Path does not match any mod, but path is correct!

Post by iUltimateLP »

Hi guys, I tried to implement a simple test storage chest inside my test mod. I did it all like in the Modding Tutorial in wiki, but everytime I start the game I get following error:
Error
What is wrong? Here are the contents of files:
item.lua
recipe.lua
entity.lua
Any suggestions? Thanks for help!

Omit the version number from the path in the item definition.

It doesn't work because the path "__TestItems_0.0.1__/something" needs to be "__TestItems__/something".

But then he says the folder isn't correctly named because the version is missing in folder name

The version number needs to be in the actual path where the mod is in, but not when you refer to it in the item definition.

Please post your info.json. It could also have something to do with that.

I think I understand what your problem is now.

The actual path has to be:
"Factorio/Mods/TestItems_0.0.1/something/axe.png"

but in the lua files it should be:
"__TestItems__/something/axe.png"
