[Bilka] [2.1.19] Decorative "white-desert-bush" and "green-desert-bush" order wrong

Post by lotwaret »

In Factorio\data\base\prototypes\decorative\decoratives.lua 3391:

Code: Select all

...
name = "white-desert-bush",
type = "optimized-decorative",
order = "b[decorative]-g[red-desert-bush]",
...
In Factorio\data\base\prototypes\decorative\decoratives.lua 3578:

Code: Select all

...
name = "green-desert-bush",
type = "optimized-decorative",
order = "b[decorative]-g[red-desert-bush]",
...
And red-desert-bush has the same order.

Multiple prototypes can have the same order string, they get sorted by prototype name in that case. Decoratives are only shown in the map editor, so it is not worth the time to find all the orders that are the same and make them unique. It would not change the sorting anyway. The words used in the order string themselves are meaningless, the game just sorts the strings alphabetically.
