Hmm, I can't reproduce. But perhaps that is just normal in the wonderful world of desyncs.
I am not sure what the problem is, but I am no expert (it is a very simple mod). But ChatGPT suggested the code below, that the problem was iterating over connecting players - if you feel like making the effort, could you replace the contents of control.lua, and see if it helps?
local mod_gui = require("mod-gui")
local playtime = {
play_time_seconds = -1
}
local function ensure_gui(player)
local flow = mod_gui.get_button_flow(player)
local button = flow.clockGUI
if button and button.valid then
return button
end
return flow.add{
type = "button",
name = "clockGUI",
style = mod_gui.button_style,
caption = ""
}
end
local function update_button(player)
local button = ensure_gui(player)
local seconds = playtime.play_time_seconds % 60
local minutes = math.floor(playtime.play_time_seconds / 60) % 60
local hours = math.floor(playtime.play_time_seconds / 3600)
if hours > 0 then
button.caption = string.format(
"Total time: %d:%02d:%02d",
hours,
minutes,
seconds
)
else
button.caption = string.format(
"Total time: %02d:%02d",
minutes,
seconds
)
end
end
script.on_init(function()
for _, player in pairs(game.players) do
ensure_gui(player)
end
end)
script.on_configuration_changed(function()
for _, player in pairs(game.players) do
ensure_gui(player)
end
end)
script.on_event(defines.events.on_player_created, function(event)
local player = game.get_player(event.player_index)
if player then
ensure_gui(player)
end
end)
script.on_event(defines.events.on_player_joined_game, function(event)
local player = game.get_player(event.player_index)
if player then
ensure_gui(player)
update_button(player)
end
end)
script.on_event(defines.events.on_tick, function(event)
local previous = playtime.play_time_seconds
playtime.play_time_seconds = math.floor(event.tick / 60)
if previous == playtime.play_time_seconds then
return
end
for _, player in pairs(game.connected_players) do
update_button(player)
end
end)
