RatioTree

# RatioTree

This is a mod for ratio fanatics and newbies trying to figure out what ratios they want to be using. In-game you will be offered a button which has the ability to produce RatioTrees. They calculate automatically how many assemblers you need according to the recipe you want to produce. The latest tech is also taken into account to produce result currently relevant. When there are multiple ways to obtain the same product the option will be presented to change the recipe at that critical juncture.

### I just tested some angels mods and for the angels users, don't ever ever turn bound off because some resources break my mod.

##Version 0.0.8 (7-06-17)

bugfix: resources which aren't processed as actual resources (aka: water) don't break the mod anymore. Instead they just display their raw need. I will do a better fix over the weekend.

##Version 0.07 (6-06-17)

bugfix: fixed bug for mod compatibility.

##Version 0.06 (6-06-17)

bugfix: fixed crash when searching per second with nil value.
bugfix: it now technically works with reverse factorio but since it adds so many choices searching is very expensive.
tweak: Choice-points list now all results properly and I removed the sprite icons because they didn't fit.
tweak: Loop prevention is now a lot simpler and shows more results.
added: miner and pump-jack math, it assumes lowest productivity.
added: setting are now saved between loads
Note: advanced settings are going to be expanded (with miners) in the future and are currently not saved.
Note: there are a few resources which aren't actual resources on the map but can be generated out of thin air which currently crash my mod. Hardcoded them (water) for vanilla but with some mods (like angels) it will crash.

## Version 0.0.4 and 0.0.5 (29-05-17)

fixed small bug where advanced options didn't influence production per second input.
It is time to get some sleep... Comitted the wrong file in version 0.0.4.

## Version 0.03 (29-05-17)

bugfix: game doesn't crash anymore when searching something that doesn't exist
tweak: the amount of products are now taken into account when searching for recipes with one product
tweak: default for choice points is now the recipe with the least amount of ingredients
added: A save button so you can pin your tree to the side (not the settings yet)
added: Advanced options so you can see for yourself which assemblers it uses for which recipe and change it.
added: lots of tooltips including the native names of icons when displaying the tree.

Notes: the interface is a bit jumpy now but I wanted to release this version first before tackling that.
Notes: the fact that settings don't get saved will be fixed for the next version.
Notes: still waiting for luacall to implement miners and pumpjacks

## Version 0.0.2 (26-05-17)

I need to wait until the devs implement a certain luaCall before i can implement number of miners and pumpjacks.
bugfix: you can now save
bugfix: recipes with multiple products can also be requested now

## Version 0.0.1 (26-05-17)

Launch for version factorio 15
Notes:
Miners and pumping jacks aren't calculated yet.
Not tested for multiplayer yet.
You can't save yet because of a runaway global.

Hey. Just wanted to say this looks fantastic. I didnt know I needed this but it is such a great idea. What can be automated should be automated after all.

Are you planning to include productivity modules and speed modules? Especially Productivity modules screw the ratios quite a bit. Once you do that I wont be able to play without this mod

Also if you have time you could display the icon of the assembler for each recipe as a small icon near the icon of the item in the tree, but that's just qol.

Is there anything else you have planned and are willing to reveal?

[kikker450]

Thank you, Productivity and speed modules can be done but the gui will be a lot more complicated and every change would require regenerating the whole tree again. I will first look into a helmod plugin to just fill in a production line for you with the correct values so you can add beacons and modules yourself. Won't be this weekend though.

That's a good idea, I would need custom guistyles though since small icons don't look well when 3/4 is empty frame around it.

Announcement would be custom guistyles, soon, maybe? (we'll see in 2 weeks) Kind of have to program a robot arm to do chess, so I don't have a lot of time at the moment.

Good mod, but there are issues:

• Number of items you can select from after entering item name is very limited. For example, I can't find simple "battery" in the list with Bob's mods + others. There are multiple "battery mk[X] equipment" etc. and no actual "battery". Could be solved by sorting this list properly.
• Can't find some items at all like "Electronic circuit board" with Bob's.
• Ratios with Omnimatter mod are wrong.
• No "close" button in "Production tree" window, no reaction to "Esc"
• Entering "[abc" in text box causes game crash.
• It's confusing when multiple types of Smelters\Assemblers can craft same item, hard to tell which is used in calculations. Example: Assemblers vs Electronic Assembly machines in Bob's.

Also, maybe player should be able to select crafting machine for every item separately.

I wanted to try this mod, but when I start Factorio the mod is red. Is this mod abandoned?
