Of course, now that nuclear power is in vanilla, I'm wondering if I should change the recipe for the ion cannon. Maybe include a reactor?
Also launching the cannon gave space science packs.
IMO there is nothing wrong with that although I would reduce the total amount granted for IonC laumches.

Yeah despite the optimizations in 0.15 my UPS has really dipped, I'm guessing due to not being able to use this mod. (More biters nearby base).

This mod was neat but was always noisy, a bit cheap over all as well. I hope with 0.15 we have to create something a ton more expensive or have the option. I would expect something like this to cost insane amount of materials and density maybe even multiple shipments to modular build it. Maybe I'm a bit crazy..

A new "Marathon" or "Expensive" option sounds like it could be nice... :idea:

The game now does support mod settings both when creating a map and during the game... ;-)

Hey @Supercheese,

Your mod was my favorite in 0.14 after resource eraser. I even stopped playing factorio for a week, because I need to go out into the wild to extend my base, and nuking all these biters bores me to death. :)

When do you plan to release 0.15 update? Will changing the supported version in config file work, or should we wait for the update?

Ok, I've got some of the new features ready for the 0.15 update, but I've run into a nasty problem: the localization seems to have completely broken, and for the life of me, I cannot figure out why my locale/en/en.cfg file is not being loaded properly -- all I get is a bunch of "unknown key"s.

I've attached the preliminary version 1.5.0, in hopes that someone can help figure out the problem. A changelog is bundled, as always.

Sorted, thanks all.

Is there like a harder version vanilla users for the mod? Something requires 100k's of materials just to launch say was ion cannon?

Indeed -- however, I do not have whitespace in front of the equals signs, hence my confusion.

Also I noticed that ion cannon ready ticks is per player, wouldn't this make more sense as a runtime global?

the problem is cause of this line (twice define the same variable) :

Code: Select all

ion-cannon-voice-style=Play a klaxon sound whenever a target for an ion cannon is designated.
but I don't know why.

A simple copy paste error throwing the parser off like that? You should report that as bug.
