option to catch all lua runtime errors
Hi, I am working on a mod that will provide a "scripted combinator". That will allow for a player provided lua script to be excuted. I use the lua xpcall() to prevent game crashes but some errors are still handled by the "game itself" (f.e. index out of bounds on signal parameter...

Re: [MOD 0.16] Miniloader
No problem.
I just saw the behavior and wanted to let you know.
I noticed it because I use a lot of miniloader -> chest -> miniloader construction for buffering and belt balancing.

Re: [MOD 0.16] Miniloader
Using the 1.5.7 version.
When placing two miniloaders on distance 1 there is still flow.
Noticed some remarks on underground belts -> I am not using a mod what updates them

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Thanks.
It's indeed the modded chest that is the reason.
Removing that from the blueprints makes 90 degree possible.
PS : I can build vertical modded chests. Does the mod need specific options/code to allow 90 degree ?

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Hi, I made a blueprint for a train unload setup as below. unload.JPG Wanted to use this too when building a "vertical" station. But when placing the blueprint I only can rotate 180 degree. I've seen other blueprints rotating 90 degree. Anyone know what could cause the 180 degree limitation ?

Items in hand
Hi, I'd like to check the number of items of the player. There is the call "get_inventory(defines.inventory.player_main)" that gives access and number of items. But when the player selects items from that, taking it in hand that amount is removed from the inventory. Is there a way to get t...

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Hi, My idea was that the train was stopped in the station. Solved it now by manual add some fuel, after a roundtrip the refuel worked as expected. My assumption now is that the fuel shortage occured second(s) after leaving the station -> It only looks like it is in the station but actually it is not.

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Thanks for the replies.
I've been looking for a mod to be able to create these switches but no luck.
Are you aware of such a mod ?

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Hi,
Am I correct that train switches can only be used with mininmun two "spaces" between the tracks ?
So that, in the picture below, I cannot get switches in the two left track layouts ?

Re: Undergroud belt input/output belt_to_ground_type
Thanks.
Working now. Assuming to quickly. Expected to be able to set all properties of an entity at creation time. Need to read docs more carefully.
Also want to connect two underground belts that I create. Do you know how to achieve that ?

The Mission Control Button is (with me) at the top left of the screen.
With that you get the details of the secondary mess
