⚠️ SearchlightAssault ⚠️


Adds a game map and searchlights which sweep for foes at great range, alerting you while directing adjacent turrets to snipe spotted foes. Designed to dovetail with the early-mid game, searchlights provide: - Circuit network interfaces for search & detection I/O - Incentive to automate lamp & combinator production in the early game - New tactics to assault biter bases without leap-frogging turrets!

b Item stack count has to be positive integer

2 years ago

Hello was using your mod and noticed when construction bots or nanobots were trying to place the search light a error would pop up saying item stack count has to be a positive integer. In the case of construction bots it crashed the game and nano bots it did not. This error seems to occur after a search light is placed. I tried this a few times and seems to consistently happen.

Thanks for your report! I'm having trouble reproducing this, any chance you can send me your save? Or copy paste the error message you saw?

Right so the error message was the title of this post, and I was wrong about how its done. Its actually blue printing it and having nano bots fill it in. I have attached my save I am using, to replicate place blue print and let nano bots build it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fSFEXGES4ScwgbUqFu3cXzrIJU2rKmwZ/view?usp=sharing

Perfect, thank you!
I've just released version 2.2.7 which should solve the issue, at least for new searchlights.

The new version should start to appear in the mod portal shortly.
If you don't see it in-game you can download it manually here: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/SearchlightAssault/downloads
