Hi, everyone. This is my first attempt at modding a game, not simply using mods. This may have already been done, but this is my interpretation.

Enjoy ^-^

Upgrade

Best Logo Ever

A simple little script mod that adds recipes to create more advanced entities using precursor technology entities, similar to how inserters
and assembling machines work. This mod can be used on loaded saves as well.

Nice.
I just planned to start script this mod for me, but you did the work. Great.

~~Do you have also the burner inserter upgrade?~~
Checked it out, no you have not :/

Maybe you like to add it? And maybe Bobs long burner inserter?

Greetings steinio

~~Just did the burner inserter... looking right now into how to detect other mods.~~

Okay, I made version 1.0.1. Let me know if it all works well, especially with Bob's Logistics. Enjoy ^-^

EDIT: If you have any requests, let me know.

I do not have this error... and I am certain that I have the latest version on Steam. However, after reviewing the patch notes for 13.0, I think I know what the problem is. There have been some naming schemes that have changed as of 13.x which will break this mod. Therefore, I would like you to do something for me:

Find this in Upgrade_1.0.1\prototypes\recipe.lua of your Upgrade mod.

Code: Select all

...
{
    type = "recipe",
    name = "drill-burner-electric",
	energy_required = 3,
    enabled = true,
    ingredients = 
    {
      {"burner-mining-drill", 1},
      {"electronic-circuit", 3},
	  {"iron-gear-wheel", 2},
	  {"iron-plate", 7}
    },
    result = "basic-mining-drill"
  },
...

Then, replace "basic-mining-drill" with "electric-mining-drill". It should work (in theory).

Nope, i think all recipes gonna need revision for 0.13...

Mhmm... you are right. Should be fixed now. Apologies.

Hi, the mods work now, but i noticed there is a detail with bobs logistics:

in the bobs recipe on inserter for example its uses "Basic circuit board", but the upgrade recipe uses "Electronic circuit" which in bobs its a tier higher. I think happens with upgrade electric drill too.

Posted: **Sat Jul 23, 2016 1:14 am**

Updated and distinguished the downloads. Should now follow Bob's Mods rule set.

I'll work on the electric Drill asap.

I just tested the 2.1.0 and the problem persist.

Code: Select all

{
    type = "recipe",
    name = "drill-burner-electric",
	energy_required = 3,
    enabled = true,
    ingredients = 
    {
      {"burner-mining-drill", 1},
      {"electronic-circuit", 3},
	  {"iron-gear-wheel", 2},
	  {"iron-plate", 7}
    },
    result = "electric-mining-drill"
  },
  {
    type = "recipe",
    name = "inserter-burner-basic",
	energy_required = 1,
    enabled = true,
    ingredients = 
    {
      {"burner-inserter", 1},
      {"electronic-circuit", 1}
    },
    result = "inserter"
  }
})

i see the recipe and i think then maybe with an option like " if there is bobs electronics active then use "Basic circuit board" instead of "Electronic circuit" (sorry for the basic concept but i´m noob in lua).

~~I'm revamping the code and I am fixing this... I'll get back to you soon.~~
I have updated the code, fixed the recipes to see if bob's mods are active, and added a KS_Power recipe.

Posted: **Sun Jul 24, 2016 8:21 pm**

the bobs-mods.lua has typos in the recipes, there is the corrected version (i don't use KS so that section is untested.)

Posted: **Sun Jul 24, 2016 11:12 pm**

I see the issue. Minor typo, my bad. Fixed.

Posting to say this has been updated to 0.14.X.

Enjoy

EDIT: If you have any suggestions, let me know here or on the mods.factorio.com thread.

A poll has been made for those wanting a way to upgrade wooden to iron to steel chests.
