I was screwing around with mods to figure out something and I found a peculiar problem.

This recipe don't work correctly:

Here is the code

Factorio says "Not enough ingredients" even if I have both "transport-belt" and "perfectly-generic-object" in my inventory.

The recipe works correctly if I change amount of transport belts to 1.
It also works with 0 amount of ingredient in different configuration:

What does including 0 transport belts in a recipe actually mean?

Yeah it seems that transport belt line is totally not needed in your recipe.

Here's the entire code block from my "Free Circuit Wires" mod.

Code: Select all

data.raw["recipe"]["red-wire"].ingredients = {} 
data.raw["recipe"]["green-wire"].ingredients = {}

It doesn't mean anything. I've been testing something else and I found this by accident.
Handling of 0 amount by the game is inconsistent so it qualifies as a bug.

So I just made a check with an error when recipe ingredient item count is 0.

After the next update I will report if everything work correctly.

Looks like it works.
(Well recipes with 0 amount of an ingredient probably still don't work but you definitely can't define one now.)
