I don't have a problem with the name, but a note in the documentation would be handy. The wiki is nice for being able to add annotations, but the base information is woefully out of date.

While I can appreciate the complexity involved with adding alloys, I feel Bobs suffers from overreach and I would caution you to avoid succumbing to the same design. Vanilla Factorio is primarily about sequential processing. Copper cabling -> Green circuits -> Red Circuits -> Module 1 -> Module 2 ...

Angel's won't start when I try to launch solo. This is the error I get:

How about making it clear that find_logistic_network_by_position() only counts the actual logistic area, and not the construction area. Since logistic networks and construction networks are so tightly bound together in game (only coming from roboports) I mistakenly thought I could use this function ...

To make a mod I'm working on, I need the ability to see if a chunk is visible. This would be super handy.

Alternatively, if I could access radar.prototype.max_distance_of_nearby_sectors_revealed and player.max_distance_of_nearby_sectors_revealed (or whatever it's called) I could figure it out ...

I added that in. Good catch, Nexela!

Prospector updated to 0.7.0. Fixed the bug where Mk 3 drills were returning Mk 2s when mined. Also simulated richness so this mod will emulate the richness setting of the map.

I published a fix for Prospector and Bluebuild. Thanks for the reports.

3. Depleted ore and ore veins have minability, but cannot be mined by hand or machine? Should they not just disappear from the map if they are depleted, like a normal patch of ore? Or can they somehow become undepleted later?

Deleted ore can turn into ore veins, depleted ore veins can turn into ...

Published my Prospector mod. Would be nice if I had some people using ore mods do some testing.

I specifically want to emulate the fast_replace behavior when placing by hand, but allow bots to do it.

Currently I create the ghost, and then check the ghost regularly if a bot is standing on it with the item and then do a create_entity call with {name=ghost.ghost_name, fast_replace=true}, which ...

Example:

roboport.surface.create_entity{name="entity-ghost", position=belts.position, inner_name=p.name, direction = belts.direction, force=roboport.force, fast_replace=true}

Doing this under an existing entity already will summon a bot to try and fulfill the ghost, but the bot never places it ...

Example:
ent is the entity as usual, item is the spill stack created by the fast_replace flag.

Made a huge update to Global Warming. Performance is greatly improved.

I just want to restate that the combat bonuses (increased bullet damage, increased turret damage, etc) should come from increased manufacturing rather than a one time cost. Tier 2+3 gun turrets, tier 2+3 laser turrets, possibly even combat modules to increase range, increase fire rate, or increased ...

Got a publishable version of Belt Upgrader done. Since publishing I worked out a method to simulate fast-replace with bots, allowing putting down an entity without stopping the old one and preserving circuit connections so I need to rewrite a decent chunk of it to use this new method. Oh, and I ...

While trying to create a mod to search and auto-upgrade inserters, I ran into an error with ghosts causing errors. When I try to copy an inserter's pickup/dropoff locations onto a ghost, I get an error.

Here is the specific code:
roboport.surface.create_entity{name="entity-ghost", position ...

Please add mining speed to construction bots.

This means they need to spend mining_time / mining_speed time to deconstruct or cut down trees. And maybe they need to spend the same amount of time placing an object.
Gotta keep those construction bots busy!

@theit8514:

Such a strange bug! Thanks for catching that.
