Adding custom loaders:

For interested mod authors, you can create a vanilla-style loader with your own coloring very easily by setting this mod as a dependency and calling the following function:

vanillaHD.addLoader(name, color, belt_name, technology, previous_tier, next_tier)

Parameters:

• name - String, e.g. "your-loader-name".
• color - Table, e.g. {r = 255, b = 255, g = 255, a = 209}, Alpha value of 209 is recommended.
• belt_name - String, name of the belt integrated into your loader, e.g. "express-transport-belt".
• technology - String, name of the technology to unlock your loader, e.g. "logistics-2".
• previous_tier - String, name of the loader previous to yours to create a generic recipe which you can then modify at leisure, e.g. "loader". Also sets the upgrade path of the loader specified by previous_tier to upgrade to your loader.
• next_tier - String; Optional parameter. When specified, sets the upgrade path of your loader to the loader specified by next_tier. Only specify when inserting a loader in between existing tiers of loaders.

When adding multiple loaders, call the function from lowest tier to highest tier; the function will connect the upgrade paths.

When inserting in between existing tiers, remember to replace the loader ingredient in the next_tier loader.

Using Loader Redux's Snapping:

See https://github.com/kirazy/vanilla-loaders-hd/blob/master/control.lua for example on registering your loader with Loader Redux's snapping whitelist.

Known Issues:

• When Loader Redux is installed and snapping logic is enabled, loaders will connect to belts behind them.
• Train loading is limited to 120 items/s pending adjustments to control logic (affects Ultimate Belts).
