entity.get_inventories()

entity.get_inventories () -- returns a list of inventory defines valid for this entity Usually you know what inventory you want to use, but when you do not, it is a nightmare. Ultimately something like the above or another way to find out what items and how many you will get from deconstructing an e...

Re: copy-paste by blueprint should trigger an event

+1 for defines.events.on_blueprint_placed significant benefits could be gained using this in Constructron-Continued instead of using on_built_entity and processing every entity! I would need a way to see the area and position of the blueprint and required items to place the entities. I do not need p...

Re: [1.1.74] Pathfinder is slow when landfilling

Hi Rseding91! If I may, I would like to propose that an incremental update occur to the chunk that changed instead after the remainder of the path is found. i.e; A small incremental check to go from the last point on the previous tile to the first point on the next tile. This would assume that this ...

Add surface_index and force_index

Hello Requesting entity.surface_index and entity.force_index to be added instead of localizing entity.surface.index etc all the time. Klonan was part of the discord discussion and originally had this idea. https://discord.com/channels/139677590393716737/306402592265732098/1061295568678309939 thanks!

Re: New Event: on_entity_teleported, script_raised_teleported

+1 from me

Space Exploration's upcoming version will teleport spiders to other surfaces instead of cloning them so having a natural event-driven way to detect a surface change of a spider will be useful.

[1.1.74] Pathfinder is slow when landfilling

Hi I have been speaking to Klonan about this issue in Discord. How I came about this issue was I noticed the pathfinder was taking extremely long to find a path when I was testing my path retry settings for Constructron-Continued. Klonan was right to think it was the retry system / mod code and I co...

Re: [1.1.74] pathfinder issue

As discussed in discord.. In a minimal environment with the ability to test in real time it is obvious that the negative path cache was the issue.

/c game.map_settings.path_finder.use_path_cache = false


Thank you for your assistance!

[1.1.74] pathfinder issue

Hi If place a path request with a bounding box of something that I know will fail in the scenario that I am testing with like {{-5, -5}, {5, 5}}. When the path fails, the code changes the path request parameters including bounding box to be smaller, such as {{-0.015, -0.015}, {0.015, 0.015}}, and re...

[1.1.60] Desync bug

As per instruction by Bilka I have a desync issue that is caused from the beginning of the game but is rather hidden for some time until a crc check is done by game internals. Steps to reproduce: 1) Enable Constructron-Continued (any version) 2) Load a fresh multiplayer game 3) /c game.force_crc() -...
