local spawn = {x = 1030 * scale, y = 520 * scale}

This will start you in Illinois near Chicago.

On that note, the line "local spawn = {x = 3695 * scale, y = 1365 * scale}"

Starts you in NSW, Australia, near the coast

I just added selectable spawning locations. There are a bunch in there, if you want to request more let me know :D

Sorry to bother, how can I configure the mod?

3 years ago

In the mod settings of your savegame. All configurable things should be there. Have fun!

It won't let me install the mod from the automatic menu,
It is like if the mod was not installed, I think it is an update problem (v0.18.35)

The game does not detect the specific mod :(

Do you get some specific error or something? Or could you send me a picture of your mods install screen, and the mod settings? Because it runs fine on my machine, just updated to Factorio 0.18.35.

Where can I contact to send you a screenshot or a video of the error that happens to me?

Ah, didn't realise you can't post pictures here. Try the github issues: https://github.com/TheOddler/FactorioWorld/issues

How can I send you a screenshot?

You can add them to your issue report on github. Just copy the image and paste it in there, should work. If it doesn't, use something like imgur: https://imgur.com/

I was able to send the screenshot

I reuploaded the latest version, using a zip zipped with a different algorithm. The zip is a bit bigger but should actually work now.

It has the same version number though, does your game say there is an update?

Let me know if it works now!

Maybe I should just bump the version, then it's clear an update is needed. Or does it work like this too? Let me know! Thanks :D

Sorry I did not inform you that I was able to solve the problem, I had to download all the versions of the mod and install them, from the first to the latest version. I also realized that there was a compatibility problem with other mods you had installed

How could I create a world on a real scale?
Another thing I wanted to know, how can I appear in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina?

These are the maps I used: http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-raster-data/10m-natural-earth-2/
I'm not sure what their scale is, so maybe if you can figure that out you know what scale to set the map in game to.

There are also spawn options in the settings, not sure where Buenos Aires is exactly, but maybe you can find something close? Or there is an option to set custom coordinates, so you can try to get close with that too!
