I love this mod. I hate to bring sad news but i received an error after Factorio updated. Factorio 2.1.20(build 87512) hope the image helps and you have an awesome day.thank you

Thanks for the report, fixed for the next release (no changelog entry).

For the next release, 2.1.21, I've added a hidden setting for adjusting the rocket launch volume. I didn't come up with anything funny or clever so it's just Code: rocket-launch-volume-multiplier Set it to something < 1.0 to reduce the volume. You can also increase it (just a little bit though until you run against a global limit) if you change your mind! And don't tell anybody, it's a secret!

We have released a fix for this problem, mod uploads with large changelogs should not be failing any more.

Consider taking a different approach. What is your motivation to craft artillery shells on the platform? The shell has a stack size of 1, so it will consume a huge amount of space, and space is constrained on a platform. So it's more efficient to just transport the ingredients, and whats more, just required ingredients, and craft on the planet. 2 of the ingredients are available on the planet Nauvis, so you don't need to send it up to the platform and don't need to store them. You need to transport just calcite and tungsten plate, from where you have to transport calcite anyway since you need it everywhere. First I noticed that my main delivery ship makes a lot of trips when I craft shells on Nauvis, so I decided to make them on Vulcanus first since 2 ingredients come from there. Then I noticed 10 shells take more space in a rocket than materials for those shells, so I decided to import materials specifically. And only after a few hours of creating the bp and the post I realized I can just build a second ship and import plates and calcite alone, but now I'm committed to finishing it for the sake of it, even if it won't be the way I wanted it initially. 1 rocket is able to carry 500 calcite and another one 250 tungsten plates, which are 10 + 5 = 15 stacks, from which you can craft up to 62 artillery shells and there is still 500-62=438 calcite = 9 stacks left. If you did this on the platform, you explode 15 stacks to 71 stacks, not even counted the 10 stacks you need for explo

Rhanks both!

Multiple prototypes can have the same order string, they get sorted by prototype name in that case. Decoratives are only shown in the map editor, so it is not worth the time to find all the orders that are the same and make them unique. It would not change the sorting anyway. The words used in the order string themselves are meaningless, the game just sorts the strings alphabetically.

Thank you so much for the fast fixes as always!

Thanks for the report. This is now fixed for the next release, 2.1.21. Music will resume only when changing the music volume settings and will go back to being muted when leaving the sound settings.

For SpaceLocationPrototype, origin sets where center of the orbit is and where distance/orientation puts the planet. For SpaceConnectionPrototype, origin is only used by shape="arc" as a center point. (oh no, i failed to update docs for distance/orientation, it is still referencing the sun) Please update the docs to to indicate that setting origin will make distance and orientation to be around that origin, not simply changing orbit
