[0.11.11+] FARL 0.2.8 (Rail Layer)

[Vitduo]

Please, make the mod translateable

[Choumiko]

Getting a new type of crash when I came back to lay new line I had deleted a few tracks and then I started to go forward again and when I hit start or at least get to the end she crashes with the following error:

Edit: I found out this was caused by some how my engine flipping and causing it to sort of go backwards and cause this error.

Could be both, i'll look into it, thanks.

Please, make the mod translateable

It should be already. The gui uses locale files, only error messages are still hardcoded

If so, add the Ukrainian translation: https://www.dropbox.com/s/aj64qw3no6504py/FARL.zip?dl=0

Love this mod it needs a bump. Also a small bug I like to report. I'm using a double engine setup. I find the farl tends to place tracks based on the 1 engine and not the engine your in and direction your going. So if you are going to fast or actually just trying to gas it you end up hitting the edge of the track and stopping none stop. But then if you go the other direction it goes just fine. It seems like farl will take one engine into account and not the one your in I guess.

Thanks

New version: FARL 0.2.1

Changes:

• fixed that items got removed from all wagons
  fixed items not being removed for non vanilla wagons
  update cargo when de-/activated
  added ukranian translation

The first change was very "funny". Up until 0.2.0 if you had more than one wagon with items in it, FARL would take one rail/pole/lamp out of every wagon for each single item placed, so if you had 5 wagons with rails in it, each placed rail actually cost you 5 rails

I think i get what you mean, will try to fix this one tomorrow, this should also fix the other bug you reported (and which i completely forgot about until now, sorry)

Edit: updated link to 0.2.1

I'm not sure what that picture means. FARL supports placing powered rails from 5dims mod. The picture says you are using factorio 0.11.6, FARL won't work with that.

Here is a very rare crash I get at times. I can't ever really repeat it and it's super rare but just thought I post it anyways in case it does help. I was clicking the button to lay track and boom

can you get to do a 16 version? that would play, thank you in advance

This has been compatible with .16 since ver 1.9

If anybody is interested iv tweaked this mod to work with the landfill mod and allow the FARL to build across lakes let me know if you want me to upload my copy or if Choumiko wants my source to intergrate with his exelent mod.

Nice, that's something i would have done anyways sometime. If you post your source i'll include it in one of the next versions

Landfill and FARL working together ?
Make it happen guys !

I put the version 0.1.9
but still can not see ((to reset the codes.

New version FARL 0.2.2

Changes

• support for double headed trains
  FARL locomotive doesn't have to be the first wagon/loco

Should fix the issues Kane reported, you still have to sit in the FARL that faces in the direction you want to go though, but now even silly/funny setups like this should work:


@Airat: I absolutely don't know what you are trying to say. For FARL to work you need: Factorio 0.11.11 or higher and you need to research rail signals in your game. If you have rail signals researched try typing /c remote.call("farl", "reset") in the console and it should unlock. If it's another problem, please write a reply in your native language and provide a google translate with it, maybe then i can help you

[StoneLegion]

Thank you for the wonderful update.

[Cheata]

The changes i made are in the code sections below broken up by file and in the order of insert (seperated by ***************************)

Please note that in order to make this work i also modified the landfill mod control.lua with the following line

Code: Select all

remote.addinterface("Landfill",{})

however this is not necessary if a minor modification is made to my code.

simply replace each instance of

Code: Select all

if remote.interfaces["Landfill"] then

with

Code: Select all

if game.entityprototypes["landfill2by2"] then

its just that i perfer to test on interfaces.

also note that i have only modified the english language file somone else will need to make the necessary change in the uk.cfg

using landfill version 2.1.2 and working from FARL version 0.2.1

control.lua

Code: Select all

local function initGlob()

    if glob.flipSignals == nil then

New version FARL 0.2.2

not work in code
/c remote.call("farl", "reset")

um just a quick guess here but shouldnt the "farl" be "FARL" script is case sensitive isnt it?

[Cheata]

lol 3 posts in a row... now i just look like a spammer

But seriously just wanted to say iv just spent 10 min following the instructions i posted above with the new version of FARL (v0.2.2) and it seems to have worked fine (except for the comma i forgot at the end of line 44 in the GUI.lua).

Let me know if there are any problems i havent spotted yet
