in version 2.0 what changed "game.entity prototypes"

How can I get prototypes


I wrote a porting guide which will help you answer these questions: https://github.com/tburrows13/factorio-2.0-mod-porting-guide

Specifically, try Control+F searching for "entity_prototypes" in https://github.com ...

In case you hadn’t realised, SegmentedUnits are exclusively Demolishers on Vulcanus

Just set the indicator scale to 0: https://github.com/notnotmelon/maraxsis ... 9d5551d7c8

I would also prefer that this 2.0 change be reverted and a separate 'would mine() succeed' API be added instead if need be. I have some code which needs to check to see if a mod has specifically set a vehicle to be un-minable, but I can't detect the difference between a mod having set `vehicle ...

Well, Iron ore does not have a diamond in the Factoriopedia, yet appears to be able to have quality.

Perhaps it could be said that this is not an entity, item or equipment.

But it is confusing. And the only reason I know iron ore can have quality is ...

What exactly happens when i activate the DLC?
I have a save file with over 350 realtime hours played, so obviously I want to be 100% shure that the DLC doesn't kill it.

As no one else was actually answering your question....


I don't understand what this situation is where somebody would ...

Thanks for the report, this is a duplicate of https://forums.factorio.com/117194.


Thanks for the quick response, although that's unfortunate.
Sure I can do

Nope, currently you can only specify a single spoil_result, unless you do more complex shenanigans with spoil_to_trigger_result.

(Additionally, it doesn't sound like they are using their philosophy of "we must make it worth the price" with SA. They are going to work on it a bit more and then drop it, from the last FFF. Not iterate on it for a long time like they did with the base game.)


They’ve been iterating on it for ...

Also, could you tell me why LuaBootstrap.generate_event_name is still available? It's a bit confusing to have two techniques to achieve the same thing (define a custom event). My guess is, it's still there for backwards compatibility but may be removed in the future – can you confirm that, or is ...

I have two sets of buildability rules I set up for plants - one that works on water tiles that don't collide with the player (so the plant can be placed in shallows), and one for a set of tiles I've tagged with a special collision layer (for something I want to grow on land, but not into concrete ...

Agreed, when I first used it I expected it to remove the ring around the planet, rather than around the sun.

For whatever reason, they are added to the landfill item's `tile_condition` in space-age/base-data-updates.lua. Any reason why they can't be included directly in base/item.lua?

I don’t know about you all, but I can’t help feeling a bit disappointed that we didn’t get one final planet focused purely on intense combat. Imagine a “hell on earth” scenario where you’re swarmed by endless enemies and forced to expand while fighting tooth and nail to survive. Don’t get me wrong ...

The subject says most of the details. If I full screen factorio, and either let the self-update run, or adjust mods and factorio restarts itself, the old factorio window lurks as a full-screen "pane". I can't interact with it, and I can't close it, it just takes up a workspace while the new window ...

Why are there odd vertical gridsizes with quality armor? Pretty much all equipment has an even size, so there is a completely pointless empty row when populating a vertically odd-sized armor. Armor quality progression would be much smoother, if the vertical grid size was even.

Alternatively, if ...

I'm having issues with inserters picking up bioflux, it spoiling mid-swing, and then the inserter can't stick the spoilage into the destination. This causes the inserter to hang trying to insert spoilage.

At first I thought I could just use another inserter with a spoilage filter to access the ...

Since you are on linux I wonder if this could be caused by the fix for 120128 perhaps?
