Shutup and take my money! The expansion and 2.0 update are going to be AWESOME. Practically new game!

PRAISES BE! The wire nightmare is over!

I wonder... is it possible to apply the quality filter to tiers? For example, my mod has 5 tiers of walls. If I could remove all the higher tiers and instead reference them in a similar way as quality, it would clean up the logic UI a fair bit. More so for larger mods that are chalk FULL of tiered e...

Super stocked for the expansion! Let me buy it already, WUBE!

connect_neighbour also connects two devices. And in case there's confusion, I'm not talking about connections between walls, I'm talking about if you have a wire from a wall/gate to the network for reading or controlling gate state. Edit: See attached image Ah yeah I was reading that as the connect...

I'm trying to maintain wall/gate connections in my mod, but using connect_neighbour doesn't seem to be working. Is there something special I have to do for walls/gates? connect_neighbor says it's for electric/circuit wires. Pretty sure for walls the game automatically makes the connections they can...

You should not hard-code the surface number. Get the surface (and the force) from the entity you want to replace. To prevent LuaEntity not valid error, test entity.valid before accessing any of its properties. Found out that the issue was that I was deleting the entity after checking if it was vali...

A user posted about a bug their encountering in my mod, and after some digging, it seems the issue lies with game.surfaces[1].create_entity{name, position, direction, force} If I leave the surface index as 1, then no entity is created*. If I set the index as 2, then an entity is created, but seeming...

Recently tried Satisfactory and realized again how most other factory simulations (sadly) are a essentially dumbed down* version of factorios system (intended or not). Other games force me to repeat the same one-belt+splitter solution over and over again. Factorios addition of a second belt lane an...

I've recently re-colored the vanilla wall/gate images to get my mod more up-to-date looking, but I'd still very much appreciate it if someone found the time to grace this mod with custom images, especially since Factorio has released.

I could, but... that seems to me to be a bit of a cop-out.

Seems I mislabeled an update, so version 0.9.4 may never have shown up for people. Any way, new version is out. I'm thinking of adding in my own science pack to put more of a strain on the dropped biomass, but I'm kind of on the fence about it. On the one hand, it would go a long way toward resolvin...

Hi all, in my mod - Alien Walls - players can complete research to increase the health of the mods walls. As it is, I only have a few levels of research and a script that auto-generates entities for the related research levels. But I've gotten a few requests to implement infinite research, and I hav...

Your struggle with motivation and programming out of guilt rather than joy or excitement is a struggle I am currently going through. I started a game project back around 2013 or 2014 and have been working on it mostly solo. Currently, I haven't done any serious work on it since...some time last year...

What if we need to... you know... test if things are multiplayer safe? Or if you're testing a mod that requires another mod? Like an add-on to Bob's or Angels Then you enable those mods too? the *debugger* is the one running in instrument mode. I'm confused, then ...a special mode which allows a se...

As far as I know the game difficulty always reads "normal" (was confused by that when I first played). Deathworld etc just set game settings. You could look for a default deathworld if the settings match exactly, or better, just scale whatever you're doing to what you think makes the game...

Hey all, I'm wondering if there is a way to check if the game is set to Deathworld, or how I might be able to have my mod might be adjusted by Deathworld.

Thanks!

When you are not teleported to the dugneon and have to actually travel there, it keeps the immersion of the game, the world is there to be explored, not just an arcade where you push and play. Can you please make the detailed radar view in the normal game way worse than it is now? We have the map. ...
