Error in assignID

[metzyn]

I'm making a mod that adds new solar panels to the game. I'm running into this error upon starting up Factorio:

Code: Select all

Error in assignID, 'new-solar-panel' was not recognized id of item

What do I need to avoid this error?

Hello,

You are missing definition of item called new-solar-panel.

The result in minable properties in entity definition specifies name of the item you get when you mine the entity.

That did it! Thank you!

Now... where can I find a way to modify the power output?

Now... where can I find a way to modify the power output?

That would be the "production = 1" line in the entities definition, though I did not see this line on the steam engine it could be that the devs have hard coded the steam-engines power production

note that the solar panel ingame shows output == 60, thus 1 == 60 and 10 == 600. Perhaps this is the production per tick and ingame shows the production per second...

Sweet, thanks!

Exactly.
