I just noticed, that LUA has no full RegEx implementation and both mine and Oktokolo's are not working. So i created one within the LUA playground: `^(.+)%-_%-.+`, this returns the same, as the first one in my last post: prefix = string.match(name, "^(.+)%-_%-.+") hover-car-0-_-driver => h...

So, `.+?(?=-_)` would match everything until `-_`, so it will return hover-car-0-_-driver => hover-car-0 Dodge-Challenger-0-_-driver => Dodge-Challenger-0 Hauling-Truck-0-_-drive => Hauling-Truck-0 hcraft-entity-0-_-driver => hcraft-entity-0 car-vehicle-machine-gun-_-driver => car-vehicle-machine-gu...

If you want to ignore the rest after the `-`, then `^[^-]+` is a way to do it. item_name = string.match("item-_-ghost", "^[^-]+") log(tostring(item_name)) item_name = string.match("item-0-_-driver", "^[^-]+") log(tostring(item_name)) This will print out `item`...

In version 9.18.13, the option `LuaStyle::extra_padding_when_activated` got removed. It would be great, if this gets readded, with the same functionality as LuaStyle::margin/LuaStyle::padding. padding :: int or array of int [Write-only] Sets top/right/bottom/left paddings to this value. An array wit...

Since we know have access to `debug` with `--instrument-mod`. Can we also get access to change `package.cpath` and `package.path`, it would make creating a remote debugger so much more simple :) we've had access to `debug` all along it turns out, Instrument Mode is a whole other set of super-powers...

These fixes where released a while ago, but i forgot to post it here

Update 1.2.2:

Fixed:

• endless "Download Factorio LuaApi" on startup
• download of lualib and core prototypes failed

You are trying to create a new prototype with data:extend. What you want to do, is override it. That is possible, by editing the data.raw table. https://wiki.factorio.com/Data.raw So, in your case: data.raw["utility-sounds"].default.alert_destroyed = { filename = "__CustomAttackSound_...

I'm not sure, but the event `on_gui_click` could help.

But when you only want to disable handcrafting, you can type `/permissions` in the chat, to open the permissions tab and there you can remove the checkbox on "Craft" to disable Handcrafting.

data:extend() expects a table of tables of Prototypes: `data:extend({prot1, prot2}). In Lua you can use `{` instead of `(` to create a table as first parameter, so `data:extend{ }` equals `data:extend({ })`. In your case, you use `data:extend(prot)`, which is not correct. You can use: data:extend( {...

Update 1.2.1:

Fixed:

• Added missing log() and table_size() functions
• Defines-Table is now available again (was defined local)
• functions and variables inside base/core Prototype definitions are not shown in auto-completion anymore.

Update 1.2.0: Added: Autocompletion for require statement. (autocompletes the path to lua files) Download the factorio lualib (https://github.com/wube/factorio-data/tree/master/core/lualib) Type infer is followed the require statements correctly to files. This is based on the two points above :) Au...

THis should be possible, with overriding the default texture with your own texture in the data stage: data.raw.wall["stone-wall"].pictures.single.layers[0].filename = "your-sd-sprite" data.raw.wall["stone-wall"].pictures.single.layers[0].hr_version.filename = "your...

inside the `util.lua` file, the `util` table is defined global and later on returned to use in the files, where it is required from. For me, that makes no sence, it should be either a local table or not getting returned. Every other file in the lualib has local tables, that getting returned. Or dont...

https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Libraries.html require() Due to the changes to package, the functionality of require() changes. When using absolute paths, the path starts at the mod root, additionally .. is disabled as a path variable. This means that it is not possible to load arbitrary files f...

As the title says, i noticed, that when adding a mod to a save, a `require` in migration scripts cause a multiplayer script-mismatch, when connecting to the server. Step by Step: download client and server create a new save without any mods add the mod attached to this bugreport start the server and...

yep, you were correct, the migration files are the problem.

As soon as i have a `require` in one migration file, the script mismatch occurs.

That is definitely a bug inside factorio, i will create a bugreport for that. Thanks for the thoughts and the help

Anybody has any idea, whats going on here?
And also that log output feels weird, like, the string concatenation is broken and not all information is printed

Update 1.1.0: Added: JSON Schema for info.json Autocompletion for Prototypes (other autocompletion mostly deactivated) completion for prototype field (only names) completion for the type literal Compatibility with Jetbrains 2019.3 IDEs Update 1.1.1: Fixed: Global Variables where defined local
