Isn't effective behavior? What do you mean by that? I see no use for the camera element where it is better for the camera not to scale with the GUI. Wouldn't it be the most reasonable behavior for the camera to scale with the GUI?

Since I cannot read a player's gui scale setting, and the camera ...

Recently I've added a preview feature to Factorissimo2 that allows you to see what's inside your factory buildings by hovering over them. This creates a new camera GUI element, but I'm faced with the problem of where to put it. If I put it in gui.top, or gui.left, it will either be to the right of a ...

It seems that none of you have actually taken a look at the scenario I provided. It automatically logs every single on_biter_base_built event with its coordinates and quadrant. As you can see from the scenario log I provided, and also as you can literally watch happening if you have show_enemy ...

Klonan, I'm not talking about worldgen, I'm talking about biter expansion, the part where biters group together and build new nests while the game is running.

Biters seem to build new nests (not the worldgen ones, Klonan!) almost exclusively in the northern hemisphere.

This bug may have been in the game for a very long time already, I think this has happened in all the worlds I've played, even in 0.12. After having this happen to ridiculous extents in my ...

A camera GUI element's zoom does not change with the GUI scale setting in the options menu. This means that reducing the GUI scale makes the camera element show less of the map.

This is an issue when I need the camera to show a specific area of the map.

If a fluidbox contains no fluid, get_capacity() returns zero, otherwise the proper capacity. Tested on pipes, tanks, pumps and boilers.

entity.fluidbox.get_capacity(i) and entity.fluidbox.get_connections(i) returns the capacity/connections of the (i+1)st fluid box

Example: To get the contents of a boiler's fluidboxes, you use boiler.fluidbox[1] and boiler.fluidbox[2]. To get their capacities, currently you need to use boiler ...

AAI Programmable Vehicles uses a "fire" type entity to provide an autonomous vehicle with light, sound and pollution. Basically all we would need is an entity that can teleport around and produce light and sound (we can place pollution manually). However, your response does make me rather curious ...

Well okay then. Guess I'll have to add some performance warnings. Thanks for the response!

I already tested that commenting out the second line makes the 0.1ms per signal go away completely , so either the majority of those 0.1ms is spent translating one single signal (two tables with four entries total) from Lua into C++ (which I sorta doubt because Lua can't be that slow), or there's ...

Constant combinators can have their signals set through the API, like this:


local control_behavior = some_constant_combinator_entity.get_or_create_control_behavior()
control_behavior.parameters = {parameters = table_of_signals}


Unfortunately a single write to control_behavior.parameters takes ...

I want to use the pipe connections to see where the entity could connect to Factorissimo ports. So I don't actually need the entities the fluidbox is connected to, but rather the locations of the potential connections. Right now, as a workaround, I just copy-paste the connection information directly ...

I would like the ability to read-access the properties of fluid boxes of an entity (via its entity.prototype), specifically their base_area (or just the capacity in fluid units) and their pipe_connections.

Even though achievements are disabled in scenarios or campaigns, the first lua /c command in a scenario world has to be entered twice. This confirmation should only be required when achievements are actually available.

The world has two parts: west and east, divided by a measly stone wall. The west half of the world has been colonized, there are no biters at all. However, resources are ...

Map player icons should only be shown for players that are currently on the same surface as you.

Right now, when two players are on different surfaces in multiplayer, the map shows the other player's position by simply taking his coordinates on his surface and displaying him at those coordinates ...
