My OCD is happy with eco modules being symmetrical at 15% reduction on each component

like 1/3 or 1/2 of the rating of the normal module?

this would make it more interesting i think, it would be a choice then which one you pick =)

Modules:
Requirements: None.

Making like 300 Tier 8 Raw Speed Modules would take 10 hours by hand. And i need more than 300. Way more.

Basically add this

Code: Select all

function productivitymodulelimitation()
return {
        "empty-barrel", + other recipe names
      }
end

in the part for each productivity module add:

Code: Select all

    limitation = productivitymodulelimitation(),

But then ofcourse it is the thing with it is up to the player if he/she wants to exploit so i guess that may be the reason why those limitations aren't there !

add_productivity_limitation("steel-gear-wheel")

if add_productivity_limitation then
  add_productivity_limitation("steel-gear-wheel")
end

I have been experimenting with that, but havn't included it in a release yet.

The function will add what it contains at the point of execution. So to full work, you need to execute it LAST, IE, in the data-final-fixes.lua stage.

This gives other mods the opertunity to add to the function in the data and data-updates phase.

I just need to figure out the best way to add to the function, then write a list of every intermediate in every mod and include it.


Alternatively, I could write a function that I people can call in the data-updates phase (that I can call myself) that adds lines directly to the limitation= tag on all modules that include it. so for example, you could use the following and it will add that item to the list on every productivity module.

Code: Select all

add_productivity_limitation("steel-gear-wheel")

Of course the other mods will need to have a check to see if my function exists before trying to call it. that's easy enough though

Code: Select all

if add_productivity_limitation then
  add_productivity_limitation("steel-gear-wheel")
end

Remember, I haven't written it yet, so don't take this function name to be final.
