[MOD 0.15] ModuleInserter 2.0.0

Post by Choumiko »

Module Inserter

Info:
  • Sick of having to put dozens of modules in your drills, assemblers, etc. by hand?

    Configure ModuleInserter with a setup for machines, mark the area and watch your Pocketbots do the hard work
    Mod at work
    Configuration
    Click the buttons(grey squares) with the item or module at your cursor, to set what module should go into which entity. To remove entities/modules click with an empty cursor.
    To clear modules from entities only set the entity without modules.
    Craft the module inserter item (it's where blueprints/deconstruction planner are), mark the area where your machines are and watch your bots.

    Notes:
    • Modules will first be taken from your inventory, if you don't have enough it will take them from the logistics network (for entities in logistics range only). The fake entity that is used to make the bots fly to the machine is inserted into your inventory. So it will only work if you have a personal roboport and a couple free slots in your inventory.
    • Marking an area with ghosts in it will remove the ghosts. So better wait until all ghosts are built
    Special thanks to kds71 for making the Upgrade planner. ModuleInserters GUI and ruleset config started by copying the whole mod :roll:

The robots "upgrade" it in a faked way, once they are at the building the modules get inserted and removed from your inventory.
Yes you can mix different modules, look at the image in the Configuration spoiler, the Assembling machine 3 will have 2 different modules in it.

it is clear there is a WIP mod. But maybe you are interested in the following error message:

Error in assingnID, item with name "cyber_beacon_50" does not exist..

Holy Crap! Awesome idea.

GUI Suggestion: add an option to use icons instead of entity name :) Makes it take less screen estate and module colors are almost universally remembered now.

That's kind of planned, just very low priority as i'm actually playing more than modding at the moment :D

Updated to 0.0.2
  • use icons instead of text
  • clearing slots/entities is done by clicking with empty cursor
  • only go to entity if not already in list
  • check if trying to insert productivity in beacon or assembler with forbidden recipe
  • fix error with Cyberchest mod
Updating from 0.0.1 will delete your stored rulesets/configurations.
The check for productivity modules is a bit hacky, due to missing API methods.

Sorry for bothering your gaming session.
Bug report :
Trying to add Productivity Module into electric furnace.

Is it because what you said ?
API limitation ?

It's because i never tried inserting a productivity module in my tests :D And for the gaming session: Haven't played 1 second on my actual save today anyways.

Fixed in 0.0.3 : https://github.com/Choumiko/ModuleInser ... _0.0.3.zip
  • fix crash when using productivity modules in furnaces
  • fix inserting modules in assemblers without recipe

I love this mod very much!
Now it is one of my favorites! Excellent work! Good idea with the icons! thx !! :)

Ps: Can you make even those icons for your mods as the modder from advanced logistics system?
This could help to save space ...

Sure, i thought about adding a console command to toggle the button, but icon would be even better :D

It is an honor for me, and I translate the "locale" also like in German, if you do not want to do it yourself that.

A super-mod!
