How does tech/recipe difficulty handle the default fields? namely, localised name/localised description. I'm making a mod which adjusts the cost of technologies based on their position in the tech tree, but since normal and expensive mode can have different tech trees, having a single description fo...

Ohhh this seems like a violent type of expansion. That would be cool. The general goal is to make the expansion feel like as big an addition as the whole vanilla game. This is why we plan to price it at $30.00, and put in enough content to make it well worth the price. This means that for a new pla...

(character can now walk in-between connected reactors) Nice. Could you consider an option to place other entity in the space? You know the 5x5 reactor square could make insane neighbour bonus and challenge to make plant work properly. :geek: Since it would either make the reactor effectively 3x3, o...

I'm surprised that nobody reported the music not looping for so long.
Then again, I noticed it and didn't report it, too, so perhaps?

Also, considering the default delays in the music while playing, perhaps some people assumed it's intended?

I've been trying to give my projectiles a color, but it doesn't seem to work right.
The prototype browser sprite preview DOES show them to be tinted, but if you actually look at the layer, there's no fields related to tinting, and the projectiles themselves have no tint in the overworld.

TML is not an official project by the team, it's a fan project that they are providing a bit of support to.

Removing the G allowed a call of string.find (). This looks to me like gfind is not included in the factorio string library pack.

That probabalistic output block bug was quite annoying for me.
good to see it's gone.

Does the factorio lua lib contain that function? I can't call it during data.

You could also iterate over all transport-belt type entities and find their item-to-place-this, no?

I honestly have no idea why the garbage collector went bonkers, just that it did. Without the mod, it's at 0.9. With the mod, it's over 900.
Also, it seems like it already has picker compatibility so I won't have to deal with that.

I can see why it would be bad... That mod renders 4 lights per entity basically

I'd guess that making animation for units is a lot more effort than making animations for buildings.

I'm trying to revive the hazard lights mods for my own use, and I have managed to update them to use selection tools instead of the deconstruction planner trick they had used prior, getting me past the boot stage. Unfortunately, it seems like the mod did something else really wrong during the contro...

I've been working on a mod which adds a shortcut accessed selector item, and I've noticed that shortcuts don't display localised descriptions when moussed over, even if it's defined. Now, I'm still on an older version (.19), but looking at the changelog, I don't think it was addressed at all. Is tha...

https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=92711 (TL;DR : you can't) I won't believe that. There must be some way. This is, sadly, tilting me. I'll figure out how is the menu interface is constructed - there must be a lua file I can hack or some other way. The snap-to option doesn't help....

Thx for showing me.
Also, thanks for making me aware that the git exists, should be easier to look up stuff on it instead of the serialization from the wiki (more up to date too )

How do you spesify which underground to use for the belt for fast replacing? I'm guessing it's a new field in the transport belt prototype, but it's not listed in the wiki yet, and I don't think it was listed in the new modding interfaces yet. I don't have access to the game to log serpent block the...

I've set up an armor generator that has 0.1 efficiency (and uses nuclear fuel), but it doesn't show it anywhere in the tooltip.
Does efficiency not work at all for armor generators, or is the tooltip display simply missing?

The prototype browser does show the efficiency for the equipmenmt.

We have an undo button.

Why don't we have a redu button yet? It happened way too often to me that I undid one too many, and ended up breaking something important.
