i Rename request

"Vanilla Loaders HD: Krastorio 2" seems a little more appropriate :)

I mean... I guess. But I don't really anticipate ever releasing an update for this, unless something goes horribly wrong, so...

well it would involve just changing one line to make it easier to find on the mod portal when searching explicitly for krastorio 2: https://github.com/kirazy/vanilla-loaders-hd-krastorio/blob/master/info.json#L5

and as for the going wrong part, i was on the verge of trying to somehow cut & port https://mods.factorio.com/mod/vanilla-loaders-hd 2 wide to 1 wide textures, and then by some miracle i found this mod's description since the title would imply it only being for an older version, so it nearly went horribly wrong for me :D

I know the change is easy, but I don't see a reason to push a whole new version just to rename it. Your comment about it not being easy to find when searching for Krastorio 2 may have merit, but it is in the description, and is the 15th result if you search for Krastorio 2.

What were your plans for a 1x1 version of the sprite? Just to reskin Krastorio?

well personally when i try to search for krastorio 2 content i generally ignore those that just list krastorio in the title since that is an older version.

the plans i had were essentially the same goal as this mod accomplishes :)

sadly github is experiencing issues atm so i cannot make a pull request, but here is a version with an updated title, version, thumbnail & changelog to make the barrier to entry easier for you in the event that you do decide to merge it: https://send.firefox.com/download/a52f9f2aa6f7cedf/#wU6JRP9wbiyEC7UJJWNEYw

Hmm. I'll think about it.

any idea for how long?

I want to do new thumbnails for the loader mods, following (sort-of) the style I made for the Reskins mods.

I'm playing with it, and have been for the last week. We'll see. No promises.

allright :)

(ps, there is a pull request that only recently got created due to a github outage, trying to close that since forever but they didn't fix that button yet)

until the new thumbnail is ready i have put up a placeholder mod to alert the outsiders: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/vanilla-loaders-hd-krastorio-2

You can go ahead and pull that.

I can't make the thumbnail do what I want, and I don't think your request is unreasonable, so. lol. I also forgot I had made some changes that I was sitting on a reason to release.
