[Mod] Factory [0.5.0.1] [factory]

[LemonLake]

Hi, I haven’t tried this mod yet, but I wonder wheather you had the idea from my old experimental conveyor belt mod. Anyways, it is great to see someone else tries to implement conveyor belts.
I’ll try this mod later.

Hey, never saw that mod before :P Hope you find it fun!

[TG-MyinaWD]

Hey Lemon. You should make bigger Smoke Tubes. Like we see in Real Life. I know sounds like be hard but bigger it is, the more better my Idea for Living Real can come a game mode.

But If it ok I can edit the Smoke tube I would then do myself.

Making a multi block structure for one single game mode is a bit overkill, especially for a potentially discontinued modm

[TG-MyinaWD]

Ok. Is it ok I can then change it to be about 4 blocks higher?

Just stack four of them. I'm releasing an update that'll add a setting for the height soon, though.

this mod is awesome

FYI i get this crash error with wieldview mod enabled when holding belt

Other than than nice mod. I'd like to see compressor be able to compress X amount of items into something(my example 100 copper maptools coin into ingot), maybe an easier recipelist instead of cooking type craft

I can't be too sure but it looks like the error has something to do with the animated texture on the belt, I may make an inventory image for it just to work around this problem.
As for the compressor, that may require a more complicated version of the current code but I think it could be added if its really needed.

[trainwrecktony]

i may modify it myself borrowing some of the code from mining_plus grinder...

Question ... looking at code are furnace and compressor more efficient with 4 high smoke tube?

[LemonLake]

They are exactly the same no matter the height.

plz auto-crafter!

They already work, just add the node to the two furnace like tables in settings

If you look in settings.txt, it looks something like this:

-- LemonLake's Factories: Config

-- Logging

-- Defines the furnace types for movers and takers.
-- Requires fuel, src and dst inventory types.
-- Don't change unless you know what you're doing.
armDevicesFurnacelike = {"default:furnace", "default:furnace_active", "factory:ind_furnace", "factory:ind_furnace_active", "factory:compressor", "factory:compressor_active"}
takerDevicesFurnacelike = {"default:furnace", "default:furnace_active", "factory:ind_furnace", "factory:ind_furnace_active", "factory:compressor", "factory:compressor_active"}

In order to add the autocrafters, simply add "pipeworks:autocrafter" to the end of both furnacelike tablse like so:

armDevicesFurnacelike = {"default:furnace", "default:furnace_active", "factory:ind_furnace", "factory:ind_furnace_active", "factory:compressor", "factory:compressor_active", "pipeworks:autocrafter"}
takerDevicesFurnacelike = {"default:furnace", "default:furnace_active", "factory:ind_furnace", "factory:ind_furnace_active", "factory:compressor", "factory:compressor_active", "pipeworks:autocrafter"}

Nice mod, i have fun by improving speed on coocking items, a 3x furnace







can be usefull an on/off switch for takers

[LemonLake]

On/off switch for takers? I like that idea. Will add in the next version!

[LemonLake]

A lot of work (and breaks) has gone into this update and I hope that soon I will be able to provide regular updates again!

[CraigyDavi]

Amazing update, keep up the good work.

[benedict424]

Great work!
I like seeing complex mods enter the stage!

[mtmodder148]

Could you explain how to use the industrial furnace please? When I use it nothing happens. I had iron lumps in source and coalblocks in fuel but nothing happened. Oh I also changed line 23 in belt.lua to this:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

local all_objects = minetest.get_objects_inside_radius(pos, 0.8)

I was having a problem with the items being picked up by the belt when I manually dropped them onto it. This fixed it. It also helped when I was using pipeworks to drop items onto the belt.

[LemonLake]

You need to have two or more smoke tubes (or something named along the lines of that) above the furnace.

Edit: thanks for the code modification. I'll implement it as a setting in the new version.

[mtmodder148]

Thank you so much. I had looked at the furnace code to find out but I still wasn't 100% sure. Good idea.

[AceWill]

I think I have found a bug with the storage tanks: I can use buckets to add water to a tank, and I can use buckets to remove water from the tank, but if I use a stack of buckets on the tank, it gives me one full bucket of water, but all of my other buckets, which should still be empty, disappear.

Additionally, the tanks can be transported with liquid in them, but when I place them, they don't always retain the liquid.

[Cryterion]

I think the bucket problem comes from a compatibility problem somewhere, I've seen it before with the standard minetest default games bucket mod, however it does work with carbone games bucket mod.

I have the carbone version on my server and don't have the problem.

If the default one was used and the stack count for empty buckets changed, then there's the problem, having thought it through now!

Edit: Not a Factory mod fault, had the problem just picking up water.

crash and burn. whenever i put the taker in front of the chest i get

Which kinda sucks becasue from what i seen this looks like a cool mod

[LemonLake]

Probably a change in mine test, this is a very old mod.

[tbillion]

old yet very cool ... you mind if i tinker with it? i love the conveyor belts...
