Hello,
I am having issues installing and using the mod. I can click on the "Install" button, which downloads the mod's archive in my AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods
folder; however, the mod doesn't show in the game's mod manager.
When I take a look in the mod's archive and try to extract it, I first get a Windows prompt that says that there is already a file that has the same name as a folder.
In fact, there is a data.lua
file and a data.lua
folder (which contains a data.lua
file); the same goes for thumbnail.png
and info.json
.
better-miners_2.1.0.zip (archive)
└── better-miners_2.0.0 (folder)
├── control.lua (folder)
│ └── control.lua (lua file)
├── data.lua (folder)
│ └── data.lua (lua file)
├── info.json (folder)
│ └── info.json (json file)
├── thumbnail.png (folder)
│ └── thumbnail.png (png file)
├── control.lua (lua file)
├── data.lua (lua file)
├── info.json (json file)
└── thumbnail.png (png file)
I can see the mod in the game's mod manager, and I am able to use it only when I delete the following folders in the archive:
├── control.lua (folder)
│ └── control.lua (lua file)
├── data.lua (folder)
│ └── data.lua (lua file)
├── info.json (folder)
│ └── info.json (json file)
└── thumbnail.png (folder)
└── thumbnail.png (png file)
Which leaves me with this
better-miners_2.1.0.zip (archive)
└── better-miners_2.0.0 (folder)
├── control.lua (lua file)
├── data.lua (lua file)
├── info.json (json file)
└── thumbnail.png (png file)
I hope this can help the author of this amazing mod.
Have a nice day,
Lamizor
