[MOD 0.14.x] Personal Teleporter

[WhatheWorld]

hi mods works

but whenever i place a belt or anything i get a "notice sound" and a message "here 7" in the bottom left corner

why is that?

Had to turn off 36 mods 1 by 1 to figure out it was this one

O well off for now until next update

I will push an update tonight.

Not sure why. I put the zip file into the mods folder and have confirmed its the latest version.

I just added a version 0.1.3 see if that fixed the problem.

No it has not fixed it. I have checked to make sure its not some conflict with other mods also.
Well I understand why now at least. Its picking up that defines on line 22 is a unknown value.

when is it happening when you first make a game or when you add this mod to an existing game.

It is singleplayer and happens whenever I want to make a new game. It is a fresh install and everything is fully updated.

Are you using .12 or .13 version of factorio.

Sorry for the late reply. I am using .12.35 of factorio. Sorry, should've mentioned this earlier. So, now finally looking at that, scratch this because it is my own fault for not double-checking versions. I am sorry for using your time.

[WhatheWorld]

Sorry I did not label it better.

I have a suggestion for this mod: Instead of using a maximum distance, as proposed in the voting, could you limit teleportation to beacons in the same logistic network as the players position?
That way you wouldn't be able to teleport from a distant war zone back to the safety of your base, which is one of the things that makes this mod a little OP. Also you could only teleport to a distant ore outpost if you have the same logistic network there as in your base. The Roboports would act as a kind of "teleporting-relays", which seems very reasonable to me. Maybe you could add an option to enable/disable this limitation, for the people who like the way it works right now better.

That effectively ruins the whole point of the mod.
-1
Though i would love a config to limit the range.

Thank you for the suggestion so much!! but the short answer is no.

the Long answer. I have not touched the logistic network yet in modding and really dont want to. also I dont think it is too OP since it cost a small fortune to craft. but if you have suggestions on how to change the recipe to make it less OP I would love to here them.

The most recent version crashes:

control.lua:111 guiTelSettings is nil
in the on_gui_click event handler. I had loaded an existing save and had not built any new teleporters since the last update.

I "fixed" this by adding initializeVaiables() right before that line and it seems to work.

Found the Problem will be pushing an update in a few minutes.
