same here, i'm having troubles setting up the chests. sometimes they work out of the box. sometimes i place them in different orders (chests, belts, power poles) and they still wont connect.

playing 0.12.10 with mod version 2.0.0
not sure if there is a problem with some other mod. i hope not

It seems that this mod is broken with 0.12.20.

Whenever I try to load a map (both new game and existing save) the game throws me a notice:

__Slipstream__/control.lua:15: attempt to index global 'game'(a nil value)

And then the map fails to load. This both happens with, and without other mods.

I'm getting the same error as Ash is there a way to fix this>?

I've dived in to the code and fixed it for personal use. I don't know if I am allowed to re-share that code though

Hi,

The author of the mod stated it was unter MIT license. Here it what it says :

The MIT License (MIT)

So as long as you don't change the licensing and keep a link to the description of the MIT license, it should be OK.

[Edit] : typos

Why not just share the solution?

Which is replacing "game.on" with "script.on" iirc.

True, and don't forget to remove script.on_save and replacing all the occurrences of sschests and schedule with global.sschests and global.schedule because script.on_save was removed apparaently and the script used to use two local variables to hold the sschests and schedule variable which now seems to be needed to be accessed directly through the globals variable.

Anyway, I just uploaded that version of the things I changed above, upped the minor/bugfix number and hopefully the author can pick it up and make it an official release.

Thanks! I was scratching my head as to why i got the game.on_load (or script.on_load) error, as i was not aware that was removed (a few other mods that were "updated for 0.12.11+ have this issue too.) I don't know Lua so the fixes other than changing game.on_ with script.on_ are beyond e

Does anyone have this working on the current build? (0.12.24) i downloaded the file from ashnoom, the game loads the mod and starts up no problem but they do not pick up or drop items on conveyors...

I would recommend not using the mod. I used it a bit after fixing it, but it gave me more headaches, rather than making things easier. Sometimes the chest wouldn't eject or accept items leaving my conveyor belts empty.


I would wait for the mod author to first fix the mod. It still is ac cool mod/idea though

ok thanks for letting me know.

Doesn't work on 0.12.21 (ssc 2.0.0)
game.on_event -> script.on_event
game.on_save - event removed in 0.12
...and so on. And even after fixing these bugs chests don't operate with belts...

.12.21's an old experimental release anyway, and I wouldn't expect that it would.

does not work for 0.12.26 either on steam
says "__Slipstream__/control.lua:15: attempt to index global 'game' (a nil value)"
please fix as this mod looks great and i really really want to use it

I get the same error. Love Slipstream Chests and I'm curious if there's an update planned.

Edit:
So I have very, VERY little experience in programming and lua, so I'm sure I've probably just made a mess of things. I tried tweaking a few things in control.lua, I was able to get it to work... kind of. Works great as long as you never have to reload the save.

-Redefined schedule as a global variable
-removed game.on_Load and transferred it's internal code to game.on_init (on_Load was removed in 0.12.11)
-all game.on_init and game.on_event have been changed to the proper script.on_init/on_event
-removed game.on_save (on_save is was also removed)

All chests function properly on the creation of a game, but when you reload, all the chests stop input/output. Any newly placed chests function properly. Additionally, when you pick up one of the broken chests the chest and battery part have become separated. The battery part is indestructible and cannot be mined, thus creating a permanent object/obstruction in the middle of your belt.

Is there interest in this mod?

Was combining it with instant void chest mod to clean up some belts that got mixed and spread mixed coper/iron through my whole factory.

Slip stream did not work directly but I think it would just need the new transport belt lua functions which I did get working with void chest. Is original dev around or someone interested in maintaining it?

I am very interested in this mod or something similar. Inline belt storage is something I am constantly wishing I had in my builds.

Here is my first build on a mod around the inline concept, viewtopic.php?f=93&t=22955

Haven't made a release thread yet was trying to take screenshots and record some gifs.

Interacts with belts, and also trains+logistics chests. Put a logistics chest, wagon or locomotive then my interface chest. If the interface chest has belts inputting into it will transfer to the train/ logistics chest. If it has belts out it will pull from them instead.

If you red x all the slots it becomes a trash chest that deletes things you place in it or belt into it.

Also all works with splitters and underground belts.

I need help i recive this error upon loading any save

This mod hasn't been updated in a while. Not surprised it doesn't work correctly. You'll need to wait and see if anyone wants to take a crack at fixing it.
