Detect when modules changed

[mat1k]

I'm trying to find a way to detect when a player adds, removes, or changes the modules in a drill or assembling machine.

Is there an event that triggers for this? or a way to work around to check modules after gui closed?

Code: Select all

script.on_event(defines.events.on_gui_closed, function(event)
  if not event.entity then return end
  local module_slots = event.entity.prototype.module_inventory_size
  if not module_slots or module_slots == 0 then return end
  
  game.print("modules were potentially edited")  
end)

I don't think there is a way to detect a Ctrl+click. Or a construction robot module delivery.

Ctrl-click triggers the on_player_fast_transferred event
