Can anyone explain how to use the ranger house?

Hey there,

your Energyconversion is not good

10 Wood (40 MJ) make 9 Charcoal (54 MJ) so this Process creates 14 MJ.

Hi there,

I tested how much Energy the Treehouses grow.
8x8 Treehouse grows 0.6 wood/s -> thats 1.2 MW @ Steamengines

Has the cutting speed for treehouse unit been altered?

I've noticed with the new version of the mod (0.1.1), it doesn't seem to cut trees at all, compared to the speed of 0.0.2.

Or, does the treehouse require charcoal to operate in any of the modes? (plant / cut & plant / cut)

Have you build worker (look like construction bots) and put them nearby to the Treehouse ?

You need bots to make a treehouse work?

Sod that... I'm going back to Vers. 0.0.2

It is nice but produces wood way way too fast. Trees don't grow this fast. What can I edit in control.lua to modify the rate of which trees grow? I want to make it something like 200 times slower so it would look like trees grow.

I've been tinkering with is to try and get it working on 0.13 - however I've got stuck on something very similar to this problem. I got as far as getting a #-1 / nil index when trying to launch bots. I think there's something fishy going on with the global.th.player_index handling but I don't know enough to see what it is. Would it be worth posting my changes to get it this far? Or are there plans to do it officially?

The rest of the 0.13 fixes were mostly mechanical - renames (get_surface() -> surfaces[], compoundcommandtype -> compound_command, updating the chemical furnace animations, the usual stuff) but I don't really understand what's going on with the event mechanisms.

Update: I've got it working. There's something odd about how global.th.player_index is interacting with events. Adding more traps for it being nil, or using event.player_index strategically seems to be enough to get it to work for me in 0.13.

Update2: I lost the ability to build steel chemical furnaces or electric chemical furnaces. It looks like these are reset when migration scripts run and the unlock wasn't being triggered as I'd already done the unlock research. I fixed it with:

hi guys, updated for 0.2.1. It works with 0.13.13 now.

Any chance this mod is still supported? Factorio is really lacking in decent tree placement mods.
