Prototype/ResourceEntity

Basics

A mineable/gatherable entity. An extension of Prototype/Entity.

Properties

category

Type: Types/string

The category for the resource.

 category = "basic-fluid"

infinite

Type: Types/bool

If the ore is infinitely minable, or if it will eventually run out of resource.

highlight

Type: Types/bool

If the ore appears on the map overview separately from large ore veins, or not. Default is False.

infinite_depletion_amount

Type: Types/unsigned

Every time an infinite-type resource "ticks" lower it's lowered by that amount. If not given, it defaults to 1. -- Rsending 91

resource_patch_search_radius

Type: Types/unsigned

autoplace

Type: Types/AutoplaceSpecification

If -and how- the ore spawns automatically, and randomly.

map_color

Type: Types/color

The color of the ore, on the map.

 map_color = {r=0, g=1, b=1} --This is Cyan.

map_grid

Type: Types/bool

stage_counts

Type: Types/table

see: Types/Stages

stages

Type: Types/Stages

Entity's graphics, using a graphic sheet, with variation and depletion.
