A
beacon
is a device that transmits
module
effects to nearby non-burner machines, in a 9×9 square, while also boosting the effects of said modules. A beacon allows transmitting the effect of a module to multiple machines, and multiple beacons can affect the same machine, albeit with diminishing returns. Additionally, beacons can provide boosts beyond the normal limits of internal module slots.
The beacon emanates an electrical charge at a steady interval, the color changes depending on which modules are placed into the beacon, or if it contains none at all.

Usage
Beacons are
best
in these scenarios:
There are many compatible machines in a dense area
This allows the beacon's effect to reach multiple machines, allowing the player to save materials from crafting modules.
There is one machine that must have an extreme speed of operation
Mining drills present an example of this usefulness. When an ore patch is small but rich, more speed per drill is necessary to meet demand, since adding more drills isn't possible. So, multiple speed module beacons around a mining drill (with modules in the drill itself) can be used to increase the speed of the individual drill several times, to make up for the low quantity of drills.
Beacons should
not
be used in these scenarios:
The machine(s) being boosted operate infrequently
This leads to power waste as beacons will always consume power, even when the machines they're boosting are halted. This however can be circumvented with some planning, and using a
power switch
.
Attempting to boost non-module-compatible machines
Only machines that have module slots will be affected by a beacon.
Limitations
Only buildings with module slots can benefit from beacon effects (i.e.
laser turret
doesn't benefit). The only exceptions to this rule are beacons themselves which
don't
benefit from the modules inserted in themselves (or other beacons), so their energy cost can't be reduced.
Currently, only
speed
and
efficiency
modules can be used in beacons, and
productivity
and
quality
modules cannot.
Multiple beacons overlapping the same machine will have diminishing returns, so it's more efficient to surround buildings around beacons than surround beacons around buildings.
Transmission strength
The effect of modules placed in beacons is not equal to those placed in the machines themselves. Rather, it is multiplied by a factor called "transmission strength". This factor is applied to all stats affected by the module, both good and bad.
The transmission strength itself depends on two factors. One is the distribution efficiency stat of the beacon; For normal beacons, this is always 1.5, but quality can increase it up to 2.5 for legendary beacons. The second factor is the reciprocal square root of the number of beacons affecting each machine. Therefore, in total,
n
beacons affecting the same machine will have a combined transmission strength of
n^0.5
.
In practical terms, this means that there are diminishing returns on increasing the number of beacons affecting the same machine, as the effect per beacon decreases when more are added.
Maximum number per building
The maximum number of beacons that can be built in range of a building depend on that building's footprint:
Buildings from 2×2 to 4×4 size:
12 beacons
, with an effect of 3.46 times that of a single beacon.
Buildings from 5×5 to 7x7 size:
16 beacons
, with an effect of 4 times that of a single beacon.
Buildings from 8x8 to 10x10 size:
20 beacons
, with an effect of 4.47 times that of a single beacon.
It should be noted that, because the space between a beacon and a machine can not be greater than two tiles without putting the machine outside of the beacon's range, belt routing can become a challenge. In some situations, use of the logistic network may be required in order to supply the machines.
The maximum number of beacons that can be built in range of a row of buildings:
Row of 3×3 buidings:
8 beacons
, with an effect of 2.83 times that of a single beacon.
Row of 5×5 buidings:
10 beacons
, with an effect of 3.16 times that of a single beacon.
Note that when buildings and beacons are arranged in parallel rows like this, the offset between buildings and beacons along the direction of the rows is important. For example, imagine placing a row of
assembling machine 3s
between two rows of beacons. If the sides of the beacons and the assembling machines line up, every assembling machine is affected by six beacons in total. Howevever, if either the beacons or the assembling machines are shifted by one tile relative to the other, then each assembling machine is affected by eight beacons in total.
In general, depending on the width of the machines modulo 3:
If the width of the machines is divisible by three, then the arrangement is optimal when the sides of a machine do not align with the sides of a beacon on the axis perpendicular to the direction of the rows.
If the width of the machines modulo 3 is 1 (such as a width of 4), then any offset leads to an optimal layout.
If the width of the machines modulo 3 is 2 (such as a width of 5), then the arrangement is optimal when the center of a machine aligns with the center of a beacon on the axis perpendicular to the direction of the rows. Note that this requires a one-tile gap between the machines.
Beacon arrays
Beacons can boost the overall capabilities of a factory quite significantly. However, they consume a considerable amount of power (480 kW apiece), take up nontrivial space, complicate logistics, and also are relatively expensive to craft. Therefore, when building an entire production line with a high beacon boost, it is significantly more economical to build a row of production buildings surrounded by row(s) of beacons, rather than single buildings surrounded by the maximum number of beacons theoretically possible. This also simplifies logistics and makes the design more tiling-friendly.
The maximum possible benefits are reduced somewhat in row-array configuration (for 3×3 buildings, 8 beacons per building are possible instead of 12; for 5×5 buildings, 10 instead of 16), but the number of beacons required to achieve this boost level is considerably lower. For example, for a single row of 3×3 buildings surrounded by a double row of beacons so that each production building is in range of 8 beacons, the total number of beacons required is
2n + 6
, where
n
is the number of production buildings.
The average number of beacons per building is then
2 + (6 ÷ n)
, which tends toward 2 (i.e., a 75% reduction in the number of beacons needed compared to isolated buildings with 8 distinct beacons each) when
n
goes to infinity. For e.g.
n
= 10 the formula evaluates to 2.6, which is still a reduction of 67.5% in beacons needed.
Multi-row arrays
For large numbers of buildings to be boosted, efficiency can be further improved by separating production buildings into multiple rows. In this case, the beacons in all but the edge rows of the array can be shared by the two rows of production buildings on either side. (Note that it does not matter if these are producing different recipes and / or are different buildings altogether.) The total number of beacons required, assuming 3×3 sized production buildings and rows of equal length, is
B(r,c) = (r + 1)(c + 3) = rc + 3r + c + 3
, where
r
is the number of rows of production buildings and
c
is the number of production buildings in a single row.
The number of beacons per boosted building is then
(3 ÷ rc) + (1 ÷ r) + (3 ÷ c) + 1
, which tends to 1 as both
r
and
c
go to infinity. For finite arrays, the optimum number of rows is given by
r = -0.5 + sqrt[(n ÷ 3) + 0.25]
, where
n
is the total number of buildings to be boosted.
The formula above does not generally return integer results. If the
r
thus found is non-integer, iterate around it, i.e., calculate the number of beacons needed with
floor(r)
(the next lower integer) and
ceiling(r)
(the next higher integer) rows and compare the results. For each such integer
r
, calculate
c
as
floor(n ÷ r)
, then calculate the number of beacons as
B(r,c)
+
mod(n,r)
+ 1, where
B(r,c)
is given above and
mod(n,r)
is
n
modulo
r
, i.e., the remainder of (
n
÷
r
), equal to
n
- (
r
×
c
).
There will in either case be
mod(n,r)
buildings "left over"; these should be appended one per row to the ends of a contiguous block of neighboring rows for the total beacon count calculation above to be valid. Other configurations for the leftovers (e.g. all appended to the end of a single row, one each at the end of every second row, etc.) require a higher number of beacons to cover.
Optimal arrays
For 3×3 structures, arrays satisfying
c = 3r
are optimal, in the sense that they minimize the number of beacons required to cover the total number of structures (
rc
), therefore allowing the most use out of an individual beacon. Since structures may only be built in integer amounts, there are, below a reasonable cutoff on total array size, only a finite number of integer structure counts
rc
with which an optimal array such that
c = 3r
and
c
and
r
are integer may be built. The first few counts, along with associated array sizes and beacons-to-structures ratios, are summarized in the table below.
| Structures | Rows | Columns | Beacons | Beacons per structure | Dimensions (tiles)* |
| ---------- | ---- | ------- | ---------------- | --------------------- | ------------------- |
| 3 | 1 | 3 | 12 | 4.00 | 18×11 |

| 147 | 7 | 21 | 192 | 1.31 | 72×59 |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
| 3r^2 | r | 3r | (r + 1) (3r + 3) | 1 + 2/r + 1/r^2 | (9r + 9) × (8r + 3) |
Notes to table:
Array dimension in tiles (last table column) assumes 2 tiles' space (e.g. inserter + chest) is left either above or below each row of structures, while no extra space is left anywhere else.
The 5-row array (75 structures) is the largest that can be covered by a logistic network generated from roboports located outside its footprint. For larger arrays, at least a minimal number of roboports would need to be strategically placed in the interior to provide coverage, thereby worsening the beacons-to-structures proportion somewhat.

Log file location
Factorio keeps log files in the
user data directory
, next to the saves and mods directories. It is a .log file that can be opened with any text editor.
The file you need most of the time is
factorio-current.log
.
Backup copy of the log file from previous run is in factorio-previous.log.
File layout
The file is a long list of lines. The first column is the amount of seconds the game has been running. Typically, game starting will take anywhere from 10-60 secs.
The first line is a print about your build of the game. For the Steam version for Linux, this will be:
0.000 2017-04-24 21:39:48; Factorio 0.15.1 (build 29050, linux64, steam)
It will vary by version, OS, and origin of the game.
Next follows information about the install of the game itself, like the specific version of the OS, and arguments provided to the game launch. It will also print read/write data paths, which can give clues about where the game stores the files it creates, and its install location.
It then prints off a bunch of information about graphics, hardware, and starts loading mods. The base game is loaded first, then all the mods the user has installed. It will print the order it loads mods in, this can be useful for debugging when a mod causes the game to fail to init. The log file also gives some insight to the interior code of Factorio, right after checking checksums it will load the PlayerData.cpp file, which compares the player-data.json to the cloud version (if running on steam) and checks for changes.
After initializing mods, it will checksum them (used for the mod portal, to detect new versions) and start loading sprites, creating atlas bitmaps. At some point, it will print
Sprites loaded
and start compressing the atlas depending on graphics settings. It will then load the sound engine, check custom inputs, and then finish.
As soon as the user loads a map, it will state so, and specify the process of loading the map, loading from a few .dat files. The user is now free to play.
Bug Reporting
Log files contain information helpful to diagnose any type of bug, accordingly they are required in any official bug report to be made in the factorio forums. Please follow the
bug report instructions
closely when making a report.
Privacy
Log files contain the system date and time of your Factorio session, your updater login name and full paths for some files belonging to Factorio or mods. Typically all of the information in a log file is not sensitive. | wiki | https://wiki.factorio.com/Log_file_-_Factorio_Wiki |

Agricultural science pack
is a
Gleba
science pack. It is used in
labs
to
research
technologies
.
The agricultural science pack does spoil, which will gradually decrease its research value, so the player is incentivized to build a fast space platform to bring them back to Nauvis. The spoil time also scales with
quality

Barrels
can be used to store and transport 50 units of various fluids. Since they are solid objects, they can be used as an alternative to pipes, once
fluid handling
is researched. The barrels themselves are reusable once the fluids are drained.
Barrels stack in groups of 10. A single
cargo wagon
can hold 400 barrels, which gives a capacity of 20,000 units per cargo wagon – 30,000 fewer units than the capacity of a
fluid wagon
.
Empty barrels have a rocket capacity
of 200. Full barrels, regardless of fluid, have a rocket capacity
of 100. As such, a single rocket can carry 5000 units of any fluid which can be barrelled.

Empty barrels
Empty barrels
can be crafted. When barrels are emptied, the (required)
assembling machine
will also return an empty barrel.

Example of use
Barrels are useful in situations where pipes are not available or a bad option, such as oil production far away from your main factory, or when transporting fluids to another planet in
Space Age
. Barrels can be transported with a
belt transport system
or
railway
, by
logistic robots
, via
car
or
tank
, or in the
player
's inventory. A simple example with
transport belts

Notes
Despite being labelled as an intermediate product, making empty barrels and filling or emptying barrels cannot accept
productivity modules
.
Barrel filling and emptying recipes cannot accept
quality modules
.
History
0.16.8
:
Lowered barrel fluid capacity from 250 to 50. (So cargo wagon with barrels holds 20k and logistic robots are not too strong alternative to carrying fluids.)
Decreased barrelling crafting time from 1 second to 0.2 seconds.
0.15.0
:
Added automatic barreling support for all fluids.
0.9.0
:

are advanced and expensive capsules that, when thrown with the right mouse button, spawn five powerful Destroyer robots.
The Destroyer robots have infinite electrical energy and will follow the player, attacking any
enemies
that come within range, until they run out of health or their lifespans elapse.

Strategy
Follower robots will only loosely follow the player and are subject to inertia. This allows the player to 'swing' packs of defender/destroyer robots into enemy bases to damage enemy structures with less risk to himself. Launching
distractor capsules
into the enemy base beforehand, as well as using the speed of the
car
or
exoskeleton
can further reduce damage to the player.
Destroyers being spawned and following the player.
Count limit
The maximum number of active Destroyer robots is limited by the
follower robot count (research)
. While using follower robots, the number of robots in use will be visible in an icon to the right of the quick-bar. Hovering over the icon with the cursor will show the types of robots and the currently researched maximum.

Modular armor
offers a modest increase in acid resistance over its
predecessor
and a notable increase in explosion resistance, but its greatest bonus comes in the form of
equipment modules
. The Modular armor offers a 5×5 grid that can be customized with an assortment of modules for defense, support or attack. Right click on the armor to show the equipment grid.
Left clicking the equipped armor will pick it up and unequip it, eliminating its inventory bonus. If the player's inventory is too full to be contained without the extra inventory slots, removing the armor will fail with a message stating "Cannot remove armor. Insufficient inventory space if removed."

Productivity module 3
applies a
Productivity
bonus to items produced in a machine, allowing the machine to produce more items for the same inputs. It adds 10% productivity to the affected machine.
Productivity modules can generally only be used to make
intermediate products
. These are items that are used in other recipes and cannot directly be placed. For more information, see
Module#Productivity_module
. There are quite a few exceptions to this general rule.

The
Military science pack
is one of the four early game
science packs
, the other three being the
automation science pack
, the
logistic science pack
, and the
chemical science pack
.
It is used for
research
that allows the player to advance their military strength through the entire game, unlocking more bullet choices, gun choices, turrets, etc. It is the only type of science pack that is optional, in that it is not required to launch a rocket.

Ratio
The following shows the minimum ratio of assemblers/machines and items required to produce military science pack such that all number of assemblers/machines are whole numbers. Items per min is calculated using
assembling machine 3
with no
modules
or
beacons
and all assemblers running at full speed. The crafting of some intermediate products are not shown (due to the assumption that these items are available in large quantities within the factory). This table was produced using normal recipe difficulty.

Water canes
are part of the natural
terrain generation
in
Gleba
, found in marshes and wetlands. They are very thin stalks of
wood
growing out of shallow water.
Although cutting them down only provides a single unit of wood, they can be cut down very fast, allowing
players
to cut many down at once within seconds.

Metallic asteroid chunk
is a resource gathered by
asteroid collectors
and processed in
crushers
. It is the main source for
iron ore
, used to make
thruster oxidizer
, and later
copper ore
in space. It is dropped from metallic asteroids, which is the most common
asteroid
when traversing between the first 4 planets. It can also be used in asteroid reprocessing.
As they only stack of 1, it is recommended to use
belts
as buffers rather than using
cargo bays
.

Fixed: Replacing underground belt's end unearths items
Pipe to ground is up to 10 tiles long.
Disabled enemy spawn shift (but this might not be the cause for big biters in the beginning).
Express belts require lubricant (because they need to run extra smooth).
Changed the amount of wood in dry tree from 1 -> 4

Inserters can have arbitrary pickup and insert positions (this allows 90 degrees inserters).
Transport belt to ground max distance is now moddable (max_distance).
0.9.1
The hotfix mod
There are two bugs in the 0.9.1 that can make the game pretty much unplayable for some people. These are: the fast and express underground belts are not working properly (
http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2511
), the crude oil barrels cannot be emptied(
http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2484
). These will be fixed for the 0.9.2 however since they both can be fixed by changing the factorio data files we have made a small hotfix that solves the issue for now. However this hotfix doesn't solve the bug when transport belts to ground can be built one on top of each other (and so they get blocked as well).
The hotfix can be downloaded from here:
http://bit.ly/MPExrq
- It is basically a tiny factorio mod so just copy the zip file to your mods directory and you should be good to go.
Known issues
Existing saves might take a while (10-30 seconds) to load depending on the size. This is because of the adding-new-doodads migration.
Basic campaign and scenario pack are still broken.
Features
Tooltip with info of the armor equipment.
Capsules can be used in god mode now.
Bugfixes =
Fixed bug when blueprint in the second quickbar would corrupt the save (already corrupted saves can be loaded again).
Fixed bug where unloadable save was made when blueprint containing roboport/armor was as item on ground/held by inserter.
Fixed save loading bug when oil refinery/chemical plant with reset recipe was saved.
Fixed bug with stuck inserter when putting sulfur into chemical plant producing sulfur acid in some cases.
Structures now get repaired even when they are in the bigger (construction) distance from roboport.
Fixed that the alert icons weren't visible after resize in some cases.
Fixed that steam engine rotation was wrong in rotated blueprint.
Fixed double info in item tooltip.

Changes
Merged the second quickbar (researched by toolbelt) with the main quickbar (now it has 2 rows). The keyboard shortcuts apply to the top row. Rows can be rotated by a button or keyboard shortcut (default X).
Fixed transport belt to ground collision boxes, so they are more inserter friendly. It is even possible to insert into it.
Less controls in the new game dialog.
One of the two connected pipes to ground next to each other shows icon of fluid inside.
Very small quantities of fluid can be pushed away / destroyed by another fluid in the neighboring pipe. This helps for instance in situations with tiny fluid leftovers after pumping.
More doodads in the maps.
Finished crafting sound (tsss) is played only when a full non-intermediate recipe stack finishes crafting.
Balancing
Merged oil gathering and oil processing into one technology.
Barrel costs just 1 steel plate instead of 2 and can hold 25 liters of crude oil.
Added cracking recipes (heavy oil to light oil and light oil to petroleum gas).
Storage tank has 2.5 times bigger capacity (2500 lit-res) and takes longer to mine.
Increased basic-grenade splash area by 30%.
Smaller probabilities for spawning big worms close to the starting area.
Slightly more coal is generated.
0.9.0
Known issues!
Although we were able to spend some time with testing, so the most frequent bugs should be solved, we are quite sure there are more to be found. We altered almost every aspect of the game.
We also didn't have time to clear all the problems specified in the Bug reports thread (we solved just those that were most simple to solve for now)
Basic campaign and scenario pack are broken as new recipes and technologies are needed and not enabled in these.
Only a subset of the doodads is integrated into the world generation.
Saving a game with blueprint in second quick bar will result in a corrupted save. So please avoid having blueprints in the second quick bar. This will be fixed in the 0.9.1 and the already corrupted saves will be loadable again.
Features
Blueprints. Blueprint item allows the player to select the area that will be copied into the item. The player can customize the icons that will represent the blueprint. While building blueprints, player can rotate these, and they can also overlap with existing entities as long as they match.
Deconstruction tool. Allows player to order construction robots to deconstruct buildings in the selected area. When the buildings contain items (chests, transport belts etc.) construction robots first move these items out of it and place it into the logistics network.
Oil industry. Pumpjacks mine the crude oil from the oil spills. Oil refinery processes the crude oil to oil fractions. Chemical plant processes the oil fractions to useful products.
Added fluid storage tank.
Added electric onshore pump (can speed up the fluid or push the fluid against the slope).
Biomes. Gives more variation to the nature, tends to generate similar types of vegetation close together.
Logistic network condition for smart inserters. Takes the sum of all items in storage/provider chests into consideration.
Recipe GUI contains even recipes not craftable by player (their tooltip shows machines where they can be crafted).
Copying entity settings (replaces the old shift build functionality). Shift + left click sets the selected entity as a copy source, shift + right click applies the settings to selected entity.
Ghost buildings can be built (shift + right click) and mined individually.
Saves directory can contain custom sub directories. Added delete save button.
Game saves and mods are read / written natively to the zip files.
CTRL in the textfields including dev console (CTRL + left/right = jump word, CTRL + backspace = delete word, CTRL + up/down = home/end).
Roboports have separate logistic radius (now 25) and construction radius (now 50).
Player gets separate warning icon when building is destroyed.
Warning icons tooltip shows list of entities that are under attack/destroyed/attacking.
Highlight inventory slots that contains results of the recipe the player already have when he is hovering the recipe slot.
Added / updated sounds for player actions (building, mining buildings, crafting, inventory move, GUI click, etc.)
Optional ordering of items sub-categories into individual lines in the crafting window.
Graphics
New pipes graphics.
All not connected pipe connections have ending visualization.
New 10 types of trees that replace the outdated 2 types.
Doodads, small decorative objects that appear in the environment (grass chunks, trees, small bushes, rocks etc).
Area visualizations (for electric poles, roboports, beacons, mining drills) are displayed under the entities.
Roboports visualization density adds up only to a limit.
Pipes show the fluid inside in the alt mode.
Only every second pipe in the row has the window.
Nicer rail diagonals/turns on minimap.
Optimisations
Optimisation of the logistic network update - slow performance with many robots with cargo and no place to put it.
Optimisation of the electric network update by the factor of 5.
Optimisation of inserters update, inserters that have nothing to do are set to sleep and woke up when their target/source changes.
Turrets don't search for enemies when there are no enemies nearby.
Logistic network doesn't go through empty provider chests/satisfied requester chests any more, so they don't slow down the update.
Only chunks with changes are recharted, so the limit of 2 recharted chunks per ticks is applied only on chunk that actually changed, this allows to have much higher areas covered by radars.
Optimisation of the building electric poles by dragging (It could get slow for big networks).
Small optimisation of transport belt movement.
Balancing
Changed many existing recipes (science pack 2, science pack 3, advanced circuit, laser turret, car, diesel locomotive, logistic and construction robots, rocket, flamethrower ammo, defender capsules, most of the armor equipment, etc.)
Nerfed down productivity modules. Best module productivity bonus changed: 15->10, it has slow down factor, and its usage in assembling machines is limited to intermediate products.
Slightly more stone in the world.
Pipe to ground is made in pairs and is more expensive.
Fast/Express transport belt to ground is made from Basic/Fast transport belt to ground + gears so it can be upgraded.
Character logistic slots technology needs only red and green science packs.
Rail signals don't collide with player/car so it can run/walk over it.
Halved the radar electricity consumption.
Changes
Multiplied all energy values by the factor of 1000.
Optimised pipe/assembling machine/chest bounding boxes, so they obstruct the movement less.
The green color of night vision visualization is less dense.
Configurable key mapping for Lua console, "/" key no longer opens the console by default.
ESC (by default) closes the windows in the game as well.
Capsules (including the fish) are used by build action when they are in the cursor
By default the left mouse key builds and opens GUI and the right mouse key does mining.
Disabled loading of saves before 0.5.0 version (You can use version up to 0.6.4 to load any old saves and re-save them).
MiningDrill can be built only if there are some resources within its radius.
The world is slowly generated around the player up to big distance, so exploring should not matter regarding the existence of enemies.
Bugfixes
Modules are now transferred when fast replacing furnaces.
Electricity icon of laser turrets in ghost mode.
Fixed missing black text font borders in some of the texts.
Fixed crash when opening GUI in the ghost mode that is active in some of the challenge missions.
Fixed crash when player fed turret with ammo at the same moment it was destroyed.
Biters can no longer destroy the shipwreck in the 3rd new hope campaign (it is indestructible).
Fixed that the sound of walking to the left/right was played from the left/right side.
Fixed unloadable save when mod with logistic chest(s) was removed.
Inserter without power will not take stuff from the chest even when it's arm is above it already.
Fixed bug with biters disappearing in the peaceful mode.
Fixed stuck inserters when rail is nearby in some cases.
Fixed of wrong dropTarget of inserter that pointed to train wagon and was rotated.
Scripting
It is possible to change tiles from script using the game.settiles
It is possible to specify health of item.
Read access to electric pole/pipe neighbors.
Added connectneighbour method for electric pole.
Stricter rules for Lua scripts (no require outside mod path, no dofile function)
Modding
Recipes can have multiple and randomized products.
Both ingredients and products for the recipe can be items or fluids.
Fixed bug, that item on ground created by script ignored the count of the stack.
Added fluid_usage_per_tick and effectivity fields to the generator.
Zipped mods can be loaded.

