Do they show even if they have hidden set to true? Sounds like they should not be displayed there when hidden.
But a manual override would be nice too


Yes, they show up when hidden is set to true. I'd originally expected that anything that's 'hidden' overall would be hidden in the bonuses GUI ...

Hidden recipes and entities still show up in the bonus GUI.

This mod uses altered, hidden versions of existing recipes and entities (with automatic switching) to mimic a module effect for a custom module type. It would be helpful to have an option to hide these ...

This sounds to me like: if a mod references a fluid that doesn't exist, but an item of the same name does exist, the error message doesn't explain it. So for example, if you add a recipe ingredient with type = "fluid", name = " iron-plate" you'll get a confusing error message.

Added Prototype::custom_tooltip_fields.

This is amazing!

In the prototype docs for CustomTooltipField it has the property order. Is there a reference for what the order values are for vanilla tooltip fields?

Wow, this works! I'm continually blown away by Factorio's mod support. Thanks!

Make the functionality of ReactorProtype's connection_patches_connected , connection_patches_disconnected , heat_connection_patches_connected , and heat_connection_patches_disconnected available to HeatEnergySource.

When using a HeatEnergySource, it's very difficult to make the heat connections ...

You could set entity.operable to false, and restore it to true on the next tick

Unfortunately this doesn't work; the extra module is just getting dropped in during the next tick. At 60 ticks/s, the number of ticks during which the "Z" key is down from a single press is enough to fill any machine ...

I'm working on a custom module-type mod that (for implementation reasons) sometimes requires swapping out a crafting machine with a tweaked version of itself when one of the modded modules is added/removed from it. This can actually be achieved almost perfectly with the built in LuaSurface#create ...

From the 2.0.58 release notes:

Added the "mod-data" prototype type.

This pretty much fulfills the request, right?

Yeah, I think making uranium ammo on platforms too easy would be the biggest risk. It'd still require making red ammo in-situ though. Maybe I should make a mod and try it out!

Atomic bombs I think would actually be more of a challenge, due to the higher up-front cost. It would require off-Nauvis ...

TL;DR
Increase the rocket capacity of U238 (but not other uranium items)


What?
The current rocket capacity for U238 and U235 is 20, for uranium ore is 200, for uranium fuel cells and nuclear fuel is 10, and for various uranium ammos is 25. (Atomic bombs cannot be flown on rockets). These ...

Maybe this sounds crazy, but I want more and/or bigger pentapod attacks while I'm present on Gleba. The main reason is that when I built my first Gleba base, pentapods didn't become a real threat until after I'd left, so my entire base was designed with no experience of pentapod defense. This made ...

My original thought was that I wanted a piece of equipment that could go in the tank's grid to give it a little bit of vision, so that I could remotely drive the tank outside of my radar range. To make it useful for power armor and spidertrons, it can also increase total vision range (and maybe +1 ...
