I don't think i need to write more ;)

basically updating to base >=2.0 but i don't know how much changed or if its even still possible

I had it working this morning, but now it crashes at line 12 of data-final-fixes.lua.
From factorio-current.log:
Error ModManager.cpp:1733: Failed to load mod "Mining_Drones": core/lualib/collision-mask-util.lua:70: attempt to index field 'layers' (a nil value)

You can fix this by moving

local drone_layer = ...
data:extend(drone_layer)

From the top of data-final-fixes.lua to the bottom of data.lua. The prototype needs to be established in the prototype phase to be available to the collision-mask-util. Then back in data-final-fixes replace drone_layer.name with "mining_drone".

Also, custom_drop_offsets need to be 0, 4, 8, 12 instead of 0,2,4,8 in mining_depot.lua to handle the new 16 directions.

Edit: created a PR #23

The "mining-drone" above threw me off a bit. Should be "mining_drone".
Anyway, all is good and works now.
Thanks a lot.

And here is my version of the mod. It will probably take awhile for the fixes to be merged with someone with 'write access'.
I increased the stack size to 200, changed the recipe a bit for the 'station', and increased the speed that the mining drones are built.

Mining_Drones_2.0.0.zip

Woops, fixed the comment. The PR was right.

[JamieRCHI]

Thanks.

Still getting:

Error ModManager.cpp:1741: Failed to load mod "Mining_Drones": __core__/lualib/collision-mask-util.lua:70: attempt to index field 'layers' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
        __core__/lualib/collision-mask-util.lua:70: in function 'collect_prototypes_with_layer'
        __Mining_Drones__/data-final-fixes.lua:7: in main chunk

When using your version.

[JamieRCHI]

I will compare what I have, with the PR that dpwhittaker posted above when I have some time. What I posted is still working for me, but I may have missed something.

It looks like Factorio caused some bugs in 2.0.1 (this mod). So far, the game is starting without errors. This mod still throws an error during migration when Space Age is installed:

 558.822 Error AppManagerStates.cpp:1648: The mod Mining Drones (2.0.1) caused a non-recoverable error.
Please report this error to the mod author.
