I strongly think this should be implemented in the game.

Without even looking, I know this is a very simple mod.

I strongly think this should be implemented in the game.

Me too.

I've missed this capability in my games but never came to the idea to work it out myself
Good idea though! I'm sertainly gonna test your mod, WildWolf.

[WildWolf]

Yes it is a verry simple mod since I only add a line in each pole for replacing them.

And i aggre that this should be in the game.

Hi WildWolf

Firstly this is a great mod, but you have alot of code that's just taking up space, and can possibly interfere with other mods. You copied the complete codes for the entities when all that is needed is four lines of code.

Try this out. Replace what is in your entity.lua with this code in instead.

Code: Select all

data.raw["electric-pole"]["small-electric-pole"].fast_replaceable_group = "electric-pole-1x1"
data.raw["electric-pole"]["medium-electric-pole"].fast_replaceable_group = "electric-pole-1x1"
data.raw["electric-pole"]["big-electric-pole"].fast_replaceable_group = "electric-pole-2x2"
data.raw["electric-pole"]["substation"].fast_replaceable_group = "electric-pole-2x2"

Second, your .zip needs to have the version number in it. It should read "Replacable-poles_1.0.0.zip" otherwise we have to unpack it to use the mod.

Either way it's a great idea for a mod, and should be added to the game.
