i Mouse cursor position ?

4 years ago

Is directly following the other player's cursor positions possible in Factorio ?
As an example, see the moving dots here :

I'm not sure. I didn't find the right method to get the cursor position. Only if the player hovers his cursor over the entity.

I think its possible, as i remember a FFF that the game engine calculates and sends cursor information to and from the server, but i honestly doubt the factorio API has a way to get that information out of a remote player.

For example, I can make a laser weapon. You can use it to "shoot" a laser beam anywhere (without damage).

Well, it is working. But it works little weird in multiplayer mode. I need more testing. Maybe a big ping could be a problem.

But if you want to try (for 0.17):

cursor positions != selection rectangles

Unless that setting is poorly named ?
