Isn't min_range specific to either turrets or maybe ammo type?

From some experimentations I was doing to get the opposite effect (allow all 4 rotations) I found that the tile_width and tile_height values seem to determine what rotations are possible.

@Arch666Angel - with the transparent border autocropping that factorio does, have you noticed any variance in entity orientation? When I was working with the wooden bridge sprites, the horizontal ones always worked fine... however the vertical ones would be cropped in strange ways and I often had to...

Does that issue apply to all the properties of a LuaTileProperties object? When I was doing the moisture overlay, it seemed to consistently show the same values as I was running round the map - for example, I could return to a previously visited location after several minutes and the overlay would l...

I would love to access the actual HUD to do stuff like add weapon slots etc. +1 I'd also like to be able to reposition those things or better still just turn them on/off in a more granular manner than is currently possible and be able to add stuff to gui.right, gui.bottom_left, gui.bottom_center an...

What aspects of it are broken? I used it in this sensor mod: https://mods.factorio.com/mods/aubergine18/evo_elev_temp (0.13 version) While testing that mod I did notice that there seemed to be no correlation between the tile property values and what was rendered on the map for the most part. Maybe i...

Really looking forward to the mod settings API

I love the fact that the fastest game on my (crappy) computer is getting even faster!

The train graphics look awesome - I just hope 0.15 still runs on my crappy 512MB graphics card (even if it means using the lower resolution graphics).

Not sure if it's related or worth investigating, but on late 2012 iMac all CPU cores utilisation increases by around 10-15% when game is paused.

Remember that the grid within tiles has a maximum resolution of 32 px / 256, so it will always snap to increments of 0.003921568627451 (or 0 if less than that number). (source)

Uploading mod to github would make it lots easier for people to see what's actually going on.

Why do you need to access via console? Just make a small mod that has a data-final-fixes and do what you want in there - eg. scanning the data.raw for info you need, then using log() and serpent() to output that infos to the log file from where you can copy/paste it or parse with external scripts.

Why don't you just scan through data.raw via a data-final-fixes.lua? This way you have full access to all prototypes (although some mods might still change them if their data-final-fixes.lua runs after yours) and can still use the `log()` and `serpent()` global functions to output the data you need ...

Can't see many ways to make it faster via Lua, other than reducing number of table lookups and variables: local red , green = defines.wire_type.red, defines.wire_type.green function GetCircuitValues( entity ) local items, wire = {} , entity.get_circuit_network( green ) if wire then for _, data in pa...

Put a comma at end of this line:

"description": "Points your vehicle north, east, south or west as desired."

should be

"description": "Points your vehicle north, east, south or west as desired.",

I assume you've seen the recent blog post on this? https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-164

For most mods it's just a case of updating the info.json file to include factorio_version. Open up one of the 0.14 mods from the portal and you can see examples. Try that and if it doesn't work, report back with error messages.

IMO Nuclear reactor explosion is the worst idea possible for Factorio as a whole. Until this time factorio was a game which could open up your creativity and did forgive you any kinds of mistakes letting you find your own way of playing it. You can also change the way you play at any moment by redo...
