Patches & Projects / Slightly reworked factory wind...

Last post by ceeac - January 31, 2026, 07:10:45 AM

This patch slightly reworks the factory window to hopefully improve the readability of the production/consumption section. Translation strings still need to be added to base.tab.

Randomness Lounge / A pity we don't have reversing...

Last post by Isaac Eiland-Hall - January 30, 2026, 01:53:56 PM

Scrolling through reddit and found a funny post:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Factoriohno/comments/1qr0niq/theres_gotta_be_an_easier_way_to_turn_trains/

It's about how to turn a train around, but it's not the most efficient way - it's a silly joke.

But stuff like that would be fun to deal with in Simutrans.

I mean, I think it's better that trains do turn themselves around since a tile is also 1km¹.... but still, this would be fun to model as well

Programm Code Documentation


wow
class script_tool_manager_t



class obj_t

I don't get along well with diagrams, and this one in particular is incomprehensible to me. I usually analyze the code, look for functional parts that relate to what I need, and do tests and experiments until I get the expected result.

I requested this.

Since I'm using the tooltip translation text in Scenario Chapter 2 Step H, I also need the %i value.

And since the parameter is located in simuconf.tab, it's also possible that it has been changed. This would mean that, with a fixed number, the text would no longer match the in-game display.

My goal is to use as much of the existing text as possible. And the labels for the tools and tooltips, in particular, should match the text in the tutorial.

Care to elaborate why? That setting is only relevant for network games which are not really scripted (so far).
