... I am working on updating my mods to new version. But I found the default GUI style have changed. Notably, the button has gone unnecessarily elongated, which makes my 0.16 code looks bad. How could I adjust the button width? Basically, you have to define a custom style in the data stage... thoug...

Thank you. Though the shrinked text button does not look as nice as in 0.16, like font change, button background colour, etc. I cannot find any documentation on default styles, so cannot mimic the original style fully. Anyway, I will instead use a sprite button here, sounds much easier than fighting...

How could I adjust the width of "button" type?

Not a bug report but suggestion. The new logistics boxes are not so distinguishable with my eyes, especially between the green buffer chest and blue requester chest. It is especially bad with a yellowish logistic area overlay (when holding a logistics chest, trying to replace...) I did NOT have such...

Just finished the tutorial campaign.
The biter waves are really big hordes and frequent! 7-8 turrets on each side and just barely hold biters at bay. I already have 12 furnaces for iron plates, and the ammo amount barely suffice.

Wonder if truly new players can handle that?

Shifting collision box will make a bigger problem, so I guess I will take the current solution.
Thanks for the big helps!

EDIT:
It works now! Thank you!

But then there is a minor problem comes out. The icon looks a bit too low, because of the projection I guess. Is there a way to shift that?

Hi, I am trying to make some large assembling machine, but the Alt-mode info icon (showing recipe) is still having the default size, so quite tiny and not easily seen. Is there a way to scale it up? MachineScaling.jpg Left: Original assembling machine 3 Right: Scaled up to 9×9 PS: I know there is a ...

FFF #237 had mentioned about using icons (by sprite path) in station names, but that is not shown in these two recent FFF on train GUI. Is it still a thing? And for the text formatting (font and color) mentioned in that same FFF, do they apply to station names as well? Can developers show us a scre...

I have successfully set invulnerability by setting after surface.create_entity line, instead of within function.

Thanks for all the help!

Thank you! Haven't thought about the land mines. :lol: There are two missing lines in order to work. I post the working code here, in case someone have the same query in the future. attack_parameters = { type = "projectile", ammo_category = "electric", cooldown = 10, projectile_c...

I have drawn a picture to illustrate what I desired, against what is done by the code above.
Simply to say, I want the attacked area fixed, no matter where the turret is targeting.

Wow! You are so talented, thinking outside the box. :idea: I have never tried modifying blueprint. This is a totally new area to me, it will take some time for me to look into that. Have a new problem though. I want to set the radar-part entity to be invulnerable or "hide" from biters. Tri...

You have to use two entities, one for the chest and one for the animation. And then a bunch of control.lua code to make sure both entities are placed and removed together. I have just tried that and it works, thanks for the suggestion. I am now using a chest entity as "main" part. And a r...

Does it mean I have to use some script to place an additional "animated entity" (like radar type) when item is placed, and remove the additional when it is mined?

I am not sure if it is tricky or not to place an entity on top of another. Can you show me some code on how to do that?

Hi all, I want to make a turret, which attack ALL enemies units within the circular area around them (like the highlighted area of a turret BUT not anything outside it). My code is as follows (which attack things outside the area), what should be changed? attack_parameters = { type = "projectil...

Hi all, I want to apply animation to a chest (something like assembling machine, radar, turret, etc). I am using entity type "container" and "logistic-container" for it. But I found out it supports only the property "picture", where I cannot use sub-properties like &quo...

It could be something like 10 stone + 1 iron stick + 1 steel plate + anything -> 1 prefabricated concrete section. "Prefabricated concrete section" sounds a lot like "wall segment" to me. Maybe they should change walls to use concrete instead of bricks. I use walls quite early, ...
