Factorio Forums

Portal gui does not show properly in multiplayer.

Hi, thanks for the mod, looks like a pretty neat concept. I just installed the mod today and run it in a saved game, and noticed that the blue inserters are super fast (faster then normal, other insterters are normal speed, pre-homeworld mod installed). Is this part of the mod's "effects"?

I'm using Factorio 0.12.30

Mods installed:

Base mod
Crafted Artifacts
Homeworld
Rail Tanker
Specialied Oil Refineries
Warehousing mod

Just thought I'd ask.

Thanks and keep up the great work. It is appreciated and will keep me playing even more now... argggg, hehehe

Yes, the fast inserters are twice as fast and use 2x Energy to keep up with the huge supply going in to the Portal.

Have fun! It would be great if you could occasionally post screenshots, I have no idea how other people play with Homeworld.

Hey, looks like a very exciting mod, awesome idea.

However, when I try to run it, I receive an error saying 'homeworld is outside of package'. I have to note that I am running this on a mac, not sure if that would matter. Anyone else able to run it on mac version?

Also Tried running with the other mods I have loaded, as well I attempted it on a clean Factorio install.

Sorry had to remove the mod, after getting some fishes and and placing them in the teleport, all is good. Then I build a tree farm machine, and when I tried to insert a module in it, it gave me an error and the game completely crashed. (game closed) I am away on business trip for a bit, will try again on my return and get you the screen grabs of the error if it happens again..

cheers

I get an error message when i start the game with the Mod in the Mods Folder

path ../homeworld_1.1.0/ outside of package

v 0.12.30

Really wanted to play this mod because i just need a real mission to have fun. Not just like build a rocket and start it.

Oops. I've repackaged the mod, just download it again.

When you say tree farm machine, do you mean the Seeder? I just tested the seeder again and it worked fine.

Thanks. im sure this will be alot of fun

So, I tried again, same error. When I place a seeder on the grass, power it, then open the menu for the seeder, I try to install a T1 tree module in the empty place (next to the little seeder picture just above the 2 speed module boxes) this is the error that pops up, and the game crashes...

Mods installed on V. 0.12.30 are: (PC Game)

The FAT Controler 0.4.11

Edit: just to make sure, I disabled all the other mods, and same thing happens, same error.

outside of package um un rar it or un zip it once you do it works .
just right click on it and pickle extract here

What am I doing wrong?

Wanted to check this mod out because I love Anno and noticed that this is not working at all. I unrar it into both scenario folders to test it. Used Version 1.1 and my Factorio is version 12.30.

I start the scenario and have to generate a new map. But there is no portal and no portal in my inventory. Regen the map a few times but nothing happen...

Any idea?

Well the archive is a zip, not a rar. So you obviously have the wrong mod to start with. Download from the link in the first post. Also you dont unzip mods. You leave them as a zipped archive and just place the *.zip into your mods folder.

grr ^^ it doesn't matter if you use winRAR, Winzip or 7zip to unpack a packed file. ^^ I have the right file I'm not that bad with PCs at all Put it into the scenario folder and clicked "extract here" then deleted the zip file and tried to start the game as I start the other scenarios. Anything wrong?

having same error as regzzz running K&L inserters and bergius process.

Well you should still leave the zip as a zip and NOT unpack it. Try that and see if it works. If you absolutely insist on unpacking it then you need to manually clean up the Apple crap that is left in the archive. those are safely ignored while its zipped up. They likely bug the game when they're placed in the mods folder directly. Also WinRAR (not linux unrar) does mishandle some non default archive configurations. And files can misteriously have something wrong. Since the archive was zipped up on a mac this might also be the cause of your problem. Consider dropping winrar for 7zip or PeaZip or literally anything else other than Windows built in archiving which uses some M$ specific compression tweaks that not all utilities support yet.

So everytime I place or use a seeder or terraformer i get this [Error while running the event handler: __homeworld__/actors/terraformer.lua:28: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'last_step_tick' (a nil value)]
