I used to generate genetics, but now I don't want to.

even without RSO, tar and oil patches are not generated

yes? thats intentional.

Haven't play py in few months and started new game and don't see tar and oil either. Is that by design now?
Also, only see very small quartz patch around me and explored a bit and don't see more quartz, is that also by design?

Is there a good changelog/faq with recent changes over the last 2 or 3 months?

yes. you should have bitumen seeps on the map.

no thats not by design it should be more or less equal with the rest

Is there a good changelog/faq with recent changes over the last 2 or 3 months?

all the mods changelogs are up to date with major changes. i dont remember off the top of my head exactly what all was changed it the last 3 months vs since the release of pyalienlife.

Restarted new map and got bigger quartz ores after changing settings.

For bitumen seeps, are they supposed to be limited in size? I have 6 of those nodes with each showing amount of of ~1000-1200 (all my ores in that vicinity are in 50-60M) and I had settings for bitumen seeps fairly rich.

yes what you see is the starter waste and not the actual oil output.

There is still no bitumen seep on my map. There have already been three updates, but the situation has not changed. I opened the map through the console and nothing. There is only a message in the console:

They only show up in New chuck's

Well, I am using this command https://wiki.factorio.com/Console#Revea ... the_player standing somewhere around map edges to reveal new chunks that had not previously generated (completely black). I believe that should generate new chunks as if I was walking towards them.

I get new resource patches, but no bitumen seep (even after a lot of retries with 3k radius reveals in different map places).
Also occasionally I get console errors "Resource access failed for oil-mk01" and similar one for "... tar-patch".

I am playing with RSO enabled, if that matters.

Is there something I am missing? Thank you for your patience

Ya using rso makes a massive difference as rso handles all resource spawning. Make sure your on version 6.1.4 as its the update with bitumen seeps and try finding them again.

If your still not getting any then let the rso author know as theres an issue on their end.

I am having an issue where bitumen seeps generate but show 'fluid-name.drilling-waste' and do not (appear to) generate anything. gave it power, gave it drilling fluid, waited and nothing is coming out of it. pipes won't even connect to the output. what is happening? am i missing something?

how long did you wait. it should stop showing the dirt icon and show oil when its switched. it can take good bit.

Yeah, same here. Exact same.

Edit: Nope nevermind, it worked once it sat for a bit.

I'm running into an issue with infinite oil and tar. It's not actually infinite for me. I've got the setting for finite fluids set to false in the startup settings, but my oil wells and tar patches are still running dry. Poking around in the mod's files, it looks like oil patches and tar are all set to infinite = false, which is the same thing turning on the setting does. Effectively, it seems there's no way to make them infinite.

[pyanodon]

yeah..they arent infinite. use pumpjacks to provide them.

This error appears a few seconds after loading, when bitumen seep is depleted.
Upd.: If I understand correctly, global.oil_derricks is an empty table for whatever reason (I currently have only one derrick on map. I've used one before and it converted to an oil patch successfully, then I removed it and placed it at another bitumen seep).

Upd2: I've been able to fix if after I've replaced derrick, though, I'm not sure what exactly did help. But I have a guess what went wrong in the first place: I've removed derrick and then placed it again with Ctrl+Z and Ghost Placer mod, maybe that's the cause.

Hello. I'm trying to play with momo's pyanodon tweak on Factorio version 1 due to msp not being updated to 1.1, but it says there's not a compatible version on the mod portal. Can someone provide a working version for the previous major version of Factorio? Thanks.
