Alternatively, to make it MP-happy, have a player constantly follow you around. When they see there's a train on the tracks, they shove you off!

I'm going to go ahead and rename the mod folder and every other place the mod name is mentioned because, its a little annoying. I mean sure I don't see the name in game but, all capsing the name and making it a joke is well, not very good for making people want to use this. I've chosen to rename it to "Dodge Trains". But if you want to consider other names, "Self Preservation" "Fear of Trains" are the only two I can think of at the moment.

The info file I altered, if you wish to change yours. :P I added a home page (the link to this mod) and a proper description. I have not redistributed this, I simply did it on my own end.

Code: Select all

{
	"name": "Dodge Trains",
	"version": "1.0.1",
	"title": "Dodge Trains",
	"author": "GotLag",
	"homepage": "https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=97&t=21725",
	"description": "Makes players move off the tracks when a train is coming, based on settings.",
	"dependencies": ["base >= 0.12.00"]
}

Well this won't improve the mod itself and the naming is by dicision of the author.

Yes I know, its just a name that makes the mod seem like a joke is all. I tried to rename it myself but the mod crashes instead before I can load it so meh. I just wanted to suggest a more serious name. I mean sure, its funny but the name the way it is, is hard to take seriously and stands out above all the other mods due to length and all caps. Rather annoying.

The name IS the mod, it's hilarious, could not have thought of a better name in a hundred years myself :D

Is multiplayer at least hypothetically possible?

But regular reloading is an essential part of the gameplay when trains are on the map...

Either that is sarcasm (Which I really, really hope) or that is an example of friggin social inertia, like how Dota type games still have denying as a mechanic, because the game was originally written by someone in Warcraft 3 using the Warcraft 3 bounty system.

I am reasonably confident that this will work in multiplayer. Added a loop to go through all players in game.
