Please increase projectile "piercing damage" with ammo technology

Projectiles that do piercing damage do not scale their piercing damage with technology improvements. In vanilla, this means that basic tank shells are physically incapable of piercing two Big Biters regardless of how many technologies you've researched. This is unintuitive because each level of the ...

Setting Turret Muzzles

Setting Turret Muzzles

I'm working on a mod that adds many new types of turrets. One challenge has been figuring out how to set the turret's rotation and muzzle offset for the purposes of spawning projectiles, beams, streams, etc. It seems each type of turret uses a different set of properties ...

Re: QOL: Use a different color for the last train car ghost

Making the whole ghost train change colors when it has enough room would also help new players understand train signal mechanics. It would be more clear that spamming train signals might be a bad idea.

So revised idea, make the train ghost yellow if it doesn't fit, white if it does.

Re: QOL: Use a different color for the last train car ghost

Numbering the train cars is a good idea. It might be hard to see at large zoom levels. How about making the whole ghost green if it fits?

QOL: Use a different color for the last train car ghost

TL;DR
Use a different color or sprite for the last train ghost so we don't need to count when building tight intersections

What ?
My trains are six cars long. Without counting, is this space big enough?

If we highlight the last train car then you can tell at a glance ...

Re: What does factorio do with unused sprites?

Thanks for the help! This should make my life a lot easier. I was dreading thinking about managing dozens of tiny mods.

What does factorio do with unused sprites?

I'm trying to make a sprite pack mod that other mods can use. I don't want to create any entities, just provide art. This means there's a good chance that some of the assets would go unused if someone actually imports it as a dependency. Does anyone know what Factorio does with textures that are in ...

Re: [0.17.18] Crash when adding module to assembler using shift+left click

The useful bits of the logs appears to be:

Code: Select all

33.437 Error FluidBoxManager.cpp:445: this->doneSetup was not true
Logger::writeStacktrace skipped.
There are several bugs with the same error message. This is probably a duplicate.

Re: [0.17.18] Crash when adding module to assembler using shift+left click

I should have mentioned that I was able to add it to other assemblers just fine.

[Dominik][0.17.18] Crash when adding module to assembler using shift+left click

I experienced a reproducible crash when adding an efficiency 1 module to an electric engine assembler using shift + left click from the game world. It happened three times in a row.
