I am not so sure about this. I think when you die in MP player is still valid just the player.character entity is not. but then again I guess if you are using values from the character entity then you will need to. sooooo disregardI will still need to restore the GUI for the respawned player.
Yes, you are right. Somehow I was thinking about on_player_created and didn't realize on_player_respawned is a different thing.Nexela wrote:I am not so sure about this.

Unfortunately, even a delay before raising the event doesn't help. I have submitted a bug report for this: [0.14.2] on_built_entity error if others destroy the entityNexela wrote:3. Instant BP doesn't like placing items which are immediately destroyed and replaced by a mods on_built_event
Regarding GUI, how are the [?] links working? Have you just set tooltip on label or are they buttons with no background? Just wondering as I'm planning to do something similar in my radio mod.Mooncat wrote:A small preview of the new GUI, still work in progress:

They are labels with tooltips. The descriptions for cheats are necessary, especially when not all people know what is cheat mode or god mode. But I think labels don't usually have tooltips, so I add [?] in caption to emphasize "If you don't know what it is, hover it to get 1 or 2 lines of details."aubergine18 wrote:Regarding GUI, how are the [?] links working?

hm... no, we have only a few bug reports just because people haven't played with the related features. Like the config bugs that were fixed in the last version. I haven't used them since v0.1.0. But when I remade them, I was surprised that they don't even work! I think they have already been broken by the optimization in v0.1.1 but no one noticed.Nexela wrote:It is so low cause your code doesn't have bugs
Mooncat wrote:Nexela wrote: I think we still cannot unhide items in runtime? I don't want to remove their "hidden" flag during data phase, as people may not like to see them in the requesting / filter slots in normal games. I want to fix this issue too, not only for the loaders but also for all creative items, but I don't know a valid solution.
Code: Select all
Version 0.2.0:
- New:
- New GUI after Creative Mode is enabled. With it, you can:
- enable or disable cheats whenever you like
- change build options (not yet finished)
- print events in console
- check remote interfaces
- control the accessibility of different options for non-admin players in multiplayer games (not yet finished)
- Cheats are separated into Personal Cheats, Team Cheats and Surface Cheats:
- Personal cheats: each player can have different set of personal cheats enabled.
- Team cheats: each cheat applies to all players in the selected teams (forces).
- Surface cheats: each cheat applies to the selected surfaces.
- New cheats:
- Personal cheats: keep last item, instant request, instant trash, god mode
- Team cheats: creative tools' recipes, railgun recipes, instant research, reach distance, mining speed, running speed, chart all, kill all units
- Surface cheats: peace mode, kill all enemies
- New options for the start-game popup: Yes with cheats, No permanently
- New entities: Super Loader, Super Boiler, Super Cooler.
- Now you can copy-and-paste between duplicating chests. If the first slot of the copied chest is occupied by an item, this item will fill the pasted chest. Otherwise, the pasted chest will be cleared.
- Loader, Fast Loader, Express Loader, Railgun and Railgun Dart are now included inside the creative chests.
- Item Source is renamed to Matter Source. When no filter is set, it can provide materials according to the crafting recipe in its target crafting machine, provide science pack to its target laboratory, or any items according to the filters on its targets (e.g. filters on cargo wagon).
- Item Void is renamed to Matter Void. When no filter is set, it can also nullify fluids in its front.
- A little bit further optimization for Item Source (now Matter Source), Item Void (now Matter Void) and Duplicator (now Matter Duplicator).
- Added left click sound for buttons.
- Fixes:
- Fixed unsynchronised GUI for creative chest in multiplayer game when two or more players are checking the same chest.
- Changes:
- Factorio version is now required to be equal or higher than 0.14.7 (from 0.14.4)
- New recipe category icon.
- Reordered items and recipes.
- The creative tools' recipes are no longer automatically enabled together with Creative Mode. You need to enable the new team cheat - creative tools' recipes - to enable them.
- All config for Item Source (now Matter Source), Item Void (now Matter Void), Duplicator (now Matter Duplicator) are removed from config.lua. Instead, you can now configure each individual entities in game just like the creative chests.
- Removed the popups for enable/disable cheats. Use the new GUI to do that instead.
- Removed remote.call("creative-mode", "creative_chest_per_cycle"), since the total number of item groups have already been shown in the creative chest GUI.
- Removed remote.call("creative-mode", "instant_blueprint", true|false), use the new GUI to enable/disable it.
- Removed remote.call("creative-mode", "instant_deconstruction", true|false), use the new GUI to enable/disable it.
- Minor Changes:
- Duplicator is renamed to Matter Duplicator.Should have an option to clear inventory and clear/transfer inventory of a player see https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... ntory_for/Mooncat wrote:Player Selector
Needs a 4th magic wand, mod debuggerMooncat wrote:Magic Wands - there will be 3 magic wands, each for different purposes: Create and Destroy, Heal and Revive, and Property Changer.
I will shoot you over an example of what I have so far soon. Right now it gets entity/item data, Gui flow charting (this is really handy)I think making another mod for that is more appropriate. It is overkill for having Creative Mode if he just wants to check the inventories of other players and get back items from them. And the player selector is a multi-selector, so it doesn't work well in this case.Nexela wrote:Should have an option to clear inventory and clear/transfer inventory of a player see https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... ntory_for/Mooncat wrote:Player Selector
My idea about the Property Changer included showing the entities statistics by using LuaPlayer::print_entity_statistics (though I haven't used it and don't know what will the result be). But your mod debugger sounds much better. I'm waiting.Nexela wrote:Needs a 4th magic wand, mod debuggerMooncat wrote:Magic Wands - there will be 3 magic wands, each for different purposes: Create and Destroy, Heal and Revive, and Property Changer.

