I can't update mods on https://mods.factorio.com
Is this a temporary issue?

TL;DR Add expire time for items on ground to despawn them. What ? Add expire_time for "item-on-ground" https://wiki.factorio.com/Prototype/ItemEntity I don't want to affect items on belts etc though. Why ? Some mods add so much loot that players don't pick them up. It piles up more and mo...

I tried it again on 1.1.37 and it seems works fine except script.get_event_filter shows nil

Yes, events works fine, but I don't see/notice any filters and their effects

First off, I don't know understand where it should be. I ask this because I don't get any results except via console.

Is there any news?

Is this okay and safe to use register_on_entity_destroyed with "text" entity instead of on_nth_tick in some cases? Although, it can be too "dirty"... For instance: a script would change 3 times certain UIs/entities after each ~180 Nth tick or even change it after ~180, 480, 3600 ...

Oh, thank you.

https://lua-api.factorio.com/1.1.30/events.html#on_runtime_mod_setting_changed wrote: player_index :: uint (optional): The player who changed the setting or nil if changed by script.

I don't notice a way to change a setting in events by scripts.

So, probably, nothing will be here for a long time. Although , I got an idea and found a target for experiments. There's a game called as " Node Wizardry " and I like customization a lot. If I'll be still inspired and productive, perhaps, I'll make a similar and simpler realization of the ...

... you seem to already understand the topic quite well. ... Nope, I'm still wandering around, and I feel like I'm not familiar with similar situations fully and other variants of solutions. It's monotonous to guess where I can find examples and only a few people make such things. Probably, it's to...

Perhaps something like this would work in your case as well? Yes It may seem that I'm beating around the bush, however, what if a mod use such a way globally rather than for concrete cases? And, perhaps, something can be implemented to organize such concept better... Also, about settings. If a mod ...

Um, I seem to have confused people. "Another" example, a mod has settings.lua, settings-final-fixes.lua, data.lua, control.lua and... cross_data.lua And I'll just put in the cross_data.lua a table with keys as names like this: return { setting_name1 = {is_important = true}, -- and other da...

There's a mod and I want to separate its functionality on ~2 mods with mod event compatibility. However, I noticed that they can be both optional to each other actually. So, it doesn't matter where the events will be between the 2 mods, because it's either breaks compatibility of mod events or makes...

As far as I know, LuaRemote exists only in the control stage (once you're in a newly created or loaded game). It's possible to make some things before loaded game: gist But it seems you're interested in tracking changes during the data stage -- is that correct? No, not really. Imagine you have [con...

I want to find/see who and how uses data linking between stages/layers in Factorio. (Currently, I'm not interested in LuaRemote)
I know a few cases of it and I don't seem to notice other uses...

The mod will always call one of those 3, and for your case, you can use on_load to resetup the conditional event handlers Aha, It simplifies a lot. And, apparently, I "erased" my memory of it before. Dynamically registering and unregistering events is a dangerous game, and I do not know o...

I want to know more about the state of a mod before any call of defined.events in order to sync variables/events. on_init, on_load, on_configuration_changed from LuaBootstrap works if the mod isn't registered to the save file yet, or it's another version of the mod. However, in other cases, I don't ...

Shortly, you can extend/simplify circuit network using mods like MicroController , fCPU , FactorioScript , Moon Logic etc Examples of usage: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=85141 And, I pondered, do you want yet another fast programmable microcontroller mod? I guess all of those ...
