[Request] Light floor

Post by Neotix »

I would ask for mod that add light floor. That floor could be made from combining Lamp, Portable solar panel and Battery MK2.
It would be peaceable like concrete and light small area during night. It could be handy to light paths in factory.

I have started making the mod.
Will use stone path and add a light effect
Adding solar panel so it doesn't require external power source.

Known bugs
1. Can place multiple items on the ground in the same spot.

That's what I have found with the 10 min of gameplay I have had with the mod.

You can place power poles on the light-path

Literally a screenshot but totally blurred - You can make a screenshot by pressing print on your keyboard and paste into mspaint.
If you use windows 7 or newer you can also use the snipping tool.

Would you please use zip as compression format? Instead of rar, zips can be copied directly into the mod folder.

If you remove

Code: Select all

require "defines"
from control.lua and add

Code: Select all

"factorio_version": "0.13"
to info.json it can also be used in 0.13.

After all thanks for your work.

To avoid the power poles a power pole disguised as a floor tile would be great ;)

That poles are necessary? It would be great if that lights could be self sufficient. That's why solar panel and battery in recipe.
