[API Docs] Wrong description in AmmoTurretPrototype
Posted: Tue Feb 03, 2026 12:31 pm
Hi
I think I found an error in the API docs.
For the AmmoTurretPrototype, the property automated_ammo_count does not give the correct description.
https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/pro ... ammo_count
It says it "Shift of the "alt-mode icon" relative to the turret's position.", but in reality it's about the limit of items that an inserter can put in the turret.
I searched for a while in the documentation to find out how to change this insertion limit without success, before finally trying this one despite the description.
And I tested it to check, and indeed it does not change the icon in alt mode.
With a value of 10 With a value of 100
Is that right, or am I missing something?
