I found this very useful and think advertising it a bit more makes sense: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=23181 Factorio Standard Library Project I hope it is still maintained, cause the thread looks orphaned. Yes, it is absolutely still maintained. The thread location is not i...

I have looked into this code (great code, really well programmed!) and have a question about the epsilon, that is used to determine for example, if two float-number are zero. (for example Area/Position). I thought (and it's my current opinion), that Factorio uses fixed floating point numbers (8 bit...

Slimey wrote:Are you planning on upgrading this to 0.14?

All the concrete changes in 0.13 made this complicated to update, and then I got busy with life. I can't promise I will update it, as much as I'd like to.

Code is open source, any entrepreneurial spirit can submit a PR with fixes if they want.

Lately I was experimenting again with writing mods. With 0.13 it seems, that defines.lua is removed from data/core, but seems to be "silently" required - I think some internal stuff, nice. :) My problem with this: I found the defines.lue super-practical, cause my IDE was able to interpret...

Yep.

I was on vacation, but I am back. Expect an update in 24 hours.

Essentially what you really need is a way to schedule lazy execution of certain code when the game has free time slices available. Right now there isn't a way to do that, and I gather what @sebgggg is asking for would let him build one. Sure, code execution can be smeared over on_tick but that's not...

Yay, library with functionality! Advanced stuff like "Astar pathfinding", "UI templating and automation" would be surely of use. Not everytime, but whenever there's need for them, these functions will be a huge boon. Someday I might even use the library with those. And documenta...

*Points at silly users.*

I agree completely.

Rseding91 wrote:The actual solution: we don't have one yet. The file system library we use doesn't work correctly with symlinks. It's a known issue.

Yeah. I've got no easy answers either.

Factorio Standard Library 0.6.0 has been released, with a ton of changes and several new contributors! Special thanks to credomane on his work for the GUI event system!

Bizobinator wrote:A quick request: would it be possible to extend the "fuel values halved" to the Bio Industries mod? It adds Coke Coal, which has 18MJ fuel value. I've manually dropped it to 9MJ, but it would be nice to have support for future editions if possible

Absolutely.

Bug: Factorio game.write_file('foo', 'bar') or any combination of API calls to game.write_file fails if the user has symlinked the script-output directory to another location. No mods are required to reproduce, console commands show the error as well. Steps to reproduce: 1. Symlink (or Hardlink on W...

Btw, a typo in the log.lua file is driving me nuts every time I see it. It really needs a period or some other form of punctuation after "Creates a new logger object". The way it reads now is you create the logger in debug mode. Creates a new logger object In debug mode, the logger writes...

I made the mod Dynamic Expansion back in the day, at the time I had entertained the idea of eventually making something like this, but I got distracted by other things. I don't think I could ever have accomplished anything as cool as this though :D Damn, it's you! I started this mod because of your...

Your standard library's logging tool saved my butt. Thank you. :D I still haven't learned the rest of your library yet, but it will do for now. Glad you found it useful! Check out the index of the docs sometimes, it's very easy to use all of the modules: http://afforess.github.io/Factorio-Stdlib/in...

For the love of all things holy, please don't update this mod. It is dangerous, will crash your game in spectacular ways, and should not be used or installed by anyone.
