The github page says it is NOT being maintained. Probably there will be no 0.16 version of this particular long reach mod.

that's a bummer for sure. this is a great QoL mod.

Actually, long reach is working fine, but it's disabled because the version info in the info.json file says the mod is suited for 0.15.

I saw a discussion on reddit about this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/7jl5fi/i_updated_squeak_through_and_long_reach_for_016/

As suggested there, a simple change to the info.json file resolves the issue:
{
"name": "long-reach",
"version": "0.0.8",
"title": "Long Reach",
"author": "James Aguilar",
"contact": "aguilar.james@gmail.com",
"homepage": "http://github.com/jaguilar",
"description": "You can reach anything you can see. You can build anywhere you can see.",
"factorio_version":"0.16",
"dependencies": ["base >= 0.13.0"]
}

And works OK for me, although I did only brief testing - in 0.16.6 (build 34439, win64). Not my mod, not my solution, but I thought to share this anyway because it's so simple...

I think i'm missing something. I'm on a mac, i've found the json files, mod folder, etc. I don't see how to make the edits. I feel like I'm missing something so simple that it's right in my face. any basic tips? click here, do this kinda stuff that might help?

Thanks for updating to v0.16

I am having one issue, now I cannot open item GUI (ie boxes assemblers etc) from zoomed in map mode.

I have tried with and without non-placeable items in my hand.
I have tried changing the map scroll to middle click so it doesn't interfere.
I have tried changing the GUI open to middle click (with map drag back on left).

Zoomed map mode is currently not supported. Maybe I'll add this feature (if thats possible with the modding api...)
