[Resolved 0.4.0] [minor imperfection] die() method

[rk84]

I tested this method with couple entity types and find that it does not trigger dying sound and does not spawn corpse for unit type.

I though it might have been forgotten, since dying_explosion for spawners and turrets work.

Ps. oh I forgot. Based on wiki there should be sethealth, but it is missing in game.

Hi thank you for the report.

You are right with the die, it was inconsistency in our code, fixed for 0.4.
The health has been changed, now the access is through the operator =, I will update the wiki after the 0.4 is released.

Code: Select all

unit.health = 5 -- set unit health
print(unit.health) -- read unit health

Edit: PS: testing this ingame with command

Code: Select all

game.player.character.getselected().die()

Feels like finger of death

I have spent many hours with black & white, it would be amazing if Factorio had a god mode that rivaled it so amazing I think I would probably forget to eat/sleep for several days or maybe weeks

Now if only I could find/win/earn a million dollars and make sure it happens
