I want to add some custom stuff into factorio log.
Sure, it's possible to use write_file, but

there will be two separate contexts
no way to obtain real timestamp(whole factorio output is redirecting to system journal in my case, so there is current time)
file will be reopened every write

game.forces["enemy"].set_cease_fire(your_force, true)

It is not exact same as peaceful mode though: you will not get attacked even if shot first.

What about locomotives and wagons?
It could be interesting if they will have specialized assembles with output right to rails, but setting up of trains will become nightmare.

Problem on you last screenshot is coming from difference between generation algorithms in versions where you started this game and current one. I doubt you could fix such troubles unless you propose generation based on neighboring chunks, which will require much more calculations... Anyways you coul...

Unicorn ore. I do not know, how it could be userfull, but graphics can be awesome.
Seriously: what will be a point of new ores without production lines? Wrong position for start i think.

I'm looking forward for it.

In case problem is installation-specific(though vanilla map looks fine): i'm using steam version on arch linux.
Common log in attachment, "bwater" is my test mod.

Sounds interesting. I have some possible additions: Lower capacity of wagons for faster escalation of challenge Self-powered outposts(at least part of them), which will require fuel or steam supplies Mixed load/unload stations, where positions of wagons matters More ambitious stuff: Weight of cargo,...

I solved it for the next version by automatically sorting all the ingredients in a recipe.

By what will it be sorted?
I think raw time for components would be best option.

Source of ore have nothing to do with chance of u235 output. I seems you are just unlucky.
Try to set up Kovarex enrichment, you do not have to worry about chances with it.

You have different settings on power switch for heavy oil cracking, i guess it can be your problem.

I tried to mod map generation and encountered very weird behavior of noise expressions.
Check this topic for details.

Probably there is a bug in expressions compiler.

Make it also majorly heavier and it will become strongest endgame enemy, which wreaks havoc all over you base %)

I tried to play around little more and ended up with even higher level of puzzlement. make_multioctave_noise_function(map.seed, 11, 2)(x, y, 1, 1) provides me constant 0.4, make_multioctave_noise_function(map.seed, 11, 2)(x, y, 1, 1) + 1 results in actual noise. At this point i have nothing but &quo...

betrok

Hm, may be it is unclear what i'm talking about. Main problem is that basis noise becomes just zero everywhere suddenly when inscale >= 1 and any addition arithmetic is involved. So make_basis_noise_function(map.seed, 11)(x, y, 2, 1) works fine by its own, make_basis_noise_function(map.seed, 11)(x, ...

I have to admit, that i fail to master this black magic on my own. It's time to go cry^W^W ask for help here. All documentation, which i managed to find, is limited to this gist and actual game files. Well, practice is the best of all instructors, here we go: data:extend{ { type = "noise-expres...

betrok

make_multioctave_noise_function() is defined twice in data/core/prototypes/noise-programs.lua

Definitions are identical, so nothing is broken at the moment.

betrok

Hm, makes sence, game itself do not need to cache it... It seams i need to investigate autoplace system deeper, everythink what i want to do for now should be possible with it after all. But i still think, that at least "chunk-wide generic noise blob" could be very userfull for mods. Thank...

Raw noise values for any given coordinates.

Something like

Code: Select all

game.noise_layers[name].get(position) -> double

betrok

So, factorio has fast system of noise layers, but i can not see any way to use it apart from autoplace.

Can it be exposed in mod api?
