Hey,

it would be nice if the screenshot names could be "NAME" (from config), and then not 1 , 2 , 3 but 0001 , 0002 , 0003

I'm not quite sure what difference that would make, but I'm going to look into it later this week, it shouldn't be a problem

It's for sorting. Most of file sorting is string based so it would end up 1, 10, 100, 2 etc - adding 0's makes it work properly.

I didn't think of that, as I sort the screenshots by the time the file was created. Nevertheless I added this feature in version 1.3.0

Edit : Found it but for some reason this mod is making my game stay at night time an it no longer becomes day?

What exactly do you mean? Does the game turn to night and never turn back to day?
What version of Factorio / the mod are you using?

Using Factorio Version Latest : V0.11.22.

Using latest version of Time lapse mod "Nice Mod btw,"

So with my current mods before using "Time Lapse Mod" Games day an night cycles are fine,
Add in the Latest version of your mod and it stays night.

I used the Factorio Command to force Day / Alwaysday=true , It goes day for a quick second an then it goes back to Night.
Not sure if its the mod/game but thought id mention it to find out.

Im going to start another game an see if it does it again but thought id post about it.

Could you also post your config file for this mod, as there might be a conflict with the way I handle my "only daytime screenshots" option.

This is the thread for the old version of this mod (for Factorio version 0.11.xx).
If you use the current version of Factorio (0.12.11 and upwards) please use this version of the mod.
