Excellent mod! It's definitely keeping me on my toes. A question: Right now, I'm playing With Natural Evolution (all mods), which is making the aliens spread like kudzu all over the map. Does Rampant do that as well? In my next game, I want Rampant's difficulty, but I don't want to insane level of b...

With a train (& any vehicle really), it has a power rating and, under the burner/power source, it has an efficiency value. So, my question is: is the power rating the net/output power (after the efficiency has been applied), or is that the fuel consumption power rate (& the power delivered t...

How do I turn a gif into a sprite sheet? Or, rather, a series of images into a sprite sheet (instead of using Blender and the Python script)?

It's basically just a copy of what you have in your power armor. As a general rule, I only use prototypes as they are available in the base game. If the game allows you to define a prototype to do something, I do it. if it doesn't, I don't. Since there exists a personal roboport to use construction...

Yes, I know that. I've got the vehicular roboports in the vehicle. What I'm wondering is "Can the vehicle use logistic bots in its inventory to distribute other items in its inventory to requestors within range?"

Do the vehicle roboports not service/deploy logistic robots? Only construction?

Does the "effectivity" parameter affect the efficiency of a train's burner (when used in a train entity)?

pictures have to be the right size, else they get cropped. :D Icons = 32x32 px Yeah, that seems to be the source of it, but it's having issues still >_<. So, when I make the icon *.png file 32x32 pixels, the mod crashes on load-up, saying that it's trying to access the 64x64 loc. But, if I make the...

The crafting category is added to recipes and entities (assembly-machines, furnaces) and determines which recipe can be produced in a certain machine. The group type creates an extra tab in the crafting/item menu. The subgroup type creates a row in a certain group. Subgroups can be set to items and...

I've created an icon to use in my mod, but it shows up blank. However, the picture isn't blank (though it does have a transparent background). Even pulling it up in Windows picture viewer shows the picture.

What did I do wrong?

Here's the picture:

I'm creating a mod with a separate crafting category. Is that done with the type = item-group? B/c it's showing up under a category called "unsorted" instead o_O

Yeah. I've read a bit of the code in a different mod. So, with that event, is it possible to, in between the starting to place & the entity being created, to have some code that stops the entity placement (& thus keeps the item in hand)? Yes: https://github.com/Suprcheese/Orbital-Ion-Cannon...

Is there an event that fires whenever a player clicks? Nope, there is no event for this. Or, even better, when a player clicks with a given item in their selection hand? There is, however, an event for this: http://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/events.html#on_put_item Yeah. I've read a bit of the cod...

pawners, worms, and buildings Compared to what? That's pretty much all turrets target now. "turrets that specifically target spawners, worms, and buildings" I think the original meaning was exclusive, i.e. spawners, worms or buildings. A list of entities the turret will attack, so you cou...

Hmm... Adil, what way did you have in mind? I read up on the bomber tutorial, & I think it'll definitely help me. But, is there a command that makes a turret attack a specific entity?

pawners, worms, and buildings Compared to what? That's pretty much all turrets target now. Well, right now, the turrets attack anything that's enemy within their range. When I said the above, I meant as something that would only target those while ignoring bitters, spitters, enemy players, or enemy...

Shameless post to bring it back up to the top of the list so people might see it again.

:/

Is this actually something that's already being included in the .15 update?
