Proposal

Splitters allowing multiple item filters at once.

Use Case

This would be useful for splitting sushi into separate sushi belts, especially in cases like Fulgora, space, or quality setups.



It seems doable, but may be challenging to do performantly. Just putting it out there. Note ...

Specifically for splitters. This would be useful on Gleba to divert items that should be taken out of circulation instead of crafting with them.

This feels like a niche edge case, but the spirit of Bilka compels me to report it.

The Bug

In an on_built_entity event callback: if entity.direction == defines.direction.west then entity.rotate{by_player=player_index} end
Boot up a new sandbox save. Cheats on.
Put a stack of belts AND the ...

Sorry, but I have no idea how to reproduce this error reliably. This is like the 4th time this happens to me since May. So it isn't a total anomaly, but it is very sporadic.

I only ever noticed this being an issue when I started modding, and having VScode open with mod files (and I was not writing ...

I was working on my mod development. When I booted up factorio, during data stage, my whole screen straight up froze, l then turned black. I had a youtube music video in the background, and it kept making sound for several minutes until it finished while everything was black. Factorio music does not ...

Space casinos are a good addition to the game because it reduces the number of duplicate washing setups you make across the run. If you think banning space casinos is going to make people switch to complex upcycling of iron or Fulgoran scrap, you are extremely mistaken. The meta is going to be ...

I’m still feeling side effects from workarounds to this bug. I’d like to link the accidental duplicate bug report that I made for this: viewtopic.php?p=674604#p674604

I hope the alternate account for the reproduction (with videos) helps find a solution.

The Problem
In Space Age, any resource gathered from AgricultureTower gets really screwed relative to resources that are mined due to ballistically high mining productivity.

Example: On Gleba, you need 20 chunks of farm for a stacked green belt of fruit, and that needs to compete with a single ...

I have. The issue is that they are fairly complex OR behind functions of functions of functions of functions across files. I just don't understand the process by looking at the finished product. Maybe I'm just bad, but I have no idea how this places rocks:
autoplace =

control = "rocks",
order ...

One thing that has always sucked for me is figuring out map generation. The documentation currently explains how each variable works, and how you're supposed to put things in (https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/types/NoiseExpression.html). The thing I really struggled with was:

"How do I compose ...

LuaEquipmentGrid.shield (and also max_shield)

Currently says:
The amount of shields this equipment grid has.

Should say:

The Bug

1) Make a save file.
2) Place legendary quality entities
3) Save and Close game
4) Change that entity's prototype type to a new type.
Example (execute in data-final-fixes.lua):
local recycler = data.raw.furnace["recycler"]
recycler.type = "assembling-machine"
data:extend({recycler})
data ...

The Problem

SolarPanelPrototype is great for entities spammed in bulk for power generation, but it currently only supports pictures. Animations are not supported.

Current Workarounds Don’t Work

1) Tying LuaRender to an SolarPanelPrototype does not work. If the solar panel is invisible, then ...

Thanks. If nothing else, I hope this information helps the devs track down the condition that causes this save corruption.

Given the state of this save file i suspect the electric networks that were orphaned were originally owned by the "trashsteroids" on the planet Rubia since they are implemented as vehicles with equipment grid that has shield equipment inside and i see there is a lot of those entities destroyed. I ...

The Reproduction and Bug

1) Listen to an on_built_entity event with the following in a control.lua:

script.on_event(defines.events.on_built_entity, function(event)
local player_index = event.player_index
game.print("Before: " .. tostring(game.players[player_index].undo_redo_stack.get_undo ...

Good point. This is really handy for anything spage-related.

There are many mods that want to use spage assets without relying on spage, which then requires feature flags + duplicating assets.

It would be cleaner to tell factorio: “Please make spage files available for me to draw from, regardless ...

Context

Sometimes, when modding, I would like to depend on X mod to have factorio use that mod’s assets or libraries. However:
1) Some mods are stuck in 1.1
2) Many mods normally come with code that I don’t want executed. Data stage stuff can be reverted (with great effort) while many things can ...
