Thanks Orzelek & Outsider. Outsider - I'll give your code a try tonight. At work :) Do my attached edits look good? Orzelek, you need to dumb down your answers to me :oops: P.S. Good work on the Biters dying from Path Timeout! i am not sure what you are trying to accomplish with the code overal...

Why not just use a custom index for the table? when using table.insert and table.remove you have no control over the index which imho isn't good enough when you want to add/remove items based on events. you can use the entity position as a key like so : --- Add to Table if event.created_entity.name ...

Hey guys, sorry for the absence, been incredibly busy with work.. will be pushing an update that handles all the mentioned issues plus some interesting new additions and optimized code.

sorry again for the delay, the update should be up by the start of next week.

LuaLogisticNetwork.get_contents is basically a huge dump of the ENTIRE network, so its basically acting like the entire network is a giant chest. That being said it might be use to add in a switch for "in providers and storage", "in storage only" or "in providers only"...

First of all thanks for the awesome interface! there's alot of potential for cool things with the new logistic network/cell interface, unfortunately i ran into some issues and things that imho could be improved. Issues : The first issue i have encountered so far is that it seems to be counting the p...

Thank you guys for your input, Version 0.2.5 is now up! The item requirement is now removed by default, but there is a config option in "config.lua" that let's you renable it if you'd like to. Changelog Added a config option for the item requirement, with "no item required" being...

yeah an interface to the logistics network would be awesome.. but we gotta work with what we have for now and it's really inconvenient not having access to these properties anywhere. a function that let's you check if an entity is within a logistics network would be great too, an entity.in_logistics...

I was wondering if it'd be possible to get read access to some of the roboport properties, i'm mainly interested in these : logistics_radius - this is the one i really need, i use this to calculate the boundaries of the logistics network, and with no access to it i have to hardcode these values. con...

doesn't it already work that way? you can name your mod with these characters in them and you can have the same folder.. for instance my mod is named "advanced-logistics-system" the folder for the latest version is "advanced-logistics-system_0.2.4" my project on github is named &...

Option 3: slightly jack up the research cost and be done with it? :mrgreen: The character already has an interface with the logistics network (logistics slots/trash slots), so it isn't unrealistic for this information to be available through the same device he already uses to interact with that (ma...

if you want only search, can make a table with ["item-name"] = Item name for every lenguage en: leng = { en = { ["iron-ore"] = "Iron ore" }, es_ES = { ["iron-ore"] = "Mena de hierro" } fr = ...} or ["Iron ore"] = "iron-ore" ... b...

Great mod, love the insight it gives into the contents of all the storage. Don't really see the point of that required item though, I'd probably just get rid of it (the research requirement is fine though, just don't like giving up inventory space :) ) Would it somehow be possible to add the number...

There is no client. There is no server. There are only peers - peers running the full simulation of all connected players with all combined input actions per player. wow i had no idea factorio uses a p2p model for multiplayer.. i was always under the impression it uses client/server with the host b...

I'm aware that the engine only uses the actual translated text when rendering the gui, because i was desperate enough to load all the items localised names in labels in a hidden frame then tried looping through them and getting the caption values, obviously ended up with just references :) I know i ...

Thiseus wrote:Great mod! Anyway you could add support for the upgraded roboports for the Upgraded electric mod? Thanks a bunch!

Thanks, and yeah sure if you can post links to these mods i'll have a look.

except if its all client side, what I'm suggesting is where it only affects the gui. The way they already do guis is client side (as I already explained above). They already have a way to turn item names into localised names in the engine, I just want access to it. but that access won't be single c...

snip The latest release 0.2.4 should fix both issues, can you please confirm? Checked. but removing a roboport still prompts an error. http://imgur.com/sMP913K _ _ advanced-logistics-system_ _/control.lua. 510 : LuaEntity API call when LuaEntity was invalid. What is the mod you are using for the ro...

This is an awesome must have mod!
Thank you
