Info:
The new electric / hybrid car for your base! If your factory is so big, then you need to use transport for it! This electric car need accumulators during your way. No accumulators - no energy.
It can't stuck with your buildings, but don't use it by your mining outpost.

Update to Electric Ghost Car 0.13.3, this code was added/ changed. See Mod changes in 0.13

Code: Select all

if not defines then
  require "defines"
  defines.trainstate = defines.train_state
end

http://lua-api.factorio.com/0.13.0/LuaCustomTable.html

Example
Custom tables may be iterated using pairs.
Code: Select all
for _, p in pairs(game.players) do game.player.print(p.name); end
The following will produce no output because ipairs is not supported with custom tables.
Code: Select all
for _, p in ipairs(game.players) do game.player.print(p.name); end  -- incorrect; use pairs instead
