Hello there,

I'm making a mod myself and now want to add the feature that enemies drop certain items.I've looked through your sourcecode and can't seem to find the point where it checks if enemies died. Could you help my with that or even just point me into the right direction?

I'm not a total factorio modding beginner but the whole lua scripting is new to me, so please forgive me.

Do not worry about handling enemy deaths or checks, it is done by the game itself.
You only need to assign the loot items into table of each enemy units (e.g., behemoth biter) that you are interested.

My code is not that simple enough for learning. You can see how loot table is defined in this page.

That of course makes it a lot easier.
I should've guessed that I dont have to check for enemy deaths 😅
