Pictures really are important. a lot of people won't touch mods without pictures. (Myself included)
Some mods don't need pictures, (Like something that just speeds up vanilla buildings.
Basically, anything with any visual change should have pictures :)

Added a video demo. It isn't that good, but it should help at least.

V15.1.0
Updated for V15.

Unfortunately, my clever plan of using the new sticker mechanic failed because stickers don't support players or latency hiding yet.

I got a crash bug with this but sadly I could not reproduce it.

I have a lot of mods installed.

Here's the things I was doing at the time. Doing the same things after loading an autosave didn't seem to cause the problem to reoccur, sadly.
  • While having no armour at all, building a light armour.
  • Standing on a belt full of iron plates holding down F (which is also bound as the shortcut for autofill for me) to scoop things up.
  • Passing under an inserter taking the plates off the belt and into a chest.
Under these conditions I got an error from shield pulse saying that grid was null, just about the time the new armour finished building. Not entirely sure what was happening but somehow it seems to have tried to query for a shield in an armour that can't have one, and crashed.

Ugh. Still?

Why did they have to change the API again?.....

Will look into it.

Could you send me the save? Assuming you are using Version 15.1.0, i don't see how that could have happened.

well with the latest version of the mod in the latest version of Factorio I get the grid error reliably on every load of the save I'm about to link you.

I think it's because you're checking grid.valid but haven't checked if grid itself is a null reference, on line 107 of control.lua.

Indeed, changing line 107 to:

Code: Select all

                    if (grid ~= nil) and (grid.valid) then -- Check for grid existence.
has fixed the problem for me.

Now if dropbox would kindly hurry up with uploading the save, I'd gladly send it over...

Seriously?

Weird. I don't get the issue on my end, but maybe it has to do with other factors.

I mean, I run the game, add light-armor. and nothing goes wrong. Not really sure what is going on there. The validation I use gets rid of the crash for me, but apperently other factors exist.

Thing is, they reciently changed the API involved, so I had to rewrite the validation, so I am not hugely surprised.

V15.1.1
Fixed that null-grid error, probably.

thing is, I can't reproduce it, so I have no idea what causes it. as such, It might not be a functional fix.
