Turrets range changer mod request

[matryona12]

Can someone please create mod which would give ability to change turrets range in menu to any value? Or at least make a mod to increase laser and machinegun turret range to twice as in vanilla.
Tnx

First, you are need the name for your mod. For example "Turret Range Extension".

You are need to create the mod folder (for example "TurretRangeExtension_0.0.1") and prepare the file info.json inside. See: link

example

info.json

Code: Select all

{
  "name": "TurretRangeExtension",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  
  "title": "Turret Range Extension",
  "description": "The mod changes vanilla turret's range",
  
  "author": "matryona12",
  "license": "MIT",
  
  "dependencies": ["base"],
  "factorio_version": "0.18"
}

and:

1. The shortest mod, that makes range exactly twice larger than vanilla:
place this code in your mod folder into the file data.lua:

Code: Select all

data.raw["ammo-turret"]["gun-turret"].attack_parameters.range = 2*18 -- default is 18
data.raw["electric-turret"]["laser-turret"].attack_parameters.range = 2*24 -- default is 24

2. The mod with mod settings:
Create the file settings.lua, paste this code:

Code: Select all

data:extend({
    {
        type = "int-setting",
        name = "gun-turret-range",
        setting_type = "startup",
        minimum_value = 18/3,
        maximum_value = 3*18,
        default_value = 18
    },
    {
        type = "int-setting",
        name = "laser-turret-range",
        setting_type = "startup",
        minimum_value = 24/3,
        maximum_value = 3*24,
        default_value = 24
    }
})

This into the data.raw:

Code: Select all

data.raw["ammo-turret"]["gun-turret"].attack_parameters.range = settings.startup["gun-turret-range"].value
data.raw["electric-turret"]["laser-turret"].attack_parameters.range = settings.startup["laser-turret-range"].value

You can also add the locale for your mod:
/locale/EN/locale.cfg:

Code: Select all

[mod-setting-name]
gun-turret-range=Gun Turret Range
laser-turret-range=Laser Turret range

/locale/RU/locale.cfg:

Code: Select all

[mod-setting-name]
gun-turret-range=Дальность стрельбы турелей
laser-turret-range=Дальность стрельбы лазерных турелей

Thanks a lot, but because of my stupidity i managed to get it working from 100500 try.
