event when an inserter puts something into an equipment grid?

Post by mrudat »

We have an event that fires when a player puts an item into an equipment grid, but there isn't a corresponding event when anything other than a player does so.

This prevents mods that watch the equipment grid from performing magic (swapping out equipment, fiddling with energy, tracking installed equipment, etc.)

At a minimum, perhaps 'script_raised_placed_equipment' and 'script_raised_removed_equipment', to handle the case of spawning a vehicle, then immediately populating its equipment grid?

As far as I know, inserters don't ever put stuff into equipment grids. If they are, then something is broken because they aren't meant to.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
