Added modifiers to the character entity that stack with the force research bonuses but are unique to the character: character_crafting_speed_modifier, character_mining_speed_modifier,
character_running_speed_modifier, character_build_distance_bonus, character_item_drop_distance_bonus, character_reach_distance_bonus, character_resource_reach_distance_bonus,
character_item_pickup_distance_bonus, character_loot_pickup_distance_bonus, quickbar_count_bonus, character_inventory_slots_bonus, character_logistic_slot_count_bonus,
character_trash_slot_count_bonus, character_maximum_following_robot_count_bonus, character_health_bonus

I heard these modify the charactor, seperate from reasearch. where exactly would you use these?

Perhaps to temporarily immobilize/disable/restrict a character in certain situations.

About this character_running_speed_modifier , it seems to be an additive/substractive modifier (?), and not a multiplicative one (when it is equal to 0, it has no effect). So, to use it efficiently on temporary changes (especially if i want to slow down the character), it would be nice to know the current max running speed of the character. But I cannot figure out how to do it. Nothing on EntityPrototype. An idea Rseding ?

Edit : character_running_speed_modifier seems to be additive on a multiplier modifier.
when -1, the character has no speed, -0.5 half speed, 0 the normal speed, 1 double speed, etc....

But i would still like to know the basic maximum running speed of my character... (with exoskel, etc...)

Are there any examples around on how to use "electric-energy-interface"?

I used it in my Electric Void mod, to create a big producer and a big consumer for testing purpose.

I've been meaning to write some examples and put them on the wiki but I keep getting distracted fixing bugs

Just as a point of interest.
transport-belt-to-ground was renamed to underground-belt
pipe-to-ground was not renamed to underground-pipe.

Added new research options: character-crafting-speed, character-mining-speed, character-running-speed, character-build-distance, character-item-drop-distance, character-reach-distance, character-resource-reach-distance, character-item-pickup-distance, character-loot-pickup-distance, character-inventory-slots-bonus, deconstruction-time-to-live, character-health-bonus

Does anyone know how to use these, because i tried adding a research for the mining speed, similar to the lab speed that is already in game, but it did not work.

Something like how this mod does it: https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Klonan/C ... d_Research

You mean... the completely incorrect way to do it?

All you have to do is delete the control.lua in your mod and add the proper effect type to the research so it applies it automatically:

Code: Select all

effects =
    {
      {
        type = "character-crafting-speed",
        modifier = 0.1
      }
    }

I have no idea. This is the second mod i tried to do (btw i dont know lua). I fixed all the errors it gave but it doesnt change neither the mining speed, nor the crafting speed after i researched it.

Finally it is working, and i think the problem was that i was on 0.13.3 because after i updated to 0.13.6 it worked. So here is my mod: viewtopic.php?f=92&t=28690

Add the tag to the info.json: "factorio_version":"0.13" indicating the mod works with that version.

Can this be updated in the modding tut?
