New Dependencies Page

Post by vinzenz »

Hello there! We just launched a new dependencies page for mods. It shows both the dependencies of a mod as well as other mods that have it in their dependency list. We've also put in some sorting and filtering options for you ;) The data is based on the latest release for each mod and refreshed at least daily.

Amazing!

Bug report: When looking at hidden dependencies, changing the sort order switches back to the "default" dependency type.
I'm an admin over at https://wiki.factorio.com. Feel free to contact me if there's anything wrong (or right) with it.

Epic! Thanks for adding this :D

One small thing, I don't think the numbers should show in the tab heading. That space should be reserved for notifications IMO.

Otherwise, it has even more functionality that I hoped for! You're the best :D

Very good, the reverse look up is the feature i wanted to use the most and it's working for finding the tweak i couldn't find last time i attempted to find a tweak of an existing mod that didn't referenced it by its full name :)

In dependency view "Last Updated" is either wrong or misleading.
It shows 4 hours for mods that havn't been updated in years.

In case this shows when dependencies where last checked it should be renamed to "Last dependency check".

Thank you for your feedback! Reworked to page to be more precise about the meaning of "Last Updated"

npm has the numbers, so we'll have it too!