Railway in the
official game trailer.
For the research see
Railway (research)
The Railway
is one of the main transport methods in Factorio. Although the installation of such a network can be complicated and requires a large amount of resources and space, it is faster and more efficient than
belts
and
robot logistics
, especially over large distances.
Railway construction, however, is not understood instantly. It takes some time to learn the basics, such as automating transportation. Learning how to manage and maintain the upkeep of a larger train network takes time and experience. Rails can be built on the ground, or can be - with the
Space Age
expansion - elevated with the help of a
rail ramp
and
rail supports
so that trains can travel over obstacles.

Infrastructure
To build a railway, tracks (also called rails) must be built for the train to ride on. Typically, this is done via the
rail planner
, but can also be done manually. Bear in mind that rails are placed on a two-tile grid, so a rail cannot be moved by only one tile.
Minimum manually operated railway
As a minimum, a manually operated railway has to consist of:
Rails
(tracks)
Locomotives
Locomotives can be entered and then manually operated by standing next to them and pressing the
ENTER
button.
Switches
There is no visual representation of a working switch, however, the rails will appear to merge. Using the rail planner, the player must place a
rail
overlapping an existing rail to form a switch. Switches are forks in tracks that allow a train to pick between two directional options.
The crossing of two straight tracks is not usable as a switch, as trains have a limited turning radius. They do, however, connect
signal blocks
which helps prevent collisions.
Parallel tracks do not interact with each other. However, before the changes to curved rails in
2.0.7
, switching from one track to the other can require extra resources if they are too close together; the track must turn away from the other parallel track and then turn back to it. This can create complicated networks of signals and, as such, one should generally not build parallel tracks unless they are spaced adequately. (Generally, 2 track widths apart works well)
An example of a safe railway crossing.

for the full-sized version of the image.
Crossing tracks
Be careful when crossing train tracks! Trains are one of the highest damaging entities in the game, and will kill most players instantly on contact.
A checklist of proper track-crossing etiquette:
Zoom out, so that you can see a train coming.
Look left, then right.
Check for signals nearby: If a
rail signal
suddenly jumps from green to red or green to yellow, a train is coming. Do not cross.
Avoid walking near the tracks, as you do not need to be fully on the tracks to get hit.
While it is possible to get into/out of a train while it is moving, a miss can cost your life. The sides of the train can still deal damage, as well as the player being able to slip between two rail cars.
Heavy
shields
can be used to reduce the damage taken. In extreme cases, it is possible to stop a train with your body. This will require several shield modules to not be instantly killed and will drain a large amount of the suit's energy.
All entities with health will take damage getting hit by a train, so take care not to leave a
car
or
tank
on the tracks. However, this includes hostile forces!
Trains far from a
train stop
will be traveling at (near) max speed, so take extra precaution when crossing and zoom out further. Trains near a
train stop
or signal will slow down to stop and will be traveling slower. Trains of different configurations will also move slower or faster.
A safe railroad crossing like the example shown in the picture can be built. This works by restricting access to the tracks when an oncoming train has the rails reserved. When the player is on the rails, the signals are reserved by the
circuit network
, and the train must stop and wait until the player leaves the tracks. When a player is inside the area crossing the tracks, the train gates are closed so the player can't get on the tracks outside the crossing. This is to completely ensure a safe crossing and is often used on servers.
Trains
Train components:
| Locomotive | Cargo wagon | Fluid wagon | Artillery wagon |
| ---------- | ----------- | ----------- | --------------- |
Placing a
Cargo wagon
so it is attached to the train.
A train consists of at least one locomotive.
Trains can have more than one locomotive and any number of
wagons
.
Locomotives can be
manually
driven forwards or backwards, however, they are generally slower going backwards. The left and right movement keys are used to change direction at switches.
Trains can only drive forwards automatically. An automatic train can drive forwards and backwards when two locomotives facing different directions are connected to the train.
A train needs
fuel
to drive. Fuel can be added by inserters when the train is in manual mode or parked at a station, not when waiting at a signal or standing in automatic mode.
The locomotives' inventory is only used for
fuel
. To transport items or fluids
cargo wagons
and/or
fluid wagons
have to be attached to the train. To attach rolling stock, whether a wagon or a locomotive, the player may prepare to place one near an existing train, where a green graphic will show the player that the stock will be attached, showing a connection between the train and the new stock. Alternatively, the player may manually connect rolling stock to trains with the rolling stock connect key, if the cargo wagon is placed far away from a train. Rolling stock can likewise be disconnected with the rolling stock disconnect key.
Stations
A very minimal train station.
Train stations are the only place where trains can be loaded or unloaded when they are in automatic mode. Cargo wagons can be filled or emptied by up to twelve adjacent
inserters
(six on each side). Inserters can also be used to insert fuel into locomotives.
Pumps
are used to transfer fluid into and out of fluid wagons, only three pumps can attach to one fluid wagon at once.
Train stations are usually created by placing a
train stop
. Train stops must be on the right-hand side of the track. However, it is also possible to create a temporary train station by opening a locomotive's GUI and using
CTRL
+
Left mouse button
near a rail in the minimap in the GUI or by entering a locomotive and using
CTRL
+
Left mouse button
near a rail on the world map. This will create a station without requiring a train stop. The temporary train station has a default wait condition of 5 seconds and is removed from the schedule once the train leaves the station.
Signals
| Rail signal | Rail chain signal |
| ----------- | ----------------- |
Rail signals are used to employ multiple trains automatically without the danger of trains crashing into each other. Rail signals split the network into blocks and ensure that only one train can be in every block at any time. Note that driving a train manually ignores all signals, so it is possible for automatic trains to crash into the player if the player ignores red/yellow signals. Always beware of automatic trains and give them the right of way.
The
train signals tutorial
contains an in-depth explanation of rail signals, blocks and deadlocks.
Basic signaling rules
There can only be one train in a block at any time. A train spanning multiple blocks occupies them all.
A red signal means that the following block is occupied by a train.
A yellow signal means that a train is approaching and already has the approval to enter the following block.
Rail signals
separate a new block and reflect its state: green - free, yellow - reserved, red - occupied
Rail chain signals
separate a new block and reflect the state of the next signal(s): see above, blue - at least one of the paths is blocked, but not all
A train can only pass a signal on the right of the track, or if there is a signal on both sides on the same rail segment. Of course, manual driving overrides this.
Automated transport
The wait condition tab in the locomotive's GUI.
Trains set on "Automatic" choose their destination stop and route on departure, and after waiting at a chain signal for five seconds, and when their destination stop disables itself by circuit condition. They choose the shortest route using a
path finding algorithm
that will get them to an enabled train stop with the right name, taking penalties for any apparent-at-the-time delays into account. If no such train stop exists they will skip the stop and go on to the next.
This section covers items used to make trains automatically transport items between stations. The player should be familiar with creating a rail system.
First, the player has to set up a rail system with at least two train stops, which are placed on the right-hand side of the expected train arrival direction. By hovering over the train stop with the mouse you see the positions of the vehicles for better setting up the train station (including (un)loading machinery, and refueling/repair installations).
When you set up the train schedule (see below) and fuel the train, you can start the train on its schedule by switching from manual to automatic driving mode.
Train schedule
The player can set up a list of train stations in the left locomotive's GUI. The train will route to stops in the given order, if it's at the end it will continue with the first. Stations can be added by clicking "Add station" in the GUI. A pop-up appears with a list of all stop names. If one is selected, another button appears which allows selecting a wait condition from a pop-up list. Furthermore, the map in the right part of the GUI can be used to add stations to the schedule by using
SHIFT
+
Left mouse button
on a station or using
CTRL
+
Left mouse button
near a rail in the map to create a temporary train station. These actions can also be performed on the world map when the player is sitting inside the train.
Wait conditions are used to tell the train when to leave the station. There are 15 types of wait conditions:
Circuit condition
– The train stop is connectable to the
circuit network
, so the signals can used for wait conditions.
Empty cargo
– All inventories of the train are empty. Does not include fuel inventories.
Fluid count
– The train (all fluid wagons summed) contains a specific amount of a certain fluid.
Fuel (all locomotives)
- All locomotives in the train collectively contain a specific amount of fuel
Fuel (any locomotive)
- Any one locomotive contains a specific amount of fuel
Full cargo
- All inventories of the train are full. Does not include fuel inventories
Full fuel
- All fuel inventories are full. Does not include cargo or fluid inventories
Has cargo
- Cargo or fluid inventories contain items.
Inactivity
– No items were added or removed for the specified amount of seconds.
Item count
– The train (all cargoes summed) contains a specific amount of a certain item. Does not include fuel inventories.
Passenger present
- At least one
player
is inside any part of the train.
Passenger not present
- No players are inside any part of the train.
Station is full
- A specified stop is full, according to its set train limit. If the stop has no train limit set, this condition will
not
be met.
Station is not full
- A specified stop is not full, according to its set train limit. If the stop has no train limit set, this condition
will
be met.
Time passed
It is also possible to set no wait condition, this causes the train to simply pass by the station without stopping.
Hereafter the word "term" is used to describe
one
type of wait condition, and the words "wait condition" are used to describe the whole set of terms (it turns a bit into maths).
If more than one term is added, it is possible to change the connection of those using the logical operators AND and OR. An AND condition will result in true if all terms are true. An OR condition will return true if at least one of the terms is true.
When mixing AND and OR terms, the logic is grouped by the OR terms. When evaluating the wait condition, the first term is evaluated along with all AND terms immediately following up to but excluding the next occurring OR term. If they all evaluate true, the wait condition evaluates true. Otherwise, evaluation continues with that next occurring OR term and all AND terms immediately following it, up to the next OR term. This continues until either an OR group evaluates true and the wait condition is satisfied, or all terms have been checked.
Examples
The train group GUI. There are 2 trains in "Group A" and 1 train in "Group B"
Expand for examples
Wait until full, up to 30 seconds:
Full cargo inventory
OR 30 seconds passed
Wait until cargo full,
or
circuit condition Oil > 3000:
Full cargo inventory
OR Circuit condition - Oil > 3000
Wait until empty,
and
30 seconds passed,
and
5 seconds of inactivity:
Empty cargo inventory
AND 30 seconds passed
AND 5 seconds of inactivity
Wait until iron ore is low,
or
copper ore is low
and
at least 30 seconds passed:
Cargo: Iron ore < 500
AND 30 seconds passed
OR Cargo: Copper ore < 500
AND 30 seconds passed
Factorio's wait condition logic is read as disjunctive normal form (
DNF
), and so this last example is processed as (note the parenthesis):
((Cargo: Iron ore < 500 AND 30 seconds passed) OR (Cargo: Copper ore < 500 AND 30 seconds passed))
Which is the same as this:
((Cargo: Iron ore < 500 OR Cargo: Copper ore < 500) AND 30 seconds passed)
Unfortunately, there is no way to write that shorter form in the current UI.
Train groups
Trains are able to be assigned to a group. Selecting the small edit icon next to "no group assigned" will bring up the existing groups in the current world. One can select a group for the train to join, or create a new one. Editing the schedule of one train will change the schedules of all trains in the same group.
Schedule interrupts
The Edit Interrupt GUI.
Schedule interrupts allow a locomotive to override its current schedule when a certain condition is met. Selecting "Add interrupt" in the locomotive's GUI will bring up a list of existing interrupts in the current world. One can be selected from the list, or typing in a name will create a new one. Creating one will add it to the locomotive and all locomotives in the current locomotive group.
To work, an interrupt requires two parts: a condition and a target station. When a condition is met, the interrupt will activate and insert the target station as a temporary stop in the locomotive's schedule. The locomotive will route to the target station and wait there until the specified wait condition is met, at which point it will leave and resume its original schedule.
An interrupt can be triggered on many of the same conditions as waiting at a stop, along with some new conditions:
At specified station
- The train is waiting at a specific stop
Destination full or no path
- The train's next stop is full, according to its train limit; or the train cannot physically reach its next station
Not at specified station
- The train is stopped somewhere other than the specific stop
Multiple trains can have the same interrupt regardless of whether they are in the same locomotive group or not. Editing an interrupt will change it for all trains which have the interrupt in their system.
Interrupts can be reordered within the locomotive's GUI like normal stops. If a train has multiple interrupt conditions true at the same time, it will prioritize interrupts that are higher on the list.
Wildcard Interrupts
The four wildcard signals: Item, Fuel, Fluid, & Signal.
Within interrupts, trains have access to four special "wildcard" signals located within the Unsorted tab, which are special
logic signals
that can only be used within interrupts. Wildcard signals come in four types: item, fuel, fluid, and signal. When used as a condition to trigger an interrupt, each one looks at a specific inventory within the train and will replace itself with the signal of the first item it finds. For example, if an interrupt is set to trigger if an item parameter is over 50, and 51
iron gear wheels
are placed into a cargo wagon, the interrupt will trigger as if the condition was looking for over 50 iron gears. Item, fluid, and fuel wildcards each look at a specific inventory:
cargo
and
artillery wagons
,
fluid wagons
, and
locomotives
, respectively.
When used solely as a condition, wildcards act otherwise identically to the
anything
logic signal. What makes them special is their function when used in both the condition and the target.
Wildcards will also replace themselves with any
rich text
icons within the names of
train stops
. Instead of selecting a target stop from the list, instead click on the "icon" button next to the green confirm button and select the same type of wildcard as used in the condition. Then, type the name of the station. If the stop has a matching icon in its name, then the train will match the item it contains with that icon, and select that stop as the destination.
The final wildcard, Signal parameter, checks against any signals passed to the train while parked at a train stop. When combined with a signal parameter for a target station, this can make the train go to a stop which has an icon in its name matching the signal it received from the station. When combined with matching the target station based on its contents, this can be utilized to create a generic train system which can select its destination based on the item it receives.
Troubleshooting
Below are some things to verify if a rail system or train is not working.
Is the train fueled? Ensure that the locomotive has
fuel
of some kind.
Misplaced or non-functional switches? Ensure that the train can plan a path through the switches.
Another train on the same
block
? Make sure the path of the train is unobstructed.
Train stops placed correctly? Make sure that the yellow arrows when hovering on the stop point towards the end or exit of the stop.
Is the train allowed to enter signals from the right direction? Are the signals set correctly?
If a track is supposed to be two-way, the rail signals should be opposite each other. You can verify they match up by hovering the cursor over one. For a matched pair, it will show the other.
No path
When trains cannot reach the target, a "no path" symbol pops up over the locomotive. Check:
Can the train reach its current destination by
only driving forward
? Build turning slopes or place a locomotive at both ends of a train!
Are the train stops standing in the right direction? Train stops must be on the right-hand side of the track (from the forward-facing locomotive's perspective). If the train is traveling south, the stop must be on the west side of the track.
If you use rail signals, check that the signals are all allowing traffic in the correct direction.
Check for interruptions in the train tracks, drive to the station manually to check there are no rail parts missing. Especially near junctions, these can be hard to spot if missing.
If you are still having problems, consider:
Driving the train manually, and as you pass each switch, try switching to automatic. When it works, you will know the rough area of the problem.
A pictorial summary of typical problems
.
Interrupts
When a train is about to leave the last station in an interrupt's schedule, there is no inherent mechanism which prevents the same interrupt from re-triggering. Many interrupt conditions naturally prevent retriggering by the nature of their condition. A wildcard interrupt for unloading cargo cannot trigger if the train has no cargo. Other conditions may retrigger if something in the base has malfunctioned. For example, a refueling interrupt should only trigger when fuel is low. But if the train is at the fuel station, wants to leave, and still has low fuel, then either there is no inserter to load fuel or the refueling station has run out of fuel.
But there can be cases where the conditions for a trigger's desired conditions can still happen after executing the interrupt's schedule.
To force the train to always choose a station with a different name, add "Not at specified station" to the interrupt conditions, specifying the same target station. This way, the train will be forced to pick a different interrupt, or travel to a station in its main schedule.
If the train should travel to a different station of the same name, circuit logic can be used to disable the current station and lower its priority, as well as adding "Station is not full" to the interrupt condition. Note that only disabling the station is not enough to prevent this issue, the train will only choose a different destination with the same name if it has a higher priority. Once there are no other valid stations with the same name (i.e. all of them are disabled, so there is no higher-priority station), the "Station is not full" condition will prevent the train from getting stuck.
Elevated Rails
A simple bridge using elevated rails.
Space Age
expansion exclusive feature.
Elevated rails come in a separate mod which can be enabled independently of Space Age. They come as two new buildings:
rail ramp
and
rail support
. Ramps and supports are the only items in the game able to be built in the oceans of
Nauvis
. When playing with Space Age itself, elevated rails become an important part of the game, as they are critical to bridging the oil oceans of
Fulgora
and the lava rivers of
Vulcanus
, as well as easily crossing the vast watery landscape on
Gleba
.
Elevated rails can be built using the
rail planner
. Pressing
G
will switch levels, and attempt to build a ramp up or down, if the player has one in their inventory. While holding
SHIFT
and targeting a section of rail on the opposite level, the rail planner will automatically place any ramps and/or supports necessary to reach that destination. A rail support must be placed every 16 straight tiles. Disassembling a support or ramp will automatically disassemble any rails which rely on that support.
Players and
enemies
cannot walk on elevated rail. A player can enter and exit the train if it is elevated as normal, and will be teleported to the ground. If the player attempts to exit while over water or lava, nothing will happen. Both types of rail signals can be placed on elevated rail, but not train stops.
Certain buildings are too tall to be placed underneath elevated rails:
Big electric pole
Cargo landing pad
Oil refinery
Roboport
Rocket silo
Agricultural tower
Cargo bay
Lightning rod
Lightning collector

Carbon
is a resource added in
Space Age
. It is an intermediate product that takes a variety of roles across different surfaces, and when present, it is often critical to a core process in the new environment.
In
space
, carbon is created by
crushers
processing
carbonic asteroid chunks
, and is used in both recipes for
thruster fuel
.
On
Vulcanus
, it is mainly crafted from
coal
and
sulfuric acid
, but can also be found when destroying
ashland trees
. It is an ingredient in
tungsten carbide
.
On
Gleba
, it is made from
spoilage
in
biochambers
. It is an ingredient in
carbon fiber
.
Carbon is also useful in
coal synthesis
. As neither Gleba nor space platforms have natural access to coal, synthesizing it is the only way to produce
explosives
.

