Hello,

I discovered the Hovercrafts Mod settings : "Hovercrafts drifting".
I really like the drifting behavior !
I change the setting,, move with my Hovercraft somewhere else, I changed back the setting.
Then I see my Hovercraft making a kind of quick move from the first setting location to the current one.

Is it a known issue ? is it fixable ? or not, due to the factorio API ? (I'm on the current latest, 0.17.47)
It is not blocking at all, it is just surprising!

Regards,
Thanks again for maintaining this mod !

Unfortunately, that is just the way it has to work. It is the way the script for making the drifting works. I am glad you enjoy my version and I will try to continue to support it until release at least.

I will try to explain a little more that is seems like a bug.
- start from a position "A" (with the drift setting enabled)
- stop the Hovercraft
- go to the Mod settings, disable the Hovercraft drifting.
- exit from the menu to resume the game
- now you can move the another position
- you are driving without drift
- go to a position "B" : try somewhere really far away from "A"
- stop your Hovercraft
- go to the Mod settings, enable the Hovercraft drifting.
- when you close the menu, resume the game
- you will see you Hovercraft make a straight line movement from "A" to "B".

At this moment the Hovercraft is stopped, why there is this animation ?
Is it a side effect of the drift feature that you can not fix ?

I will attempt this later this evening and see if I notice what you're referring to.

I personally can not seem to recreate your issue. I have followed your steps listed above and my hovercrafts stays at location "B" once I enable drifting again. Maybe a clip showing the issue you are having? Maybe a copy of your save world as well? I would like to work out the problem if I can.

I worked to reproduce the bug.
I reproduced the behavior but in certain conditions.

It seems only happened :
- after the settings changed from the drift unchecked to drift checked (but not from checked to unchecked)
- more often when the Hovercraft is in move.

I tried to move on circle just before pressing Escape to change the setting.

I reproduce with :
A fresh game (base 0.17.47 + Hovercraft 0.17.13 + Creative Mod 1.1.4).
I enabled Creative mod (with cheats) to directly create a Hovercraft and a rocket fuel.

I save my game, disable Creative mod, reload the saved game without Creative mod.
I still reproduce with different version of factorio and Hovercraft :
- factorio (base 0.17.47) + Hovercraft (0.17.13).
- factorio (base 0.17.48) + Hovercraft (0.17.13).
- factorio (base 0.17.48) + Hovercraft (0.17.15).
- factorio (base 0.17.50) + Hovercraft (0.17.15).

Do you suceed to reproduce the behavior ?

Unfortunately, I am out of town until Thursday. I will look more into this once I return home.