It is already there, you just need more than one surfaces. For example, build a factory of Factorissimo and you will immediately see the surface selection list.Nexela wrote:Request Surface cheats act like team cheats and show each surface!

Just want to make sure you didn't get it wrong: the right side shows the common status of all the selected teams. If any team has different status on any cheat, such cheat will appear to have no status.
E.g. You have selected team Player and Enemy, both of them have Instant Research enabled, so the Instant Research cheat also appears to be enabled.
Then, someone disabled Instant Research for Enemy, so you don't see the status of Instant Research anymore. Deselecting any of them will make the status appears again.
If you have already known it and there is still problem, please provide more details.
I am one step behind yet againIt is already there, you just need more than one surfaces. For example, build a factory of Factorissimo and you will immediately see the surface selection list.Nexela wrote:Request Surface cheats act like team cheats and show each surface!
Same goes to Personal Cheats, you need another player to join the game.
I suppose I can wait till .15 for thisI like this idea. But it is a little bit hard to do.Nexela wrote:Request Surface - Teleport to spawn coords on surface
I want it to be a Personal Cheats, since it will only affect the individual player, not the whole surface. Also, admins will have the power to teleport other non-admin players.
But that means I will have to make another list for selecting which surface to teleport to. I think I will wait for the new UI API in 0.15. Hopefully I can use combo box for that.
These would be like super cheats Maybe having them under Magic Wand stuff might be better. Also an additional one for Destroying all doodads. My main use for Creative Mode is mod development/debugging Hence having quicker access to stuff like this is always better.I am not sure about these. I wonder whether they are necessary.Nexela wrote:Some of these might be planned under your "build" menu just posting them here for ideas
Request - Team cheats - destroy all entities on team
Request - Surfaces - destroy all entities on surface
More importantly, I worry about their performance issue. You can already see that with Surface Cheat - kill all enemies. It can really make the game hangs for minutes when applied on large surface.
I always forget about that modI think I have to say no for these, at least for now.Nexela wrote:Request - Surfaces - destroy surface
Request - Force - remove force
Destroying surfaces without creating new ones is not very useful. And such action is very likely to break mods like Factorissimo.
Maybe I will add the option for creating surfaces, and then destroying surfaces. But due to the complicated UI, this will only happen after 0.15 is released.
About force, it is more complicated. AFAIK, we can't simply remove a force. We have to merge it with another existing force. It makes sense because we have to settle down players after we have removed their team.
And creating a new force is not easy either. You will have to set its relationship with other existing forces, and then transfer players to it.
This whole thing becomes force management and I think SpaceBook or any force management mod is more suitable for that.

It means that I don't know anything except their names. It is a little bit useless, but at least you know what methods they provide.
To actually use them, you will need to take a look on their documents first.
I will add info about this on the UI.
Haven't played around with expansion yetI will also add two more Surface Cheats:
- Remove all enemies (not kill them, simply remove them. No loots. Less lag, i guess)
- Don't spawn enemies (new chunks will have no enemies at all)
By the way, have you tried setting the expansion min and max CD (in Cheats > Game Settings) to 0? The aliens are so fun to watch. Remember to turn on god mode.
I will try about that. I wonder the error will force quit the game. But yea, I can add a config for that, maybe directly on the UI.Nexela wrote:Ohh I shall attempt to explain this a little better.Mooncat wrote:Unfortunately, this is technically impossible.

It would (attempt) to call them without any arguments.
so if a mod had a printGlobal interface clicking the button would run remote.call(label.interface.caption, button.interface.caption)
Granted this may cause errors with interfaces that require parameters so possibly a config switch to enable them
This in the future could go one step further. clicking the interface name opens up a gui with 6 textboxes each one representing an argument to pass.