Jellystem
is a plant which grows naturally on
Gleba
. It is the primary source of
jellynut
. It can be harvested and planted by hand or by an
agricultural tower
. The amount of jellynuts which can be gained per harvest is equal to half of its current growth percentage. Since it takes 300 seconds (5 minutes) to fully grow, each plant produces an average of 0.1667 jellynut per second. A
biochamber
with no modules can process 2 jellynuts per second, meaning each biochamber can fully process 12 jellystems.
Harvesting the plant produces 15 spores. If the plant is destroyed (either by shooting it or by running it over with a
car
or
tank
) then it will not generate spores.

Pollution | Pollution - Factorio Wiki | [] | Pollution - Factorio Wiki

Example of in-game pollution (red squares) in the map
Pollution tab in the production GUI.
Pollution is represented as an abstract "cloud", updated
per chunk
every 64
ticks
(which is 4 ticks more than a game-second). It is visible on the map if the "pollution" setting is on, and appears as a blocky red cloud.
It is produced by many buildings involved in processing items and spreads outwards at a steady rate.
The
evolution factor
is not increased by the spreading/absorbed pollution, but by the pollution produced by all the player's
machinery
at every tick. This means that no matter how hard the player tries to contain the pollution,
enemies
will still evolve at the same rate. They just won't attack the player as frequently. The pollution cloud is used to trigger biter attacks and determines the size of the attacks.
Pollution settings can be changed via
map generation
settings, or can be disabled entirely.

Pollution spread
As soon as a chunk has reached 15.0 pollution it starts spreading in all four cardinal directions at a rate of 2% per 64 ticks. Pollution can generate new chunks if it needs to spread to them.
For example, a chunk with 400.0 pollution and 4 adjacent chunks with 100.0 pollution each, raises the pollution in all adjacent chunks by 8.0 while reducing its own pollution by 32.0. But every one of the 4 surrounding spreads 2.0 pollution "back" to the center chunk, so it only loses 24.0 +
absorbed value
.
Pollution dissipation
Every
chunk
(32x32) of map slowly reduces the pollution it covers (See
#Chunks
). So the more the pollution spreads, the more is absorbed.
Trees
also absorb some pollution (See
#Trees
).
Spawners
absorb a great amount of pollution, and use this to assign enemies to attacks.
Native life
Pollution attracts
biters
to the Player's factory. Biters who find themselves in a polluted area will attempt to reach the source of pollution and destroy it. Any
water
near the source of pollution will turn green, which is a visual-only effect. The effect can be turned off by disabling animated water in the graphics settings.
If a chunk's pollution is greater than 20, each enemy spawner absorbs 20 + 0.01 * [chunk's pollution] every 64 ticks, otherwise it absorbs 3 times the amount of pollution needed for the most expensive unit it can spawn for the current evolution factor.
Higher pollution values decrease the time it takes for biters to join the attack force. After a certain amount of pollution is absorbed the spawner sends one of its biters/spitters to a rendezvous point. Every 1 to 10 minutes (random) the mustered biters launch an attack. If not all biters have arrived at the rendezvous point by that time, they will wait up to an additional 2 minutes for stragglers.
This also applies to
pentapods
on
Gleba
.
Required pollution to add an additional biter/spitter to the attack wave:
| Type | Pollution |
| ---------------- | --------- |
| Small biter | 4 |
| Medium biter | 20 |
| Big biter | 80 |
| Behemoth biter | 400 |
| Small spitter | 4 |
| Medium spitter | 12 |
| Big spitter | 30 |
| Behemoth spitter | 200 |
Modules
Modules
that list "+x% pollution" increase pollution multiplier, not a flat pollution rate. Final pollution value is (pollution multiplier * energy usage multiplier * base pollution), meaning heavily boosted buildings are likely to account for most of the pollution produced in a factory.

De-polluters
Spawners
Every 64 ticks, spawners absorb pollution until they have absorbed more than 3 times the amount needed to send the
most expensive unit
at the current evolution level.
If they have not absorbed more than that threshold, they will absorb 20 + 0.01 * [chunk's pollution] and check the threshold again.
Note that absorbing pollution is not for spawning biters, but for sending biters to an attack group. Spawners will spawn enemies regardless of pollution absorption until they reach their spawn limit.
Chunks
Every chunk has a natural absorption rate per second which is determined by the sum of the pollution absorption of its floor tiles.

If the total pollution in a chunk is above 60 units, once per second some of the trees in that chunk each have a chance to either lose one stage of leaves or have their leaves become one stage more gray. Regardless of whether the tree loses leaves or gets grayer, 10 pollution are absorbed by the tree.
A tree stops losing leaves/becoming more gray once the sum of its gray percentage and its leaves lost percentage is above 120%. 50% of trees stop their leaf progression one stage earlier. As the grayness and leaf stage are then locked for that tree forever, it is possible for trees to keep some leaves in heavily polluted chunks but in turn be very gray, or the other way around.
The less dense the leaves, the slower the tree absorbs pollution, however tree grayness does not affect pollution absorption.
| Object | Stage | Pollution per second |
| -------------------------- | -------------------- | -------------------- |
| Tree, red tree, brown tree | 0 (Max leaf density) | -0.001 |
| 1 | -0.00067 | |
| 2 | -0.00033 | |
| 3 (Min leaf density) | 0 | |
| Dead dry hairy tree | No stages | -0.0001 |
| Dead gray trunk | No stages | -0.0001 |
| Dead tree - desert | No stages | -0.0001 |
| Dry hairy tree | No stages | -0.0001 |
| Dry tree | No stages | -0.0001 |
Biochambers
The
biochamber
"generates" negative pollution, at a base rate of -1 per minute. This effectively means that the building removes pollution while active.
This pollution value works like any other building, including how it scales with energy consumption. That is, if a module affects its energy consumption, the pollution is proportionately higher as well. However, because the base rate is negative, the Biochamber "generates" more negative pollution.
Productivity modules
and their direct pollution increase work in a similar way, boosting the negative pollution of the building even more.
Spores
Spores are a unique form of pollution generated on Gleba. They are made when
yumako trees
or
jellystems
are harvested (not destroyed). Spores do not attract biters, but rather attract pentapods. Spores are consumed by most tiles. They are displayed as green squares on the map. All machines
do not
make spores, with the only exception being the
agricultural tower
.
Spores

| Yumako tree | 15 | Per harvest |
| Jellystem | 15 | Per harvest |

Enemies
are creatures that want to
harm
the
player
. They are the native inhabitants of the extraterrestrial worlds on which the player is operating. Enemies show up on the map as red dots.
On
Nauvis
, the enemies are arthropods which live in organic nests. They are encountered in three species: Biters, Spitters, and Worms (though the nickname "Biters" is often used collectively for all of them).
More enemies can be encountered on other planets with the
Space Age
expansion. On the planet
Gleba
, there are pentapods which come in three variants: Wrigglers, Strafers, and Stompers. On the planet
Vulcanus
, there are the Demolishers.
Each species comes in a range of sizes, where larger specimens have more health and do more damage.

Creatures
Biters
Biters are one of two main antagonists in the base game. They come in four sizes: small, medium, big and behemoth. In the beginning of a game, there will only be the small ones. With increasing
pollution
, they will become bigger, related to the enemy's
evolution
. As common sense may suggest, their method of attack is a straightforward charge to "bite" things.

Spitters
Spitters
are much like
biters
and only appear slightly later on in the game as the evolution factor increases. Their main difference from biters is their ranged attack. Using predictive aiming, they spit a stream of acid at enemies which leaves behind a puddle of acid where it hits the ground. Due to the spitters' predictive aiming, the acid stream can be dodged by suddenly changing walking directions or standing still.
[1]
Both the stream and the puddle of acid deal damage over time and slow down players and vehicles. Most entities of the game have a much lower resistance to acid than other damage types (including
turrets
and
armor
), so spitters are effectively more potent against the player and their factories. Their behavior and size classification are the same as with biters, but their health is universally lower and they are resistant exclusively against explosives, with no physical resistance.

Worms
The Worms are natural allies of biters and spitters and will attack the player if they get close enough with an attack similar to spitters'. They act like static
turrets
and will not follow attackers. They rely on high damage, great range and splash damage to keep the player away from the worms and the nests they protect, but either one of these advantages can be overcome. Unlike other enemies, they are also highly resistant to fire. They will spit acid at the player, which can also leave acidic puddles on the ground that can still damage players and vehicles, as well as slow them both down and leave a brief acidic, damaging effect for a few seconds. However, placed buildings and tiles are unaffected by the acid puddles, but still take damage normally by the acid projectile.
Worms come in 4 sizes, their power increasing with size. Like biters and spitters, behemoth, big and medium worms spawning is influenced by the evolution factor. Worms are only created during enemy expansion when a certain evolution factor requirement is fulfilled. This is 0.3 for the medium worm, 0.5 for the big worm and 0.9 for the behemoth worm. Below these evolution factors, worms can only be created by the map generation. In map generation, the game restricts higher tier worms behind the distance from the starting point. The further away the player goes from the starting area, the stronger the worms become.

Wrigglers
Wrigglers are the biter equivalents of the planet Gleba, as they are standard melee enemies. True to their name, they flail and squirm their digits to move around and attack. Much like how biters and spitters spawn from nests, wrigglers spawn from egg rafts. Destroying egg rafts will spawn a group of more premature wrigglers, which are wrigglers that slowly lose health over time until they die. Strafers can launch flying versions of premature wrigglers at their target.
Killing strafers and stompers can summon even more premature wrigglers. The wrigglers that spawn from the corpses of strafers and stompers will match the size of the larger enemy that was killed. For example, killing a small strafer or stomper will spawn small premature wriggers, while killing a medium strafer or stomper will spawn medium premature wrigglers.

Strafers
Native to the planet Gleba, strafers are large yet scrawny five-legged pentapod creatures with the unique behavior of constantly circling around players while attacking them, rather than making a beeline straight for the player, unlike any other type of enemy in the game. They will fire flying premature wrigglers toward the player, essentially adding more enemies to the fight.

Stompers
Native to the planet Gleba, stompers are extremely large, five-legged pentapod creatures with limbs that look similar to a starfish, and seem to have natural, jagged exoskeleton armor that provides high resistances to many types of damage. They are very powerful melee enemies that use their brute force to attack
players
by simply stomping toward them, while spitting a close-ranged acid that slows down players and
Vehicles
. Their large size and high damage can destroy buildings instantly. They will spawn premature wrigglers upon death.

Demolishers
Native to the planet Vulcanus, demolishers are horrendously large worm-like creatures that roam across the land and lava. Each individual demolisher patrols a defined territory, and building structures in their territory will disturb them and cause them to attack.
Demolishers have three types of offense. On physical contact they do high damage to the player, and instantly destroy buildings and cliffs. They release a smoke cloud that slows the player and damages any nearby bots. And at range, they cause explosions to erupt from the ground, Due to their high damage resistances and extremely fast health regeneration, killing them requires advanced and upgraded weaponry, or massive quantities of bullets. They are completely immune to the
slowdown capsule's
effect.
Once killed, they leave behind remains similar to that of black volcanic rock, which contain
tungsten ore
.

Nests
Nests in the wild will have their max health increase with evolution factor exponentially, up to 10 times their starting health.
Biter and spitter nests can be captured by firing a
capture bot rocket
from a
rocket launcher
at a nest. After the nest is captured, it must be given
bioflux
to maintain and continuously create
biter eggs
. If the nest is not maintained, it will slowly lose 1 health per second, but when fed, it will gain 1 health per second.

Expansions
Every 4-60 minutes, a group of 5-20 biters/spitters will leave their base to create a new base which will consist of as many worms/nests as there are members in the group. This group will search for a suitable spot that's 3-7 chunks away from existing bases. The interval between enemy expansions is global, and the higher enemy evolution, the shorter the interval is on average. Furthermore, with higher evolution, the groups are bigger on average.
Once they have found a suitable spot, each biter/spitter in the group dies and forms a new nest or worm. Forming a new nest or worm will destroy anything that is in the way, which can include members of the expansion group. There is a delay between each member sacrificing itself for to create a worm/nest, so creating the new base from the expansion group can take quite a long time, depending on the group size. Medium worms are only formed if the current evolution is higher than 0.3, big worms only if the current evolution is higher than 0.5 and behemoth worms are only formed if current evolution is higher than 0.9. The game randomly chooses whether to form a new biter nest, spitter nest, small worm, or bigger worm if the evolution factor is high enough.
[2]
Expansions on
Gleba
function mostly similar, except that pentapods only create spawners in marshes, and will
never
create nests on other tiles.
Defense
"Kills" tab on the
production statistics
screen.
Nests spawn biters and spitters freely. However, biters and spitters will only aggressively engage the player's factory if the pollution cloud of the factory reaches a nest because pollution is consumed to send biters or spitters to join the next attack. Every 1 to 10 minutes (random) the mustered biters launch an attack. If not all biters have arrived at the rendezvous point by that time, they will wait up to an additional 2 minutes for stragglers. The attack then proceeds to their target over the shortest path possible, accounting for terrain, but not for player entities that could pose an obstacle (like
walls
).
If there is a clear path somewhere around those obstacles, the biters will attempt to go around. If there is no clear passage or a clear passage would mean deviating too far from the original course, the biters will attack whatever is in their way to go through. This can be exploited to an extent; creating mazes at regular intervals along a barrier can direct the biters through a gauntlet not dissimilar to tower defense.
However, if a biter comes in proximity of a
military unit or structure
, it will prioritize these and attempt to immediately attack them instead, again trying to reach the new target over the shortest possible path with no too great detours, if possible.
Evolution
Spawn chances of biters from biter spawners by evolution factor.
Spawn chances of spitters from spitter spawners by evolution factor.
Weight graph of both spawners by evolution factor. The values shown are primarily for indicating when certain types start and stop spawning, for actual chances refer to the tables or other charts.
The evolution factor is a global variable that determines what kind of biters will be spawned. You can check the variable in the dev console via the following command (does not disable achievements):
/evolution
The evolution factor goes from 0 (not evolved at all) to 1 (maximal evolution). The evolution factor can only increase.
This command also provides percentages for the three sources; each one is the percent of the (unsquashed) total evolution that is contributed by that source.
Besides choosing what kind of biter will be spawned, the evolution factor also influences the spawning interval. This interval (
spawning_cooldown
in the
enemy-spawner
definition) is interpolated between 360 (0 evolution) and 150 (1 evolution) game ticks (= 6 to 2.5 seconds).
Methods of increasing
The evolution factor is increased by three kinds of events:
The passage of time very slightly increases the evolution factor.
The global
pollution production
increases the evolution factor.
Destroying
nests
significantly increases the evolution factor.
The default settings are:
| Source per | Variable inenemy_evolution | Evolution increase | Pollution equivalent |
| ----------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------ | -------------------- |
| Second | time_factor | 0.000004 | 267/minute |
| Destroyed enemy spawner | destroy_factor | 0.002 | 2222 |
| 1 Pollution unit | pollution_factor | 0.0000009 | 1 |
Note that all spawners (not worms) generate the same amount of evolution when destroyed.
These values can be set during
world generation
: the values in the dialog box are multiplied by 10^-7 for time and pollution, and 10^-5 for spawner destruction. In game, they can be found in
game.map_settings.enemy_evolution
, though checking or modifying them is considered using cheats.
Pollution production is the total pollution produced by
buildings
, not the pollution spreading on the map, so it is not reduced by trees or other absorbers.
e.g. : 10 boilers produce 300 pollution in one minute, raising the evolution factor by around 0.00027 in that minute.
After totaling up all the evolution from these sources, this quantity is squashed to fit in the range
[0, 1)
by applying
evolution_factor = total_evolution / (1 + total_evolution)
.
Equivalently, marginal increases in evolution are reduced by multiplying the increase by
(1 - evolution_factor)²
. So for instance destroying enemy spawners in the beginning of the game results in increase of evolution factor by 0.002 while doing this when the evolution factor is 0.5 the increase is only 0.0005.
This also means that the evolution factor approaches 1 asymptotically - generally, increases past 0.9 or so are
very
slow and the number never actually reaches 1.0.
| Evolution factor | Pollution equivalent | Appearance |
| ---------------- | -------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| 10% | 123k | |
| 20% | 278k | Medium Biter |
| 25% | 370k | Small Spitter |
| 30% | 476k | |
| 40% | 741k | Medium Spitter |
| 50% | 1.111M | Big Biter, Big Spitter |
| 60% | 1.667M | |
| 70% | 2.592M | |
| 80% | 4.444M | |
| 90% | 10M | Behemoth Biter, Behemoth Spitter |
| 95% | 21M | |
| 99% | 110M | |
Spawn chances by evolution factor
The probability charts show the chances of each type of biter/spitter for each spawner at all evolution levels.
Advanced: Evolution factor components and computation
This section has charts plotting the individual evolution factor components and discusses possibilities for manually estimating the evolution factor.
1. Single-component evolution factor increase with time
2. Single-component evolution factor increase with destroyed spawners
3. Single-component evolution factor increase with pollution
Notes
Data from version 1.1.50.
All charts end at approximately an evolution factor of 0.90.
The calculation steps for time and spawner kills match those used by the game, so these charts should be accurate. The pollution chart assumes a pollution production of 1000 units per second, and due to the recursive nature of the chart values will slightly diverge at different pollution rates. The effect of this is negligible for any reasonable amount pollution production, however.
Given that the game reports the actual evolution factor (console:
/evolution
) whenever the player wishes, these charts are intended primarily to help estimate the impact of planned base expansions and similar activities on the evolution factor's future development.
Comments
These charts (click to enlarge) represent the situation where each evolution factor component (time, pollution, destroyed spawners) is the
only
component contributing to the evolution factor in that entire game. They are therefore
not realistic
, as in a typical game all three components will contribute, some at varying times and intensities.
Because of how contributions to the evolution factor (EF) are calculated (multiplied by
(1 - current EF)
), it is
not
possible to simply add the values indicated by these charts for a game's time passed, pollution generated, and / or spawners destroyed so far to retrieve the total evolution factor.
For example, if 24 hours have passed (single-component EF =~ 0.25), 200,000 pollution units were released (single-component EF =~ 0.15), and 400 spawners were destroyed (single-component EF =~ 0.45), the actual evolution factor will
not
be (0.25 + 0.15 + 0.45 =) ~0.85.
However, the evolution factor will always be
less
than the sum of all individual components as indicated by these charts, and
at least
as high as the highest individual component. Thus, using the values from above, the EF will be
at least
0.35 and
less than
0.85. A smarter approach is required to compute the current evolution factor.
Individual components
The individual components of evolution can be approximated from
/evolution
:
Given the evolution factor, the unsquashed evolution is
unsquashed = evolution_factor / (1 - evolution_factor)
. Multiply this by the percentage for a given component to get its approximate unsquashed contribution. Of course, total pollution and spawner kills can also be found on the
production statistics
screen, and time passed can be found using the
/time
command, so it's not fully necessary.
The actual factors can be found in
game.forces.enemy.evolution_factor_by_time
,
...evolution_factor_by_killing_spawners
, and
...evolution_factor_by_pollution
, if you don't mind disabling achievements.
Trivia
Despite their drastically different origins, enemies from different planets will always act as allies against the player. They will even reside around each other's nests when not attacking players, even if the type of nest does not match that of the residing creature. Even demolishers will circle around nests without harming or destroying them. Since enemies only spawn on their respective planets, this is not normally seen in gameplay, unless these creatures are placed near each other in the
map editor
.
Demolishers
were originally designed for
Fulgora
, but was later moved to
Vulcanus
because it was too similar to the
Dune Franchise
.

When editing blueprint: Added a way to specify relative grid position for blueprint that is snapping to absolute grid. Blueprint preview rendering box is updated based on selected grid size and position.
Inventory transfer works on empty equipment grid slot the same as on empty inventory slot (moves all).
Equipment can be placed by moving.
Cursor replenishes when placing into the equipment grid the same way as when building in world.
Spidertron item shows its color.
Added a way to reset spidertron remote.

Changed collision mask 'layer-12' to 'transport-belt-layer'.
Changed loader to only connect to the front belt, not from side. This is to fix internal problems related to modded loaders with custom sizes and side loading of it.
Implemented NoiseExpressions::fromPropertyTree for the "offset-points" noise expression function.
Removed rocket silo rocket prototype property "result_items" because it did nothing.
Added draw_as_light and draw_as_glow property to sprite definitions. draw_as_shadow, draw_as_light and draw_as_glow are mutually exclusive and draw_as_shadow takes precedence.
Unified laser and beam related ammo categories to just "laser" and "beam".

Added direction to SimpleEntityWithOwner and SimpleEntityWithForce.
Constrained collision_box and collision_mask of transport belt connectable prototypes so it is not possible to build the entities in overlapping positions. (
more
)
Added optional draw_fluid_icon_override boolean to pipe to ground prototypes. Causes fluid icon to be drawn, ignoring the usual pair requirement.

