[MOD 0.12.x] NESTT: Build your base inside a train

[Proxy]

So, it's like the Compact machines mod from Minecraft?
YUS.
but i'm not sure if you got Diffrent Tiers of Trains, higher Tiers mean More Space...
but still, very Awesome!

[ske]

Can you ride a train inside the train?

Can you ride a train inside the train?

Yo, I heard you like trains, so we put a train inside your train.

[orzelek]

You were thinking about adding some way to generate path through resources for the train.

If you are interested I think it would be possible to get RSO to keep the internal list of resources it uses to generate them and make it readable by interface. Would make finding resources to path through much easier potentially.

Yes, but not tested

I was thinking generate a random path then sprinkling resources along the path. Seems to be easier to implement this way.

No tiers yet, but you can expand the train space by adding wagons. I will have to check out that mod.

That might be easier

I'm patiently waiting for ability to expand the railroad

So I'm a little confused how the NESTT chests bring resources inside, even after watching the video.

I tried setting up several iron NESTT chests but only one of them actually moved resources inside. Can we only use one NESTT chest per resource?

Also it seems like NESTT chests only work on the engine piece, not on the cargo segments. Is that intentional or am I just kind of messing something up?

Also I'm a little curious how the NESTT brings water and oil inside, since I'm trying to figure out where to put my steam engines and oil refineries. It would be convenient if I could move those tanks somewhere else, but I haven't tested anything yet.

Theres one little thing im hoping that you fix:
that is that you can produce water from the black area using a offshore pump.

Thats a game bug/feature, only way i can suggest to fix it is to spawn indestructible wall around the edge of the internal area

Bug report would be in order - should get fixed anyway.

Hello. I've just installed the mod, but there are no train when I start the scenario (both scenarios), just rails.
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and using Factorio 0.12.21

it is actually really easy to fix, go to your game installation folder then ./data/base/prototypes/tile/tiles.lua
then, line 58 comment the line going from

{
  type = "tile",
  name = "out-of-map",

    "resource-layer",
    "floor-layer",
    "item-layer",
    "object-layer",
    "player-layer",
    "doodad-layer"
  }, ...

to @xiaohong, create a new out-of-map tileset with basically the same data but with this line commented out, use it outside the train compartment and this should be solved !

here is the setup:

[s][n][c]

s = side of the train
n = nestt-chest
c = any chest

place 1 ore in the nestt-chest and the chest next to it will be filled.
Note that it will only fill if you are over the ore patch.
Also if you have two duplicate setups with the same ore, only one will be filled.
All resources can only be gathered in the locomotive and not in wagons, this is a feature.
The oil and water tanks are stationary for now.

Thanks, will add this in the next release.

Sounds like the mod was not installed correctly. In the game main menu click "Mods", check if "Never Ever Stop The Train" is there, and is enabled.

[StanFear]

ehm ... I think I found a bug :
on version 0.1.0, If I enter a secound train, the map never gets generated (the enter/exit boutton is available directly when I enter the train), and when I teleport inside, I get killed right away ... I know it probably shouldn't be used with more than one train, but still ...

[delfiler]

i love this mode makes me really thing about everything i use and place but my only thing is that the train starts sower after you ad more wagons is ther anyway to increase it?

I will probably add researches/upgrades later down the line to enhance the train.
