Bugs & FAQ

Hi, I encountered a bug, using angel+bob+aai packs, the "crawler" construction vehicle moving instantly deletes all the fuel in the vehicle burner generator.

A bigger problem was more, to get rid of too much sodium hydroxide. Now you can turn it to liquid and void it.

Void it how, exactly? Sodium Hydroxide Solution doesn't have any void recipes.

Upps, I heard it somewhere but didn't actually tested it myself as i'm not there yet. (seablock marathon attempt) I assumed it must be in a clarifier, but FNEI is not telling about a void recipe...

With all Bobs & all Angels installed, I am getting both Bob's Chemical Plants, and Angels as well. This seems horribly wrong...

Also, icon scaling does not work for buffer warehouses and silos. (The Buffer warehouse has the small icon, you just can't see it behind the logistic warning.)

I have the exact same issue, most likely caused by https://mods.factorio.com/mod/PyCoalTBaA

It shouldn't be as I didnt do anything with the icon size. But a save file or a list of the minimum mods needed to cuase the issue and I can get it fixed it is

Edit: Had to install Bobs personal Equipment mod.

I'm playing a new Seablock game, so forgive me for not checking without the additional patches from Seablock, but I'm noticing that advanced steel smelting seems to offer no benefit over regular?

While regular ore smelting gets you 3 plates from 4 ores, advanced gets you 1:1. But steel smelting is 2 steel from 8 iron, while advanced offers 6 steel ingots from 24 iron... the same ratio. There's a slight improvement to the oxygen use but that's hardly a big deal. Additionally, unless my math is wrong, going via a coil has little benefit, as it adds an extra step in exchange for slightly faster processing. It doesn't seem worthwhile to have two separate steps here?

Is this a side effect of Bob changing the steel recipe to include oxygen?

P.S. Bob's electrolyser is still craftable, but useless.

[boran_blok]

I think the main advantage you get is that you can mix the ingots with other metals to end up with more steel.

You should post stuff like this in the seablocks thread as seablocks changes a lot.
Yes. At least in earlier versions of seablocks it started out as 8 iron :1 steel.

Getting a crash with Bobs Metals, Chemicals, and Intermediaries stating the aluminium sprite size is too large.

Yeah me too.
I tried editing angelssmelting_0.5.5.zip\angelssmelting_0.5.5\prototypes\smelting-override-global.lua
and adding icon_size to all the icon defined in the
"--OVERRIDE FOR BOBs
if bobmods and bobmods.plates then"
section, like so:

data.raw["item"]["tin-plate"].icon = "__angelssmelting__/graphics/icons/plate-tin.png"
data.raw["item"]["tin-plate"].icon_size = 32
data.raw["item"]["tin-plate"].subgroup = "angels-tin-casting"
data.raw["item"]["tin-plate"].order = "a"
data.raw["item"]["nickel-plate"].icon = "__angelssmelting__/graphics/icons/plate-nickel.png"
data.raw["item"]["nickel-plate"].icon_size = 32
data.raw["item"]["nickel-plate"].subgroup = "angels-nickel-casting"
data.raw["item"]["nickel-plate"].order = "a"

But that only changed the error on load to one where it was bitching about the plate-nickel.png instead.

I'm on holidays so it will take some days till I'm back and able to fix this. Only solution until then is to not upgrade bobsplate

Both good and bad news

The problem with bobsplates and the plate-aluminium error is that Bob resized some of the icons. A temp fix can be done while we wait for Arch666Angel to get back from having fun. (if going back down a version with bobsplates is not acceptable)

1. Extract the mod "angelssmelting_0.5.5.zip" to the same mod directory (should be in "c:/Users/<username>/AppData/Roaming/Factorio/mods/", ymmv)
2. Delete "angelssmelting_0.5.5.zip"
3. Resize these files to 64x64: (photoshop, paint, paint.net, etc)

Code: Select all

    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-nickel.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-lead.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-invar.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-gunmetal.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-gold.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-cobalt.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-bronze.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-brass.png
    angelssmelting_0.5.5/graphics/icons/plate-aluminium.png

This should be enough to get the game up and running, haven't done extensive testing, but it seems to work here.
Obvious warning that you do this at own risk and such!