Scripting
Renamed the clean_cursor method to clear_cursor.
Renamed on_put_item to on_pre_build, as it is much more precise name for that event. It fires when anything is used for building: item, blueprint, blueprint record or ghost cursor.

Changed LuaControl for players in cutscenes so the character is still usable.
Changed on_player_cancelled_crafting 'cancel_count' to report the exact number of crafts cancelled.
Decoupled deactivation by script and deactivation by circuit network.

Barrels
can be used to store and transport 50 units of various fluids. Since they are solid objects, they can be used as an alternative to pipes, once
fluid handling
is researched. The barrels themselves are reusable once the fluids are drained.
Barrels stack in groups of 10. A single
cargo wagon
can hold 400 barrels, which gives a capacity of 20,000 units per cargo wagon – 30,000 fewer units than the capacity of a
fluid wagon
.
Empty barrels have a rocket capacity
of 200. Full barrels, regardless of fluid, have a rocket capacity
of 100. As such, a single rocket can carry 5000 units of any fluid which can be barrelled.

Example of use
Barrels are useful in situations where pipes are not available or a bad option, such as oil production far away from your main factory, or when transporting fluids to another planet in
Space Age
. Barrels can be transported with a
belt transport system
or
railway
, by
logistic robots
, via
car
or
tank
, or in the
player
's inventory. A simple example with
transport belts

Notes
Despite being labelled as an intermediate product, making empty barrels and filling or emptying barrels cannot accept
productivity modules
.
Barrel filling and emptying recipes cannot accept
quality modules
.
History
0.16.8
:
Lowered barrel fluid capacity from 250 to 50. (So cargo wagon with barrels holds 20k and logistic robots are not too strong alternative to carrying fluids.)
Decreased barrelling crafting time from 1 second to 0.2 seconds.
0.15.0
:
Added automatic barreling support for all fluids.

Petroleum gas
is a fluid created in an
oil refinery
from
crude oil
or
coal
, or in a
chemical plant
or
Biochamber
from
light oil
. Petroleum gas is used to create
plastic bars
and
sulfur
, important ingredients for mid-to-high-level recipes.
Petroleum gas can also be used to create
solid fuel
, but the ratio of fuel created is not as efficient as that of light oil, and petroleum gas is usually too valuable to waste.

Advanced circuits
(or "red circuits") are used as components in most high-tech items, most notably in
chemical science packs
, but also logistics robot items, modules, and equipment. They require an
oil processing
setup as they are produced using
plastic bars
.
Advanced circuits are slower to build than most other intermediate components, require three inputs, and are in high demand. As an example of the demand, a finished
productivity module 3
requires a total of 190 advanced circuits. Due to their slow build time,
assembling machine 3s
with speed modules may be useful in their production.

Ratio
The following shows the minimum ratio of assemblers/machines and items required to produce advanced circuits such that all number of assemblers are whole numbers. Items per min is calculated using
assembling machine 3
with no
modules
or
beacons
and all assemblers running at full speed. The crafting of some intermediate products are not shown (due to the assumption that these items are available in large quantities within the factory). This table was produced using normal recipe difficulty.

The radar reveals the map for the force it belongs to.
It can be used to provide a small area of remote vision on the map; it also allows periodic scanning of distant chunks around it. The radar has a high
power
demand (300kW) so a radar indirectly contributes to
pollution
when powered by
boilers
and
steam engines
. A radar can be continuously powered by eight
solar panels
and six
accumulators
. Seven solar panels and five accumulators is the most efficient; it gives the radar full power all but a short time in the morning, but never dips below the 20% power threshold for nearby scanning.
Despite being categorized as a military building, the radar will not be attacked by
enemies
unless it blocks their path to another target, which means that radars can be safely placed in biter-infested areas without needing to be defended. The radar will show enemy lifeforms and structures, as well as
trains
,
cars
, and other
players
in the scanned area.

Nearby pulse scanning
The radar continuously charts an area of 7×7
chunks
(224×224
tiles
), centered on the chunk the radar occupies. This nearby area is updated as a single pulse approximately every second. At reduced power levels, this nearby pulse scan will take longer, which can lead to 'blinking' on the player's map similar to the long range scan. This is particularly noticeable at dawn and dusk on solar powered radar stations.
At 20% power the radar will pulse about every 4 seconds which will still keep the nearby area continuously lit on the map, but will provide reduced detail. 20% power can be achieved by a single
solar panel
, or by using one isolating accumulator for every 5 radars.
Long range survey scanning
The radar charts one distant
chunk
every time the sector scanning progress bar fills. This will take 33.333 seconds, if the radar is receiving full power. Mouse-over or click-open the radar details to see this progress bar. Long range scanning is visible on the map as a single chunk lighting up for several seconds, then slowly darkening.
It scans the unexplored chunks first, represented by the black areas on the map. Note that it also generates the chunks if they weren't generated at the time of the scan.
One chunk scan takes 10 MJ of energy to complete. Since the radar draws 300 kW of power, it takes 10 MJ ÷ 300 kW = 33.333 seconds to scan one chunk.
This is done in an area of 29×29 chunks around the radar, excluding the nearby 7×7 chunks.
With a total number of 792 chunks (29×29 − 7×7), it takes one radar
7 hours 20 minutes
to complete one full scan cycle.
If everything is already explored it continues to scan by re-scanning the longest-ago scanned chunk within range.
Multiple radars will share long-range chunks, reducing the amount of time it takes to complete long-range survey scanning.
This is a smart process, meaning that the radars will not scan chunks currently being scanned by other radars.
It is possible that a new alien nest will appear in a previously scanned chunk; just because you don't see it on the map, doesn't mean it is not there.
Coverage
Radars grant sight of a square area around them, which is displayed brighter than the rest of the map. This allows the player to zoom into the normal world view from the map and makes interaction with
blueprints
and
deconstruction planners
possible.
The coverage area of a radar and the player.
Charting
If a
chunk
is
scanned
by a radar or player, the image of that chunk that is copied into the map of the players of this surface force (every force has its own map).
This procedure is called "charting".
Animation of chunks in the upper-right area being revealed by radars.
Charting process
If the contents of a chunk changes between two ticks, the content of that chunk is "charted" into the map. The map is just a bitmap, a picture. You can see the entities moving, you can see enemies walking. Every entity is represented by one or more pixels. Not every entity is drawn. Users can recognize what is drawn because of the color.
Charting of several chunks that change each tick might have an impact on game performance, manifesting in the form of lowered
UPS
or
FPS
.
Charting decay time / fog of war
Once a scan for a chunk is triggered, it keeps actively charted for
10 seconds
. This effect can also be seen in the map of the chunk highlighted and dims within 10 seconds to a greyed out version of the chunk.
If charting is not repeated within the 10 seconds, the charting process stops for this chunk after 10 seconds and is no longer updated. What you see after that time is the last charted picture for that chunk (also called "fog of war").
Charting of vehicles
Even in the fog of war you can see the last charted position of vehicles. Trains last positions are not charted, because they normally move after the charting stops.
Vehicles are shown as a circle, with an arrow pointing in the direction that they're facing.
Remote control
Tanks
and
spidertrons
cannot be entered when out of radar range, but can still be controlled and exited.
Invisible (black) parts of the map
The
map generator
creates a "border" of invisible chunks around each chunk, that becomes active at some time. Active chunks are those that become charted or those that are active because the pollution spreads onto them.
Circuit network
Every radar has a
circuit network
connection to every other radar on that surface. Any circuit signal sent into a radar is output from every other radar on the surface. When the radar loses power, it loses its circuit connection. The output signal can only be seen in connected objects like electric poles, because the radar does not have a GUI.

Barrels
can be used to store and transport 50 units of various fluids. Since they are solid objects, they can be used as an alternative to pipes, once
fluid handling
is researched. The barrels themselves are reusable once the fluids are drained.
Barrels stack in groups of 10. A single
cargo wagon
can hold 400 barrels, which gives a capacity of 20,000 units per cargo wagon – 30,000 fewer units than the capacity of a
fluid wagon
.
Empty barrels have a rocket capacity
of 200. Full barrels, regardless of fluid, have a rocket capacity
of 100. As such, a single rocket can carry 5000 units of any fluid which can be barrelled.

Enemies
are creatures that want to
harm
the
player
. They are the native inhabitants of the extraterrestrial worlds on which the player is operating. Enemies show up on the map as red dots.
On
Nauvis
, the enemies are arthropods which live in organic nests. They are encountered in three species: Biters, Spitters, and Worms (though the nickname "Biters" is often used collectively for all of them).
More enemies can be encountered on other planets with the
Space Age
expansion. On the planet
Gleba
, there are pentapods which come in three variants: Wrigglers, Strafers, and Stompers. On the planet
Vulcanus
, there are the Demolishers.
Each species comes in a range of sizes, where larger specimens have more health and do more damage.

Creatures
Biters
Biters are one of two main antagonists in the base game. They come in four sizes: small, medium, big and behemoth. In the beginning of a game, there will only be the small ones. With increasing
pollution
, they will become bigger, related to the enemy's
evolution
. As common sense may suggest, their method of attack is a straightforward charge to "bite" things.

Spitters
Spitters
are much like
biters
and only appear slightly later on in the game as the evolution factor increases. Their main difference from biters is their ranged attack. Using predictive aiming, they spit a stream of acid at enemies which leaves behind a puddle of acid where it hits the ground. Due to the spitters' predictive aiming, the acid stream can be dodged by suddenly changing walking directions or standing still.
[1]
Both the stream and the puddle of acid deal damage over time and slow down players and vehicles. Most entities of the game have a much lower resistance to acid than other damage types (including
turrets
and
armor
), so spitters are effectively more potent against the player and their factories. Their behavior and size classification are the same as with biters, but their health is universally lower and they are resistant exclusively against explosives, with no physical resistance.

Worms
The Worms are natural allies of biters and spitters and will attack the player if they get close enough with an attack similar to spitters'. They act like static
turrets
and will not follow attackers. They rely on high damage, great range and splash damage to keep the player away from the worms and the nests they protect, but either one of these advantages can be overcome. Unlike other enemies, they are also highly resistant to fire. They will spit acid at the player, which can also leave acidic puddles on the ground that can still damage players and vehicles, as well as slow them both down and leave a brief acidic, damaging effect for a few seconds. However, placed buildings and tiles are unaffected by the acid puddles, but still take damage normally by the acid projectile.
Worms come in 4 sizes, their power increasing with size. Like biters and spitters, behemoth, big and medium worms spawning is influenced by the evolution factor. Worms are only created during enemy expansion when a certain evolution factor requirement is fulfilled. This is 0.3 for the medium worm, 0.5 for the big worm and 0.9 for the behemoth worm. Below these evolution factors, worms can only be created by the map generation. In map generation, the game restricts higher tier worms behind the distance from the starting point. The further away the player goes from the starting area, the stronger the worms become.

Wrigglers
Wrigglers are the biter equivalents of the planet Gleba, as they are standard melee enemies. True to their name, they flail and squirm their digits to move around and attack. Much like how biters and spitters spawn from nests, wrigglers spawn from egg rafts. Destroying egg rafts will spawn a group of more premature wrigglers, which are wrigglers that slowly lose health over time until they die. Strafers can launch flying versions of premature wrigglers at their target.
Killing strafers and stompers can summon even more premature wrigglers. The wrigglers that spawn from the corpses of strafers and stompers will match the size of the larger enemy that was killed. For example, killing a small strafer or stomper will spawn small premature wriggers, while killing a medium strafer or stomper will spawn medium premature wrigglers.

Strafers
Native to the planet Gleba, strafers are large yet scrawny five-legged pentapod creatures with the unique behavior of constantly circling around players while attacking them, rather than making a beeline straight for the player, unlike any other type of enemy in the game. They will fire flying premature wrigglers toward the player, essentially adding more enemies to the fight.

Stompers
Native to the planet Gleba, stompers are extremely large, five-legged pentapod creatures with limbs that look similar to a starfish, and seem to have natural, jagged exoskeleton armor that provides high resistances to many types of damage. They are very powerful melee enemies that use their brute force to attack
players
by simply stomping toward them, while spitting a close-ranged acid that slows down players and
Vehicles
. Their large size and high damage can destroy buildings instantly. They will spawn premature wrigglers upon death.

Demolishers
Native to the planet Vulcanus, demolishers are horrendously large worm-like creatures that roam across the land and lava. Each individual demolisher patrols a defined territory, and building structures in their territory will disturb them and cause them to attack.
Demolishers have three types of offense. On physical contact they do high damage to the player, and instantly destroy buildings and cliffs. They release a smoke cloud that slows the player and damages any nearby bots. And at range, they cause explosions to erupt from the ground, Due to their high damage resistances and extremely fast health regeneration, killing them requires advanced and upgraded weaponry, or massive quantities of bullets. They are completely immune to the
slowdown capsule's
effect.
Once killed, they leave behind remains similar to that of black volcanic rock, which contain
tungsten ore
.

Nests
Nests in the wild will have their max health increase with evolution factor exponentially, up to 10 times their starting health.
Biter and spitter nests can be captured by firing a
capture bot rocket
from a
rocket launcher
at a nest. After the nest is captured, it must be given
bioflux
to maintain and continuously create
biter eggs
. If the nest is not maintained, it will slowly lose 1 health per second, but when fed, it will gain 1 health per second.

Expansions
Every 4-60 minutes, a group of 5-20 biters/spitters will leave their base to create a new base which will consist of as many worms/nests as there are members in the group. This group will search for a suitable spot that's 3-7 chunks away from existing bases. The interval between enemy expansions is global, and the higher enemy evolution, the shorter the interval is on average. Furthermore, with higher evolution, the groups are bigger on average.
Once they have found a suitable spot, each biter/spitter in the group dies and forms a new nest or worm. Forming a new nest or worm will destroy anything that is in the way, which can include members of the expansion group. There is a delay between each member sacrificing itself for to create a worm/nest, so creating the new base from the expansion group can take quite a long time, depending on the group size. Medium worms are only formed if the current evolution is higher than 0.3, big worms only if the current evolution is higher than 0.5 and behemoth worms are only formed if current evolution is higher than 0.9. The game randomly chooses whether to form a new biter nest, spitter nest, small worm, or bigger worm if the evolution factor is high enough.

Expansions on
Gleba
function mostly similar, except that pentapods only create spawners in marshes, and will
never
create nests on other tiles.
Defense
"Kills" tab on the
production statistics
screen.
Nests spawn biters and spitters freely. However, biters and spitters will only aggressively engage the player's factory if the pollution cloud of the factory reaches a nest because pollution is consumed to send biters or spitters to join the next attack. Every 1 to 10 minutes (random) the mustered biters launch an attack. If not all biters have arrived at the rendezvous point by that time, they will wait up to an additional 2 minutes for stragglers. The attack then proceeds to their target over the shortest path possible, accounting for terrain, but not for player entities that could pose an obstacle (like
walls
).
If there is a clear path somewhere around those obstacles, the biters will attempt to go around. If there is no clear passage or a clear passage would mean deviating too far from the original course, the biters will attack whatever is in their way to go through. This can be exploited to an extent; creating mazes at regular intervals along a barrier can direct the biters through a gauntlet not dissimilar to tower defense.
However, if a biter comes in proximity of a
military unit or structure
, it will prioritize these and attempt to immediately attack them instead, again trying to reach the new target over the shortest possible path with no too great detours, if possible.
Evolution
Spawn chances of biters from biter spawners by evolution factor.
Spawn chances of spitters from spitter spawners by evolution factor.
Weight graph of both spawners by evolution factor. The values shown are primarily for indicating when certain types start and stop spawning, for actual chances refer to the tables or other charts.
The evolution factor is a global variable that determines what kind of biters will be spawned. You can check the variable in the dev console via the following command (does not disable achievements):
/evolution
The evolution factor goes from 0 (not evolved at all) to 1 (maximal evolution). The evolution factor can only increase.
This command also provides percentages for the three sources; each one is the percent of the (unsquashed) total evolution that is contributed by that source.
Besides choosing what kind of biter will be spawned, the evolution factor also influences the spawning interval. This interval (
spawning_cooldown
in the
enemy-spawner
definition) is interpolated between 360 (0 evolution) and 150 (1 evolution) game ticks (= 6 to 2.5 seconds).
Methods of increasing
The evolution factor is increased by three kinds of events:
The passage of time very slightly increases the evolution factor.
The global
pollution production
increases the evolution factor.
Destroying
nests
significantly increases the evolution factor.
The default settings are:
| Source per | Variable inenemy_evolution | Evolution increase | Pollution equivalent |
| ----------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------ | -------------------- |
| Second | time_factor | 0.000004 | 267/minute |
| Destroyed enemy spawner | destroy_factor | 0.002 | 2222 |
| 1 Pollution unit | pollution_factor | 0.0000009 | 1 |
Note that all spawners (not worms) generate the same amount of evolution when destroyed.
These values can be set during
world generation
: the values in the dialog box are multiplied by 10^-7 for time and pollution, and 10^-5 for spawner destruction. In game, they can be found in
game.map_settings.enemy_evolution
, though checking or modifying them is considered using cheats.
Pollution production is the total pollution produced by
buildings
, not the pollution spreading on the map, so it is not reduced by trees or other absorbers.
e.g. : 10 boilers produce 300 pollution in one minute, raising the evolution factor by around 0.00027 in that minute.
After totaling up all the evolution from these sources, this quantity is squashed to fit in the range
[0, 1)
by applying
evolution_factor = total_evolution / (1 + total_evolution)
.
Equivalently, marginal increases in evolution are reduced by multiplying the increase by
(1 - evolution_factor)²
. So for instance destroying enemy spawners in the beginning of the game results in increase of evolution factor by 0.002 while doing this when the evolution factor is 0.5 the increase is only 0.0005.
This also means that the evolution factor approaches 1 asymptotically - generally, increases past 0.9 or so are
very
slow and the number never actually reaches 1.0.
| Evolution factor | Pollution equivalent | Appearance |

| 10% | 123k | |

Spawn chances by evolution factor
The probability charts show the chances of each type of biter/spitter for each spawner at all evolution levels.
Advanced: Evolution factor components and computation
This section has charts plotting the individual evolution factor components and discusses possibilities for manually estimating the evolution factor.
1. Single-component evolution factor increase with time
2. Single-component evolution factor increase with destroyed spawners
3. Single-component evolution factor increase with pollution
Notes
Data from version 1.1.50.
All charts end at approximately an evolution factor of 0.90.
The calculation steps for time and spawner kills match those used by the game, so these charts should be accurate. The pollution chart assumes a pollution production of 1000 units per second, and due to the recursive nature of the chart values will slightly diverge at different pollution rates. The effect of this is negligible for any reasonable amount pollution production, however.
Given that the game reports the actual evolution factor (console:
/evolution
) whenever the player wishes, these charts are intended primarily to help estimate the impact of planned base expansions and similar activities on the evolution factor's future development.
Comments
These charts (click to enlarge) represent the situation where each evolution factor component (time, pollution, destroyed spawners) is the
only
component contributing to the evolution factor in that entire game. They are therefore
not realistic
, as in a typical game all three components will contribute, some at varying times and intensities.
Because of how contributions to the evolution factor (EF) are calculated (multiplied by
(1 - current EF)
), it is
not
possible to simply add the values indicated by these charts for a game's time passed, pollution generated, and / or spawners destroyed so far to retrieve the total evolution factor.
For example, if 24 hours have passed (single-component EF =~ 0.25), 200,000 pollution units were released (single-component EF =~ 0.15), and 400 spawners were destroyed (single-component EF =~ 0.45), the actual evolution factor will
not
be (0.25 + 0.15 + 0.45 =) ~0.85.
However, the evolution factor will always be
less
than the sum of all individual components as indicated by these charts, and
at least
as high as the highest individual component. Thus, using the values from above, the EF will be
at least
0.35 and
less than
0.85. A smarter approach is required to compute the current evolution factor.
Individual components
The individual components of evolution can be approximated from
/evolution
:
Given the evolution factor, the unsquashed evolution is
unsquashed = evolution_factor / (1 - evolution_factor)
. Multiply this by the percentage for a given component to get its approximate unsquashed contribution. Of course, total pollution and spawner kills can also be found on the
production statistics
screen, and time passed can be found using the
/time
command, so it's not fully necessary.
The actual factors can be found in
game.forces.enemy.evolution_factor_by_time
,
...evolution_factor_by_killing_spawners
, and
...evolution_factor_by_pollution
, if you don't mind disabling achievements.
Trivia
Despite their drastically different origins, enemies from different planets will always act as allies against the player. They will even reside around each other's nests when not attacking players, even if the type of nest does not match that of the residing creature. Even demolishers will circle around nests without harming or destroying them. Since enemies only spawn on their respective planets, this is not normally seen in gameplay, unless these creatures are placed near each other in the
map editor
.
Demolishers
were originally designed for
Fulgora
, but was later moved to
Vulcanus
because it was too similar to the
Dune Franchise
.

