Just for information: I do not create a mod, only a scenario. If I use the function create_random_generator, then I get the same value each time. . local function on_tick( event ) if game.tick % 60 == 0 then local generator = game.create_random_generator() game.print( generator( 1, 1000 ) ) end end ...

To create a map, I need a few random values, in a few tests, I encountered a strange behavior of the function math.random. Which only generates a random value as soon as I move. Is there another way to create random numbers?

I found the part of the program in the mod NiceFill, only somehow it does not work anymore. The program part generates the following error: attempt to index field 'property_expression_names' (a nil value) But I have a success to report, following ensures that no rocks are generated. map_gen_settings...

What do I have to do to apply it?

My new approach: local function on_tick( event ) if game.tick % 30 == 0 and table_of_cause_damages ~= nil then for _, item in pairs( table_of_cause_damages ) do item.surface.create_entity( { name = 'flying-text', position = item.position, text = math.ceil( item.damage ), color = { r = 255, g = 0, b ...

Why is the function "event.on_entity_damaged" called twice, although I only do one damage? . local function on_entity_damaged( event ) if event.entity.name == 'tank' then event.entity.surface.create_entity( { name = 'flying-text', position = event.entity.position, text = event.final_damage...

What is the property to tell the map generator not to create rocks? . local map_gen_settings = {} -- map_gen_settings.default_enable_all_autoplace_controls = false map_gen_settings.autoplace_controls = { [ 'coal' ] = { frequency = 'none', size = 'none', richness = 'none' }, [ 'stone' ] = { frequency...

Sure.

It is actually the file "blueprint-storage.dat", which is 6.93 MByte in size. After I renamed the file and started a map, I was able to move directly.

Of course, I could make sure that the blueprint directory gets smaller. Or is it possible to change this behavior?

In the settings, I have determined that the map is only 10x10 large, because I want to test something and need a blank map. What functions make the freeze and what can I do to stop it?

Is there a keyboard shortcut that I can press to quickly remove modules from a factory?

If I have a free hand, hold ctrl and click on a becon, the modules contained there are taken.

The following scenario is "Infinite Madness", starting in a small ring surrounded by an enemy stone ring used not to be overrun by the biter. At one point, the ring is opened to collect more raw materials. And of course, to push the biter back. By shooting down the biter you get coins, whi...

I like the principle behind the map, only I miss a few management options. At the beginning there should only be one basis, the name is finally "Team Production". If a player in the lobby decides he wants his own base, he can choose that before a round. Then there should be a standby query...

How many walls does a black bottle need? If it needs 4 or more then it's probably just waiting for one more wall. I have to refute the thought, in the box were enough other walls. Two are needed. After removing the broken wall, production continued as normal. I can also explain why it happened, som...

I just had to realize that my production had come to a halt. This was caused by two damaged walls in the assembly lines for black bottles. I used to know that, for example, damaged production lines were processed. Either prevent robots from picking up the broken walls or allowing the walls to be pro...

I like the scenario, but it gets boring quickly. Nothing needs to be researched anymore and the robots do the work for you. With a small smelting and an ammunition ring, the silo can be easily defended, if you then use the upgrades, then you can just overrun the biter. It's easy to play on a headles...

I agree, I think it would be nice if you could save the data there.

Problem solved: missing file /opt/factorio/server-adminlist.json, which was not created.

I start a server with the following command, only in the game I lack the permission to start the round, although I am deposited with server-settings.json. /opt/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-scenario wave-defense --server-settings /opt/factorio/data/server-settings.json 20190227121716...
