Hi I have submitted a pull request for this mod to simplify some of the code.

https://github.com/Gergith/factorio-coo ... mod/pull/1

Thanks for sharing this

Can you explain your code?

Thanks VERY much for the update!

Does it CHANGE any of the function?
Or is it a shorter way to write everything while keeping it the same?

Also, I was wondering if maybe you could help me with a feature that I couldn't figure out on my own yet.
Do you know how to make it so when you click on the button it changes how many decimal places it shows? so it would cycle from 0-->4 and back with every click?

No worries if not! Thanks again!

Hi, the update should maintain the same functionality of the mod, everything should stay the same, the code is just a little shorter.
See the changes here https://github.com/Gergith/factorio-coo ... ll/1/files
Instead of having 4 lines with hardcoded format strings, now the format string is generated from the significant digits, then used. Because you already guarantee that the number is within the bounds of 0 and 4, this maintains the same functionality.

As for the cycle functionality, I will look into it and see what I can find, if I figure it out I will make another pull request. I am just getting into modding myself (I program quite a lot but am not familiar with the mod API or Lua).

I have added this functionality, it is with the rest of my pull request now. Could you merge it and repackage the releases? I was too lazy too, but I added the behavior you described.

Thank you so very muchly! I will update everything very shortly. Thanks for all your help.

Holidays are crazy! It's sad how excited I was to see the first time someone else submitted a pull request to commit code on my first github project. That's got to be some sort of internet/nerd achievement unlocked :p

Hehe... Christmas wishing:
Could you add also a LuaStyle to the whole box to make it nice and small? And put X and Y in a separate line so that it is very narrow?

It would be great if you could add the z-axis for the Subsurface mod https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... 97&t=19178 if possible. At the moment I use sign posts https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... ts#p101041 at each elevator but being able to see the level as a third axis would be much better.

Updated things to 1.1.0! Check the post above.

To address both these requests below: I'll get to them quicker than the last update!

Hopefully this should be no problem

I'll get to it in the coming week or two though

Likely can be done, but will come after the above feature is implemented (could be within the same update though).

I'll do my best

Any chance you can provide the error message you are getting?

I"m not getting any errors with 0.12.24 multiplayer.

Added this functionality in 1.2.0

You have to turn it on in the config file. Just set the value to true to have the menu show it
