Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Smarter Circuitry

When you create an underground belt with create_entity you can set if the belt is input or output using the type parameter. So to reverse them you need to recreate them with the opposite value

Edit: I only read the last post, not the one above it, sorry. You obviously know this.

Re: electric trains

Sadly it is really inconsistent. I never found a good workable solution so i went with coal. Hope you can find a better way.

Re: electric trains

Wube must have fixed the issues with it then which is nice, It was a pain having to use coal. The other issue with the way wagons did things was having a bunch of moving entities under the train to draw power, I always wanted to go back and change it so the entities were under the track instead so t...

Re: electric trains

I hate to be a buzz kill but unless wube have done a pass in 0.12 on the train energy system you can't just set the energy. The coal trick was used in wagons (now 5dims train mod) because the train energy system is buggy/broken. You can't reliably read or write the energy from the train entity.

Re: Support Logistics Slots on All Entities

Here is how you do this. In on_built_entity watch for your new gun turret to be built, when it is built put a transparent requester chest under it and every few ticks sync the inventory of the 2 entities. You probably don't need to even write the code yourself, just take it from 5dim trains mod.

Re: [0.12.x] The Fat Controller. Remote train management

It works fine for me in multiplayer. For me the GUI is very responsive. It is more to do with how many trains you have than it being multiplayer I think. I am deleting elements before redrawing them because of a bug that was patched in 0.12 so I need to spend the time to re-write it without the hac...

Re: [0.12.x] The Fat Controller. Remote train management

I do want to hear those warnings, just not for paused/manual trains. It doesn't make sense, since the train is controlled manually. It should assume that the player is controlling that train and thus is aware of any issues the mod is warning the player for. yeah, this is a bug. I have some time off...

Re: [Mod 0.11.x] Foreman - Blueprint Manager

Is there any chance that this mod will be updated? I'm not sure, I was thinking about it over the weekend when I updated my other mods and my plan was to rewrite it to look like a tool bar for blueprints, then it occurs to me that you can just do something like this: https://i.imgur.com/mWJI8vk.png...

Re: [0.12.x] The Fat Controller. Remote train management

Was unable to launch Fat controller in my v12 save after not playing with it for a little. If you are updating from a version of TFC from before 0.2.0 you should remove the old TFC, open the save, save the game, install the new version and see how you go. If that doesn't work post your save and I'l...

Initial version for 0.12 in the first post. Rseding has fixed the style bug so expect a new version sometime that brings back the style updates and also tracks which trains have players in them,
