Usefull commands for Map-tests

[Ohz]

Hi,

Usefull and easy copy/past players command to generate your map while you're tinkering with RSO settings.
Most of you know them, but people like me that don't have a clue about commands/coding/searching on forum/wiki/reddit and stopped playing since a year wants to come back and have a shortcut to basic commands.

- Edited for 0.14 - Thanks Deadly-Bagel and Nexela

- Reveal 1024px around you:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -1024, y = -1024}, rightbottom = {x = 1024, y = 1024}})

- Reveal 2048px around you:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -2048, y = -2048}, rightbottom = {x = 2048, y = 2048}})

- Change the speed tick:

Code: Select all

/c game.speed=10

Hopefully I helped you.
Thanks for this awesome mod <3

Great to see these here. Been using these for a couple of years to get a decent setup.

I also suggest these:

Great to move around freely around the map (it kills you):

Code: Select all

/c game.local_player.character = nil

This one is great if you have Yarm in the combination of the above command to get a good idea how much ore is in a vein if your adjust numbers.

Code: Select all

/c game.players[1].insert{name="resource-monitor",count=1}

One addition to above - changing of player to nil won't kill you - you switch to a godmode controller.

You can go back to normal mode again like this after mouse overing on your character that should be standing patiently where you left it:

Code: Select all

/c game.local_player.character = game.local_player.selected

Won't works if you player is inside a tank )

This would have been excellent for checking how my RSO worlds turn out, without having to turn on god mode and speed up the game time to be able to run around like the Flash.

However, I keep getting the following error message:

Code: Select all

 Cannot execute command. Error: LuaGameScript doesn't contain key local_player.stack traceback: [string "game.local_player.force.chart(game.local_play..."]:1: in main chunk 

Please do explain this to me as to an idiot. Downloaded RSO today, and it is the only reason I ever started messing around with the Factorio console, so I have absolutely no idea about what I'm doing.

Thanks in advance!

local_player has been removed, use game.player.whatever_your_doing


edit: I think I fell asleep at the keyboard on this one fixed it up to be more understandable.

Thank you I will edit later !

Commands in OP no longer work, use the below for single player games:

1024 blocks:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -1024, y = -1024}, rightbottom = {x = 1024, y = 1024}})

2048 blocks:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -2048, y = -2048}, rightbottom = {x = 2048, y = 2048}})

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -2048, y = -2048}, rightbottom = {x = 2048, y = 2048}})
/c game.speed=10
/c game.player.character = nil

(I realize the thread is 1+ years old, but it still shows up on Google. I'm still using this thread in Dec 2017.)
I like to add a line to make the map always bright:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -2048, y = -2048}, rightbottom = {x = 2048, y = 2048}})
/c game.speed=10
/c game.player.character = nil
/c game.player.surface.always_day=true

And you can use Lua syntax to cram it all into one line. Good when trying several maps in a row:

Code: Select all

/c game.forces.player.chart(game.player.surface, {lefttop = {x = -2048, y = -2048}, rightbottom = {x = 2048, y = 2048}}); game.speed=10; game.player.character = nil; game.player.surface.always_day=true

If you have RSO then the whole map charting and speed change/god mode is under this command:

Code: Select all

/c remote.call("RSO", "runTest", 2000, 2000)

Reveals map 1k AROUND the current player position. Not some silly starting-position code that's not adjustable at all .

/c local radius=1000
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{game.player.position.x-radius, game.player.position.y-radius}, {game.player.position.x+radius, game.player.position.y+radius}})

Edit: This is also in the wiki.factorio as i learned now xD
