Like FuryoftheStars commented, you can access force.technologies["tech-name"].researched (read and write). You definitely should listen to these events
So, not exist difference queues for each team.
I am right??
I'm sorry, I'm reading the word "queue" differently then how I intended my post to be interpreted.

- Each team investigates the technologies separately??
- When researching a technology, does it affect both teams?
- Each team has a different technology queue??
Yes: All technologies in the game can be researched by all forces (even the biters have force.technologies although they'll never research anything -- at least in vanilla). But each force must research individually, so if force A has researched cars (for example), force B must also research it before they can build cars.
Yes. For example, if a force has researched the rocket silo, you could reset all their research so they must start over again. That wouldn't make sense, but you could do it.And i can use the events to do any i want (or can).
Code: Select all
for _, Force in pairs( game.forces ) do
log( "'" .. Force.name .. "'" )
end
'player'
'enemy'
'neutral'
'conquest'
'ignore'
'capture'
'friendly'
Each game will always have the default forces: 'player', 'enemy', and 'neutral'. Mods can create additional forces, so eventually, there may be a maximum of 64 forces in a game. You have a mod that added 'conquest', 'ignore', capture', and 'friendly'.yaim904 wrote: Mon Mar 14, 2022 11:48 pm LuaForce I feel that the guide lacks more information and/or details.
When I tried to see the name of the forces it showed me this.Code: Select all
for _, Force in pairs( game.forces ) do log( "'" .. Force.name .. "'" ) end 'player' 'enemy' 'neutral' 'conquest' 'ignore' 'capture' 'friendly'
It depends. In the most simple case, there could be just the three default forces, and all players belong to force 'player'. But you could do this:What would it look like in a team multiplayer?
Code: Select all
script.on_init(function()
game.create_force("all_players_are_here")
end)
script.on_event(defines.events.on_player_created, function(event)
local player = game.players[event.player_index]
player.force = game.forces["all_players_are_here"]
end)
Code: Select all
script.on_init(function()
local new_force = game.create_force("second_player_force")
new_force.set_friend('player', true)
end)
script.on_event(defines.events.on_player_created, function(event)
if event.player_index % 2 == 0 then
local player = game.players[event.player_index]
player.force = game.forces["second_player_force"]
end
end)
Code: Select all
local force = game.player.force
force.set_friend(other_force, Boolean)
force.set_ceasefire(other_force, Boolean)
Code: Select all
local is_friend = function(force, other_force)
return force.get_friend(other_force)
end
local is_neutral = function(force, other_force)
if force.get_ceasefire(other_force) and not force.get_friend(other_force) then
return true
end
end
local is_enemy = function(force, other_force)
if force.get_friend(other_force) or force.get_ceasefire(other_force) then
return false
end
return true
end
All forces have the property force.players (a table). In unmodded games, game.forces['enemy'].players and game.forces['neutral'].players will be empty, and game.forces['player'].players will be a list of all players in the game. So you could do this:I want a way to identify the forces that contain the players.
Code: Select all
for f, force in pairs(game.forces) do
local p = next(force.players) and true or false
game.print("Force "..f.." has players: "..tostring(p))
end
