[1.1.57] LTN Mod setting "Factorio Alerts" does not work on linux

Post by zepanv »

Factorio 1.1.57 (build 59622, linux64, steam)
Many Mods.

I recently switched to linux and continued my previous game save which heavily uses the LTN mod. There is a mod setting "Factorio Alerts" to turn off the alert sound when it schedules trains and such. This setting does not seem to work in linux, checked on or off the alert sounds still play. I created an issue on the mod page (https://github.com/Yousei9/Logistic-Tra ... issues/290) and was told it was a problem with the game not the mod.

Post a save and exact steps to produce the issue. Explain what happens and what you want to happen instead.

Load the demo map from the mod page (attached).

The per player setting Factorio Alerts when unchecked should not cause the alert sounds when LTN schedules a train or sends other messages. This works properly on windows but does not on linux.

Can you show me a small video of it not working on linux? Looking at the mod code there's nothing wrong and having written the entirety of mod settings code there is no platform specific logic anywhere.

Played around with it a bit on Linux, 1.1.59:

The alerts LTN creates do not make any noise. (Tested with the building destroyed alert and those do still make noise, so that seems to be intended.)
The chat notifications LTN creates do make noise in the form of a new chat message ping, unless you turn the volume for chat down, or set a different message level in the LTN Map settings.

It's the chat notification sound, when the alert is toggled off in the mod settings on windows the chat messages still appear but do not cause an audible alert. When I tried it in linux no matter if the mod setting was off or on the audible alert happened on every chat message that LTN sent.

When I posted the issue on the mod github he said it must be a problem with the game, since there is nothing platform specific on the mod side.

I will see if I can find a pc to get a video on, I don't have the same setup when I noticed this issue. It should be just a case of loading the "demo" map from the mod page on linux and toggling the alerts on and off.

The chat notification sound is not effected by the mod setting to turn off the "factorio" alert. In fact I don't remember any way to disable that sound when a message is displayed in chat.

I'm pretty sure that's the only setting I've toggled that is related, I will try toggling it of and on in windows and see if one way does cause the chat notifications to play the alert sound.

Sooo yeah, not an issue. There is an option to play sounds on chat messages, that was it. I wrongly assumed that when you synced it was all the settings. I knew it doesn't sync blueprint libraries but I thought the settings all did.

Sorry for the bother, please close this one out as an id10t issue :)
