trying to use entity.minable with player.selected to disable an entity from being mined.
The api say its a read/write variable, but I can only read, changing it does nothing.
here a simplified version of my code, that you can paste in a control.lua to test
it should turn any entity that you're pointing at non minable and print false, but it just always print true and things stay minable.
Code: Select all
script.on_event(defines.events.on_tick,
function(event)
for player_index, player in pairs(game.players) do
if player.selected ~= nil then
log(tostring(player.selected.name))
log(tostring(player.selected.minable))
player.selected.minable = "false"
log(tostring(player.selected.minable))
end
end
end
)
function log(message)
if game ~= nil then
for index, player in pairs(game.players) do
player.print(message)
end
end
end
