[0.18.24] choose-elem-button missing some signals

Post by moon69 »

signal-everything, signal-anything, signal-each are missing from LuaGuiElement.add→choose-elem-button→elem_type=signal

I don't remember if they were missing in the past or not.

Being able to select these meta-signals breaks some functionality, since they are not valid, e.g. in a constant combinator.

According to the documentation, a choose-elem-button of type signal does not support any filters. I think it would be useful to support the ability to choose whether the meta signals are selectable or not via filter.

Being able to select signals in a mod GUI that does zero logic when they're selected doesn't break anything. It's up to the mod to break something by doing some poor logic - if the mod wants to do that poor logic.

As for being able to filter that list - please make a mod API request for it.
