And to anyone else who might face-palm like myself, at least for the inventory book access , active blueprint from the blueprint book held in inventory can be grabbed with: stack.get_inventory(defines.inventory.item_main)[stack.active_index] I just failed to realise that books expose their inner con...

In fact, from what I can tell, it is not possible to do anything similar with the LuaItemCommon (when a BlueprintBookItem) either. We do have a LuaItemCommon.active_index if it is a blueprint book, but nothing to do with it?

Best regards,

I am actually baffled by this one as well. There are multiple mods I have which heavily depend on being able to access blueprint entities no matter where they are stored, and this kinda kills off a lot of their usability. This surely must be some kind of oversight? It would be useful even if we coul...

Always a pleasure, thank you for addressing this one.

Description When a player is placing an entity ghost in midst of transport belts while using super-forced build, the game automatically deconstructs underlying entities, and places down ghost undergrounds on either side of the newly-placed ghost entity in order to ensure the transport belt line is ...

In the meantime I have figured out why the crash started to happen in the mod - there were some changes to event properties that I did not adjust the code for - so some of the code that was supposed to switch back the force for unapproved ghost just before a new ghost gets pasted in never kicked in....

[2.0.14] Spidertron ghosts are not snap-placed to existing ghost entitties when using blueprints Description When trying to place a spidertron ghost on top of an existing spidretron ghost using a blueprint, the new ghost entity will not snap to existing one (effectively refusing to place/overwrite/r...

With the 2.0 game release, the player can now modify placed ghost entities - including recipes, filters etc. However... It looks like we still cannot programmatically easily access the "inventories" of ghost entities (primarily for the ability to modify the slot filters as mentioned by the...

Description When a player tries to do a super-forced build over existing ghost entities, there is a difference in behaviour, depending on ghost type, when the ghost entity's force is changed during the on_built_entity event.

Hello, Would it be possible to introduce some additional events related to changes being made to the LuaRecipe objects? While most of the usual recipe-related changes (like technology unlocks) are already covered by research-related events, mods can still change a couple of properties that do not se...

To chime in on this one since I have been maintaining a fork of the mentioned mod and faced similar issues as well (hello ceresward :) ), it would be even better if we could tell the game during runtime to ignore specific ghosts for bot-based construction. This would quite probably also trivialise t...

Thank you for fixing it this quickly

Does anyone know if quick-building rails (as opposed to building individual rails) is meant not to trigger the on_pre_build event? Is this really on purpose or probably a bug within the game?

Since I just got hit by this one, maybe I can at least try to shed some light on what I think happens. And in some ways, I am doing something similar where I register event handler for on_nth_tick, but only when required (my mod does some processing of delivered equipment, and if there's nothing mor...

This was fixed in 1.1.77 experimental.
