b [Bug][Minor] Incompatibility with Factorissimo2

7 years ago

Just a heads up that flying over a Factorissimo2 factory will result in the helicopter being clipped by the factory. This ends up appearing as if the heli is underneath the factory. It only happens for the upper part of the factory sprite.
It does not crash the game (AFAIK)
It does not interfere with the heli's flight.
Tested in: 0.0.5, 0.0.6

Well that's what you get when a modding API doesn't have a Z-index or draw order. In factorio it's just based on the Y-position. So I guess that mod does the same trick as helicopters do to get drawn on top. Will see.
