[0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Welcome to Folks Factorio Fabrications
(or the "how I learned to stop worrying and finally created a thread"-thread)
I've made a few mods, and I don't want to manage one thread for each of them, because they're all quite tiny. So this thread is for all of them, if that's acceptable. And I do read the Discussion section on my addons from time to time, but I understand that some people want to contact authors on the forum. So here I am.
Most of the addons are quite automagic. Enjoy!
If you have any feedback of any sort, please do let me know.
Most likely automatically fills in things properly, probably. Preferrably both fuel and ammunition, if possible.
Fills in ammunition and fuel in all cars/tanks, locomotives, turrets, furnaces, and other things automatically. Should support anything added by 3rd party mods, no configuration necessary. Uses the best-available fuel and ammo, determined by fuel value and sort order, respectively.
A remake of the classic Shuttle Train by Simwir.
Please read the description, as the mod is quite different from the original. I have contacted simwir through his github page about this remake. I don't know what "lite" means either, but I had to call the mod _something_
Deactivates personal roboports while you are travelling in a vehicle, at speeds above the configured threshold.
Should be simple enough to understand, if you ignore the options! Srsly, there are too many mods that add random robot type upgrades! So all numbers in the mod are based on the vanilla robot speed; 0.06 * upgrade percent.
Allows you to put fish in water and breed them. Revolutionary technology.
Not much to say about this one, clearly an essential addon.
Instantly investigates and indiscriminately incinerates indistinguishable items from your inventory. Specifically, blueprints.
Makes sure that your main inventory never contains more than one copy of the same blueprint or book, by label.
Instantly pops you into a filtered vehicle when you place it within reach of the player character.
And that's it. Filter a quickbar slot to a vehicle, and off you go!
Creates tile blueprints from your text input that are easily visible on the map. A floor printer, if you will.
Adds a new 0.15-style mod button on the left side that creates blueprints of your text input. If anyone wants to make a better font than the one I did, please do Or a smaller one.
Adds a new kind of train cargo wagon that connects to the logistic system in weird and mysterious ways.
Err, you should probably read the mod description for this one.
Creates tiny equipment modules that tries to set the color of whatever you insert them into.
This one is exceptionally useless. Except for myself, probably. Hopefully at least 2-3 others will find it fun and/or useful.
Provides a control unit you can place next to radars that outputs the number of enemy and friendly units found in the radars permanent coverage area.
I wrote this to use it alongside Robot Army. However, it scans for any "unit" type, so it probably has lots of uses that I haven't thought about
Allows you to spray-paint decals on the ground.
Automatically gives you a book full of decal-sprays. Note that as of 0.15.3, the new book and blueprint type that the mod adds are still visible in the blueprint library, although they are useless there. Rseding91 had fixed this for the next version of factorio, so they will not show up there.

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Would it be a major effort to integrate auto blueprintify with textplates mod that makes letters for nice sings?

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
That's a good question, I will investigate perhaps later tonight or tomorrow

I know that I would have a lot of use for such a thing.

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Can you try 0.1.3, please?
If it doesn't work then, I will need a list of your addons.
If you give me that list, I will fix it.

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Its hard to report a bug if by the time I am posting it, a new version is out already
Testing version 0.1.3 now
Testing version 0.1.3 now
Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
It loads now.
And it works nicely, if you dont have FARL.
I think FARL is adding his own grid that does not support your module

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Okay, I will make it work with FARL.
Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
If you want it to work with FARL please just use another mod that adds grids, like https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Optera/VehicleGrid
Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Ohh, I dont mind. I had FARL there by mistake, I never use it.folk wrote:If you want it to work with FARL please just use another mod that adds grids, like https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Optera/VehicleGrid
Multiple times I said myself that I need to remove it after I close the client but I always forget. Now it was removed for good
But, maybe change the description with a more visible warning about using with FARL also equiring another mod instead of the current suggestion of using another mod to increase grid size
Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Well you beat me to it!folk wrote:If you want it to work with FARL please just use another mod that adds grids, like https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Optera/VehicleGrid
To make your grids work with farl just modifiy the farl grid,
https://github.com/Nexela/Shuttle-Train ... -fixes.lua
Also please allow a hotkey to find closest station (or the one selected) for calling a shuttle too
Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Done and done! Thank you for the awesome .luacheckrc, it's way more detailed than my own crappy one.Nexela wrote: Well you beat me to it!

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Added a new mod now: https://mods.factorio.com/mods/folk/fol ... equipment/
It's very strange.

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Hi, having some problems with Shuttle train Lite, using /reset command did make it show the correct names the only problem is it only shows 1 page of stations and the <- -> arrow keys are gone, when removing the mod the top-left icon is still there with the following message: "Unknown key:"Shuttle-lite.button-tooltip" Any suggestions?
Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Also please make a way to disable the station list period.
Can just open the map, find the station and Ctrl-J on it
Also feature request. Any train you are IN can be a shuttle train if it has no station records set OR it has 1 station set and it matches train.station
Feel free to steal anything you want from the 2.00 fork on github

The problem with the top-left icon being there is a bug in Factorio. It creates those icons for the mod.
Done next update.Nexela wrote:Also please make a way to disable the station list period.
How can I tell which station the player is pointing his cursor at? I made it for next update so that you can click the stations and Ctrl+J-go there, but I can't find any property on luaplayer/luacontrol that tells me which station the mouse is _hovering over_?Nexela wrote:Can just open the map, find the station and Ctrl-J on it

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Hello!
I added shuttle train lite to an already existing .15 MP server, it started causing instant desyncs when the second player connected. Removed the mod and the problem went away.. Not sure exactly what the cause is unfortunately but the mod seems to have triggered it.

Re: [0.15] Folks Factorio Fabrications
Sorry I should have expanded on this, I meant to remove the whole station list/button, Probably a /shuttletrain command to enable/disable the GUI stufffolk wrote:Done next update.Nexela wrote:Also please make a way to disable the station list period.

Without the module, but only in trains that meet the criteria above (player is IN the train etc)