Introduction
Combinator logic is achieved by cross-connecting outputs to inputs in such a way to achieve the desired logic. While advanced logic requires a multitude of combinators, some very useful basic logic can be achieved using only a handful of combinators. Combinator logic works because Factorio only updates at
60 times per second
. Logically, each update tick is separated into two steps. In the first step, all combinators first read the input from the connected network(s), perform their computations. This produces an output value for every combinator. The tick update concludes with the second step, where the values of each network will be updated as the sum of all connected values.
When logic values are computed by combinators, the outputs are not recognized by the circuit network until the following step. So when a
decider combinator
is used to detect a certain input condition, its output value will not take effect on the circuit network until the next step.
This behavior is important to remember and can result in sequencing errors and significant delays when multiple combinators are connected in series.
Circuit wires act like a wire bus in electronics; they carry information in the connected wires, meaning that if there are similar signals on a wire it will add them automatically. If the signal is different, it will be carried in that wire as well, but as a different signal.
When cross-connecting combinators, it is good practice to use the unused color to cross-connect, this will split the input and output networks and prevent unwanted inputs from accidentally connecting to a larger circuit network. Combinators will sum the red and green inputs prior to calculation, so either color can be used when wiring the output back to the input. In most cases however, it is more useful to use the opposing color of the wire so that it will not interfere with the resulting output and input.
When trying to understand combinators, your best friend is the in-game editor. You can pause the game and, with the "Tick once" keybinding, inspect nodes and networks as they go through different states.

Some of the virtual signals available for use in the circuit network
In addition to the standard item signals, Factorio's circuit network also includes a set of signals that do not represent any particular game item. Instead, these virtual signals serve as user-definable channels for the circuit network; they hold whatever meaning the user wants them to. There are currently 102 virtual signals that can be sent over the circuit network (or 172 in
Space Age
), split between the Signals, Enemies, Environment, and Unsorted tabs. They include but are not limited to:
The 36 alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9)
9 colors: red, green, blue, yellow, magenta, cyan, white, grey, and black
25 icons: several crosses, lines, and arrows
All
enemy
varieties
All environmental objects (trees, rocks, the player, and cliffs)
The two wires, and spidertron, discharge, and artillery remotes
Logic signals
There are three additional virtual signals known as
logic signals
. Unlike other signals, they cannot be sent over the circuit network; instead, they apply additional logic to combinators that modify their behavior. Specifically, these logic symbols act as wildcards, which are special signals that represent
zero or more
arbitrary signals instead of representing a single discrete signal. Factorio's circuit network implements three types of wildcards.
Everything wildcard
The
Everything
wildcard is used with decider combinators. Its exact behavior depends on whether it is used as an input or an output:
Input
: Returns true if
all
input signals pass the condition, or if there are
no
input signals, otherwise it returns false.
Output
: Returns
all
non-zero input signals.
When used as an input, the
everything
wildcard can be thought of as a logical AND, or a
universal quantifier
. When used as an output, it acts as an 'echo' or 'dump' of input signals.
Note
: Can be used as an output as long as the input is not an
each
wildcard.
Anything wildcard
The
Anything
wildcard is also used with decider combinators.
Given
at least one
input signal, it returns true if
any
input signal passes the condition. If no signal passes the condition, or there are no input signals, then it returns false. From this behavior, the
anything
wildcard can be thought of as a logical OR, or an
existential quantifier
.
When used in both the input and output of a decider combinator,
anything
will return one of the signals that matched.
Each wildcard
The
Each
wildcard is used with both decider combinators and
arithmetic combinators
, and behaves somewhat uniquely compared to the previous two. Generally speaking, it performs a combinator action on each signal
individually
, with the exact action depending on how it is used, and the type of combinator it is used in. It can be used as an input, and it can be used as an output, but
only when it is used as input as well
.
In a
decider combinator
, when used as an input, the
each
wildcard individually compares each input signal against the combinator condition, returning each signal that passes the condition. The manner that the
each
wildcard returns signals when used as input depends on whether or not it is also used as output:
Input only
: Sums each input signal that passed the condition, and depending on output settings returns either a count of the passed signals or a summation of their values as the desired output signal.
Input and Output
: Returns each signal that passed the condition, their values depending on the output settings.
In an
arithmetic combinator
, the designated arithmetic operation is applied individually to each input signal, and similar to the decider combinator, the signal that is returned depends on whether or not the
each
wildcard is used as output:
Input only
: The result of each operation on the input signals is summed and returned as the desired output signal.
Input and Output
: Each input signal is returned with the result of the specified operation applied to it.
The
Each
wildcard is therefore notably more complex than the other two wildcards, but offers a good deal of power in exchange for its complexity.
Input insulator & gate
An arithmetic combinator set to (In: Each + 0, Out: Each) can be used to swap wire colors and as an insulator to prevent downstream logic from backfeeding into the circuit network's inputs.
A decider combinator set to (Out: Everything, Input-> Output) will also function as an insulator as long as the set logic condition is true. This can also selectively pass or 'gate' inputs only when desired. This could be used to sequentially poll remote train stations for their chest contents, and include only desired stations.
Set/Reset latching switch
You want something to SET a trigger at some quantity, but then STAY on until that quantity hits some other value, the RESET value. You'll need one decider combinator and one arithmetic combinator. (Two decider combinators and a
constant combinator
can also be used for more complex multi-channel conditions.)
Setup the first decider combinator to the desired set conditional and to output a 1. Then connect the output to the input of an arithmetic combinator, and configure it to multiply by the bias value, which is the difference between the set and reset values, and wire the arithmetic output to the input of the decider. The arithmetic output channel must be set the same as the decider's input channel.
Whenever the set conditional is reached, the decider will output a '1', and the bias of the arithmetic combinator will be applied. This will 'hold' the output true until the value goes back below the reset point.
In this specific example, the pump runs when light oil reaches 20000, and turns off when it reaches 5000:
A similar backup steam power example with detailed configuration and explanation can be found here:
RS latch - single decider version
Basic memory
A decider combinator can be used to store values, either for a counter or for more advanced logic (see below). The decider combinator is configured with
input and output connected to the same network (typically each other),
condition set to a signal > 0 for positive values or ≠ 0 to store both positive and negative values,
output set to the input count of a specific input signal or
.
As long as all inputs on the network are zero, it will hold the previously set value.
Remember the two step update process from above? If the network has value
=5, the combinator will read this value from the network as its input, determine that it is > 0. It will then set the output to the input, which is
=5. In the next step, the value of the network will be computed, which is the sum of all the connected outputs, which is
=5, again.
A non-zero input held over time, e. g. the output of a constant combinator, will create a basic runaway clock. The stored value will be incremented by the sum of all connected input values every cycle. So e.g. with a constant combinator that produces
=1 connected to the memory, the network will store the value 1 in the first tick, 2 in the second, etc., incrementing 60 times per second.

Again, how does this work in detail? The network will start without any values set. As soon as the constant combinator becomes active, it will produce
=1, and the decider combinator will produce 0 because no value is set yet. Step 2: The network will be set to the sum of all output, so
=1. In the next update tick, the constant combinator produces
=1 again, but now the decider sees
=1, so it would also output [A]=1. Step 2: The network is set to the sum, which is
=2. And so on.
Typically a constant combinator producing 1 will be used, but of course it could output other values, including negative values.
A negative value would decrease the stored value in the example below.
If the decider combinator uses > 0 as the condition, only positive values will be allowed, so the value will stop decreasing if 0 is reached.
If the condition is ≠ 0, negative values will also be allowed.
A single pulse of an input will cause a single increment by the pulsed value, creating a counter. In the following blueprint, place one item on the belt. Every time it is scanned by the connected belt, a pulse is generated that increments the stored value.

A stored value is cleared if the condition is no longer met, which makes the decider clear its output. This only works if the value is also not output elsewhere in the network. A stored value can also be reset to zero if a negative pulse equal to the input occurs. The latter can also happen while other inputs are still connected.
Basic clocks
A basic clock. 30 ticks is the ceiling for signal 1, which is continuously added.
Settings for a single-combinator version.
Clocks are constructed by having the output of a combinator tied back to its own input, such that every cycle advances its own count. Either the arithmetic combinator or the decider combinator can be used.
An arithmetic combinator tied to itself is fun to watch and will happily run-away, but requires additional control logic to reset.
With a single decider combinator, a self-resetting clock can be built. Wire output to input and configure with less than (<) with a specific number, and Input → Output. When a constant combinator is then connected to the input, every cycle it will count up by the output of the constant combinator until the number is reached. The decider will then clear its output, only the constant combinator will contribute to the value in the network, which resets the clock.
This means that the clock sequence will not include zero. It will begin at the value set in the constant combinator. Furthermore, it will include the number value that causes the conditional to become false. An arithmetic combinator can modify the clock sequence, but remember that its outputs will occur one cycle later than the clock cycle values.
The constant combinator can be dispensed with by adding the constant 1 as an additional output. Note that this version will set the signal value equal to the threshold for one tick, so with the same thresholds it will count for 1 more tick (analogous to the difference between 1-based and 0-based counting in computer programming). If the exact period is important, the threshold must be lowered by 1 (e.g. to repeat every second (60 ticks), the threshold must be 59).
A clock that only counts once can be built using the following setup. The clock can get reset by enabling and disabling the constant combinator that outputs
.
One-time clock. Runs until T=Z+1. Reset via R>0.

Pulse generators
Connecting an additional (=) decider combinator to the output of a basic clock will create a pulse generator, and will pulse a single output every time the clock cycles through the set condition. Any output value can be used, either directly from the clock sequence (input->output), a 1, or some value on a separate logic channel on the circuit network, such as set by a constant combinator. or by the circuit network.
The value 1 can be written as any positive integer, so long as it is within the cap or ceiling of your timer.
As an example from the above timer, this light will pulse every 1st tick after the timer reaches 30 ticks, making it pulse 1/30th of a second, as Factorio updates at 60 times per second.
Edge detectors
The computation delay of combinators can be used to generate a one-tick pulse when a signal changes, e. g. from 0 to 1.
Connect an output of a combinator with red to the input, and with green to the output of an arithmetic combinator that multiplies by -1. When the red circuit changes a signal from 0 to 1, the arithmetic combinator gets input 1, but the output is still 0. So the green wire has value 1 for this one tick. In the next tick, the arithmetic combinator updates, so the output switches to -1. The green wire now has two inputs that cancel each other out. The same happens if the red input signal changes from 1 to 0, but in this case the green wire becomes -1 for one tick.
If you're only interested in generating a pulse if the signal changes from 0 to 1, a decider combinator set to >0 can be used to filter out the negative pulses. This mechanic can e. g. be used to count the numbers of trains that enter a station.
Counter
A counter is used to count the number of input events, and output the sum of that count. Any pulsing input into a decider combinator configured input -> output and wired between output and input will create a counter, but this input must be zero at all other times or else the combinator will run away like a clock. A pulse generator is normally used to accomplish this. Combining several gating decider isolators set with sequential conditionals, a clock, and a pulse generator to the input of a counter will allow remote polling and counting of each isolator's contents.
Memory cells
Simple latch
When looping the combinator to itself, use a different color of wire from your main inputs or outputs.
Truth Table:
| Output 1 | Input 1 | Input 2 | Output 1 (t+1) |
| -------- | ------- | ------- | -------------- |
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 0 | 1(2) |
| 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1(2) |
Output 1 is the green wire loop seen in the picture, it carries the value to latch.
Input 1 is Set, while Input 2 is Reset.
Positive cell
Cell for storing a positive value, with reset support:
Connect the desired value as signal I on the right side to set the memory cell and connect a negative value as signal I to reset the cell.
The output of the memory cell is 2 mutually exclusive signals.
In case input signal I > 0 then signal I is passed to the other side.
In case input signal I is interrupted, then signal M is passed instead as a memory of previous input value.
When input signal I is interrupted, it takes 2 ticks to switch to memory signal M.
In case input I signal lasts only one tick then memory cell starts to cycle between the 2 previous values, tick by tick. Indefinitely.
Switching is seamless, e.g. there are no ticks with empty signal.
Positives and negatives cell
This cell can store negatives or positives. Reset is done on a dedicated line. Additionally, a 1-tick burst is handled properly.
Forum post
.
The output M (memory) is the last non-zero input I (Input).
A non zero R (reset) signal sets the output to zero.
1-tick bursts of R or I are handled properly.
Negatives are handled properly.
Multiplier and Dictionaries/Arrays
Multiplying two signals together is simple and requires only a single combinator, however multiplying a set of signals is more complicated.
A proof is shown below for the equation and why it works.
A dictionary is a system that allows a value on a specific signal to be accessed. For example, A can contain many signals (either from a constant combinator or memory cell) and B can contain 1 of a specific signal (such as blue signal). What remains is the blue-signal value from A. This is because all the other signals are multiplied by 0.
Arrays are similar to dictionaries, but instead of using a signal as a key, we use a number. Constant combinators are placed mapping each signal to a unique number (such as 1 yellow belt, 2 red belt, 3 blue belt, 4 burner inserter, etc). Then, use a combinator of "each = index OUTPUT 1 of each" and plug that in as the input to a dictionary.
((A+B)^2 - (A-B)^2)/4 = AB
(A+B)^2 - (A-B)^2 = 4AB
(A^2 + 2AB + B^2) - (A^2 - 2AB + B^2) = 4AB
4AB = 4AB

thruster
to allow a
space platform
to move from planet to planet.
Because thruster oxidizer cannot be
barreled
, each platform must produce its own oxidizer.

The
storage chest
is a large advanced storage item that is part of the
logistic network
.
Logistic robots
store any items taken out of the
player's
logistic trash slots here, as well as items picked up from
active provider chests
.
Construction robots

ghosts
, as well as storing items picked up as a result of a
deconstruction order
; this includes the
wood

coal
from
trees
&
rocks
which were in the way of a ghost placement, and any items in other chests or on belts or inside buildings such as

Logistic robots will pick up items in the following priority:
active provider chests
> storage chests,
buffer chests
>
passive provider chests
Logistic robots will begin to fill storage chests from active provider chests if there are no other tasks available.
Logistic robots, and construction robots fulfilling deconstruction orders, will fill storage chests in the following priority:
Storage chests with a matching logistics filter and which already contain the item
Empty storage chests with a matching logistics filter
Unfiltered storage chests which already contain the item
Empty and unfiltered storage chests
Unfiltered storage chests containing other items
The filter that can be set on the storage chest is respected even if items that are actively being pushed to the network can not be stored anywhere else.
If a logistic robot carrying an item is unable to deliver its cargo (e.g. if the player moves out of range), it will drop its cargo in a storage chest before moving to other tasks.

Space platform foundations
are used to extend the dimensions of a
space platform
. Nearly any building can be placed on the foundation to add to the functionality of a space platform. They are also essential components for the
space platform starter pack
, which creates a space platform when launched with a
rocket
. The starting space platform will not be large enough for other buildings, so more space platform foundations must be sent to the platform to extend its size.
Notes
Each platform starter pack comes with 10 space platform foundation in the inventory and 36 space platform foundation placed around the Space platform hub.
Space platforms cannot be built with holes in them. If the player tries to create the hole, the space platform foundation will not build and will display a warning.
It takes 5 space platform foundation to increase a ships weight by one ton (200kg or 0.2 tons per platform). This is different from the rocket launch weight of 20 kg per Space platform foundation (50 tiles / 1000kg = 20kg).
When building a space platform from a blueprint or remote map view, each tile has a 1-second expand animation. Each space platform foundation will do the expand animation on its three exposed faces for 1 tile of length before repeating.
When a space platform foundation gets destroyed, everything not connected to the
space platform hub
will be destroyed.

The
nuclear reactor
generates heat by burning
uranium fuel cells
. The heat can be used in a
heat exchanger
to produce steam which can be used to generate power. Unlike other forms of power generation, it is load-independent – each fuel cell will always be used completely in 200 seconds, regardless of load or the temperature of the reactor. To prevent wasting fuel, excess power can be stored in
accumulators
, excess steam can be stored in
storage tanks
.
Instead of completely consuming the fuel, burning fuel in a nuclear reactor results in
depleted uranium fuel cells
. These used up cells can be
reprocessed
in a
centrifuge
to get back some of the uranium used to create the fuel cells.
Nuclear reactors have a heat capacity of 10 MJ/°C. Thus, they can buffer 5 GJ of heat energy across their working range of 500°C to 1000°C, and require 4.85 GJ of energy to warm up from 15°C to 500°C when initially placed.

Neighbour bonus
Reactors receive a bonus for adjacent operating reactors, which increases their effective thermal output by 100% per each such link. For example, two reactors operating next to each other will output a total of 160 MW of thermal energy, with each reactor producing 40 MW base and receiving 40 MW of neighbour bonus.
The Neighbour bonus only applies if:
2 reactors are directly next to eachother with all 3 heat connections directly connecting the two.
Both reactors are fueled.
Double-row layout
The most efficient practical layout is an aligned double row of arbitrary length (number of reactors as needed). For even numbers of reactors, the total output of the array is
160n − 160 MW
(where
n
= total number of reactors, and assuming all are fueled). Splitting the row, while possibly logistically beneficial, reduces total power output by 160 MW per split.
Odd numbers of reactors are inefficient in maximizing the bonus, but, if needed, the odd reactor should be aligned with one of the rows. Offsetting the longer row instead would not gain the extra reactor any bonus, while the reactor on the other end of the same row would lose its bonus as well. Placing the odd reactor between the ends of aligned rows would also lead to one fewer bonus, and also make the design un-tileable.
In any case however, such concerns are unlikely to arise until one has a very large base, as the individual output of reactors is massive, particularly with neighbour bonuses. As an example, a 5×2 reactor grid would produce 1,440 MW (1.44 GW), the equivalent of 1,600 steam engines, or 24,000 solar panels.
Square layout
Theoretically, a perfectly square grid of reactors with no spaces between would provide maximum bonus, as it minimizes the number of reactors with unlinked sides. This setup produces
200n − 160×sqrt(n) MW
(where
sqrt(n)
is the square root of the number of reactors).
However, while the heat pipe links will allow energy flow from reactors within the square, with no room around inner reactors, there will be no way to insert and remove fuel cells except manually (heat pipes are traversable by the player), which makes this setup impractical.
Furthermore, the gains compared to the double-row design are not large. After some calculation, one arrives at the expression for the ratio of the two (double-row design in denominator) as
(1.25n − sqrt(n)) ÷ (n − 1)
which evaluates to, for example, 1 for 4 reactors, 1.07 for 16 reactors, 1.16 for 100 reactors (considering only numbers that both an equal-length double row and a square can be built from), and so on. In the limit (infinite number of reactors), the ratio approaches 1.25 as the edge corrections become insignificant.
Explosion
If a reactor is destroyed (by damage) while it is above 900°C, it will explode just like an
atomic bomb
. This explosion has enough power to destroy other reactors, so one explosion can lead to a chain reaction of exploding reactors.

The
assembling machine 3
is the third and final tier of assembly machines, having the fastest
crafting
speed of all three. Like the
assembling machine 2
, it can use liquids in crafting.
Trivia
An assembling machine 3 with max energy reduction (80%) only needs as much energy as an
assembling machine 1
.
It is the only assembling machine capable of crafting faster than the player (crafting speed 1), without the use of modules or quality.
In the base game, the assembler's maximum possible crafting speed is 11.25, using 12
beacons
filled with
speed module 3s
. This uses 2.5MW on the assembler alone, and requires 8.3MW in total to run.
In
Space Age
, using 12 legendary
beacons
with legendary
speed module 3s
results in the machine having 78.6 crafting speed

Space platform example provided by Wube in
Friday Facts #381 - Space Platforms
Space platforms
are factories that can be built in space. Each space platform is a self-contained factory supported by a
space platform hub
.

