Way too many items are set to cost 0, and other price problems
James-Fire opened this issue · comments
Bob's Ultimate Stack Inserters cost 0.
Bob's level 8 modules cost 0.
Bob's level 3 beacons cost 0.
All of Vortik's Deep Core chunks all cost 100, when they produce far more in ore. Some make 200 ore, some 100.
Electric engine units cost 0.
All the components from Space Extension cost 0.
This is not an exhaustive list. At the very least, these should not be defaulting to 0. Make them cost something.
And if you need something more robust to figure out costs of things, you can come look here https://github.com/James-Fire/Factorio-Tiberium/blob/Beta/Factorio-Tiberium/scripts/DynamicOreRecipes.lua
And talk to the guy that made it here https://discord.gg/Vt3hsrR
Does this behavior persist across versions?
I am already using the latest version. I downloaded and started this run less then 12 hrs ago, far below your 17 hr update.
Unless you want me to try an older version?
Yes please try an older version. I know I've tested Bob's on older versions, and the raw material value system hasn't changed since then so I'm trying to find the culprit. I've been meaning to rewrite that system in the mod anyway
I'll be able to do testing later.
How many versions should I try?
Just try 0.18.X along with the corresponding mod version if you can. Are you a modder yourself? I'm out of town for a few days so it's going to be at the weekend before I'm able to rewrite and fix this issue, so if you'd like you can submit a fix through a pull request. Thanks!
Yes, I very much am. If I can make myself familiar enough with the code, I might.
Alright cool, the code you'd be looking at starts at line 676 in control.lua. I'm not the one who wrote it so I don't have a complete grasp on it, it was written by the original mod creator who I have taken over for.
I have a feeling Transport Drones may be causing issues.
Petroleum gas is so cheap, and so little of it is "used" in those "recipes" that a lot is free.
I put up a temporary fix while I work on the real one, if you could let me know if it improves the situation that'd be much appreciated!
It looks like it didn't do much. A lot of the items that costed 0 still do. There are some that don't anymore.
A bunch of things that had absurd costs have even more absurd costs now. Instead of 24 billion, they now have 49 billion.
I think I'll just wait for that rewrite.
Just committed the fix for this, I have tested with Bob's and the prices are now all working. Expect the 2.0 release in a day or two
Yay, I'll let you know hot it goes once I have it.
