Not sure if this is the place but...

Anyone know of a mod that disables evolution via time (but increases pollution evolution to compensate iirc)? I heard of it in passing but cannot find it.

You can run these commands in console. Edit the last number to whatever factor you prefer.

Thanks

I wrote "Green Turtle," which may be what you were thinking of / heard mentioned. I know there is at least one other mod that tweaks evolution parameters.

Or you can just alter the settings manually, as above (unless you're playing on a command-disabled MP map).

is there a version of this that works in 0.12.x?

Code: Select all

/c game.mapsettings.enemy_evolution.time_factor = 0.000008 * 0
/c game.mapsettings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor = 0.00003 * 2

This no longer works: Error: [...]:1: LuaGameScript doesn't contain key mapsettings.
What do?

try game.map_settings instead or game.local_player.surface.map_settings

map_settings works, thanks.
Although that seems like a really arbitary change in call hooks O.o

it was; many names in the lua script where all lower case which is not ideal to program in, so they made a breaking change to convert then to snake_case a few versions ago
