thing is, you added a research, however, you didnt add an ammo type to any of your weapons, so its not gonna matter, the research isnt going to do anything besides making the vanilla cannon shells stronger.

just wanted to point that out, since the mod in general is really good, but without the research its not gonna matter later in the game.

i edited in my game. hell, the flame tank is a beast this way!


*edit: i'm retarded :^)

forget about the ammo type.
however, the category was kinda... off on some weapons. the flamethrower, the hydra rockets and the heavy mg.
they all had names with no research bound to them there.

stoa wrote:but right now, they are pretty much useless compared to the handheld weapons.

i mean, you can use the tank flamethrower for example, and have ok damage early, which goes to rather useless later, or use the handheld version which gets way more powerful. thats not too immersive.

gotta say tho, i'm playing with the evolution mods, so biters are stronger generally.
the point still stands tho. there is no reason to use weapons that dont get stronger with research, because there are just better counterparts

game.reload_script()

for index, force in pairs(game.forces) do
  force.reset_recipes()
  force.reset_technologies()
end

Works on a new game, but not on a save with the mod never installed.

- The heavy machine-gun, hydra rockets and tank flamethrower now benefit from vanilla Factorio research. This works with exsisting saves!

On my game, these bonus don't work.
If i switch the ammo type for these gun to the normal one, the bonus apply.

Can you check again this issue please?
