I suggest you adapt the event on_player_placed_equipment https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/eve ... _equipment to contain the entity or luaplayer that the equipment has been added to. For example, this could be used to do some sort of effect on the entity that the equipment is inserted to. Or some way to find out the owner of the equipment.

The game doesn't know what entity or player the equipment was placed into - which is why it's not in the event

Ok thx. I guess I will have to get back to the drawing board.
