

Most programs with multi line text boxes use CTRL+ENTER to send it, would it be viable to add this combination to multiline boxes?

That is probably related to inventory sorting, I'll add an issue on picker to take a peek at it

- is a special character in lua, to use it as a key it needs to be quoted

a.one is the same as a['one']

but

a.two-three has a special character in the key string so it has to be quoted otherwise it tries to subtract a.two and the (possibly nil) variable three. a['two-three']

@rseding, You are thinking from inside out. not outside in. In a NEW game the runtime-global settings (and user) are set to whatever is set when edited from the main menu (or default) Changing these settings FROM the main menu then loading an existing game doesn't change the current maps value. I as...

I believe this is fixed for .17 with 0 sized bounding boxes

Entities are created on a grid unless the off-grid flag is set The pole is being created at {x.4245234, y.32423} then being grid moved to x.5 and y.5 The hidden entity has the off-grid flag so it is not being moved to be on the grid. hence you won't find the hidden entity at the lights position Or m...

entity.destroy() is not making a new item, fast_replace = true is It simulates fast_replacing an entity, if there is no player associated to the create_entity event then the item from mining is spilled to the ground. so you need to add spill=false I think this next bit applies to later versions of ....

function data.extend(self, otherdata) if type(otherdata) ~= table_string or #otherdata == 0 then error("Invalid prototype array " .. serpent.block(otherdata, {maxlevel= 1})) end for _, e in ipairs(otherdata) do Not a bug in the sense that it is doing what ipairs does by stopping iteration...

With a quick glance, none of the proposed soultions are multiplayer safe If you ALREADY have a tick handler I use something like this local function print_in_10(msg) global.future[game.tick] = msg end script.on_init(function() global.future = {} end) script.on_tick(function() -- stuff if global.futu...

It doesn't "just" use up memory. It does stuff with it. It is just doing too much stuff on a big map (mostly find_entities migration fixes). For .17 I have removed some of the migration files as they shouldn't be needed anymore.

Yes it adds more overhead, but so do most libraries. is it perfect no, but it does a nice job and catches most of the issues.

If the entity becomes invalid no further events for that entity will be raised. So all you need to worry is what you do in your own event after destroying the entity. OP is using a library that doesn't handle this correctly ( ahem stdlib ahem ), so the event subscribers still get called. Ahem lies,...

Checking the list after some time...oh, nice more delicious cookies =). Added highlight-box entity that can be passed a "bounding_box" or "source" entity parameter to display a highlight box around an area or entity. Added LuaPlayer::create_local_flying_text(). Can i assume that...

Also can you confirm that the require __mod__/file.lua actually works limitless? I.e. things like factorio-stdlib now finally don't need to be copied for every single mod anymore? (because the example explicitly mentions scenarios requiring mods, not mods requiring mods.)

Confirmed

It goes back to that Nexela guy using on_built_entity for this. I will change it for .17 version to use on_robot_built_entity. Chances are I won't have the time to do anything with the .16 version though In the meantime you could probably do an if event.mod_name == "Nanobots" do robot buil...

Why are you using a library to do logging when you can just do: log("your contents here") ? Thanks! The problem was actually the logger, which for some reason only printed one line. The only reason i used it was to get all of the log into a separate file, but im not sure if that is possib...

find_entities_filtered should return nil if the table is empty Why? All that would do is add more lua code bloat :) for _ in pairs(s.find_entities_filtered{}) do vs hacks which add an extra step like for _ in pairs(s.find_entities_filtered{} or {}) do local ents = s.find_entities_filtered{} if s th...

If a mod has a 'readme.md' file in the root and the description in the portal edit box is blank it should use the readme as the description. Category could be read from the info.json as a string (or array depending on how it is set up), And if the category string doesn't match a valid category (typo...
