New gif showing a loop

Now...I have to figure out how to make a gif. I like using http://ezgif.com/ I was hoping for any sign of usage, but it turned out that I didn't do a great job of getting people to try out my mod? Because a lack of communication? Also, it didn't help that my mod was broke for the majority of time e...

Version 0.1.2 is out! Two new changes: Charges are decreased by one a minute instead of every tick. This should allow hoverboard to work indefinitely with the proper arrangement of tiles, which means you can walk around in a literal infinite loop. :D I figured out why the mod won't work on new map: ...

Macbook is back from repair. Hairy and scary but it works...YEEAAAAAAAAH.

Anyway, bug confirmed for the mod.

Are the different type of robots modular? I haven't tried out the mod yet as I have other projects I am working on. If the robots aren't modular, I think it's possible to make them modulars by making them full blown characters. Also, maybe you could have APC to transport robots. Would that increase ...

Anyone also running in the same problem?

Still haven't got around to fixing and writing new code yet, though.

I would say, I will always decide to use turrets without that, cause they have only disadvantages compared to the current turrets. And now? :) This is why I suggested implementing field effects to make them more effective to compensate. IRL, the machine gun is frequently used for suppressive fire, ...

Turrets have an angle-speed; this is used in some mods (AFAIK). You can also create/mod weapons, that have missiles, which explode like grenades. So from THAT side it can be said it is nearly implemented (can be used). Could you explain why the turrets should have a lag in the rotation, how does it...

Rotation seems instant. But I think it would be interesting if they have some lag in rotating the turrets. This way biters could actually flank those turrets. Also, turrets will probably have to be adjusted to become area effect weapons as they are in real life, instead of 100% accuracy on one target.

I can't fix this problem right now. Something broke my mac's harddrive, so I have no dev environment right now.

I can tell you the problem appears to be related to the hoverboard not being created properly?

Hello, installed 0.1.0 but get this error message on map generation. Seems the reference to the gui.lua points nowhere.

Finally finished with the rewrite! It probably actually work in multiplayer mode now but I did not check.


It works good enough as is, though there is a known bug that the hoverboard will simply stop randomly.

You should totally use the Bomber from Creeper world as the model :P https://knucklecracker.com/wiki/doku.php?id=cw3:units:friendly Don't know what you mean by that. Anyway, it looks like that I will be writing an air force at some point in the future. Though, I want to play around writing and impr...

I am not after the count of players, just that I don't know why ipairs won't work on game.players.

Cool. I didn't know about that.

Though the donations wouldn't be enough to subsist on for a team, anyway.

Changed game.players, game.surfaces, game.entity_prototypes, game.item_prototypes, game.fluid_prototypes, force.recipes, force,technologies to use custom access + iterator objects for improved performance. I assume this means you can't use ipairs. Try using pairs or turn it into a for loop instead....

For some reason, it's not iterating through game.players every tick?

What am I doing wrong?

Don't you mean "buy"?

The dwarf fortress business model is donation, but Wube's business model is something else entirely.

Somebody will have to spend effort actually modding.

Will you?
