[0.17.74] Possible bug - Cliff gaps

Post by Eleenrood »

Attached screenshot.

Basically i can walk between two cliffs (graphics looks like its completely impassable).

Game is modded (alien biomes is possible culprit too) so not sure if this is caused by mod of bug in map generation.

I was hugging the cliff, looking at youtube while running when my char jarred into the gap.
It took me few seconds, but basically i can walk through it consistently with up yo two failed tries to get into the gap.

I had this same issue. Removing squeakthrough fixed it. Ignoring it is also an option, albiet less satisfying.

In any case, list the mods you used. Kinda hard to help otherwise.
My Mods:
Modular Armor Revamp - V16
Large Chests - V16
Agent Orange - V16
Flare - V16
Easy Refineries - V16

Now that I think of it: There were some weird problems occuring with both alien biomes and squeak through. Maybe this is actually a known issue with that combination.

Not sure what you mean by " squeak through"? If another mod than either it is bundled into one of the ones I have active or I'm not using it. If its an option somewhere, i have no idea if I have it enabled :)

Squeak Through is a mod:
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Squeak%20Through

It changes the collision boxes, so that you can walk between solar panels, through pipes, etc.
Many people use it. Since your problem is about collision boxes this is what I was thinking about is happening in your case as well.

The gap is not big enough for the vanilla player collision box to pass through.

Thank you for information! Wasn't aware one of mods modified playersize.
