There will be support for the space age version?

No clue what needs to be done to update it 😄 using my own limited time to play vanilla for now!
There's also the new Display Panel in Space Age https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-419 which seems like a good replacement even tho they are smaller. Maybe a new version of the mod could base the plates of this entity instead

I got some progress with this. My version loads without errors, but the icons still won't display.
I will post my progress on OneDrive: https://onedrive.live.com/?id=01162D1530F5D466%2126295&cid=01162D1530F5D466

I can get the icons to display but I'm a complete noob when it comes to actually fixing anything else.
I just need to fix the GUI not loading the existing info and I need to fix the item display not being destroyed

Would be a huge help if Flydiverny you could just find some time to update this? The new display panels in space age are not useful for anything imo..
:(

EDIT: Scratch that! I think I have fixed it for 2.0. I will create PR once I've poked at it with a couple sticks to check its all fine

any news?

I've created the pull request to have it updated to 2.0 but I'm guessing Flydiverny is busy with life because the PR was made 2 weeks ago..

Hmm, didn't see the notification for the PR. I'll find some time to have a look at it, but yes life is a bit busy with a 1 yr old nowadays 😄 and my "luck" lately has hopefully peaked after this weekends adventure in the ER and unexpected operation 😅

Hey i just want to thank you for such an essential mod. I know you're busy, but if you ever get a chance to update this mod I would really appreciate it so I can keep building things like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/1d2e2ee/new_seablock_mall_almost_700_assembly_machines/

I'll give it another week before I re-up Display Plates with my fork that works with 2.0.

Flydiverny seems to be busy but it's been months now and while there are other mods that make the vanilla display bigger, there don't appear to be any flat displays like these.

Hi, I'm just dropping another note to say thank you to the original mod authors and those who are updating it. I agree that the new panels aren't as good as these. I like to use the twemoji mod to put silly signs and stuff around the base :) Will keep an eye out for Kingfisher or Flydiverny's 2.0 plates to be released.
