Unrelated, but which loader mod is that? (looks really cool, wanting to grab)

that looks like AAI Loaders

tbh the only way I can see a "3D" Factorio work is identical to how Anno games are "3D". Actual 3D models and an orbiting camera but everything is still built on a (flat) plane.

you could try the method described here to recover your blueprints: 94427

when an entity has a square collision box rotation effectively is just a variation but if its not a square and the collision box also needs to adapt that would then be a rotation right? ignoring other things that would need to also adapt like potential fluidboxes, wire connection points, ...

I can't say with any certainty that the whole new soundtrack is gonna be out of place, but from the samples provided I don't really feel it's fitting the classic Factorio vibe. To me, Factorio soundtrack always associated with machinery, with whirrs and clanks and electrical buzzes, with guttural r...

It would be useful to record the mods of the entities, items, recipes, and tiles inside the blueprint . In addition to the benefits above, I'd be able to support search for blueprints without a specific mod. As part of my project to render modded blueprints I made Blueprint Meta Info . It adds used...

Both Gitlab & GitHub provide full control of the bug item, except that it can't be deleted. And it's very common when the ticket author changes the title and there's no shame in doing so. This works because changing the title produces a clear message in that thread about the title changing from...

Document that EntityPrototype.remove_decoratives coerces the boolean values true / false to "true" / "false" respectively. Additionally since apparently a lot of these coercion cases have been removed in 1.2/2.0/younameit removing this case aswell might be good. Alternatively cha...

Another wiki that has to handle several DLCs is the Hollow Knight wiki.
It also uses prefixed icons to do so (but also has separate sections for DLC specific groupings sometimes).
See the pages about enemies and bosses for example.

The icon_size property on IconData should be marked optional since it is not always required (as mentioned in its description)

Will this only be fixed for 1.1.102 and onwards or retroactively changed for previous versions aswell?

The companion mod, Recipe Exporter, provides the recipe data. I guess this didn't exist 2 years ago yet but now you can use the --dump-data CLI arg to get factorio to dump the entire data.raw table as a JSON file ( with some quirks ) and use that to get recipes, items, etc instead of a custom compa...

I guess you'll have to wait for 2.0 to get logistic groups

as a general note the docs state that

If a member would be null, it is omitted from the JSON instead.

but currently there are 6 cases of nulls in the JSON. All of them caused by an empty image caption.

The documentation for the machine readable prototype doc format specifies that the instance_limit for prototypes is a number but in the actual json it is a string of a number.

Those look pretty neat. I love the idea of visualizing the BPs in a more abstract manner!

I've been working on my own BP renderer for a while now and this seems like something that could be added as another misc blueprint tool next to a bunch of others.

Really nice job.

Alright this has been solved after taking a look at how FBSR does this and with some help from the mod-making channel on discord . First of all one thing I didn't knew before is that rolling-stocks (or vehicles in general maybe?) don't directly use the orientation to get the corresponding sprite but...

To be fair HDR for PCs is still just in a very very messy state. When I was still using Windows I tried to enable HDR multiple times over the years but all the SDR content always looked immediately way worse and lots of games don't implement HDR well at all too. Additionally taking any screenshots o...

At least for 2.0 we will need this.

I asked about it on discord a month ago and the answer was "sure" so it seems very likely this will be a thing

How are the positions for the wheels of a rolling-stock determined? My current implementation uses the joint_distance and then rotates that according to the orientation of the entity but I seem to be missing some vertical offset (and the horizontal offset also seems to not fit perfectly). let offset...
