It has been done for a few months now.

In a large factory, I have dozens of trains, and I have to identify them by their stops... which is time-consuming. They also change their order on the page, so I can't remember them by their position.

With a Route Name, it would be MUCH easier to identify them, enabling simple Copy & Paste of their schedules to add throughput, etc.

In those cases some mods could totally have their buttons removed from the main screen, which I personally think it's pretty damn ugly.

How about a selection of colors (16, maybe 32) with a button for "custom color" with the current GUI?

I'd do that on my ores, so they can truely be dynamically created by my library mod, instead of having to manually add an icon for each that I define.

icon = "__mod__/icons/my-icon.png"

icons = 
{
  {
  icon = "__mod__/icons/-my-icon.png",
  tint = {r = 0, g = 0, b = 0.5}
  }
}

Tinting icons is already possible, instead of:

Code: Select all

icon = "__mod__/icons/my-icon.png"

you do

Code: Select all

icons = 
{
  {
  icon = "__mod__/icons/-my-icon.png",
  tint = {r = 0, g = 0, b = 0.5}
  }
}

is this in 0.14, or do I have to wait for 0.15 to use it?

It's in 0.14.

Additionally I expanded it to include support for scaling and shifting for 0.15 essentially allowing masks for icons.

Multi-layered icons don't seem to work properly on sprite buttons.

Or at least the colors we have signals for!
