The area returned by the on_chunk_generated event is to big. It returns an area as follows: area = {left_top = {x = n*32, y = m*32}, bottom_right = {x = (n+1)*32, y = (m+1)*32}} where n and m are chunk coordinates. So for chunk position {0,0} it returns {{0,0},{32,32}}. This is too big, as seen here...

It can even be found in the data files: Factorio\data\base\prototypes\entity\demo-entities.lua, lines 1355-1365: { type = "generator", name = "steam-engine", icon = "__base__/graphics/icons/steam-engine.png", flags = {"placeable-neutral","player-creation&...

A few thoughts after using this: I found it effectively impossible to use the explosive shells in cannon turrets, as they end up absolutely wrecking my walls with the splash damage. Is there any possibility of implementing a minimum range for these turrets, so they won't shoot at targets that are t...

hummm so opened_self was player inventory opened... not very clear >.< Thanks ! I'll search if it's possible to add the button to the existing inventory gui. At least, I could show the button when inventory is opened, hide it when inventory is closed. and maybe add a configuration screen with a &qu...

Whoops, I just realized I never did this for my mod. As a side note, you have to add it to each productivity module individually, so something like this for each item: table.insert(data.raw.module["productivity-module"].limitation, "item_name") table.insert(data.raw.module["...

Have you considered using opened_self?

Don't suppose the ammo inserter will ever support modded ammo? You can support modded ammo by your own. Open control.lua in main folder (use notepad++ to make it very easy). You need to go to line 51, you will see there this function on_build_combat_inserter(inserter) inserter.insert({name = "...

Look at Factorio\data\base\prototypes\item\module.lua
There you see that the modules themselves are limited to certain items. You need to do something like:

But they aren't craftable and when you spawn them they are on your force.

I'm not sure how game.players[] work, so it could not work in multi, I still have to test it. When someone presses the button, you'll get a player_index. You can put this into game.players[player_index] instead of game.players[1]. You also want to initialise the button with the on_player_created ev...

I found a bug. When setting any item filter (Smart inserters for example) the Aliens are able to be selected for filters. Also in said alien filters the brood mother looks very humanoid, I just learned that the enemies have items that can be used to spawn them, I wasnt aware of this but it makes so...

It's a bug with VehicleSnap mod. Report it to his forum thread.

If a steam engine is not connected to something that needs power, it does nothing. While running, a steam engine makes every liquid put into it vanish at 6 per second. Power is extracted from any liquid heated above 15C. So why not just heat water to any value above 15c and push that into the engin...

Wow, I think I missed a few updates.

Fine! I'll build my own RNG! With blackjack and hookers!

Joking aside, I get the reason and I'll find a solution

The outputs aren't the same as they should:

switches.rar That's pretty neat what you did there. Mind if I borrow this for future versions? I had considered splitting this mod up into several modules or mods (especially the enemies from the rest) but decided against in the end. Hey, you can do what you want. I like to help (if I can) with the...
