Crash when using "entity-preview" gui element

[GalactusX31]

I need to know how to use / implement this gui element for my mod; In the wiki and api page there is no information about the use of this, and every time I try to add it and use it, my game crashes and throws me off.

I have tried to find information about it, but I have not been able to find it anywhere, I would appreciate someone showing me how it can be done to have a preview of the selected entity, as does factorio.

Thanks

Code: Select all

/c entity = game.player.selected game.player.gui.center.add{type = "entity-preview", entity = entity}

Thanks for the report. It's now fixed for the next version of 0.16.

Odd. It worked fine when i tested it when it was first added.

If you set a style on it, i think it would work

[GalactusX31]

I can confirm, that even if I put a style to that element, it keeps crashing the game

[GalactusX31]

Nvm, problem solved, thanks

@0.16.26:

The example code supplied by Klonan that assigns the entity directly when creating the gui element doesn't work for me. It only creates an empty entity-preview. The only way i can get an entity to actually show up in the preview is by assigning the entity after creating the gui element. Would be nice if assignment on creation worked.

Code: Select all

/c
g = game.player.gui.center
g.clear()
entity = game.player.selected
ep = g.add{type = "entity-preview", entity = entity}
ep.entity = entity --[[created empty without this]]

Assignment on creation isn't supported and never will be.

Oh. Well. Then i was just confued by Klonans example code :P. Thanks for the hint.
