So, nine days later, is there any news?

Thank you! This needs to be documented somewhere.

The number of request slots this entity has.

Yes, I know that. But if I am adding a custom entity type, that is irrelevant.

This is something that would seem trivial, but there is not actually a value for in the entity prototype. Can it be done, or faked with some scripting hackery (ie sending explicit requests manually)?

Basically an event for tile placement, called before the tiles are actually placed (so one can have a tile-with-variants-based-on-original-tile autoconvert to the correct variant).

I am working on adding a tile that should have either transparency (to show the "original" tile underneath) or a variant for each terrain type (the preferred option). However, I cannot figure out how to generate tiles which have multiple image layers. Normally, specifying an array of multi...

I cannot get the mod to work, mainly because any game I load with AAI Miner installed immediately crashes the entire game to the desktop. Is this a known issue?

The discussion pages for my mods are a mess. Between "hit and run" bug reports ("It crashes" with no information and no response to inquiries), user error bug reports, issues I cannot fix (API limitation, bugs in other mods) people replying to unrelated threads to post their own ...

I noticed that decoratives like bushes and those brown "reeds" disappear when buildings are placed nearby, which I would like to avoid. Can I change this, so that decoratives are never removed? I know tiles have a "chance to remove decoratives" parameter, but even basic entities ...

If you have 13+ mods (haven't checked), you can definetly get a subforum for all of your mods. The subforum will be here: https://forums.factorio.com/viewforum.php?f=95 ("Mod Compilation"), there already are some of these compilations. The only problem would be that an admin would have to...

I have 13 or so mods, with more potentially on the way; I do not want to create and check 13 separate threads, one for each mod. I would much rather have a general "Reika's mods" thread where all the mods can be discussed together, like I have done with my Minecraft mods . However, the Fac...

My own mods, as reported by others.

Basically whenever users change mods, or when a mod changes the size of an existing texture, crop-cache.dat goes out of date and needs to be manually deleted. No big deal...now try telling that to a flood of users who cannot even find the file, let alone trust you and actually delete it. Getting a g...

A way to change the crafting speed of an assembling-machine-type entity dynamically (for example, as in my case, a borehole driller that takes longer the deeper the hole) without hacks like on_tick setting the crafting progress (which cannot easily achieve the effect of an overall multiplier). Given...

Wait, it is configurable now? It did not use to be.

I use F6 as my Teamspeak mute key - and this is not subject to change - and this causes issues when I need to suddenly mute (as happens 40+ times a day given others' apparent love for interrupting me), as it turns on the debug view. Worse, when I want to unmute the speakers (by hitting F6 again), my...

Basically, certain things that are ostensibly HUD/similar are being lit/darkened as if they are in-world objects, including most Alt-view information, recipe icons, pipe connection arrows, and selection boxes: http://i.imgur.com/SIgHugZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/HomkSNt.jpg http://i.imgur.com/S5xnwog.j...

For those who may be reading, I have a workaround, but it is fairly crappy: Destroy and replace my entity if a pipe is placed nearby, making an attempt to preserve properties like fluid contents and active recipe. This works...mostly, but is still messy.

Since manually placing different rail types is a hassle, would it be too much to ask for a version/option where placing rails on concrete - or placing concrete on rails - automatically converted the rails as necessary, and where the original recipes no longer exist? That could fairly easily be done ...

Exactly as it sounds, various tree parameters: * The damage state of a tree from pollution, so it can be healed (the map-settings imply this happens automatically, but I have never seen it actually happen, despite real-world days of zero pollution). * Which "variant" of the entity it is (n...
