Re: [MOD 0.11.3]Filtered Splitters - N-way splitting and fil

It's an option on the graphics settings in the system menu.
For some reason it seems to no longer be enable by default, and must be turned on manually at some point after installing Factorio. *shrug*


Oh, and the error message about the ID missing addresses player directly. Other than that, I saw no references.

Additionally, the inserter arrows always point East (not a big problem) and also block the ALT overlay, so it's hard to tell what a specific splitter is filtering (kind of big problem).
I suspect that setting a non-zero radius while keeping an essentially infinite turn speed would fix the new issues.
Not sure about fixing the lost ID problem though.
The splitters losing the ID's is just because the original authors code isn't fleshed out. They will be finicky and if you edit them in any way other than changing the filters you will most likely have to re-place them all. They are a place and leave alone type of item. (and i don't have the time or will to expand on it)

The inserter arrows... in my game it does not show any inserter arrows. Could you tell me how to reproduce this?

I am always getting an error:
Error while running the event handler __Smartspliters__\control.lua:284: Map doesn't contain 1 player this function can't be used
Can't reproduce unable to break/replace. Please explain how to reproduce.

error: This could be a problem with something else in that pack, because I cannot reproduce this error. This happens when something is called from player in MP, which smartsplitters don't do.

And if we start it with MP we get an Desync :( the thing is it works sometimes and sometimes that comes we don't know with mod is it
Sorry for my bad English ! i will not remove it !

If you place it you get a Permanent Chunk error until you break it.

:mrgreen:
This is probably due to the inserter entity pickup and dropoff being at {1000000,0} causing it to generate a chunk there. This combined with the new chunk distance check probably is the cause for those errors.
The pickup and dropoff positions are such to ensure the inserter will never actually pick something up (as that might result in things disappearing for the player).
Changing that to 500000 or something will probably remove the error.

Would you mind point that out within the mod's code?
I never saw anything like that, and all the values/offsets seemed completely rational. :?
Would like to know what part I misunderstood, that's all. :oops:

Hmm. I would think that would've stuck out to me. Ah well.

But to clarify, it's no longer present in the .3 patch.
Also, the latest patch is courtesy of Grimshad, not myself.

Re: [MOD 0.11.6]Filtered Splitters - N-way splitting and fil

Post by ThaPear »

I've decided to improve this mod.

Updated for version 0.11.6
- Improved the code in many locations, removing several bugs with set and splitter management.
- The splitters should no longer stop functioning.

I've fixed 7 bugs with the splitter and splitter set management. This should greatly improve the stability of the mod.
I've also made it compatible with 11.6.
It seemed to work when I quickly started a multiplayer game and built some splitters. No extensive multiplayer testing has been done though.

My apologies for the long silence, I tend to lose interest in games rather violently.

See the first post for the new download!

Probably, I believe the latest change for mods was 0.11.3.

Did the error show up when loading an existing savegame?

I've uploaded a new version that should not give this error.
If it still does, could you provide more information?

I haven't looked into the code, so my guess might be wrong, but it could still happen because of:

Instead of making the numbers extremly high, why not making them extremly small?

Because then the inserter arrows show up inside the splitter. They look (and are) out of place in my opinion. It's 200 now, to ensure they're out of screen, but not too far away to cause chunk errors.

Not you at all Pear. You're one of my favorite people for making this mod, especially with the new update :D
Was referring to Alpha, for the pretty constant "requesting" others to make mods to fit his interests throughout the forum, instead of adapting to what's available, or doing the work themselves.
I'd just rather not read yet another request for a custom-made mod from him. :|

Thanks for the update ThaPear. I made further changes that I never posted to enhance the polish. If you would like, feel free to add this to your current mod: http://www.mediafire.com/download/3ukuc ... itters.rar

It simply ensures that the correct research is finished before it shows up and the build icon shows up in the right position.
