Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Hi, there is a bug that sometimes causes animations from previous portals never being removed. I can't figure out the repro steps, it just happens. Could you look into this please?
May be don't search for animation each time and just store its entity id instead so that no strange things may happen.

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Storing stuff is expensive which is why I'm not doing it. I'm planning a complete rework of the mod for 0.16 which should fix the issue. But without repro steps I can't help you at all, since that particular thing never occured for me.

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Luckily I haven't seen those bugs. I really use this a mod a LOT.
Thanks for this and for maintaining it for v0.16!

Here is the video of this bug https://www.dropbox.com/s/z7eipbcs3x666 ... 9.swf?dl=1
Expensive because you should not store entities at all, only their ids. This is how their serialization system works.

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
1. Entities don't have id's. Some entity types can have a unit number but that's not an id
2. Smoke can't have a unit number. I cant store something the entity doesn't have.
3. Storing a unit number doesn't help much, if i want to find the entity associated with it i have to search all surfaces everywhere which absolutely murders performance
4. What serialization by whom are you talking about?
5. Why is that file an swf? I cant open that on my phone :/ The next time I'll be near my pc is Thursday

I meant number of course.1. Entities don't have id's. Some entity types can have a unit number but that's not an id
Didn't know that.2. Smoke can't have a unit number. I cant store something the entity doesn't have.
You are right, that's a shame that there is no get_by_number function.3. Storing a unit number doesn't help much, if i want to find the entity associated with it i have to search all surfaces everywhere which absolutely murders performance
I mean if you have a table of entities stored in global they will corrupt your save at some count because of incorrect serialization making very long data (above limits).4. What serialization by whom are you talking about?
It shows that when I place a portal the label and the portal itself are created correctly under my cursor but the animation shifts 1 extra unit top-left by itself. Therefore it isn't consistent with the actual portal position and can't be found at expected position when removing.5. Why is that file an swf?

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
The entity saving in global is only a problem if you use them as table keys instead of values afaik. What you describe seems more like an issue that i have observed but believe to be the fault of the base game. What color is the animation that is misaligned? Is it orange, blue, or gray?

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Right, table keys.
Both are misaligned but it's not always. I can't figure out what affects it. I "fixed" it temporarily by editing the script to make search area bigger but the visuals are still broken.

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Well, 0.16 now allows what I need for my portals to only consist of two things, the portal itself and the label, so you can consider the animation bug fixed for 0.16

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Hi Bilka, I found a bug in this version. The portals are leaving the nunber everywhere.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/9fvnakwtyjxwo ... l.png?dl=0
I think it happens when a players click and drag to build portals.

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
That's known, and not reproducible reliably. It also happened in version 0.2.9, but I cant find the issue, since it seems to lie with the base game. Sometimes the portals place correctly, sometimes the text is offset from the portal, which is also built offset from the one in the cursor. At one point I though that it might get triggered by the player teleporting while they are placing a portal, but I havent been able to get the game into that state reliably. Here's some gifs:FerrariMAF wrote:Hi Bilka, I found a bug in this version. The portals are leaving the nunber everywhere.

You seem to have encountered the bug shown in the last gif. Ususally putting the portal gun away and saving + reloading fixes the placement issue.I'm an admin over at https://wiki.factorio.com. Feel free to contact me if there's anything wrong (or right) with it.
Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
I have found a way to reproduce the orphaned numbers in .16:
press the rotate button while holding the portal gun to make the issue appear, and rotate it again to disable the issue again, works infinitely.

Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
Please also include a way to remove the already present orphaned numbers from the current version of the mod, our world is filled with them :p
Re: [MOD 0.14 + 0.15] Portals
0.3.1 is out:
- Fixed that portals could be rotated, which lead to orphaned numbers (viewtopic.php?p=328141#p328141)
- Added a script to remove orphaned numbers from the world when it is loaded in this version, this is run automatically
- Fixed migration
