[2.1.19]Most entities no longer show their circuit network numerical ID in their GUI

Post by calazor »

Normally, when an entity is connected to a circuit network, you can check the numerical connection ID by clicking them and seeing the GUI. The following image is an old screenshot, from 2.0:

This is always the case for most entities, but some function as expected. Through some testing, I've been able to determine that the following work fine: Any of the combinators, programmable speakers, display panels, and radars. Everything else has abnormal behaviour, like inserters, assembling machines, tanks, chests, roboports, etc.

It moved to the R / G checkboxes on hover.

Good Luck!

Oh, I totally missed that. Thanks for showing how to view it, it's quite useful.
