I suppose the translator, my English, and my explanation are so poor that the problem is unclear.
I prefer to believe that, rather than have no one from Wube or the members of this forum see this and think that everything is fine.

Maybe it's because you didn't remove the hidden property from the entity, or because mining doesn't return an item.

I'm not sure, but you can start there.

I would like to help you more, but your code is not functional.

Thank you for the observation. English is not my native language.




I have created alternative recipes to create the items, but for some reason the intermediate products are not working.

I am attaching photographic evidence and test code showing the problem.

Note the number of transport belts ...

storage["MyPrefix"] = {}
local Save = storage["MyPrefix"]

Since you have worked with other languages, you surely understand the basic concepts of programming, so I will get straight to the point.

In Lua, variables do not have a specific type, so you must be careful with values and take advantage of that in your code.
Functions can be declared in two ...

Hello, it's been almost a month since my last post.

I was hoping to have an answer by now, but I still don't know where the error is or if it's a bug.

Today I downloaded version 2.0.72 and the error is still there.

If I need to create another separate post, I will if no one responds, because I ...

Hello, it's me again.
Yesterday I was updating the MOD that uses this code, and I was surprised to find that it doesn't work.

After carefully reviewing it, I found the reason.

Thanks for the information, I didn't know that property worked that way.

I tried it and it keeps the animation going, but regardless of whether or not it has power.

I tried an electrical interface, but it doesn't have connections for the red and green cables.

The roboport continues to win.

What you mean is...
It only works if the entity prototype has a GUI?

I can only find two entities that meet the requirements I'm looking for (Radar and Roboport):
1. The animation is infinite from the moment it is created (without player intervention).
2. It allows red and green cables to ...

I have a GUI that I want to open with the Radars.
When I try to open the radar GUI, the on_gui_opened event is not triggered.


script.on_event({
defines.events.on_gui_opened
}, function(event)
game.players[event.player_index].print("Event: Actived")
end)


What am I doing wrong?

This is what I need.

Thank you very much.

Seeing your response, it's possible that I didn't explain myself correctly.

I want to change the sound when selecting one of the options displayed.


I am already changing the style of the dropdown.


But, I still appreciate your response.

The following is the last code I tried, but it doesn ...

I tested your code and you're right.
Perhaps you should use another event.

on_equipment_inserted

Try it and let me know if it works for you. I'll be waiting to hear from you.

Hello, I am creating an interface and would like to customize the selection sound.

I created the custom dropdown style.

Thanks for the message.
The truth is that I solved it on my own ...

Hello, today I wanted to use a sound that comes with Factorio, but it is not available for use in mods. So I am trying to load it myself and then call it.
It is not working for me.

Help

Now I understand, thanks for the clarification.

Out of curiosity, at what point do the forces combine? I can't imagine a scenario where two forces merge.

robot256 wrote: Tue Jun 10, 2025 1:53 am

Thanks for the answer

I think the message got lost in translation.
The entities will be destroyed?
I have to change the force on the entities?
Please be more detailed, I don't know much about the force.

I want to program the event on_forces_merged, but I don't know what happens with the entities in forces to be eliminated, are they destroyed? are they kept and the force is changed? or what happens?

I know it's a simple question, but I don't know of an event that merges forces for testing.
