[kovarex] [1.0.0] Spidertron legs stretched by belts (1000+ tiles)

Post by bobby45800 »

Hi,

See image. If you stand on belt and normal surface on either side of water, void or whatever, the legs attempt to keep on some surface but are pushed further and further away by the belts.

Our record so far is 1024 tile stretch from the body to the end of the stretched leg. Update: you can set it up so that the legs can stretch as long as you can run a belt (so theoretically infinitely far).

Have fun,
Bobby

The nice thing about Windows is, it doesn’t just crash, it displays a dialog box and lets you press “OK” first :)

Possible dupe: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=87915

I suggest changing the title to "Spidertron legs made longer by belts" or something like that.

Hi,

I realised that I must have missed this bug report, because it was marked as "not a bug", a category I had not checked for dupes. Also thanks to whichever mod/dev changed the title to something more appropriate - I was having a bit too much fun at 2am and apparently had difficulties coming up with a good name :)

Thanks,
Bobby

BTW, this behavior is mentioned in the Spidertron Wiki page:
Factorio Wiki wrote: Spidertrons legs can be moved by belts which can be prevent by inserting belt immunity equipment into its equipment grid.
