Hello,

as far to date i use walls in places were empty spaces needed to be if i want to place a blueprint over some .......

i find your mod very cool in that way (don't need to remove the walls afterward)

However it seems your mod is having problems with Cerys & Heat-management.
(I have bunch of other mods, but if i remove this two mods Negative-Space loads just fine)

With regards

The specific error seems to be:

Error while loading entity prototype "negative-space-auto-thermal-interface3" (reactor): Invalid heat pipe connections: connections must all be at least 1 tile distance from each other. Connection 1 ends up being the same as connection 5. in property tree at ROOT.reactor.negative-space-auto-thermal-interface3.heat_buffer.connections

This happens with only Heat Management installed.

It looks like TFMG-thermal is attempting to create a heat interface for my auto-generated negative space entity because Heat Management asked it to.

I think this is clearly a bug with Heat Management. I'll move this issue over to that mod. Link: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/heat-managment/discussion/695e93cf0f0c19b806f6c2eb
