Car icon on map.

[RozeDoyanawa]

Hi,
I read in the mod forum post in the Factorio forums that the nixie tubes is constructed as a car with different angles to change the display. Someone said it has to be like this, but I cant help but wonder if that really is the case.

The SmartDisplay mod features a display which is Really nifty for displaying stuff. However far from as attractive as the nixie tubes. So maybe you should look into how he/she did it? It even displays the value on the map (user choice).

Kind regards.
I'm using the nixie Tubes mod available from the ModManager in game. I dont know if you are the author of it or not, but anyway.

sorry for slow response, the mod was made many versions ago, and there may well be a better way now, but at the time I couldn't find a better way, nor could anyone I talked to on the forums. And believe me, I beat my head against it for a loooong time trying to find a way that didn't have a car icon on the map xD

I've not been playing factorio for a long time now, will probably be next year before I find time to do so again, and even then, this mod won't be my highest priority. I can easily live without it, unlike autowire.
