Hey, what's the license for this mod? I'd like to make a variant of it...

If you want to change it for your own use/your friends - do what you want.

If you want to change it and make a new forum post with the modified version: link back to this post stating where it came from and that you've modified it in some way.

Hello Rseding91!

I REALLY love this mod.

I read through this whole thread, or skimmed it thoroughly at least. I also searched the topic, but sorry if I missed these already.
I had a few suggestions for features if you were wanting to add some.


1. Allowing construction bots to lay landfill?
2. Allowing the Water-Be-Gone to be used from a bit further away from your body?

3. Currently when laying blueprints on trees in 0.12 you can hold shift and it will actually cut down the trees and make the blueprint. If you implement construction bots being able to lay landfill, perhaps you could add it so shift+blueprints will landfill any area that an object is trying to be built on but can't due to water. Specifically not using the bigger landfill so it's closer to a 1x1 ratio of blueprint to landfill.

I do realize 3 would be probably harder than 1 and 2. Thanks for your time and thanks again for his great mod!

Regardless, thanks for the awesome mod!

Hello there, to begin with.
If I try to load an old world, or create a new one I get the Error:
"__Landfill__/control.lua:13: attempt to index global 'script' (a nil value)"
I have a few mods (mainly bob's) in my folder, but disabling them did not change the Error.
Is there something we can do?

Edit: I am using Factorio 0.12.8 atm

You need to update to 0.12.11 or later.

If you're getting that error then you're not on 0.12.12. Try re-downloading the game from the main website (experimental section) and see if you get the same error.

Is there anywhere I could download a 12.10 compatible version? Neither version in the main post works in 12.10.

Edit: I found version 2.1.6 that works fine. Unsure if you would want me sharing a link to a re-hosted version of your stuff so I won't.

Just update the game to 0.12.11 or 0.12.12.

Just update the game to 0.12.11 or 0.12.12.

I am now at 0.12.13 and the mod still does not work. In fact, many mods no longer work for me. I think something has changed, so you need to access the 'game' variable later.

Not a mod developer, just interpreting the error message.

At .12.11 or .12.12 (or around there) game.xxxx was changed to script.xxxx which broke 99% of mods.
That said, I'm using .12.13 and so far have not run into any issues with Landfill that my limited scripting knowledge hasn't been able to overcome

That's why I said 0.12.11 or 0.12.12

How do you download older versions of your mods? I am running Factorio 0.12.10

Interested in:
Landfill 2.1.6
Fluid Void 1.0.1
Compression Chests 1.3.7

You can't, you'll have to update to the latest: 0.12.19. I don't support versions past the latest Factorio stable and experimental (if I made the mod when the last stable existed).

Why isn't this in the base game already? it would be really usefull to have a tool like this and possibly the ability to build concrete foundations on water since it could add a bit more variety to the way the shore would look. btw really love the mod

Anyone know why this keeps happening while trying to bomb out a water area?

That's by design. The bombs aren't meant to let you make a moat where you're invincible from the biters. It's just a way to get water where there wasn't any more.

Instead of always choosing grass as the new land type, why not choose the type of land that is at the players position ?

I wouldn't be against that but the player can be any number of tiles away or on some built-only tile type when they place the landfills. How do you propose it function?