Purpose
Broadly speaking, there are three purposes which space platforms might serve:
To craft recipes that can only be crafted in space, such as manufacturing
space science packs
.
To transport players and items between planets.
To collect and process
asteroids
.
Creation and deletion
Space platforms are created by loading a
space platform starter pack
into a rocket and pressing the button to create a new space platform. Alternatively, players may order the creation of a space platform from the remote view through the list on the top-left corner of the screen, in which case the necessary space platform starter pack is treated as a request from a not-yet-existing space platform around the specified planet. Either way, players are then allowed to name their new space platform. Note that space platforms can later be renamed from the menus of their space platform hubs.
Platforms can be deleted. After confirming that the platform is to be deleted, the deleted platform goes into a queue, which is shown at the bottom of the platform list in the remote view. Should the player regret their decision, then this gives five minutes to decide if they want to undo the removal of the platform before it is permanently deleted.
If the platform hub is destroyed, the entire space platform and all of its contents are lost. If any
player
is aboard when this happens, the player will respawn at the last planet they were at before going to space.
Construction
Unlike planetary surfaces, space platforms can only be edited by using the remote view. Therefore, players will order the construction of a space platform by placing ghosts. Instead of
construction robots
being used for constructing the space platform, the platform itself will automatically construct ghost entities and move ghost items to and from the platform hub as soon as materials are available and these actions are not obstructed. If the necessary materials are not available, they will be automatically requested from the planet where the space platform is stationed, if the appropriate option is enabled in the platform's logistic requests section.
A newly-created space platform consists of a 10×10 square of
space platform foundation
with a
space platform hub
in its center, all surrounded by empty space. Unlike most buildings, the space platform hub cannot be removed, and its destruction directly results in the loss of the entire space platform.
As nothing can be built on empty space, the platform must first be expanded with more space platform foundation. The platform's foundation must consist of a single connected area with no detached islands, and holes of empty space surrounded by foundation are not allowed. Should these rules be broken, then the violating tiles will not be built or removed before the issue is resolved.
Asteroid collectors
and
thrusters
can only be built on the edge of the platform. In particular, thrusters can only be built on the southern edge, and no foundation can be built within the rectangular area extending from the southern edge of the thruster for 82 tiles.
The entire platform surface functions as an
electric network
, so space platforms do not need any power poles.
Placement restrictions
Some entities cannot be placed on space platforms:
Chests
can't be placed on platforms. The main storage structure is the platform hub.
Robots
and
roboports
don't function in space, and no
railway
entities can be placed.
Burner devices
can't be placed on platforms. According to
FFF-381
, this is to add "a bit of realism as there's no atmosphere in space".
Space platforms have particular surface conditions, so buildings which have restrictions may not be placed on them. This is the same as for any other surface.
Electric poles can be built, but the global electric network covering the entire platform powers all devices. As such, electric poles are only useful as a way to
wire together
distant entities.
Transport between planets and space platforms
To transport players and items between a planet's surface and a space platform, the space platform must be stationed in orbit around the planet.
Items are delivered up to a platform by launching a
rocket
from a
rocket silo
. This can be done in one of three ways:
Filling the rocket manually or by using inserters, then manually sending the rocket towards the space platform by using the rocket silo's menu. This method allows sending rockets with several different types of items inside the same rocket, but cannot be automated.
Assigning logistic requests to the space platform hub, then filling a rocket with items of a type that is being requested, either manually or using by inserters. The rocket will then launch automatically. Only one type of item may be sent per rocket using this method.
Assigning logistic requests to the space platform hub while having a rocket silo set to request items from the logistic network. This allows
logistic robots
to fill the rocket automatically, and the rocket will launch automatically when full. Only one type of item will be sent per rocket.
The space platform hub will automatically request any items that are needed for construction of the platform. Automatic requests can receive items from any planet, whereas manual requests will only be fulfilled at one planet specified by the player. For manual requests, it is also possible to set a custom minimum payload per rocket instead of only accepting full rockets.
Items can be sent to a planet orbited by a space platform in one of two ways:
Manually moving items into the platform hub's orbital drop slots.
Assigning logistic requests to a planet's
cargo landing pad
.
The items will then be carried to the planet's surface by
cargo pods
. If the planet has a cargo landing pad, then the cargo pods will go there, placing their payloads directly inside the cargo landing pad's inventory (spilling the items if the cargo landing pad is already full). Otherwise, the cargo pod will land at a random location near the planet's spawn point. Landed cargo pods will wait for players to collect their payloads, and are automatically destroyed when emptied.
Unlike transfers from a planet's surface to a space platform, transfers from space platforms to planetary surfaces come at no material costs despite the appearance of a cargo pod.
Passengers
Characters can travel to space platforms by riding a rocket, and can likewise leave the platform in a cargo pod.
One character traveling to a space platform takes up an entire rocket, and is not allowed to carry any items in their inventory, except for their equipped weapons and armor (but not ammunition). All other items must be transferred to the space platform hub in separate rockets.
Players aboard space platforms are locked inside the space platform hub, unable to move. The player is therefore locked into remote view until they drop their character to a planetary surface. Note that there is no way to access a player's inventory while in this state.
Biter eggs
and
pentapod eggs
that spoil on the platform (either in the hub or on a belt) produce enemy entities like normal. These enemies do not suffocate, nor are they damaged by the environment. They will attack nearby structures as normal.
Travel
Space platforms with one or more
thrusters
are able to perform voyages between different space locations, such as planets. The more thrusters that are installed on a platform, the faster the platform can get to its destination, but this also causes asteroids to appear faster and threaten the platform. When the thrusters are stopped while in mid-destination, the platform will slowly move toward the destination it's closer to via gravitational pull.
Weight
Platform weight depends on how many
space platform foundation
tiles the platform has. Each tile of
space platform foundation
weighs 200kg or 0.2 tons. The
space platform hub
itself weighs 20 tons. Notably, extra
cargo bays
do not increase the platform's weight (aside from requiring
space platform foundation
under them).
Planetary schedules
Travel between planets can be automated, in a manner similar to using
trains
. Clicking on the
space platform hub
will bring up its GUI. Individual planets can be added to the platform's schedule by clicking the "add station" button. A popup will appear with all currently unlocked space destinations. When one is selected, another button appears for selecting a wait condition from a drop-down list. Like trains, wait conditions are used to tell the platform when to leave the planet's orbit. If no wait condition is selected, the platform will continue to its next stop, if one exists. One can also select if the platform will unload cargo at a planet. If this option is deselected, platforms will not drop any items down to planets automatically.
The space platform's GUI. There is one station set for the
solar system edge
.
When set to "automatic" mode, the platform will automatically fly to the designated planet. If attempting to travel to a planet that has no direct route to, the platform will fill in any gaps along the way. For example, attempting to fly from
Vulcanus
to
Fulgora
will have a platform automatically fly to
Nauvis
first.
There are 12 types of wait conditions, many of them unique to space platforms:
All requests satisfied
: All requests for the current planet have been satisfied.
Any request not satisfied
: At least one request for the current planet is not satisfied.
Any request zero
: At least one request for the current planet is satisfied.
Circuit condition
: A condition is met from the
circuit network
, or one of the platform's built in control signals.
Damage taken
: The platform has received a certain value of damage, defaulting to 1,000.
Inactivity
: No items were received or dropped out of the hub for the specified amount of seconds.
Item count
: The hub contains a specific amount of a certain item.
Passenger not present
: No players are present on the platform.
Passenger present
: At least one player is present on the platform.
Request not satisfied
: A specific request for any planet is not satisfied. Items not requested cannot be set.
Request satisfied
: A specific request for any planet is satisfied. Items not requested cannot be set.
Time passed
Additionally, platforms can make use of
schedule interrupts
, which behave exactly like trains.
The one exception to wait conditions is when traveling to the
shattered planet
. When this is selected, the wait condition becomes a "fly condition". Whatever condition is set will trigger while en-route to the shattered planet as if the platform was already stopped there. This is because the player is not intended to actually reach the shattered planet (though it is possible), and so the fly condition becomes a way to easily turn the platform around at a certain time.
The platform hub is able to be connected to the circuit network, with the following reactions:
Read contents
: The hub will output its contents to the circuit network
Send to platform
: Any signals on wires will be passed to the hub, allowing them to be used for wait conditions
Read moving to
: The platform will output the planet at the end of the current space route with a value of 1.
Read moving from
: The platform will output the planet at the beginning of the current space route with a value of 2.
If both "moving from" and "moving to" are selected, a platform stopped at a planet will output the planet's signal with a value of 3.
Read speed
: The platform will output its current velocity, defaulting to "V"
A speed signal will only show as 0 when stopped at a planet. If a platform is stopped between planets for whatever reason, it will slowly drift into orbit of the nearest planet, giving the signal a value of 10 or -10.
Read damage taken
: The platform will output the amount of damage taken in the current trip, defaulting to "D"
Asteroids
Main article:
asteroids
Space platforms regularly encounter
asteroids
.
The smallest asteroids are called "chunks". Chunks can be collected by
asteroid collectors
and processed into various raw materials by
crushers
. Among other uses, it is possible to convert these materials into
thruster fuel
and
thruster oxidizer
.
Asteroids larger than chunks may also appear. However, they cannot be grabbed by asteroid collectors, and will damage the space platform upon impact. They can be targeted by turrets, and can be broken into multiple smaller asteroids by reducing their health to 0. This is done repeatedly until they become chunks.
During voyages, the number and relative velocity of asteroids increases proportionally to the platform's speed. It is therefore dangerous for a space platform to travel faster than it can destroy the asteroids that it will encounter. Different locations contain different amounts of each type of asteroid, and routes between locations may vary these numbers over the course of a journey. For example, only chunks will appear in stationary orbit around
Nauvis
, thus providing a safe building environment free of larger asteroids that may damage the platform.

Documentation
This template is designed to be used to describe an item or machine, using a box of info.
This template uses functions from

Parameters
Usage
To use, create a page in the infobox namespace by prepending Infobox: to the page you are trying to add an infobox to, so that the new pages is called Infobox:(whatever the page name is). Then, on the page, add the line
{{:Infobox:Page_name}}
. This will "copy" the infobox you create on Infobox:... to the page itself. Of course, replace Page_name with the name of the page.
As for the infobox on Infobox:..., start with the line:
{{Infobox
. Then, on the next few lines, start with the pipe character, |, then place a parameter, and set it equal to the value you wish it to be. Then, end the parameter lines with two curly-brackets. "}}", and the line
<noinclude>[[Category:Infobox page]]</noinclude>
.
Example working box:
{{Infobox
|category = Logistics
|health=100
|stack-size=50
|wire-reach=9
|supply-area=7×7
|recipe=Time, 0.5 + Steel plate, 2 + Copper plate, 2
|required-technologies=Electric energy distribution 1
|producers=Player + Assembling machine
}}
<noinclude>[[Category:Infobox page]]</noinclude>
Additionally, the infobox will automatically translate. Just "copy" the infobox (the same way, from Infobox:...) to the page, as done for the English page. (
{{:Infobox:Page name}}
)
If you need further help, contact a wiki admin or look at existing examples, on actual pages.
Syntax
Recipe
The "recipe" parameter should be used as follows:
|recipe = wood, 4 = wooden chest, 1
Basically,
item1, quantity = output item, quantity.
Separate multiple items with
+
.
Technology trigger
The "technology-trigger" parameter should be used as follows:
|technology-trigger = trigger-type: Item, count
The trigger type can be one of the following:
mine-entity
build-entity
craft-item
capture-spawner
create-space-platform
send-item-to-orbit
The items and counts are optional, when they are left out then the colon after the trigger-type should also be removed.
|technology-trigger = capture-spawner
Quality
If a property is affected by quality, add the quality template around the different numbers for the quality levels. For example, the max health of an entity is affected by quality and formatted as follows:
|health = {{Quality|200|260|320|380|500}}
Because quality solely adds information to base game items and does not override or remove values, it is applied directly to the base properties (without space-age) and does not require "changed-by-space-age-mod" to be set.
Parameters
A list of valid parameters is provided below. Since this infobox is general purpose, not all must be used, however some are required. Required parameters are shown in
red
. Please be as descriptive as possible when making infoboxes.
Tip: This is a large table. After expanding, use
CTRL
+
F
in most browsers to search through this table easily.

Split into SA and non-SA?
The tech trees are very different between SA and non-SA playthroughs. So, what do we do about this navbox? Do we keep one unified navbox, or do we introduce another one for SA content? -

Tanks, like cars, match the color of the player driving them.
The
tank
is a heavy armored fighting
vehicle
. It is a mid-game vehicle with three weapons; an integrated
submachine gun
, a short range
flamethrower
and a powerful cannon that uses
cannon shells
. It, along with the
car
and
spidertron
, are the three non-rail vehicles in Factorio. In
multiplayer
, it is possible for a
player
to enter a tank alongside another player. The passenger can take control of the weapons of the tank using a switch in the GUI of the tank, but cannot steer the tank.
Since
engine units
can only be built in
assembling machines
, tanks (like cars) cannot be built from scratch by hand from their raw materials. If the tank is destroyed, its inventory is destroyed with it, though the player gets ejected and not killed. Tanks will change color based on the color of the player who drove it last.
Tanks can be driven remotely. Coupled with the tank's equipment grid, the player can remotely manipulate distant outposts without being there as well as to remotely expand the base by attacking enemy
nests
. However, unlike the spidertron, the tank lacks any map-revealing capabilities, and so is effectively confined to areas where the player has sufficient
radar
coverage.

Combat
The tank is a strong fighting vehicle due to its large health pool and the very high damage of its main weapon, the cannon.
Construction robots
can also repair the tank with
repair packs
, and the tank can even bring its own robots to do so using the
personal roboport
equipment.
The tank's weaponry can be augmented by equipment modules like the
personal laser defense
. If the player is inside of the tank, the player can deploy thrown items such as
grenades
,
poison capsules
, and
follower robots
from within the tank. The tank particularly shines in battle against
Worms
, as their high damage projectiles are much less of a problem for an entity with a high health pool. Defensive equipment or capsules/drones can be used to deal with mobile enemies.
The tank lags behind in speed, however, compared to the player and the car. As a result, it may not perform as well in combat against melee enemies or enemies with shorter range than the player, as it has more difficulty dodging enemies. This may result in the tank being destroyed quickly, leaving the player in a tight spot.
Movement
The tank is very robust, and unlike the car can move through and destroy
trees
without taking damage. Even when not moving, simply driving into an entity is enough to damage it. This can also be employed as a weapon against
enemies
, although certain enemies and structures (nests in particular) will deal high damage to the tank in the process, requiring repair after skirmishes.
The tank is slower than the car and can be rotated in place while standing still, unlike the car.
The speed and, in particular, responsiveness of the tank can be improved somewhat by burning better
fuel
: The tank, like all other vehicles, gains top speed and acceleration bonuses when running on solid fuel, rocket fuel and nuclear fuel, as opposed to wood or coal. The bonuses are +5% / +15% / +15% top speed and +20% / +80% / +150% acceleration for solid fuel, rocket fuel and nuclear fuel, respectively; wood and coal both yield the base level of top speed and acceleration.
Exoskeletons
may also be used on the tank's equipment grid to affect its top speed as though the tank was the player. However, this does not affect the tank's acceleration or deceleration. So it will take some time for the tank to accelerate to its top speed, as well as to stop from that speed. Given how destructive the tank can be to buildings, using many exoskeletons in a tank can make it dangerous to one's own base.

* The same stats apply to the
hazard
version
of these surfaces.
Speed in reverse
The top speed of the tank in reverse is ~70.6% of the forward top speed.
Capsules and Bots integration
The player directly driving the tank cannot fire any weapons equipped on the player. However, the player still has access to their inventory. The player can use inventory items, such as
capsules
and
combat robots
. The player's
equipment modules
are also available, so the player's
construction robots
run by a
personal roboport
can still be deployed from within the tank, which will use
repair packs
from the player to repair the tank. If the tank and the player both have
personal laser defenses
, both can be active at the same time.
Upon researching
logistic system
, the tank can utilize the
logistic network
to make requests like a player.
Exclusive Weapons
Flamethrower
A powerful short-ranged weapon that consumes
flamethrower ammo
. Unlike the hand-held
flamethrower
or the
flamethrower turret
, the tank version does not set entities on fire.
Cannon
The tank's cannon is one of the few weapons that damages anything in a line between the tank and the target. All cannon shells have the ability to pierce targets, which means that if the shell deals enough damage to kill what it hits, the shell can continue onward and deal damage to another target.
Standard
cannon shells
deal significant damage to a single target and have large piercing potential, while
explosive cannon shells
damage all targets in an area which makes them useful for dealing with large enemy groups. There are
uranium
versions of both shell types which deal even more damage.

The concept of
Time
in Factorio is used for many different implements, most notably crafting time and game time.
Crafting time and speed
When hovering over an item recipe, the player may see a clock symbol and a number. This is the amount of time needed to craft the item in seconds at crafting speed 1. The player always crafts at speed 1 while
assembling machines
have different crafting speeds.
Modules
may also affect crafting time, either speeding it up or slowing it down for some other benefit. The player, when handcrafting, crafts with a multiplier of 1, so items that claim to take 10 seconds to craft will take 10 seconds, but an
assembling machine 1
with a multiplier of 0.5 will take 20 seconds. It is important to take this into consideration when creating setups with proper ratios.
Ticks
The base unit of all time inside Factorio. When running at game speed 1, there should always be 60 ticks in every real-time second leading to the figure of 60 updates per second, short UPS. This means that 1 tick should ideally always take 1/60th of a real-time second (0.01667 seconds). However, it is possible to change the
game speed
using mods or console commands, so it is possible that ticks don't take 0.01667 real-time seconds. Furthermore, game speed will automatically slow down when the computer that is running the game is unable to do all needed calculations in the wanted 0.01667 real-time seconds. The "show-fps"
debug option
allows to see the current UPS which can be used to estimate how long a tick currently takes.
Seconds
As stated above, there should always be 60 ticks in every second, so 1 in-game second equals 60 in-game ticks. The 60 to 1 ratio is also applied when the game runs at lower speeds, so an in-game second can take longer than a real-time second.
Days
Juxtaposition of day and night.
An in-game day on
Nauvis
lasts 25200 ticks or 7 in-game minutes.
The light varies throughout the day in a cycle consisting of 4 phases:
| Phase Name | Internal name | Behaviour | Time of day at start | Time of day at end | Duration (in ticks) | Duration (in seconds) |
| ---------- | ------------- | ----------- | -------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------- | --------------------- |
| day | dawn | fully light | 0.75 | 0.25 | 12600 | 210 |
| sunset | dusk | darkening | 0.25 | 0.45 | 5040 | 84 |
| night | evening | fully dark | 0.45 | 0.55 | 2520 | 42 |
| sunrise | morning | lightening | 0.55 | 0.75 | 5040 | 84 |
------------- day -------><----- sunset ----->< night -><----- sunrise ----><-------- day ------------
% 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 95 100
|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
During sunset, the light level decreases linearly from fully light to fully dark. During sunrise, it increases linearly from dark to light. This linear slope does not necessarily apply to the values returned by
LuaSurface.darkness
. During night time,
players
will passively activate their flashlights (or headlights if in a
vehicle
), and placed
lamps
will turn on automatically if powered.
Note: The actual time between phases can vary +/- a tick due to rounding errors. | wiki | https://wiki.factorio.com/Time_-_Factorio_Wiki |

Enemies
are creatures that want to
harm
the
player
. They are the native inhabitants of the extraterrestrial worlds on which the player is operating. Enemies show up on the map as red dots.
On
Nauvis
, the enemies are arthropods which live in organic nests. They are encountered in three species: Biters, Spitters, and Worms (though the nickname "Biters" is often used collectively for all of them).
More enemies can be encountered on other planets with the
Space Age
expansion. On the planet
Gleba
, there are pentapods which come in three variants: Wrigglers, Strafers, and Stompers. On the planet
Vulcanus
, there are the Demolishers.
Each species comes in a range of sizes, where larger specimens have more health and do more damage.

Biters
Biters are one of two main antagonists in the base game. They come in four sizes: small, medium, big and behemoth. In the beginning of a game, there will only be the small ones. With increasing
pollution
, they will become bigger, related to the enemy's
evolution
. As common sense may suggest, their method of attack is a straightforward charge to "bite" things.

Spitters
Spitters
are much like
biters
and only appear slightly later on in the game as the evolution factor increases. Their main difference from biters is their ranged attack. Using predictive aiming, they spit a stream of acid at enemies which leaves behind a puddle of acid where it hits the ground. Due to the spitters' predictive aiming, the acid stream can be dodged by suddenly changing walking directions or standing still.
[1]
Both the stream and the puddle of acid deal damage over time and slow down players and vehicles. Most entities of the game have a much lower resistance to acid than other damage types (including
turrets
and
armor
), so spitters are effectively more potent against the player and their factories. Their behavior and size classification are the same as with biters, but their health is universally lower and they are resistant exclusively against explosives, with no physical resistance.

Worms
The Worms are natural allies of biters and spitters and will attack the player if they get close enough with an attack similar to spitters'. They act like static
turrets
and will not follow attackers. They rely on high damage, great range and splash damage to keep the player away from the worms and the nests they protect, but either one of these advantages can be overcome. Unlike other enemies, they are also highly resistant to fire. They will spit acid at the player, which can also leave acidic puddles on the ground that can still damage players and vehicles, as well as slow them both down and leave a brief acidic, damaging effect for a few seconds. However, placed buildings and tiles are unaffected by the acid puddles, but still take damage normally by the acid projectile.
Worms come in 4 sizes, their power increasing with size. Like biters and spitters, behemoth, big and medium worms spawning is influenced by the evolution factor. Worms are only created during enemy expansion when a certain evolution factor requirement is fulfilled. This is 0.3 for the medium worm, 0.5 for the big worm and 0.9 for the behemoth worm. Below these evolution factors, worms can only be created by the map generation. In map generation, the game restricts higher tier worms behind the distance from the starting point. The further away the player goes from the starting area, the stronger the worms become.

Wrigglers
Wrigglers are the biter equivalents of the planet Gleba, as they are standard melee enemies. True to their name, they flail and squirm their digits to move around and attack. Much like how biters and spitters spawn from nests, wrigglers spawn from egg rafts. Destroying egg rafts will spawn a group of more premature wrigglers, which are wrigglers that slowly lose health over time until they die. Strafers can launch flying versions of premature wrigglers at their target.
Killing strafers and stompers can summon even more premature wrigglers. The wrigglers that spawn from the corpses of strafers and stompers will match the size of the larger enemy that was killed. For example, killing a small strafer or stomper will spawn small premature wriggers, while killing a medium strafer or stomper will spawn medium premature wrigglers.

Strafers
Native to the planet Gleba, strafers are large yet scrawny five-legged pentapod creatures with the unique behavior of constantly circling around players while attacking them, rather than making a beeline straight for the player, unlike any other type of enemy in the game. They will fire flying premature wrigglers toward the player, essentially adding more enemies to the fight.

