b Incompatibility? Picker Dollies

4 years ago

Unsure if this is something that would work, but there seems to be an issue with Picker Dollies [https://mods.factorio.com/mod/PickerDollies].

In short, when I "slide" or move the placed robosubstation entity, the spinner/antenna from the roboport, and the logistic zone both are duplicated. The substation component moves correctly however. I know this is achieved with a complex object, so uncertain if this would be do-able. Maybe just throw an error, or somehow inform the Picker API that this is an "unmoveable" entity, etc. Because as of now, I can't find a way to actually remove these duplicated bits from the robosubstation.

Pictures show this easier than I've likely been able to describe it:

In this pictures, you can see I've attempted to move the robosubstation down two tiles, and up one tile from the original position. Hence, three duplicated spinners, and three duplicated logistic zone/connection.

Thanks for this mod!

If there is nothing to be done about allowing this to work correctly, it does seem there is a way for mods to update a blacklist:

I found this in the Picker Dollies changelog:
- Added remote interfaces for adding/removing/checking the blacklist 'add_blacklist_name', 'remove_blacklist_name', 'get_blacklist_names'.

And a commit of where LTN was updated to add it's own entities to the Picker Dollies blacklist:
