Hi,

I'm stumped by something.
For some reason, my code is not detecting the fertility value in a table.

The CurrentTile name matches the value in the table, but it's saying it's not in the table.
The Vanilla table works perfectly, but not Alien Biomes table.

Does the values in a table need to be sorted or something?

This is my table:

Code: Select all

--------------------

The Mod detection works, and if Vanilla everything else works, but when Alien Biomes is installed, I capture the Current tile, but for some reason it's not matching that to the table.

From the image below, you see the tile being read, but then it says that that tile name is not in the Fertility table.

Here is the Code of the Control:

Code: Select all


-- All tree Growing stuff

require ("stdlib/event/event")
terrains = require("libs/trees-and-terrains_alien_boimes")

Can anyone see what I've done wrong?
I've attached a SAVE - you can sinc to load and the Control file in question.

Thanks!

Code: Select all

if global.alien_biomes then

I don't see that you ever set this value, so it's probably nil, which means you're never actually using the large table. You probably want to use game.active_mods['alien-biomes'] instead. Remember that the game object only exists in events though, so you'll have to move the table creation into on_init/on_load.

Edit: Also the code that prints "Alien Biomes Detected: true" doesn't appear in the code you've posted ?_?
Maybe try to print the whole Bi_Industries.fertility table in seed_planted_trigger using serpent.line() to see if you're actually using the right table? Also that function has a typo at the start: "local fretility".

Hey
I initialize that global in the main control.lua. in both On_init and On_Configuration_Change Sorry I did not post those here.

Code: Select all

	if game.active_mods["alien-biomes"] then 
		global.alien_biomes = true
		global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name = "vegetation-green-grass-3"
	else
		global.alien_biomes = false
		global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name = "grass-3"
	end

This part I tested and it works. Vanilla works fine and I detect the mod.
With Vanilla, the table works, but as soon as I add Alien Boimes, it seems to stop reading the table values.
P.S. in the main control I also print the mod detect line:

Code: Select all

script.on_event(defines.events.on_trigger_created_entity, function(event)
	--- Used for Seed-bomb 
	local ent=event.entity
	local surface = ent.surface
	local position = ent.position
	local force = ent.force
	local New_tiles = {}
	
	writeDebug("Alien Biomes Detected: ")
	writeDebug(global.alien_biomes)
	-- Basic
    if global.bi.seed_bomb[ent.name] == "seedling" then
		writeDebug("Seed Bomb Activated - Basic")
		seed_planted_trigger (event)

	
	-- Standard
    elseif global.bi.seed_bomb[ent.name] == "seedling-2" then
		writeDebug("Seed Bomb Activated - Standard")
		writeDebug(global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_s)	
		surface.set_tiles{{name=global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_s, position=position}}
		seed_planted_trigger (event)


		
	-- Advanced
    elseif global.bi.seed_bomb[ent.name] == "seedling-3" then
		writeDebug("Seed Bomb Activated - Advanced")
		writeDebug(global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_a)	
		surface.set_tiles{{name=global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_a, position=position}}
		seed_planted_trigger (event)

    end
	
end)

Okay, so I removed the whole mod check section,

Code: Select all

if global.alien_biomes then

so now I just have one large table, regardless if Vanilla or Alien Biomes installed.
This fixed the table issue I have, but I still have something wrong....

I noticed that the snow is not changing terrain types:

They way I switch out terrains, is by using "set_tiles" in below.

Code: Select all

    elseif global.bi.seed_bomb[ent.name] == "seedling-2" then
		surface.set_tiles{{name=global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_s, position=position}}
		seed_planted_trigger (event)

I've defined "global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_s" as:

Code: Select all

	if game.active_mods["alien-biomes"] then 
		global.alien_biomes = true
		global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_s = "vegetation-green-grass-3"
		global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_a = "vegetation-green-grass-1"
	else
		global.alien_biomes = false
		global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_s = "grass-3"
		global.bi.seed_bomb.terrain_name_a = "grass-1"
	end

What would cause snow not to change??

I know it's hard finding the error by looking at these snit-bits of code. So I've attached the entire mod.

Look how nice vanilla looks:

But as soon as I add Alien Biomes, then the terrain does not always change. Most do, but snow for one does now. And the trees also don't grow as they should.
Below is the snow image again, for some reason, no trees grew.

I initialize that global in the main control.lua. in both On_init and On_Configuration_Change Sorry I did not post those here.

The hooks setup via on_init(), on_load(), on_configuration_changed() and on_event() are executed *after* control.lua is executed to completion. If you think about it, this has to be the case since you can't even have called on_init() before control.lua runs. In other words, when your table setup code runs, your global flag has not yet been initialized.

Thanks Therax and thanks Eradicator for looking at this!

I've removed all my mod detecting from on_init(), on_configuration_changed()
Almost everything works now, just some terrains that for some reason don't convert when using Alien Biomes. But it's not the end of the world.
