[Mod Request] Top left aligned quality icons

Post by Materio »

Hi everyone,

I would really like to have my quality icons aligned in the top-left instead of the bottom-left.
This should be real easy, I just don't know where to start.

Appreciate any infos on the subject! Thanks

Presumably you could do this with the quality_indicator_shift attribute on the entity prototypes, though I've never messed with it.

Not sure on icons though.

Well its either going to be 'invert the y value' or 'set x and y to 0' bc factorio anchors are either in the top left, or the center. I'm not sure where quality sets its own.

No, the quality_indicator_shift property is a vector from the bottom left corner of the selection box to wherever you want the quality indicator to be.
If you want to see the mods I've made, press one. If you need me to update a mod to 2.0, press two and enter my username. If you're looking for QA, press three. If you've been waiting over 1 and a half years for Digital Age, bad luck.

Well, I just finished the game myself a couple weeks back and I haven't touched anything related to modding yet. I had a look at the information but couldn't understand it. I have plans to dive into modding in the near future myself but for now, I was kinda hoping it was a 3 lines of code mod someone could just pull out of their hat in 5 minutes...

Thanks for the links
