Error ab_logisticscenter_0.18.9

[kots01]

All PY mods and 'ab-logistics-center-rc-logistic-slots-count' = 12. Yes, the recommended value is not more than 5, but with PY mods it will not work without it. The mod worked stably for about 70 hours. Thanks for the cool mod, and I'm sorry if something is not clear I write with the help of a translator

[ABackerNINI]

This will happen when you put more than 500 kinds of items into the center. You can set 'ab-logistics-center-lc-item-slot-count' to 2000, default is 500.

[kots01]

Thanks so much for the quick reply.

[kots01]

Another question in PY mods is about 1000 names of plants, ores, assemblers and other items. Regulate restrictions on reception and storage in the logistics center of each item for quite some time. Is it possible in the future to make automatic settings for the limit of items that will be stored in the logistics center? Set up by subgroups. For example, assemblers and other industrial buildings = 10, ores = 1000-5000, metals 2000-5000 and so on.

[ABackerNINI]

Yes, it sounds possible and it's a pretty good idea. ^_^

[kots01]

And one more question. Is it possible to add several types of warehouses with large capacities, for example like these in 150 and 800?

[ABackerNINI]

Do you mean 33 or 66 requester/collector chests with large capacity of 150/800?

[kots01]

When using rail transportation, a large warehouse with 800 capacity is used as a request. From it it is possible to send 6-12 or 18 transport belts and it is convenient for PY mods. Medium warehouse 150 capacity is mainly used as a provider. I could be wrong, but similar in size warehouses are in the mods of bob and angel. There is also a proposal to make barrels for teleporting liquids into them, the vanilla value of 50 for one barrel seems small enough, maybe 500-1000 will be just right. Barrel and storage recipes can be made more expensive.

[ABackerNINI]

It's possible but there is one problem, it's hard to find the proper images for those 33/66 size chests, since I'm not good at PS.
Please send me if you find ones, thanks.

[kots01]

The first two pictures are made by me, the third picture for comparison is taken from your mod. If you liked one of them, I can do something similar either in different colors as 1 or in the same color as 2. As for the warehouse, it will be more difficult, I have no such experience yet. I'll see if I can find something.

[ABackerNINI]

They look very nice! Actually all images of this mod are copied from other mods (I have declared that in the mod). I'll really appreciate if you'd like to make them look different. I want to try the first one. ლ(⌒▽⌒ლ)

There are several requirements of the picture: The pic should be png format, transparent. Size of each one is 113*91, it's OK if there are slightly different, but keep them the same. The shadow.

It shouldn't need to change the code if you keep their size as 113*91, just unzip the mod, replace the pic and start the game.
Edit the code if you change their size, /prototypes/logistics-center.lua line 6/7.

Thanks, ٩(◕‿◕｡)۶

[kots01]

Yes, now I looked at the values ​​of the picture of the laboratory 98 * 87. I think it will be easier for me to edit two lines of your code and leave the vanilla sizes. Is it possible to increase the number of rows in the picture? (3 * 11 vanilla) for example to make 6 * 11 or 3 * 22? Thus add a palette of shades. frame_count = 33, line_length = 11, animation_speed = 1 / 3?. Another question. There is an LTN mod and it has an interesting parameter, request priority and supply priority, if I have two or more requests of one item, it becomes possible to choose which request will be served with high priority. Sometimes this can be useful when distributing expensive items, but I don’t know how much this can complicate the teleportation mode.

[ABackerNINI]

Emmmm, you also need to change the code logistics-center-animation.lua line 22/23/25/26. Any number of rows should be ok. frame_count means the total number of small pics. line_length means columns of each row in the picture.

It seems difficult to implement request/supply priority, but it's possible. I'll think about it later.

[kots01]

Ready preliminary version of the pictures.

ab_logisticscenter_0.18.9.zip

Made adjustments in the code according to your recommendations, and also slowed down the animation speed to 1/9. The picture now has 9 * 11 instead of 3 * 11. There are rows with smooth transitions of shades and there are sharp transitions immediately to a different color. The last two rows are vanilla for comparison. Choose which style you like best, which shades it is better to leave, and which to remove.

Tell me, is it possible without damaging saves to increase the size of the logistics center? Maybe this way the animation will be more noticeable.

[ABackerNINI]

• It looks really nice! There is one small problem, it moves slightly, check the following video.

• Factorio 0.18.34 record.zip

• Size of the logistics center? Do you mean selection and collision box size? /prototypes/logistics-center.lua line 6/7 defines its selection and collision box size. And changing it should not damage the save, but may need a little adjustments of the code.

[kots01]

If you are talking about animation speed, I reduced it from 1/5 to 1/9 to see the difference. It can be returned as it was

Yes, if you can increase the size of the logistics center as in the picture on the left (or maybe a little more).

I will try to add a few more rows of shades for a change.
