This isn't working for me. I've tried placing both passive and active provider carriages but I don't see the actual entity (Small selection box) to interact with it. Nothing actually happens though till I start moving the train whereupon I get this error: control.lua : 523 LuaEntity API call when L...

I really enjoy your SmartTrain mod btw, seems pretty stable now so perhaps you should move it out of WIP so it gets more exposure? Thanks for the tip about robots, I forgot to put it in in this version so I'll add it in the next couple of days when I add some form of graphics. I'd love to move it o...

I guess that one could make it easier in the main game

Fair enough. It's not perfect since the way items stack etc in the game but I've added that as a metaitem to the rail sensors.

I thought that this can no longer happen in the newest versions, but I was probably wrong. Is there anything special you were doing on the rail? You can remove it manually using the console, for example something like this (when you are player 2 and have it selected) /c game.players[2].selected.des...

I see some similarities to this https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8446 I saw, that Factorio is opening three windows, one with full white, as above, one with full black and the full screen game window. Maybe it's just that, we cannot get focus to the game window, cause the o...

Havent tried it, but i need to compliment the code too, might use parts of it once i get to refactorioing (pun intended :D ) SmartTrains For robots you should only need to register the onrobotbuiltentity and onrobotpremined events, so the proxys get added/removed Feel free! The important part is th...

Hi there :) I'm not sure about the "speed item". Inserters can (currently) only react to one item so it would have to be either the desired item or the speed item which to me does not offer much. Then it would be better to have two separate rails, one that detects only on standing trains/...

I gave it a quick test before hopping to bed :) It detected the train passing over it, sent the signal over the red wire to a remote smart inserter which was told to transfer items from one box into another if more than 1 wood (the fuel) is detected. And the second the locomotive drove over the rai...

Hello everybody. The forum's search function did not give me results to my question if this mod request has already been stated so I go on and ask. ;) How about some kind of "Smart Rails". They are able to sense what is inside (a standing) cargo wagon and give this information to the red/...

This mod is supposed to add a couple of more sensors for the network, but at the moment it only adds a sensor for rails. Sensors Rail sensor Note: These are enabled by default for now, will add research at a later stage. Graphics are only placeholders for now. Rail sensors works by placing a new str...

dee- wrote:So I think my mod request is still valid

I largely agree. I've been thinking of doing some sensor packs so I toyed around with this and have it working as a prototype. I'll put it in the WIP section in a couple of hours. This would probably be a stop-gap until 0.12 but as that it's fine.

Further to this, starting Factorio in windowed mode does not have any of these problem which makes me think that it's related to the ordering of the fullscreen outlet.

would it be possible to add a charging wagon? or maybe a charging pad that can charge a large group of robots insted of just for...and i know theirs another mod but they only allow four robots as well....it would be nice to be able to have active provider wagons and have the robots unload the train...

Sure. The accumulator blender files can be found here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5wuQoB1aV_Sd3FsaFBubFBocFE&usp=sharing There is also a fantastic looking provider wagon that Koli did burred in this thread here: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=3926&s...

This mod adds four new train wagons which will act like the four logistics chests. The look of these four new wagons are significantly different from the base wagon to not mistake them and they are colour coded in the same way as the logistics chests. http://i.imgur.com/DY9rxBD.png http://i.imgur.co...

This mod seems to break saving in 0.11.15 for now. See kovarex note about it here. Apparently fixed in .16 whenever that will be released.

However, I get a crash on loading the game, with the following log: 33536.417519 Info Logger.cpp:149: 2015-01-30 23:40:55; Factorio 0.11.13 (Build 13133, linux64) 33536.417601 Info Logger.cpp:153: Operating system: Linux 33536.417626 Info Paths.cpp:202: Read data path: /home/mnorman/factorio/data 3...

When starting Factorio the application sometimes freezes ( i.e. beachballs ). This seems to happen around half of the time and then there is nothing to do than force quit and restart Factorio and hope for better luck. As far as I can tell, the only errors that show up are the following: 2015-02-04 1...

When you want to discontinue the mod, would you mind if I took over? I would love to use the wagons provided by the mod in 0.11.x, maybe even add some by my own. You of course would be credited as the original creator of the mod. Everything is MIT licensed and you are welcome to take any/all of it ...
