b [Running out of tiles - unfixable] Incompatibility with Alien Biomes

1 year, 7 months ago

The latest version (0.3.4) of True Nukes (and possibly earlier 0.3.x versions; I updated from 0.2.13) references the tile 'nuclear-deep', which is removed by the Alien Biomes mod:

Hi, thanks for the bug report.
Do you have dectorio, asphalt roads or any other tile-heavy mods installed?
Did you have the "use new crater tiles" setting disabled beforehand?
I've hit this issue before, and it seems to be another incarnation of the "factorio running out of tiles" problem. Basically the game supports a maximum of 256 tile types. True Nukes adds 6, but that can push it over the edge.

Most mods which add large numbers of tiles have settings to reduce the tile-load, for exactly this reason. True-Nukes doesn't add that many, and keeping the setting required me to maintain an entire separate world of detonation management.

I've had the same error for a while. Your fix of turning off tiles from other mods solved it for me. I turned off some of the extra markings from the asphalt mod. So thank you both.

Thanks, its a pretty weird issue, but there isn't much I can do.

I think it is what you said about exceeding max tile types. Asphalt adds 8 tiles per type and you can enable 6? Types. So that is 48 tiles. I wonder if True Nukes is somehow loading its tiles last? Thus getting the short end of the stick when they run out.

Yeah, I think I'm ending up at the end of the list, possibly due to the alphabet...
Anyway, the maximum is 255. The big killer is alien biomes really, it just doesn't leave enough space for other mods.

I'll look into my other mods for unnecessary tiles, thanks!

Yeah, that's a very-nice-to-have, but it does add a lot of stuff.

There are options in it to disable certain tile sets.

Alien Biomes has a "Remove Obsolete Tiles" setting that works nicely to resolve this deadlock (though I did have to disable Noxys Waterfill to get that to work, haha).

OK, well that sounds like an excellent solution. I'll add it to the FAQ...
