Factorio Forums

• requires a FARL at both ends of the train (direction doesn't matter)
• removes stuff in front and behind the train
• doesn't place anything besides the rail it drives on (and removes it afterwards)

• select a land tile nearby when replacing concrete (less odd looking stripes of land)
• fix concrete being removed when activating bulldozer
• fix error when picking up stone path
• removed unused/old settings

• fixed default blueprints for 0.12.32

• added option to toggle mirroring of concrete (157916)
• clearing trees that have other mining results than raw wood give about half the amount as manualy removing them would
• minor fixes

• works with Big Brother
• added norwegian locale by AlexSpandex
• might work with 0.13 (or not due to trainlength/circuit network changes)

• fixed creating out-of-map tiles when removing concrete on ribbon maps
• fixed placing concrete on out-of-map tiles

[*]collect/drop wood option now also affects stone from rocks

[*]cheat_mode/godmode does not drop wood/stone if the train is full

• FARL scans for ghost tracks in front of it when activating and follows them
• FARL can follow ghost tracks on its own (Select "Drive without me" once FARL has detected ghost tracks)
• added equipment grids to locomotives. Any locomotive with a FARL-Roboport equipped will now work like FARL
• fixed blueprints for entites with direction/recipe (e.g. Flamethrower)
• FARL raises on_robot_built_entity/on_robot_pre_mined events whenever an electric pole is created/destroyed

There are 2 remote functions to tell FARL whether it should raise on_robot_built_entity/on_robot_pre_mined events for a specific entity:
- remote.call("farl", "add_entity_to_trigger", "entity-name")
- remote.call("farl", "remove_entity_from_trigger", "entity-name")

To make it work just add FARL as an optional dependency in your info.json and do the remote.call in on_configuration_changed.
FARL stores the names in global and only removes them if the interface is used or the entity doesn't exist anymore (checked in on_configuration_changed)

• added hotkey (J) to toggle between automatic/manual mode when inside a train (Hotkey is only added when Honk isn't installed)
• fixed FARL only reading blueprints in the first 3 quickbar rows
• fixed error when removing trees that don't drop an item when mined
