[Rseding] [0.17.66] Item/Recipe localized name of placeable item ignores entity prototype localised_name.

[eradicator]

What?
An item that is used to place an entity looks up it's name as "entity-name.whatever" (literally) even if the entity prototype specifies a dynamic name in the prototype. (Additionally the item name can not be overridden with [item-name] either).

Expected behavior
Placeable Item/Recipe should use entity prototype override for its name and description (description already works).

Details
Example mod is: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/er-stockpile

I have an group of dynamically generated entities all placeable_by the same item (shortened code):

Code: Select all

  local entity = {
    type = "container", name = name,
    this.localised_name = {'er.stockpile-name',lsize,ltype,log_mode}
    this.localised_description = {'er.stockpile-description'}
    }
  local item = {
    type = "item", name = name,
    place_result = name,
    this.localised_name = nil,
    this.localised_description = nil,    
    }
    

Code: Select all

[er]
stockpile-name=__1__ __2__Stockpile__3__
stockpile-description=Just some empty space... 

This works fine for the entity-info when hovering the entity with the mouse. But the item/recipe (which do *not* specify localised_name/description) do show "unknown-key:" as their name, however the description for both correctly uses the dynamic description from the entity.

Which leads to the weird situation that i have to specify the name of the item/recipe as *entity name* in the locale files:

Code: Select all

[entity-name] <--used only for item names here
er:stockpile-medium=Medium Stockpile
er:stockpile-large=Large Stockpile
er:stockpile-huge=Huge Stockpile

Broken name, ok description example when removing the [entity-name] block from the locale file:

Thanks for the report. It's now fixed for the next version of 0.17.