Stompers
Native to the planet Gleba, stompers are extremely large, five-legged pentapod creatures with limbs that look similar to a starfish, and seem to have natural, jagged exoskeleton armor that provides high resistances to many types of damage. They are very powerful melee enemies that use their brute force to attack
players
by simply stomping toward them, while spitting a close-ranged acid that slows down players and
Vehicles
. Their large size and high damage can destroy buildings instantly. They will spawn premature wrigglers upon death.

Demolishers
Native to the planet Vulcanus, demolishers are horrendously large worm-like creatures that roam across the land and lava. Each individual demolisher patrols a defined territory, and building structures in their territory will disturb them and cause them to attack.
Demolishers have three types of offense. On physical contact they do high damage to the player, and instantly destroy buildings and cliffs. They release a smoke cloud that slows the player and damages any nearby bots. And at range, they cause explosions to erupt from the ground, Due to their high damage resistances and extremely fast health regeneration, killing them requires advanced and upgraded weaponry, or massive quantities of bullets. They are completely immune to the
slowdown capsule's
effect.
Once killed, they leave behind remains similar to that of black volcanic rock, which contain
tungsten ore
.

Nests
Nests in the wild will have their max health increase with evolution factor exponentially, up to 10 times their starting health.
Biter and spitter nests can be captured by firing a
capture bot rocket
from a
rocket launcher
at a nest. After the nest is captured, it must be given
bioflux
to maintain and continuously create
biter eggs
. If the nest is not maintained, it will slowly lose 1 health per second, but when fed, it will gain 1 health per second.

Expansions
Every 4-60 minutes, a group of 5-20 biters/spitters will leave their base to create a new base which will consist of as many worms/nests as there are members in the group. This group will search for a suitable spot that's 3-7 chunks away from existing bases. The interval between enemy expansions is global, and the higher enemy evolution, the shorter the interval is on average. Furthermore, with higher evolution, the groups are bigger on average.
Once they have found a suitable spot, each biter/spitter in the group dies and forms a new nest or worm. Forming a new nest or worm will destroy anything that is in the way, which can include members of the expansion group. There is a delay between each member sacrificing itself for to create a worm/nest, so creating the new base from the expansion group can take quite a long time, depending on the group size. Medium worms are only formed if the current evolution is higher than 0.3, big worms only if the current evolution is higher than 0.5 and behemoth worms are only formed if current evolution is higher than 0.9. The game randomly chooses whether to form a new biter nest, spitter nest, small worm, or bigger worm if the evolution factor is high enough.
[2]
Expansions on
Gleba
function mostly similar, except that pentapods only create spawners in marshes, and will
never
create nests on other tiles.
Defense
"Kills" tab on the
production statistics
screen.
Nests spawn biters and spitters freely. However, biters and spitters will only aggressively engage the player's factory if the pollution cloud of the factory reaches a nest because pollution is consumed to send biters or spitters to join the next attack. Every 1 to 10 minutes (random) the mustered biters launch an attack. If not all biters have arrived at the rendezvous point by that time, they will wait up to an additional 2 minutes for stragglers. The attack then proceeds to their target over the shortest path possible, accounting for terrain, but not for player entities that could pose an obstacle (like
walls
).
If there is a clear path somewhere around those obstacles, the biters will attempt to go around. If there is no clear passage or a clear passage would mean deviating too far from the original course, the biters will attack whatever is in their way to go through. This can be exploited to an extent; creating mazes at regular intervals along a barrier can direct the biters through a gauntlet not dissimilar to tower defense.
However, if a biter comes in proximity of a
military unit or structure
, it will prioritize these and attempt to immediately attack them instead, again trying to reach the new target over the shortest possible path with no too great detours, if possible.
Evolution
Spawn chances of biters from biter spawners by evolution factor.
Spawn chances of spitters from spitter spawners by evolution factor.
Weight graph of both spawners by evolution factor. The values shown are primarily for indicating when certain types start and stop spawning, for actual chances refer to the tables or other charts.
The evolution factor is a global variable that determines what kind of biters will be spawned. You can check the variable in the dev console via the following command (does not disable achievements):
/evolution
The evolution factor goes from 0 (not evolved at all) to 1 (maximal evolution). The evolution factor can only increase.
This command also provides percentages for the three sources; each one is the percent of the (unsquashed) total evolution that is contributed by that source.
Besides choosing what kind of biter will be spawned, the evolution factor also influences the spawning interval. This interval (
spawning_cooldown
in the
enemy-spawner
definition) is interpolated between 360 (0 evolution) and 150 (1 evolution) game ticks (= 6 to 2.5 seconds).
Methods of increasing
The evolution factor is increased by three kinds of events:
The passage of time very slightly increases the evolution factor.
The global
pollution production
increases the evolution factor.
Destroying
nests
significantly increases the evolution factor.
The default settings are:
| Source per | Variable inenemy_evolution | Evolution increase | Pollution equivalent |
| ----------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------ | -------------------- |
| Second | time_factor | 0.000004 | 267/minute |
| Destroyed enemy spawner | destroy_factor | 0.002 | 2222 |
| 1 Pollution unit | pollution_factor | 0.0000009 | 1 |
Note that all spawners (not worms) generate the same amount of evolution when destroyed.
These values can be set during
world generation
: the values in the dialog box are multiplied by 10^-7 for time and pollution, and 10^-5 for spawner destruction. In game, they can be found in
game.map_settings.enemy_evolution
, though checking or modifying them is considered using cheats.
Pollution production is the total pollution produced by
buildings
, not the pollution spreading on the map, so it is not reduced by trees or other absorbers.
e.g. : 10 boilers produce 300 pollution in one minute, raising the evolution factor by around 0.00027 in that minute.
After totaling up all the evolution from these sources, this quantity is squashed to fit in the range
[0, 1)
by applying
evolution_factor = total_evolution / (1 + total_evolution)
.
Equivalently, marginal increases in evolution are reduced by multiplying the increase by
(1 - evolution_factor)²
. So for instance destroying enemy spawners in the beginning of the game results in increase of evolution factor by 0.002 while doing this when the evolution factor is 0.5 the increase is only 0.0005.
This also means that the evolution factor approaches 1 asymptotically - generally, increases past 0.9 or so are
very
slow and the number never actually reaches 1.0.

Spawn chances by evolution factor
The probability charts show the chances of each type of biter/spitter for each spawner at all evolution levels.
Advanced: Evolution factor components and computation
This section has charts plotting the individual evolution factor components and discusses possibilities for manually estimating the evolution factor.
1. Single-component evolution factor increase with time
2. Single-component evolution factor increase with destroyed spawners
3. Single-component evolution factor increase with pollution
Notes
Data from version 1.1.50.
All charts end at approximately an evolution factor of 0.90.
The calculation steps for time and spawner kills match those used by the game, so these charts should be accurate. The pollution chart assumes a pollution production of 1000 units per second, and due to the recursive nature of the chart values will slightly diverge at different pollution rates. The effect of this is negligible for any reasonable amount pollution production, however.
Given that the game reports the actual evolution factor (console:
/evolution
) whenever the player wishes, these charts are intended primarily to help estimate the impact of planned base expansions and similar activities on the evolution factor's future development.
Comments
These charts (click to enlarge) represent the situation where each evolution factor component (time, pollution, destroyed spawners) is the
only
component contributing to the evolution factor in that entire game. They are therefore
not realistic
, as in a typical game all three components will contribute, some at varying times and intensities.
Because of how contributions to the evolution factor (EF) are calculated (multiplied by
(1 - current EF)
), it is
not
possible to simply add the values indicated by these charts for a game's time passed, pollution generated, and / or spawners destroyed so far to retrieve the total evolution factor.
For example, if 24 hours have passed (single-component EF =~ 0.25), 200,000 pollution units were released (single-component EF =~ 0.15), and 400 spawners were destroyed (single-component EF =~ 0.45), the actual evolution factor will
not
be (0.25 + 0.15 + 0.45 =) ~0.85.
However, the evolution factor will always be
less
than the sum of all individual components as indicated by these charts, and
at least
as high as the highest individual component. Thus, using the values from above, the EF will be
at least
0.35 and
less than
0.85. A smarter approach is required to compute the current evolution factor.
Individual components
The individual components of evolution can be approximated from
/evolution
:
Given the evolution factor, the unsquashed evolution is
unsquashed = evolution_factor / (1 - evolution_factor)
. Multiply this by the percentage for a given component to get its approximate unsquashed contribution. Of course, total pollution and spawner kills can also be found on the
production statistics
screen, and time passed can be found using the
/time
command, so it's not fully necessary.
The actual factors can be found in
game.forces.enemy.evolution_factor_by_time
,
...evolution_factor_by_killing_spawners
, and
...evolution_factor_by_pollution
, if you don't mind disabling achievements.
Trivia
Despite their drastically different origins, enemies from different planets will always act as allies against the player. They will even reside around each other's nests when not attacking players, even if the type of nest does not match that of the residing creature. Even demolishers will circle around nests without harming or destroying them. Since enemies only spawn on their respective planets, this is not normally seen in gameplay, unless these creatures are placed near each other in the
map editor
.
Demolishers
were originally designed for
Fulgora
, but was later moved to
Vulcanus
because it was too similar to the
Dune Franchise
.

Solid fuel
is a kind of
fuel
and is processed in a
chemical plant
. One unit of solid fuel contains 12MJ of energy, three times the energy value of coal.
Besides being useful as fuel in all
burner devices
, solid fuel is also used to produce
rocket fuel
, which is a component of
rocket parts
built in the
rocket silo
.
Recipes
Solid Fuel can be created from
heavy oil
,
light oil
or
petroleum gas
.
Light oil
has the best oil to solid fuel ratio (10:1). Cracking heavy oil to light oil first changes the ratio for heavy oil to 13:1 (from 20:1).
On
Aquilo
, the
ammonia
recipe is by far the most efficient. With no productivity bonus, optimally converting the products of advanced oil processing to solid fuel will result in needing approximately 10.55
crude oil
per solid fuel, whereas solid fuel from ammonia needs only 6 crude oil per solid fuel.
| Process | Input | Output | Produced by |

| | 10+1 | 1 | |
| | 20+1 | 1 | |
| | 20+1 | 1 | |
| | 6+15+0.5 | 1 | + |
Solid fuel is also obtained from recycling
scrap
, which can be mined on
Fulgora
.
History

Scrap
is a resource found on
Fulgora
. It needs to be recycled by hand or in the
recycler
to get usable products.
When traveling further from the drop location the scrap piles will
not
get more dense with ore. The most dense scrap piles are found under the Fulgoran vault ruins.
| Item | Percent |
| --------------------- | ------- |
| Iron gear wheel | 20% |
| Solid fuel | 7% |
| Concrete | 6% |
| Ice | 5% |
| Stone | 4% |
| Steel plate | 4% |
| Battery | 4% |
| Copper cable | 3% |
| Advanced circuit | 3% |
| Processing unit | 2% |
| Low density structure | 1% |
| Holmium ore | 1% |
The probability for each resource is rolled independently; it is possible for a single craft to produce multiple resources.
Further recycling of these products allows the player to also obtain the following resources out of scrap:
| Item | Recycled from |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------ |

In addition to being a single-player game, Factorio also supports multiplayer, allowing many
players
to cooperate and assist each other, or work against each other in pvp. This page documents how to set up a multiplayer game, how to join one, and the Multiplayer Admin features for managing other users and the server. By default, multiplayer games run the CO-OP
freeplay scenario
where all players work together to launch a rocket with a satellite into space. Other scenarios, including PvP maps, are available for download from the
Maps and Scenarios forum

Setting Up a Multiplayer Game
A multiplayer game.
Multiplayer games can be joined, hosted while playing, or hosted by a dedicated server. Multiplayer games can be advertised to other players on the same LAN or worldwide.
To start playing a multiplayer game, select the Multiplayer button from the main menu. Then, choose one of these options to host and play:
Host new game
: Specify the desired scenario, adjust the
map generator
settings, and set the server visibility. The server visibility determines how your game will be advertised to other players. You can choose from:
Public
: Your game will be listed on the public games list.
Steam
: Enables or disables the "Join Game" feature through Steam.
LAN
: Your game will be listed on your local network.
Host saved game
: Pick a saved game from the list and set the server visibility as above.
To join an existing game, choose one of these options:
Browse public games
: Search for and join any public game that meets your criteria.
Browse LAN games
: Join any game that is hosted on your local network.
Connect to address
: Join any game by entering the server’s IP address. This option is useful if the host does not use any server visibility.
Notes and tips:
All game instances need the installation of
exactly the same
game-versions and mods.
Factorio servers use port
34197
. The port can be changed in the
config
file.
Factorio uses
UDP only
. The game builds its own "reliable delivery" layer built on UDP to deal with packet loss and reordering issues.
Make sure you configure your router's port forwarding correctly for port
34197
.
Make sure your router does not
randomize the source port
on packets outbound from
34197
. Some routers do this and require
additional configuration
to prevent it.
Make sure there is no firewall or anti-virus blocking the UDP-packets.
The hard limit for the number of players is
65,535
. However, practical limit for this is much lower, popular streamers have managed to get well over a hundred players.
Dedicated/Headless server
A dedicated (or headless) server can be started using the --start-server command line option. You can run factorio --help to get a list of all command-line arguments that Factorio accepts. Any version of the game can be run in headless mode, though for Linux servers it may be preferable to use the Headless version of the game, which does not include graphics to reduce download size. This can be found on the
factorio.com Downloads page
.
In the headless mode:
Graphics are not initialized (faster start up, less memory usage, works on completely headless servers)
Game starts immediately and loads a save given as a parameter to the command
The server has no character in game
Game is paused while there are no players connected (though this can be overridden using the no-auto-pause option in the server-settings.json)
Saves the game on exit (and autosaves normally)
0.13 onwards expects --start-server to be followed by a path to a save file.
You will need to create your save file before you start the server, as the dedicated server REQUIRES a save file to be provided. This can easily be done using the --create command-line argument. For example:
./bin/x64/factorio --create ./saves/my-save.zip # This creates a new save, as if by clicking the New Game button in the GUI
./bin/x64/factorio --start-server ./saves/my-save.zip # This starts a server that will host the file created on the previous line
There are several JSON configuration files that factorio can make use of to change the server and map settings:
map-gen-settings
to set parameters used by the
map generator
such as width and height, ore patch frequency and size, etc.
map-settings
to control
pollution
spread,
biter expansion
and
evolution
, and more
server-settings
which consolidated several command-line options into a single file
Example files for each of these parameters are included in the data subdirectory, and are also visible on Wube's github here:
https://github.com/wube/factorio-data
The --map-gen-settings and --map-settings options must be used with the --create option when you create a new map. For example:
./bin/x64/factorio --create saves/my-save.zip --map-gen-settings my-map-gen-settings.json --map-settings my-map-settings.json
Starting the factorio server requires you to specify the location of the server-settings.json file. By default this is in the factorio data folder. For example to start factorio using the most recent saved map, you would run:
./bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest --server-settings ./data/server-settings.json
On windows, it may be useful to start the server with a .bat file. The bat file should have the following content:
start /wait .\bin\x64\factorio.exe --start-server-load-latest --server-settings .\data\server-settings.json
See
Command_line_parameters
for more command line parameters.
Setting up a Linux Factorio server
Note:
Factorio now requires
glibc
version 2.31, but CentOS/RHEL 7 only ship with version 2.17 so this guide will no longer work without
manually compiling
glibc
2.31
.
This step-by-step guide has been verified on fresh CentOS 7 and RHEL 7 installs but should be applicable with little to no changes on most distributions.
The guide assumes you will install the headless server under
/opt/factorio
, adjust paths according to your own setup. We will also suggest that you run the Factorio server as a separate user to harden security of your setup.
Note that there are two distinct packages for Linux that can be used to run a headless server. First is the usual Linux download, that contains the full game. The other is the special
headless package
. The headless package does not contain any files irrelevant for a pure server, such as graphics and sounds. It is also not linked against libraries that may not be present on a server machine, such as Xlib, libGL or libasound. This option should be selected if running in a 3rd party hosted server.
This guide does not handle firewall/port forwarding since this can be done in various ways on Linux (make sure to read up how this is done as a Linux admin on your particular distribution)
Basic installation
Download the selected package -- either full game or the headless package -- and upload the Linux tar.gz or tar.xz package to your server /tmp
Extract the package in /tmp to /opt/factorio
$cd /opt/
$sudo tar -xzf /tmp/factorio.tar.gz # Use the correct file name. It includes the factorio version number
$sudo tar -xJf /tmp/factorio.tar.xz # if you downloaded a .tar.xz file (ver 0.15.x)
Add a new user to your system and assign ownership of the factorio dir to it (please, do not run as the root user, sudo may be needed)
$useradd factorio
$chown -R factorio:factorio /opt/factorio
Try the binary
$su factorio
$/opt/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server savename
As long as it fails saying it cannot find/open the savename.zip you are set! Just upload a save from your own computer and put it in the /opt/factorio/saves directory, or use the --create ./saves/newgame.zip argument.
How to list a server-hosted game on the matching server
In order to publish the game to the matching server, Factorio needs to be given some more information than just the save file location. These information are provided in a
server settings file
.
To create a server settings file, look at the example file located in
data/server-settings.example.json
in the Factorio
Application directory
. The recommended way is to make a copy of this example file and edit the copy.
The following values can be changed:
Name
This will be the name under which the server will be listed in the server browser
Description
A description of your server. May contain up to 5000 characters.
MP server description
Tags
A list of game tags
Max Players
Allows you to limit the number of players that can be connected to the server at the same time. If you want no limit, just set max_players to 0.
Visibility for server browser: May be either public, LAN or hidden.
Public: The server will appear in the public server list. This requires the login credentials below to be filled in.
LAN: The server will not appear in the public server list, but will be available through the Play On LAN button
Hidden: Clients will have to connect using the server's IP address
User credentials using a username and password or authentication token (found on the factorio website or in the player-data.json): These are necessary if you wish to make the server public. Otherwise, they can be left empty.
For security reasons it is recommended to use authentication token as this document is stored as plain text. Though it should be noted that an authentication token is a sensitive piece of information as well, and you are well-advised to keep it secret.
Server Password
Field name is game_password
Whether to verify user identity
(There are additional values in v0.14 of factorio.)
Technical Implementation Details
Notes about some technical details surrounding multiplayer have been published by the development team in several Friday Facts blog posts:
Lock step architecture
Client-server connections
NAT punching, introduced in 0.13
DNS SRV Records
Factorio supports
DNS SRV records
since 1.1.67.
This makes it easier to have multiple Factorio servers on a single host and allow users to connect to them with distinct subdomains instead of having to enter port numbers.
The service name is
_factorio
and it only supports
_udp
protocol.
Example:
Domain: subdomain.domain.tld
IP: 192.0.2.2
Port: 10002
DNS records:
subdomain.domain.tld IN A 192.0.2.2
_factorio._udp.subomain.domain.tld IN SRV 0 0 10002 subomain.domain.tld.
Now a Factorio client connecting to
subdomain.domain.tld
will actually connect to
subdomain.domain.tld:10002
Example screenshot of config in Cloud Flare:
Log Entries:
Factorio will log a "DNS SRV lookup returned [...]" message when it found a SRV record for the given domain
With verbose logging Factorio will also log "DNS SRV lookup for [domain] didn't return any usable records" when there's no SRV record
Miscellaneous Tips
The key for
console commands
is also used initiate chat in multiplayer. To execute a command instead of chatting, you need to type
/c
before the command. Commands executed are
visible to all players
. Additionally, the multiplayer game must have been started with commands allowable for commands to work.
Set the player's color using the command
/color r g b
r, g and b are for red, green and blue respectively (possible values are between 0 and 1, use
this site
to convert colors to rgb numbers).
To give yourself admin access, you need to create a server-adminlist.json in the same directory as factorio-current.log. The file should contain a list of admins, like so:
[ "user1", "user2" ]
This file will be created if you promote a player through the console.
Joining a Multiplayer game
As of version 0.13, players no longer necessarily have to port-forward to play with others. Players may join each other through Steam, or by just the port-forwarded host.
Players wishing to join a game may do so in multiple ways:
Joining by directly inputting a public IP and port into Factorio.
Selecting the server from the active public server menu.
Joining through Steam's services.
Playing a local LAN game.
Joining by IP
To join a multiplayer game by IP, you will need to know the public IP of a valid server. You can find this through social media, websites, or by word of mouth. After acquiring the IP and port, simply go to play -> Multiplayer -> Connect to server, and provide all the information it asks for.
If the server has been set up correctly to accept public connections, you should be able to join the game.
Joining via server list
Factorio's devs keep a list of all public servers that declare themselves to the service, allowing players to join directly through Factorio. Most of these servers will be password-requiring, but many completely public servers can be connected to. To join via server list, go to Play -> Multiplayer -> Browse public games. Provide your Factorio.com login if asked, and a list of public servers will appear. Simply select one.
Joining through Steam
Steam provides a "game invite" system, simply use that to join. You can find more info about how to use steam in it's documentation.
This is the most recommended way for the average player to use multiplayer with their friends, as it allows Steam to handle everything
.
Joining a local LAN game
If you have some friends on the same internet connection as you (in the same building or network), you may play a LAN game. Simply go to Play -> Multiplayer -> Play on LAN.
Connecting to a Server Behind NAT
Factorio requires that the server (in client-server mode) have a publicly accessible IP address or that all players are on the same LAN. If you are behind NAT, you must set up port forwarding (
see above
for port number) or use virtual LAN software such as Hamachi or Evolve.
Multiplayer games will be launched in client-server mode (also
multiplayer forwarding
mode). In this mode, all clients send their network traffic to the server and the server forwards the traffic to the other clients. The advantage of this is that it allows games where some players are inside a LAN and others are outside. The disadvantage may be slightly more lag as packets must travel an extra hop (through the server).

