So to repeat the earlier problem statement:
I would like to be able to share my team's charting with another team, but also I do not want to allow the other team to be able to interact with my logistics or mess up my requests or rotate some inserter.
Basically the request is the disconnect `share ...

Re: Disconnect multiplayer cursors from friendship status
ok you're right that remote view normally requires radar coverage, but I dug into why players can see everything in my current Platformer run. And found the answer: god controller mode.

Re: Disconnect multiplayer cursors from friendship status
My mod creates separate forces for players, each with their own surface. Players can navigate to other surfaces via GPS tags printed in chat. Remote view opens on the foreign surface, no radar coverage needed, no friendship set.
So the premise that "players can only view areas with radar coverage ...

Disconnect multiplayer cursors from friendship status
Need an API to allow seeing multiplayer cursors even when other forces are not your friends.
I am actively working on a mod called Solo-Teams (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/solo-teams) that facilitates multiplayer mode.

Expose logistic networks per force without spatial queries
Currently there's no way to retrieve all logistic networks belonging to a force.
The existing API offers spatial queries like LuaSurface.find_logistic_networks_by_construction_area() and LuaSurface.find_logistic_network_by_position() , but nothing that maps forces to their networks directly ...

Re: [2.0.23] share_chart does not work if set_friend is false
There is no way to let enemies share charting and as far as I can tell it has never existed. In 1.1 share_chart would never share with non-friend forces.
Appreciate your response, but the issue exists nonetheless. Is there anything you guys can do to help with the problem statement?

Re: [2.0.23] share_chart does not work if set_friend is false
Thanks for the report however this is unchanged. share_chart is a boolean on a given force where it will share its charting with all friendly forces. It is not a list of forces it will share with: that is determined by who is a friend of the force.
@Rseding91, So you are saying there is no way ...

Re: Mods/scenarios with multiple forces broken
Hello, I'm unable to reproduce it. Enemy forces can't alter each other's entities in remote view. This is likely a mod error. If you still think it's a bug in the engine, please share the save file.
Hmm, okay. Yes sorry it turned out a false alarm.
The mod owner just messaged me that it could ...

Re: Mods/scenarios with multiple forces broken
Do you have some examples where it isn’t working correctly?
I have uploaded a video showing the bug. You can check it out yourself on the same server that I got on.
But it requires 2.0.9.
Also you will have to join any team to get out of the new player staging area.

Hello,
One the the very popular PvPish mod called OARC is simply broken due to the remote view capabilities of 2.0.
So players of one force can simply change recipes or inserter filters of another force remotely.
This is completely game breaking and also allows griefing from someone not belonging to ...

Re: [1.1.85] Icon dump truncates names with `:`
Thanks for the report. There are a few options here but the easiest one is for mods to not use that character in prototype names if they want to work with icon dumping. Windows does not allow you to create a file with the ":" character in the filename. The underlying filesystem might 'accept' it ...

The "Mega Cities" / "Trade Cities" server abuses reset API
Dear devs,
I would like to report an issue which is kinda in the grey area. Devs probably doesn't care about it, but it puts a sour taste in my experience of multiplayer lobby.
There is this server that goes by "Mega Cities" or sometimes as "Trade Cities". It abuses the `reset_time_played` API to ...

Splitter filter and input priority
Currently if you have a Splitter with a filter set, and then if you change the input priority to left or right, the filter gets reset.
Filter and Input priorities should be separate things, and should not override each other.

There are a few pain points related to Assemblers in current Factorio version.
