This reliably happens as soon as I use "mouse over a text plate" + "q" while having no text plates in my inventory. The game will crash and take me back to the Main menu. (I've removed all other mods and it still happens.)
Thanks, that should be fixed now.
It is, the game doesn't crash anymore. But now, this feature isn't working anymore:
Code: Select all
Version: 0.4.4
Features:
- Manually placing a blank text plate over a ghost text plate places the symbol of the ghost.
I'm feeling bad now, spoiling your weekend with so many complaints. If you want to, just announce in the next version that this feature doesn't work.

I like atom, but it does like adding spaces a little too much. I guess I'll have to show invisible characters from now on otherwise this will keep happening.
I didn't know even atom, had to google it! Well, I don't have a github account either, using vi mainly if I have to edit just a single file. But I know what you mean: Even if you know the rules, it is too easy to break them by mistake. White space is the fiend! White space is to changelog authors what trees are to the Factorian.

Hmmm... it is still working for me.
The "blank" one is the one on the top left of the symbol selection that places random symbols if not placed on a ghost. I think I should update the tooltip to "Wildcard (Inherits ghosts symbols)" or something.

Ooops, my mistake!

I meant an empty text plate. However, I only had 3 empty text plates in my inventory when I did the test. I've spent them on a ghost I'd just put down. After that, I used the pipette tool to select a letter and put it down. But as I didn't have any textplates left in my inventory, I actually put down the ghost of an empty text plate instead of a real one with the selected letter without realizing that it was just a ghost. Sorry, and thanks for the fix!

No problem, this is much better than bugs going unreported.

The textplate ghosts work now. With the latest version I haven't had any more bot problems, and I like being able to place plates over ghosts manually in the pre-bot game.
However, I've noticed lag when manually placing plates over a ghost. There's a roughly 15 FPS/UPS drop per plate placed, so stamping down a word can freeze up the game for a couple seconds. Looks like it might be related to the rendering as the plate shows as a square for a brief bit before changing to the right letter/symbol. We've seen this in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Other players in the game are affected even if they're viewing stuff across the map when I put plates down.
It only happens when manually placing plates over a ghost. Placing plates with no ghost is fine. Placing plates via bots is fine (even over ghosts).
Edit: Now that I've said it's 100% reproducible it ends up being not 100% reproducible. Maybe it has something to do with how many active map chunks there are?

Text Plates
Excuse me for writing a request here (I failed to register an account in discordapp).
Could you add some plates in
red color? It doesn't need to be blood red, just kind of red. I’d like to write a few texts for caution in my base.
Thank you.

Any chance you could make the uranium text plates glow? That would be awesome.
Accents

Could you please add tiles for caron (ˇ) and accute(´) and other accents ( ¨ , etc. ). Player could place them above a letter to add accent. Otherwise there is no way to write ě, š, č, ř, ž, ý, á, é, ü, ö, ů, ...
Thanks

Bug report: I was ran over by a train while placing the text plates. When I re-spawned I had no way of closing the text chooser dialog.

Hmm, no upgrade planner compatibility ? (To switch colors...)

Not the author, but unzipping the mod and replacing line 266 of control.lua with
Code: Select all
for character, symbol in pairs(added_mappings or {}) do
should at least fix the immediate crash.
