Freight Forwarding


A small overhaul with a focus on long-distance logistics variety. Transport containerized items across land and sea using trains and ships! First, venture to the edge of your starting island using trains to find lead, then set sail for offshore oil using tanker ships, dredge metallic nodules from the seabed, and recover titanium from other islands. Finally you'll be transporting materials to faraway lava pools to smelt titansteel, an essential ingredient in rocket parts.

b [Resolved] Failed to load mod

Trying to launch factorio 1.1.87 with freight forwarding 1.7.2, getting an "Error loading mods" window popping up. The error message says:

Failed to load mods: FreightForwarding/prototypes/tips-and-tricks.lua:202attempt to index local 'ships_tip' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
FreightForwarding/prototypes/tips-and-tricks.lua:202:in main chunk
[C]:in function 'require'
FreightForwarding/data.lua:23:in main chunk

This originally happened with trying to use the freight forwarding pack, then I tried just using freight forwarding and still got this issue. Also my apologies if I made a typo in the error message, I couldn't copy paste it or attach a screenshot.

Make sure all the mods are up to date (specifically Cargo Ships)

Got it working! I guess I had an old version of cargo ships downloaded so it was trying to use that. Thanks! Looking forward to playing freight forwarding :)
