I was playing a multiplayer game, experienced a desync, and then the game immediately crashed to desktop. I don't have a clue what might have caused it. Hopefully someone can learn something from the log file. Thanks.

Thanks for the update! Since the game started comparing hashes of each mod before allowing multiplayer connections, it is no longer possible for one player to have the 1GB version while another has the full version. Have you thought of any ways around this?

Blueprints or FARL, currently. Perhaps if you have large power poles, put the signals next to them?

Or perhaps we can have draggable signals?

Part of the problem we are having in visualizing the train problem is because the cars overlap their squares when horizontal, but not vertical. No entity should overlap to the left or right, but anything with height should overlap what's behind (above) it. This is currently done for some objects but ...

The smart inserters are messed up also.

Fast and long look ok.

Thanks for your hard work, this is one of my favorite mods!

I was watching a livestream using Steam broadcast, and I noticed that nearly all entities have misaligned colors. I can see a greyscale image of the entity with the colors below it. Notably, the yellow inserters look normal. That shows that there is no problem with the stream.

Well, it's working now. I'm not sure what was wrong but I deleted mod_list.json and fixed it. Thanks!

Unfortunately, I can't get the latest version to work in multiplayer. The joining computer gets a message that mod configuration doesn't match, even when both computers have the same version.

Thanks! Looks great! Unfortunately, I can't get it it to work in multiplayer. The joining computer gets a message that mod configuration doesn't match.

What's with that weird spike in the graph between length 500-600?

Awesome! Do you think you can revise the recipes so the outputs are reversed also?

JorgenRe, I tried your version in a multiplayer game and it crashed the game. The error message was: "Error while running the event handler: _ _Transformator_ _/control.lua:74: attempt to index global 'builder' (a nil value)"

This is a great mod. Could you change the bots' color do they stand out from the buildings?

I would say, let it as it is.

Why ? for my opinion;

A.) If you want to use/abuse it. You can.
B.) if you dont want to, you can simply did not use the Module.


I agree. If it feels like cheating to you, don't do it. Otherwise it sounds like too much work to make it compatible with every other ...

Or if you don't want to use trees, make synthetic wood and resin from heavy oil. If you are running low on oil, use coal cracking to heavy oil, most maps have more coal than oil.

My brother and I have been playing with Bob's Mods for some time. We are really enjoying the additional complexity. After finishing the game, there's not much replay value in the vanilla game.
Here we have electronic circuit production: (Hit Ctrl+Minus to see the whole image)

Hey bob, would you consider making the images for the pipes smaller or larger, in order to distinguish between the different sizes of pipes? With so many types of pipes, it's hard to remember which is which. Thanks!

I've never really used solid fuel. There's always an abundance of coal, even on a map with sparse resources. And generally I start switching to solar power before my power needs get enormous. So coal will only be used for making plastic and carbon and stuff like that. Also, after this picture was ...

We've made a factory setup to make Electronic Circuit Boards. What a mind bender. Every time we thought we were done, we discovered something else was missing. Still, it's quite fun. This can make 45/min using lvl2 assemblers.

My brother and I are having endless fun with these mods. I noticed that only the Beacon MK2 & 3 uses the "Basic Electronic Circuit Boards." Is this by design, or a mistake? I think it is odd to have something in there that is barely used. Also, are there any charts that show how the materials are ...
