[MOD 0.12.x] Map Labels - Add labels to resources on the map

[PiggyWhiskey]

Very great mod! I guess it makes playing with many ores like in Bobs mod much more playable.

Is it possible to make the labels undestroyable by the natives?

Right now I sometimes get Alerts from biters destroying some of the resource labels, which is really annoying.

It definitely makes searching for ores with Bob's easier.

I've only noticed them attacking when I'm near them. Close enough to trigger path finding to the player.

Are there any plans to update it for 0.13.1?

[maggi321]

I've created a 0.13.1 working version for personal purposes. I also changed the owner force of the invisible train stations to "neutral", which may remove the possibility of natives destroying it, but I didn't really have time to test it yet. I will share my version here, that other impatient people like me can use it, until the original author releases an update.

[PiggyWhiskey]

Has 0.13 been released already?

Didn't they say it would break most mods.

What changes did you make? Apart from changing it to neutral. (does that change work in 0.12?)

Edit: I'm an idiot. I forgot the releases go to beta in steam and from the website.
I was expecting my normal steam to update to 0.13 automatically

[maggi321]

I only changed it to neutral and added the mandatory "factorio_version": "0.13.0" to the info.json file. I guess the change to neutral should also work in 0.12, but I didn't test it.

[Ranakastrasz]

You could add the invulnerable tag instead. Can't recall what its called.

[orzelek]

When spawning the tag you can set it's destructible flag to false - biters won't touch it.

Thank you.

When do you release a working version for 0.13 for the rest of us? or have i missed something ?



EDIT: silly me, never mind. Thank you alot maggi321! -though, can't seem to find the "Map Label button" ?

[ukezi]

I also can't find the button. it is not in the upper left corner. I'm useing bob's modpack.
EDIT: the button appears in a new game. how ever it is not showing in an old one is a riddle to me.

Cheers, works for me too, when starting a new game.

[kendrome]

Here is a version that should add the button to existing saves.

Any chance for a .14 release?

[orzelek]

Also for support of any ores - AFAIK there is a property that can read localised name of resource.
It would mean you wouldn't need to define ore names for each and every ore to make it work.
Property in question is named localised_name and available from any entity prototype.

[Aibehn]

I just changed version req from 0.13 to 0.14 and seems to work fine. Im testing it right now.

I got excited for a minute! Unfortunately backer_name doesn't accept locale tables

[orzelek]

So mod is using backer name not station names?

Actually even if those are station names it might not work since they might not be using locale tables also.

Great. This mod is ridiculously useful. I use bobs mod and I have serious problems identifying all the different ores - this mod is a life saver Looking forward for the .14 version.

[kendrome]

Here is a quick update to .14 I have only done some quick testing but it seems to be working.
