[MOD 0.12.20+] Homeworld

[B1tchFight]

If I leave it zipped, the game client can't find it in the list of scenarios. If I delete the MAC stuff I get a error:

...ctorio (v0.12.30 x86)/temp/currently-playing/control.lua:5: module helpers.assertion not found; no such file E:/Factorio (v0.12.30 x86)/temp/currently-playing/helpers/assertion.lua no such file E:/Factorio (v0.12.30 x86)/temp/currently-playing/helpers/assertion.lua no such file E:/Factorio (v0.12.30 x86)/data/core/lualib/helpers/assertion.lua

And it doesn't matter if I use winrar, 7zip or windows build in function to zip or unzip things... same error

[seronis]

Well its NOT a scenerio so of course you wont find anything there. Its a normal mod.

[B1tchFight]

Looks like it works ^^ Okay, that was my bad.

[Quazar]

Also getting the same error as @Regzzz and @suhteevah, a real bummer since without the seeder... well, we know how this turned out: Saruman got all Factorio on the forest

What can we do to help get this bug fixed? Thanks!

PS: Alright this seems to only happen when the seeder's inventory box is empty... make a bunch of Tree Programs and watch things work as intended, until the last one runs out.

The code that throws the error:

Code: Select all

function Seeder:get_tree_type()
   if self.state.entity.is_crafting() then
      local inventory = self.state.entity.get_inventory(2)
      if inventory[1] then
         local tree_module = inventory[1].name
         return config.tree_types[tree_module]
      end
   end
   return nil
end

That test of 'if inventory[1] then' looks suspicious but I don't know enough Lua (yet!) to fix it.

Want to know if the reported stuff is fixed actually or not because we want to use this mod but with full functionallity.

Its not fixed yet. For future reference you can look at the timestamp of the person posting a given issue, and if the timestamp of the first post with the download isnt AFTER the problem, its safe to assume its not fixed.

[Quazar]

Until the owner comes back around, you can fix 1.1.0 with a one-line change to seeder.lua

diff actors/seeder.lua_DIST actors/seeder.lua
16c16
< if inventory[1] then
---
> if inventory[1].valid_for_read then

... at least this worked for me, doesn't crash anymore. It doesn't address the issue where the first tree program doesn't seem to do anything but the the thing running... the second, pending card appears to be required for new trees to sprout.

Has anyone found a solution to sustainable fishing? I thought I had it with a long bridge and periodic nets, but even this has turned out over time to be insufficient.

EDIT: Looking at the code, there's a penalty for having the fisheries too close together, and of course nothing to check if the setup has two sides of a land bridge.

Also something's wrong with Homeworld entities and blueprints... buildings placed by robots don't seem to actually do anything. After placing and waiting I had to go back and tear down and manually build each fishery to make it do more than just consume fish and not output filets. Same goes for the seeder.

I loved Anno 2070 and I expect I'd love this too; will definitely try it out next time I want a new game.

Until then, is there any way you could generate a production graph as a preview for us?

[B1tchFight]

Can someone tell me why I can't produce any wheat?! o0 Placed the farm close to the water on green ground... Couldn't find any slot to put seeds on it or something like that... Waited for about 10 minutes now... nothing...

[UberWaffe]

@B1tchFight:
Pollution slows down farm growth. If your farms are within high pollution (or even somewhat moderate pollution) they won't produce anything at all.
Same goes for the fisheries.

(At least, this was true in the last version I played).

[B1tchFight]

I know this ^^ It's showing the polution level. That's not the case at all. Well i changed the mod for now. Added other materials for the demand.

Code: Select all

name = "Tier 20",
        upgrade_population = 404000,
        downgrade_population = 350000,
        max_growth_rate = 5,
        max_decline_rate = -300,
        needs = {
           { item = "building-materials",      max_per_day = 3000  },
           { item = "processing-unit",         max_per_day = 2500  },
           { item = "solar-panel",             max_per_day = 2500  },
           { item = "speed-module",            max_per_day = 2500  },
           { item = "effectivity-module",      max_per_day = 2000  },
           { item = "productivity-module",     max_per_day = 1500  },
           { item = "science-pack-3",          max_per_day = 1500  },
           { item = "basic-beacon",            max_per_day = 500   },
           { item = "energy-shield-equipment", max_per_day = 250   },         
           { item = "electric-engine-unit",    max_per_day = 1000  },
           { item = "portable-electronics",    max_per_day = 1000  },
           { item = "rocket",                  max_per_day = 2000  }

This might be okay for level 20 I think... xD

Edit: right now I'm busy creating a code generator to spit out a endless amount of levels with ever increasing and changing materials We plan on running a endless mode with it and want to see where the game stops supporting this size... We could need some more people btw We are 3 so far.

When the Farm is clicked it should show Soil Richness, Air Purity and Yield... I've definitely seen a couple that wouldn't display this info. I blew them up and placed elsewhere, good to go.

I wonder if that's the case for your non-producer?

[Alukat]

- appeared when loading the game.
- guess the belt throughput monitor is causing it.

It's game thats outdated not the mod. 0.12.3 is an old version - 0.12.30 is the current one.

Playing on steam? Rightclick the game in your steam lib - properties - BETA - Select the latest version in the dropdown menue.

Nope, I see all the values and even on 100+% it's not working. Tried in normal and sandbox mode... Haven't changed anything related to them... Do I maybe need to build or preper something before?

Stray_Pyramid has done a bunch of fixes that I merged into the mod today. I haven't had a chance to test and package it, but it is up on GitHub if you want to package it yourself.

Seeder
- No longer crashes game when resource slot is empty and at the
beginning of planting cycle
- Makes trees when resource slot is empty
- Recipes are now hidden, and craft nothing instead of a log
- Increased tree spawning rate. Min 10 trees, Max 25 trees per module

Terraformer
- Recipes are now hidden and produce nothing instead of a plastic bar.

Farm
- Farm starts next growing cycle immediately when inventory is empty
- Added a growth percentage to farm GUI

Sawmill
- Hide recipes

Items/Recipes
- Reorder in crafting menu
- Rename fluid crafting names to name of product instead of 'process'
involved.

Other bugs
- Buildings placed by robots now initialize properly

Known bugs that have not been fixed yet:

- Farm window + farm GUI closes when farm gui changes
- Farms in blueprints that are not empty e.g. show something growing
will not be placed because it is a different building that what can be
crafted
- Homeworld portals that are not the newest one built will not show GUI
because the actor is replaced
- Homeworld portal reward chests appear at 2nd newest homeworld portal
instead of newest.

-edit- solved.

Hi,

I used your mod for a MP headless server but after placing my portal the server begins to lag instantly and also it will not showing any information about population and so far.
Setting a secondary portal from another MP-Player don't change anything.

But I also saw any hint that this mod is not MP compatible so if no mod has this highly recommanded hint I think - as the mod user - it is MP able and prooved but it seems to be not of them.

So please let me know if it's MP able and prooved or if there is a config option which must I set - and rezip it - that it works on MP server.
