I think, if it specified the names as "[1]" and "[2]", a person familiar with Lua will understand those are indices.

I don’t think that defaults need to be entirely localized to the structure. Especially if they’re intuitive for those who have worked with the game for awhile (assemblers defaulting to electric, furnaces defaulting to burner, etc.) So you advocate for raising the entry level to modding? Not that I'...

It says type is a tuple, so probably supposed to be an array {RealOrientation, Vector}.

Alternatively, just make the default depend on the entity it's used in and make the type property properly optional in all cases.

See point one.

instead of a one-size-fits-all approach to localizing the quality tiers Is this statement in any way based on source access information or are you just guessing? There is no indication that it isn't already implemented the way you want, e.g. each tier may be its own separate item with a prototype p...

IMO, it shouldn't allow omission even if unambiguous in certain cases. To elaborate, there are two reasons for this: 1. It disrupts the locality of the definition. You have to look at the outer context to see what the default value is. 2. It makes the codebase harder to extend. Imagine some propert...

Guess what else is expensive: spill_item_stacks. Spawn item entities manually if you want something remotely performant. As a bonus, you can put an entire stack into an item entity instead of a single item. If for whatever reason you are bent on using spill_item_stacks, you should be asking for it t...

Shouldn't you want one per rotation instead?

Often when I look at mod dependencies, they appear to be sorted, but not always. Sometimes they aren't sorted or only partially. Would be great if the sorting was ensured.

Shouldn't you better be asking for an entity flag that makes it keep graphics variation on fast replace?

As part of the Space Age work we had to bite the bullet and change tiles to support up to 65'000~ tiles. It means more memory used and potentially save file size but it's now going to be there. When you eventually mark this as implemented, don't forget about https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.ph...

Prominently seen here. You click the link, it takes you to the top of the page instead of the description of draw_text the original link was pointing at.

Just want to note that this is a very valid issue, but hard to explain without an image, which the runtime docs don't support yet, so I'll likely wait on that.

"Where the target is relative to the text"? Not hard, if you ask me.

You saying that some mods didn't update after updating makes it sound related to a bug where version selection (and all other mod versions in general) is ignored if there is an unversioned folder of the mod.

When a power switch has connection to 2 electric sub networks and power switch is turned on, it causes both electric sub networks to become part of the same electric network by merging electric networks. This creates some problems because statistics you want to get are inside of the "electric ...

LuaGuiElement API has multiple string properties, which can only assume a value from a specific set. In the JSON docs these properties should have a union type of all allowed values instead of just string. Same goes for passing these properties to LuaGuiElement.add. -> Changed it for the type of Lu...
