yep, I noticed the update you did and I updated the mod and retested it, the asteroid now doesnt crash the game, so it was the same kind of problem as the other post.
Edit:
I use this discussion to post further bugs I found, I hope you notice this edit.
I love the idea of this mod, and thats why I started to play with it and try to put it into blueprints I used, but I noticed more bugs as I tried to add it it to more complex mods.
With Krastorio2:
-when the spotlight finds a target, the turret fires at it, but its range is not increased, it wastes its bullets.
-when picking up the spotlight or destroying it, the turrets its influencing get damaged and in some cases the ammo gets removed.
I think both are related to Krastorio editing the turrets devault values, its range and health.
crashes with the mod Editor Extension:
While in the Editor Mode, when on any other Tab that the Default "None" Tab, picking up either turrets or the searchlights crashes the game.
using the King Jo's Watchtower Mod:
The watchtower is influenced by the Spotlight, even when not directly adjecent to the searchlight. I think it suffers from the same range bug as Krastorio Default turrets. https://mods.factorio.com/mod/kj_tower
I've uploaded the savegame (https://anonfiles.com/j90dtbK4v0/Spotlight_test_Gunrange_zip)
I use this space to make a suggestion as well:
I really like the spotlights as a guard thing, but it really needs further, easier settings. With the circuit network we can manipulate its search light, but that freezes it completly onto that spot with a constant signal, doing any custom search patterns requires a extensive signal manipulation.
What I'd like to see is something like this:
- when given either X or Y but not both: make it still sweep on the unset axis.
That way we can make it sweep left&right or up&down on a set distance with a simple constant combinator sending either X or Y.
- a setting to lock only positive or negative on X and Y separatly (for example y=-1 => only negative Y)
With this we can make it search only 180° ( X=1, Y unset) or lock it 90° sections (e.g. X=1, Y-1).
Again, a simple constant combinator sending X/Y with -1 or 1.
