Evolution and pollution statistics

Post by Ritn »

Hello,

I've been developing a mod for 2 years.
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/RitnTeleportation

It allows players to create their own map just like it does in solo. Each player who connects can create his own map and through teleportation portals join the map of another in this way.
In addition to the map created for the player, I create a force on behalf of the player as well as an enemy force dedicated to this map.

Precisely my problem comes from the enemies and especially from their evolution.
Indeed, the evolution is dedicated to the map because I use the

Code: Select all

on_chunk_generated
event to change the strength of the spawners by the strength created for this map.

Evolution by time is set to 0 because a player present on the server will evaluate the enemy strength of other players who are not connected at that time.

Evolution by destruction works correctly, no worries on that side.

The evolution by pollution poses a problem, because the pollution is calculated globally on the part and not by map. suddenly the pollution factor increases exponentially according to the pollution generated by all the players.

So my question is, is it possible to make pollution / map stats and not for the whole game globally?

origin:

Code: Select all

game.pollution_statistics
change to:

Code: Select all

game.surfaces['my_surface'].pollution_statistics
My but is of course that the evolution is equivalent to a solo game for each of the maps.

thank you.

Your post could've used some better formatting or something to better highlight your request.

For others, the tl;dr is this:

That said, I think it'd be nice to see this as well.

This would be super useful for Space Exploration for example, having pollution per surface essentially. Curious if this is at least being considered for 1.2, because I'm hoping it will include mutliple surfaces as well :D
