Start getting accustomed to searching the API doc. The sooner you get used to how it is structured and get an idea what is in it, the more freedom you have while modding.

Take the item from the ground, you get the event.

Or press key to get event, on that you can check the position of the player.

How can I capture a key-press? I did not know, that this is possible.

You can add keys in data.lua: (code from https://mods.factorio.com/mod/OmniCar)

Code: Select all

data:extend ({
  {
    type = "custom-input",
    name = "go-north",
    key_sequence = "UP",
    action = "lua"
  },
  {
    type = "custom-input",
    name = "go-east",
    key_sequence = "RIGHT",
    action = "lua"
  },
  {
    type = "custom-input",
    name = "go-south",
    key_sequence = "DOWN",
    action = "lua"
  },
  {
    type = "custom-input",
    name = "go-west",
    key_sequence = "LEFT",
    action = "lua"
  }  
})

control.lua:

Code: Select all

for i, go_direction in pairs ({'go-north', 'go-east', 'go-south', 'go-west'}) do
    script.on_event(go_direction, function(event)
        local player = game.players[event.player_index]
        local orientation = (i-1)/4 -- 0 to 1 
        move_to (player, orientation, go_direction) -- your function
    end)
end
