[Request] Factory on continuous build by default

Title says it all.
Is it possible to code it?

I support this.

Yes it is possible. Could be easily modded too.

I'd love this and I'll try to do it if someone hasn't done it by the time I'm doing updating my profile pic mod.

well there already is the Auto factory mod which is better in that you can turn it on and off.

I prefer continuous build because it lets you set a looping mix of units (like 1 flame tank, 5 ants).

ye, we'll, let's get cracking!

In the factory blueprint, add the following:

Code:

  "factory": {
    "default_build_stance": "Continuous"
  }

I presume it's a client-side value, but haven't actually tested. You can probably set a default unit to build too:

Code:

  "factory": {
    "initial_build_spec": "<path to unit blueprint>",
  }

(Again, untested)

I don't know what file that is?

not live_game?

It's the unit blueprints, eg: \pa\units\land\bot_factory\bot_factory.json

The factory attribute should already be there, just have to add default_build_stance/initial_build_spec.

Aah that's how the nuke launcher auto builds, I knew it was new.

I had considered that as the next step, but it would be quite a massive update code-wise, and limited as the settings would only be changeable from the settings menu (and global). It might come in the far future, but time is in short supply.
