that description scared me for a second 😆

tacit prairie
#

whats so scary lol

stiff panther
#

because i tend to be the circuit network events guy, but these are a different breed of circuit network events

tacit prairie
#

yeah they're something else i've cooked up because there was no good solution

#

I do plan on adding some events of a different variety that use your circuit network shenanegins but thats a later problem

young wraith
#

Oooooo

#

That is lovely

#

(Also nice clippy pfp)

tacit prairie
#

:D

#

Clippy just wants to help

young wraith
#

He doesn't want your info or to train ais on your content

#

@raven oak

tacit prairie
#

anyways let me know if you have any issues. its pretty sound, shouldnt be any issues

young wraith
#

I shall!

tacit prairie
#

and a rather neat implementation if i do say so

#

im happy with how it turned out

raven oak
#

Won't work for me, i think. A platform isn't a player trianglepupper

young wraith
#

Right, but it sounds like script tie-ins are planned

#

just wanted to put it on your radar 🙂

tacit prairie
#

It works if the user is the one placing wires

#

I meant "non-player" as in robots or scripts or platforms building networks

#

"player" here just means the user directly interacting

young wraith
#

Aaaah, gotchya

#

(Also because it may have been too subtle, the use of the word "radar" above was intended as a double entendre which now that I have explained it should be at least 20% funnier, give or take 120%.)

tacit prairie
#

I got it lol

#

It just looks for interactions that create networks, not necessarially watching the entities of those networks

tacit prairie
#

i am now known as clippy man

#

i take this to be the same as magic man. but different.

#

@raven oak @young wraith finally got round to working on this again. the list of things i'm adding this event to right now:

  • script revive/place/destroy/clone
  • platform build/destroy
  • robot build/destroy
  • entity destruction (biters, asteroids, etc)

things i'm skipping because they'd be absurdly hard at a glance:

  • anything not previously mentioned dealing with ghosts
  • pre events for robot/script/platform actions
  • radars? some jank there because the hidden radar connections are technically wires, might cause issues depending on what you want to do
#

anything i'm missing? want me to look into anything i'm skipping for now?

young wraith
#

I am not sure, but I will thing on it. Is there anything for asteroid spawning?

tacit prairie
#

.... i think you're looking for the wrong mod

#

this was for the circuit network connections

#

wires getting added and removed and such

tacit prairie
#

huh, one rather simple function and it's done

#

time for destruction events

young wraith
#

oh wow

#

yep, that's what I get for replying on mobile

#

sorry, smoth of brain

#

Will mention it if I think of anything. 🙂

tacit prairie
#

:P

young wraith
#

well heck, i have a thought that you may have already done

#

or is maybe already a thing

#

Is it possible to, when making a circuit connection, figure out what to entities are being connected and disallow connecting them?

#

I see that the two entities can be seen

tacit prairie
#

Hmmmmm can you explain more?

#

Like, preventing belts from connecting to anything? Or preventing belts from connecting directly to inserters? Or something more specific like preventing two specific entities from connecting?

young wraith
#

The last

#

So like, if I wanted to make a new Assembler A and a new Assembler B, and for (my crazy ideas) I ONLY wanted to be able to make circuit connections between them, and NOTHING ELSE (that is, prevent circuit connections to Inserters, Combinators, etc. -- everything), would that be feasible?

tacit prairie
#

Oh totally

#

Just look at the connections and delete it if its not allowed
