Hello,
I just noticed that there is no walking sound on one of the hazard concrete orientations. See here:

Combinators haven't changed so it should still work the same. You can import the bluepint strings to 0.15 using the foreman mod.

Version 0.2.5

• Fixed distribution to factorissimo 2 helper entities
  Added ignored entities mod setting

these friendly biters sometimes wonder your entire base and are a little disruptive... If by disruptive you mean that they get stuck on belts and are annoying you can make biters "collide" with belts by adding "floor-layer" to their collision mask: collision_mask = { "objec...

Now, I could add some event when a ghost is about to be deleted as a result of being selected by the deconstruction planner but it wouldn't go in the on-deconstruction-ordered event. The main problem is figuring out what to name the event... That would be perfect. What I originally wanted in my mod...

But the is on_preplayer_mined_item is fired when a player destroys a ghost by right clicking it. It is not fired when selecting a ghost with deconstruction planner which is inconsistent.

So two things: 1. When an entity is deconstructed by script with LuaEntity.order_deconstruction the event on_marked_for_deconstruction is not triggered even though the documentation says it is. 2. When a player mines an entity-ghost the on_preplayer_mined_item event is triggered. This is not the cas...

First, the smoke entity will be destroyed after the specified duration. This is why I set the duration to be very large. 99999999 ticks is almost 20 days of pure game time, so the smoke will essentially last forever. Set it higher if you want. I think the maxmimum is 2^31 (414 days). its animation ...

When you place a ghost (of any entity) and teleport it via commands the selection box and collision box will stay at the old position but the robots will fly to the new position. Once they revive the ghost (at the new position) it will appear at it's old position. How to reproduce: Place a roboport ...

For entity type "entity-ghost" where inner entity is of type "programmable-speaker":
LuaEntity.parameters :: ProgrammableSpeakerParameters [R]
LuaEntity.alert_parameters :: ProgrammableSpeakerAlertParameters [R]

What is the purpose of:

• LuaCustomChartTag.orientation
• LuaCustomChartTag.target

I tried setting them to different values but they don't seem to do anything?

It looks like you just need an anmated entity without any collision box so I can suggest you use "smoke". It can have an animation, multiple sprite layers (for shadow), customizable render layer and is mostly for visuals only. Although you would probably need to teleport the rotor to the h...

You wrote copper_ore instead of copper-ore and you forgot to specify the shift value. So the command should look more like this: game.create_surface("Custom", { terrain_segmentation = "none", water = "none", autoplace_controls = { ["copper-ore"] = { frequency ...

It is called energy in the api. See here: http://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/LuaR ... ipe.energy
But note that the actual time taken to craft a recipe in seconds depends on the crafting speed of the machine.

Have the global table contain some kind of cache for every player. In on_preplayer_mined_item store the event tick in the cache of the player who did the mining. Then in on_built_entity if the tick equals the saved tick in the cache of the player a fast replace was done. A single player can't pick ...

Add this to your prototype: localised_name = {"", {"item-name.rocket-fuel"}, " 2"}, Works similarly with localised_description. Localised strings are a table with the key as the first element. Keys are always written like "SECTION.ITEMNAME" where section is th...

You cannot use animation as a parameter for combat drones. You have to use idle and in_motion which are animations for the two different states. (not moving and moving) It has to look like this: (taken from defender drone prototype) idle = { layers = { { filename = "__base__/graphics/entity/def...

It worked! Thanks for the quick reply!

I'm trying to make a little color picker for my title bar but I cannot get the spacing on the color buttons right. Here is what it looks like right now: http://i.imgur.com/fxUhrrT.png As you can see the spacing between the colored buttons is a bit too wide so the surrounding frame doesn't fit in the...

Awesome thanks! Any ETA on 0.15.20? There is no point in doing any other methods of blueprint modification when I know that it's going to be a lot easier.
