not a bug [0.18] resource_autoplace.resource_autoplace_settings patch_set_name not working as expected.

[bobingabout]

It was pointed out to me that something in my mods isn't working as expected. viewtopic.php?p=488306#p488306

Code in my mod to create the autoplace for "Lithia Water" in my mod.

Code: Select all

    data.raw.resource["lithia-water"].autoplace = resource_autoplace.resource_autoplace_settings{
      name = "ground-water", -- autoplace control name
      patch_set_name = "lithia-water", -- resource name, needed if different than autoplace control name
      order = "c",
      base_density = 8.2,
      base_spots_per_km2 = 1.8,
      random_probability = 1/48,
      random_spot_size_minimum = 1,
      random_spot_size_maximum = 1,
      additional_richness = 220000,
      has_starting_area_placement = false,
      regular_rq_factor_multiplier = 1
    }

Expected result: only one autoplace control named "ground-water" that controls multiple resources.
Actual result: There seems to be a control option added called "lithia-water", which doesn't actually do anything, "ground-water" still controls the Lithia water resource as expected.

Note: the ores mod is intended to be run with more of my mods, by default no ores are added, you will need to go into the mod options and turn on all the ores. (at the very least the water ores) to reproduce this bug.

My apologies.

It seems this is an issue with my mods, not the game.
