[0.16.16] don't get event on_built_entity on building entity

Post by darkfrei »

Hi all.

I've made item for control:

Code: Select all

  {
    type = "item",
    name = "private-chest-requester",
    icons = {
      {icon = "__base__/graphics/icons/logistic-chest-requester.png"},
      {icon = "__PrivateBufferChest__/PBC.png"}
      },
    icon_size = 32,
    flags = {"goes-to-quickbar"},
    subgroup = "logistic-network",
    order = "b[storage]-e[logistic-chest-requester]-z",
    place_result = "logistic-chest-requester",
    stack_size = 50
  },
:!: Name of this item is not the same as place_result.

control.lua has this code:

Code: Select all

script.on_event(defines.events.on_built_entity, function(event)
  local entity = event.created_entity
  local player = game.players[event.player_index]
  player.print('entity is ' .. entity.name)
end)
By placing of any item with same name entity I get text, but when item has one name and entity has another name, then I get nothing.
Example mod:
PrivateBufferChest_0.0.1.zip
For 0.16

How to reproduce:
Place all objects from inventory and by BPC you get no notification.

Thanks for the report. It's now fixed for the next version of 0.16.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

What it will be? Item or entity? Item is better.

Why?
If I use new item and old entity, than this entity will be not destroyed on removing of this mod. It's much easy to manage placing and you don't need to replace one entity thru another.
Or both of them.

on_built_entity already contains both .entity and .stack.
