Hello,

Before 2.0 player open the map (M) and if I had cutscene script in my control.lua, the map was automatically closed. This doesnt work right now, because classic map was replaced by remote view. I tryed to use

Code: Select all

player.exit_remote_view()

, but this also doesnt work. Even chatGBT is powerless.

Is there a way how to close player map /remote control in lua script? Thank you.

Ah, we just solved problem by using

Code: Select all

player.set_controller{ type = defines.controllers.god }

for 1 nanosec. This force player be in "god mode" to close remote view, then he immidietly return to normal state. Also it is possible to do it with teleport player (beware! not a character!).

But these are just workarounds which I am not very happy about...

I've added LuaPlayer::exit_remote_view() for the next release.
