can't read solar panels?

[withers]

Can someone tell me what's wrong with this?

for a, solar in pairs(data.raw.solar-panel) do

I keep getting "...unable to perform arithmetic on field 'solar' (a nil value)"

The dash in the solar-panel makes this not a valid Lua identifier (Lua thinks it's a minus sign and tries arithmetic on it), you need to use a different syntax:

Code: Select all

for a, solar in pairs(data.raw["solar-panel"]) do

That did it. Thanks!
