b [2.0.48] usage of `solar` usage priority is illegal

3 months ago

Starting with 2.0.48 i noticed crashes involving this mod so for 2.0.49 i added a prototype check that throws an error with this mod: space-solar-panel (electric-energy-interface) uses solar energy usage priority. Given this usage was a non documented usage and was working only by a pure luck, this was not a guaranteed behavior and will be disallowed.

1.311 Failed to load mods: Error while loading entity prototype "space-solar-panel" (electric-energy-interface): 'solar' energy usage priority can only be used by SolarPanelPrototype in property tree at ROOT.electric-energy-interface.space-solar-panel.energy_source

Well thats a shame, will need to figure that out... as the solar panel prototype doesn't work for rotatable sprites.

any progress on a fix for this? currently prevents load in current stable (2.0.55), but works with 2.047. I'm gonna take a stab at fixing this too. would it help to use the solar panel prototype and just include a left and right wing as separate items?

@LordMiguel I've fixed this. How can I send it to you? Do you use Discord? (If so, find me on SafTheLamb's server)

Comment above is literally why people invented open source.

@S6X Oh awesome, yea sorry everyone I've just been at it with the actual work recently and my Factorio mod maintenance has suffered =(, I do have discord, hbut also I'll quickly make a git repos for all my mods so you can update it there! (Might be easiest!)

@LordMiguel, unrelated to issue: you have a "Source" field on the main (information) page, could you link it there?

There we go! Thanks for the fix S6X, good example of how to handle something with a bit of control.lua, I am far less familiar with the control lua api than the rest so it was great to see!

The source field is also now correctly updated @Mappleaf!