PvP
In PvP mode, players can be on different forces. Each force can have one (free-for-all) or more players (teams). Each force has its own independent research progression. Additionally, each force's
Military units and structures
will attack other players as enemies, unless a cease fire is set. Note that, depending on the scenario, cease fires may be unidirectional — setting a cease fire with an opposing force does not guarantee a cease fire from them in return.
To start a PvP game, you can select the 'PvP' scenario from the 'Play' menu, or download a custom scenario which also supports PvP.
After downloading a PvP scenario, you need to move it to your application directory, and create the multiplayer game using the scenario.
Download the scenario and place the scenario directory in the
scenarios
directory within your
user data directory
.
Launch Factorio
Click
Play
Click
Multiplayer
Click
Scenario
Choose the PvP scenario you want and click
Create
Choose latency and other settings, then click
Play
Other players can now join the game
Forces
Forces can be manually created via the console. This allows any map/scenario to be used for PvP. This may not be as convenient as a pre-made PvP scenario, as there will be no way for players to turn on/off cease fires other than through the console.
Each created force has its own research progression and different forces may attack each other.
The console commands for setting up and controlling forces are below:
game.create_force("Name")
--Creates the force "Name"
game.players["Player_name"].force = game.forces["Name"]
--Sets this player to the new force
game.forces["Name"].set_cease_fire("Other_force_name", true)
--Sets the new force ceasefire to the "other force"
game.forces["Name"].set_spawn_position({x = 10, y = 20}, game.surfaces[1])
--Sets the spawn position of the force
game.print(#game.forces)
--Prints the number of forces
for name, force in pairs (game.forces) do
game.print(name)
end
--Prints the name of all the forces
The ability of players and entities belonging to one force to interact with structures belonging to another, non-friendly force is limited. However, some types of interactions are still possible:
Manual pickup from belts
Players can pick up items traveling along a transport belt that belongs to an opposing force. Note however that this can't be automated: Inserters will
not
take items from an opposing force's belts.
Belt network connection
Belts will connect to each other regardless of force membership, so it's possible to extend an opposing force's belt line, and items will flow to them. It is also possible to side-load into, and place items onto (with inserters) an opposing force's belt line.
Fluid network connection
Pipes (and storage tanks, and pumps, &c) will connect to each other regardless of force membership. For example, it's possible to pump fluids out of or into a storage tank belonging to an opposing force.
Power leeching
Players can draw power from an opposing force's electric network, by building structures inside the coverage area of a power pole belonging to an opposing force. Power poles that you build next to a power pole belonging to an opposing force will automatically connect to it, but will be impossible to connect or disconnect manually.
History
Narrative history
Because of the potentially immense amount of activity on a map, the game engine utilizes a
lock step architecture
. All instances of the game run full simulations of the entire world and only player actions are transferred across the network.
Multiplayer games were introduced to Factorio with version 0.11.0. The only connection method available was peer-to-peer mode which meant every player had to be able to directly communicate with every other player. In version 0.12.4, a client-server mode of communication was introduced in which the server (either a dedicated one or the player who hosted the game) relays messages to all peers. This means that direct connection between all players is no longer necessary. As of version 0.13, P2P connecting is completely removed.
As of version 0.12.0, the game features "latency hiding" mechanics where the game simulates some of the player's actions locally to make some common interactions (such as moving the player's character) more fluid. Not every action is a part of latency hiding – most notably, car or train driving and shooting are not a part of it.

expansion exclusive feature.
Yumako mash
is an intermediate product crafted from ingredients found on
Gleba
. Creating yumako mash is also the only way to acquire
yumako seeds
to plant new
yumako trees
. When consumed, it instantly grants the
player
80 health points, along with 16 health points per second for the next 12 seconds. This effect has a 16 seconds cooldown.
The 2% chance of getting seeds means that on average, a mature yumako tree will yield 1 yumako seed. To get an increasing number of seeds, yumako processing should be done with
productivity
bonuses, either in the
Biochamber
or with
productivity modules
. Or both.

The
explosive uranium cannon shells
are an advanced ammunition type for the
tank
along with
uranium cannon shells
. Once they are made available, they surpass their
regular
variant; their damage and
piercing power
is increased, leaning more towards physical damage improvement. Since regular shells are still specifically required to manufacture uranium variants, any previously manufactured stockpile can be "upgraded" without waste.
The
piercing power
of the shells has little practical use in spite of its improvement, which can be made insignificant since the enemy may often "outgrow" it by the time this ammunition is obtained. Its raw damage advantage otherwise found in the non-uranium explosive shell is also no longer as substantial; because of the kinetic energy nature of uranium-based ammunition, uranium cannon shells receive a much greater improvement overall, "catching up" in terms of raw damage potential, making explosive shell use on explosive-resistant enemies like
worms
,
nests
and especially
spitters
even more discouraging. However, this imbalance can be limited through
research
, and its area-of-effect damage has undeniable benefits.

Space Age
expansion exclusive feature.
A
captive biter spawner
is a special production building that is initially unlocked on
Gleba
and is used to produce
biter eggs
. A captive biter spawner has no
module
slots, is unaffected by
beacons
, and cannot be connected to either circuit or logistic networks. A captive spawner cannot be removed by the player or
construction robots
, but can be destroyed via weapon fire, at which point it will spawn a small biter.

Biter egg production
These buildings are solely used to produce
biter eggs
, for which they are the only source in the game. Producing biter eggs does not require setting a recipe nor providing any ingredients other than a constant influx of fuel in the form of
bioflux
. A captive biter spawner can hold a maximum of 100 biter eggs, which they produce at a rate of 5 eggs every 10 seconds, or 0.5 /s. The production cycle continues when the output slot is full, even though no additional eggs are being produced. Biter eggs held in the output slot will not start to spoil until removed.
Obtainment
They can be obtained in two different ways. They can be "built" by firing a
capture bot rocket
at a
biter spawner
on
Nauvis
, which will slowly transform the spawner into a captive one. Alternatively, after reaching
Aquilo
and researching the relevant
technology
, the player can craft captive biter spawners themselves, which can be manually placed. While in the player's inventory or another container, a captive spawner has a spoilage time of 30 minutes, at which point it will turn into a behemoth biter.
Food consumption
A captive spawner will lose health at a rate of 1/second, unless fed with a supply of
bioflux
. If a captive spawner's health reaches zero, it will transform back into a normal spawner and will have to be captured again.
Previously captured and then starved
biter spawner
cannot be targeted by
turrets
,
personal laser defense
or
spidertron
's automatic rocket launchers, but it can still consume
pollution
and spawn biters which are affected by the
evolution factor
.
Bioflux
is used for food. One item of bioflux has an energy value of 6 MJ, and since the captive biter spawner consumes 100 kW of food, each item of bioflux will last for exactly one minute. With one normal quality item of bioflux lasting for two hours before it
spoils
, this means that 120 items of bioflux of the same age may be consumed by a single captive biter spawner before any of them spoil.
Quality
Captive biter spawners with a higher quality level will
not
yield higher quality
biter eggs
.
In case a captive biter spawner reverts back into a biter spawner for any reason it will retain the quality it had as a captive biter spawner. This resulting spawner will spawn biters of the same quality, which will have the capability of forming expansion groups that will also retain their quality level upon successful expansion - creating more quality biter or
spitter
spawners, and even quality
worms
. Failing to contain such reverted spawners can lead to the planet becoming populated by higher quality enemies.

Barrels
can be used to store and transport 50 units of various fluids. Since they are solid objects, they can be used as an alternative to pipes, once
fluid handling
is researched. The barrels themselves are reusable once the fluids are drained.
Barrels stack in groups of 10. A single
cargo wagon
can hold 400 barrels, which gives a capacity of 20,000 units per cargo wagon – 30,000 fewer units than the capacity of a
fluid wagon
.
Empty barrels have a rocket capacity
of 200. Full barrels, regardless of fluid, have a rocket capacity
of 100. As such, a single rocket can carry 5000 units of any fluid which can be barrelled.

Example of use
Barrels are useful in situations where pipes are not available or a bad option, such as oil production far away from your main factory, or when transporting fluids to another planet in
Space Age
. Barrels can be transported with a
belt transport system
or
railway
, by
logistic robots
, via
car
or
tank
, or in the
player
's inventory. A simple example with

Fluid handling
is a technology that gives the player access to more advanced ways to interact with
liquids
, mainly
pumps
and
storage tanks
. It also enables
barrels
with the ability to fill and empty them, providing a way to transport liquids long distances via
belts
or
cargo wagons
. It is also a prerequisite for researching
fluid wagon
, which introduces another way to transport liquids on rail networks.

The
uranium fuel cell
can be burned in a
nuclear reactor
to produce heat, resulting in a
used up uranium fuel cell
. As fuel cells are a nuclear fuel source, they are treated differently from other types of
fuel
and cannot be used in other burner devices or in
vehicles
.
A fuel cell can run a single
nuclear reactor
for 200 seconds. Unlike with steam power, a uranium fuel cell will continue to burn no matter the power draw, so any heat energy not consumed is wasted.

Game-second | Time - Factorio Wiki | [] | Time - Factorio Wiki
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
The concept of
Time
in Factorio is used for many different implements, most notably crafting time and game time.
Crafting time and speed
When hovering over an item recipe, the player may see a clock symbol and a number. This is the amount of time needed to craft the item in seconds at crafting speed 1. The player always crafts at speed 1 while
assembling machines
have different crafting speeds.
Modules
may also affect crafting time, either speeding it up or slowing it down for some other benefit. The player, when handcrafting, crafts with a multiplier of 1, so items that claim to take 10 seconds to craft will take 10 seconds, but an
assembling machine 1
with a multiplier of 0.5 will take 20 seconds. It is important to take this into consideration when creating setups with proper ratios.
Ticks
The base unit of all time inside Factorio. When running at game speed 1, there should always be 60 ticks in every real-time second leading to the figure of 60 updates per second, short UPS. This means that 1 tick should ideally always take 1/60th of a real-time second (0.01667 seconds). However, it is possible to change the
game speed
using mods or console commands, so it is possible that ticks don't take 0.01667 real-time seconds. Furthermore, game speed will automatically slow down when the computer that is running the game is unable to do all needed calculations in the wanted 0.01667 real-time seconds. The "show-fps"
debug option
allows to see the current UPS which can be used to estimate how long a tick currently takes.
Seconds
As stated above, there should always be 60 ticks in every second, so 1 in-game second equals 60 in-game ticks. The 60 to 1 ratio is also applied when the game runs at lower speeds, so an in-game second can take longer than a real-time second.
Days
Juxtaposition of day and night.
An in-game day on
Nauvis
lasts 25200 ticks or 7 in-game minutes.
The light varies throughout the day in a cycle consisting of 4 phases:
| Phase Name | Internal name | Behaviour | Time of day at start | Time of day at end | Duration (in ticks) | Duration (in seconds) |
| ---------- | ------------- | ----------- | -------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------- | --------------------- |
| day | dawn | fully light | 0.75 | 0.25 | 12600 | 210 |
| sunset | dusk | darkening | 0.25 | 0.45 | 5040 | 84 |
| night | evening | fully dark | 0.45 | 0.55 | 2520 | 42 |
| sunrise | morning | lightening | 0.55 | 0.75 | 5040 | 84 |
------------- day -------><----- sunset ----->< night -><----- sunrise ----><-------- day ------------
% 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 95 100
|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
During sunset, the light level decreases linearly from fully light to fully dark. During sunrise, it increases linearly from dark to light. This linear slope does not necessarily apply to the values returned by
LuaSurface.darkness
. During night time,
players
will passively activate their flashlights (or headlights if in a
vehicle
), and placed
lamps
will turn on automatically if powered.
Note: The actual time between phases can vary +/- a tick due to rounding errors. | wiki | https://wiki.factorio.com/Time_-_Factorio_Wiki |

0.10.12
Bugfixes
Fixed that it wasn't possible to set a filter.
Fixed that fast replacing moved items primary to character, it made upgrading chests and machines not practical. Instead, when fast replacing, the content is always transferred to the new entity, when it can't fit, it transfers to player, and if it can't be moved to the player as well it makes the good old item bomb.
The right UI container is slightly larger, so it can contain the robot info without enlarging.
The worm turrets are not taken into consideration when deciding enemy expansions.
Fixed that enemy expansion candidates were not updated correctly when base was destroyed.
Fixed that combat robots were on the map/minimap.
Fixed extra mousebuttons over GUI behavior (
more
).
Balancing
The maximum distance of enemy expansion was increased from 5 to 7.
Scripting
makefile, takescreenshot and removepath now use logger to report failures, minor fixes in the path verification

Fixed crash related to enemy pathfinding.
Fixed of wrongly reported amount of items the player got from mining machines/containers (
more
).
Fixed entity icons of defender/distractor/destroyer robots.
Fixed that deconstructing transport-belt-to-ground would delete items they held (
more
).
Fixed that deconstructing inserters holding items would delete items they held (
more
).
The notifications of destroyed buildings are created only when someone other than player (or his machines) destroyed the building. This affects player destroying his buildings manually and also land-mine destroying itself on impact.
Fixed, that slightly more robots than needed could be send to empty provider chest (
more
).
When unresearching (using script) the toolbelt, the items that can't fit it are inserted back into the player's inventory (
more
).
Recipes changed by mods will be refreshed to original value automatically when mod is removed (
more
).
Fixed crash, when opening save that contained mods that are not already present, that had the active crafting group selected to group presented by the mod (so it is not present anymore), the crash occurred when the crafting menu was opened.
Fixed that items were moved into quickbar even when there was already stack of the type in quickbar (currently selected in hand) (
more
)
Fixed the missing check of gun->ammo compatibility when putting the gun there using shift-click or when the gun was crafted (
more
).
Fixed that the visualization radius of throwables (the green circle) wasn't visible when the player was in vehicle (
more
).
Fixed that the inventory didn't get sorted after the container couldn't be mined as all the items couldn't fit the inventory (
more
).
Fixed that when enemy unit was modded to attack by destroying everything including itself crashed the game (
more
)
Fixed that the player mined item event was not called when he got just part of the inventory (
more
).
Fixed that it wasn't possible to start fullscreen game in other than the primary window. There is now settings in config in category [graphics] section: preferred-screen-index. Changing the value changes the display adapter (monitor) that is used. If many people use this feature in the future, we can put it in the graphics settings ingame as well (
more
).
The number input box "consumes" only numeric input, other keys for walking or closing the still works when the field is selected. This is true as long as these are not mapped to numbers, bad luck in that case (
more
)

more
).
Debugging
Added option to turn off vertical synchronization of the display (v-sync).

GUI
Progress bar showing electricity availability is now colored. Green for all required energy available, yellow, more than half, red less than half)
Modding
Progress bar style enables to specify different colors for different ranges of values.
Scripting
Added game.getchunks() iterator and game.ischunkgenerated(...) and game.player.force.ischunkcharted() methods
Pre player mined item event is called really before the player starts to get items from the inventory. Note that the change means, that the event is called even when the mine can eventually fail (not enough inventory to hold all the items). This means, that there might we could also other some other event, that will be called only when the entity is really going to be removed.

more
).
Removed so called "item bomb" effect. It happened When the player tried to a mine chest that contained items that couldn't fit his inventory. Instead of dropping all the items on the ground around (which could be A LOT of items in some cases), the mining just fails, while player gets as many items from the chest as possible.
Fixed performance when cancelling large crafting queues and the player has no room to hold the items. This also fixes performance when a loot-enabled entity dies and drops a large amount of loot.
Fixed bug when sometimes rail segments were messed up by placing rail signals from blueprint (
more
). Also blueprint which would place two signals next two each other cannot be placed.
Fixed bug when train was self-damaging when driving backwards at the end of the rail (
more
). This also fixes the resulting crash when the wagon was destroyed.
Fixed bug when train with 2 locomotives with opposite directions was not moving backwards when first locomotive had no coal.
Fixed that laser turrets were not working when built near chunk boundaries (
more
).
Saving the crc in the replay only once per second, so the replay (and save) size shouldn't grow so fast.

more
).

more
).
Fixed that construction/logistic robots inside a network that was removed weren't re-assigned to the closest logistic network (
more
).
The created effect of entities is not applied in map editor, to avoid too much freezed smoke particles at the same time that slows the render (
more
).
Worms don't collide with the world during the dying animation (
more
).
Worms don't show healthbar and don't regenerate health during the dying animation.
Fixed scrolling with sliders in game (
more
).

Using map2scenario no longer resets researched technologies and unlocked recipes.
Migrations are applied even when using map2scenario.
Fixed bug when blueprints were "looting" the items from transport belt to grounds (
more
).
Debugging
Added show_active_chunks debug option, shows which chunks are active on the big map.
Scripting
Fixed that caninsert method ignored set filters (
more
).
Fixed that LuaForce:reset didn't reset all the force modifiers. Namely: inserter stack size bonus, logistic slots, quickBarCount, followingRobotsCount, ghost time to live.
0.10.8

).
Fast replacing assembling machine keeps the direction of the original assembling machine. This is because the common scenario here is to upgrade the assembling machine, rather than use it to change direction of existing machines (
more
).

more
).

more
).
Changes
Health bar for wagons / locomotives rotates with the object (
more
).

More realistic train light drawing (light cone in the front, red light in the back).
Balancing
Wall repair speed is twice the fast.
Translations
Added Catalan translation.

Optimisations
Parallelised map generation, the hiccups when new part of map is generated should be smaller or non-existent.

Space Age
expansion exclusive feature.
The
railgun
is an extremely powerful player-equipped rifle that fires an electromagnetically accelerated projectile at its target, penetrating everything in its path nearly instantly.
Railgun ammo
is the only type of ammunition it can use. The weapon has a very slow firing rate, but makes up for this with its high damage, meaning the
player
must make their shots count when facing down hordes of dangerous
enemies
.
It is also very effective against
demolishers
, because the railgun can snipe through each individual segment, causing massive damage.
Trivia
The weapon was part of the game's data before
Space Age
was released, but was not officially part of normal gameplay until the release of the expansion.

The
roboport
is the resting place for all
construction robots
and
logistic robots
. It emits an area of 50×50 tiles, in which logistic robots can interact with logistic network entities, such as
storage chests
, or
requester chests
. Additionally, a 110×110 tile area is created for construction robots to repair, construct or remove structures. This can be seen by hovering the mouse on a roboport, or logistics chest which is inside the logistic zone.
The smaller
orange
square represents the reach of the logistics network where both logistics and construction robots can move.
The larger
green
square represents the extent of the construction network where only construction robots can move.
Robots placed into the air from the
player's
inventory inside of a roboport's coverage will seek out the nearest roboport to charge and rest.
Two or more roboports can connect to form a
logistic network
, if the borders of the orange logistic areas touch. This is shown by a dotted line running between the two ports. An example of this can be seen on the bottom-right. Non-connected roboports will not share robots.
Similar to the stationary
radar
's nearby scanning, a roboport constantly reveals an area of 5×5 chunks, centered on the chunk the roboport occupies.
Players or
spidertron
equipped with a
personal roboport
or
personal roboport MK2
in their armor can act as a mobile roboport themselves, if they have any robots in their inventory.
Two roboports connecting to form a logistic network. Notice the yellow dotted line indicating a successful bond.

Storage
A roboport contains 7
slots
reserved for 50
robots
of the same type, and another 7 for
repair packs
. Robots and repair packs can be inserted into the roboport with an
inserter
. Furthermore, robots (but not repair packs) can be removed from the roboport with an inserter. Repair packs inside a roboport are available for all robots and requester chests inside the logistic zone of that roboport. Construction bots, when provided with repair packs, will automatically repair all damaged structures inside of a roboport's coverage area.
If a roboport is full of robots, robots attempting to rest will find a different roboport, if one is available.
It's possible to request idle robots from other roboports by configuring corresponding requests in the roboport GUI. This way it's possible to request one type or
quality
of robot, then remove them from the roboport with a filtered inserter, to gradually clean a logistics network from this type of robot.
Roboport GUI
Power usage
Roboports have 4 chargers, which are used to recharge the flying bots. More roboports in a small area will allow for greater charging throughput, if a lot of robots need charging. Robots waiting to be charged will float in place near the roboport and wait their turn.
Robots will not enter a roboport to rest unless they have full charge. Robots with low/no charge can still fly, but will move extremely slowly.

The
Accumulator
stores a limited amount of energy when available production exceeds demand, and releases it in the opposite case. The accumulator can store up to 5 MJ of energy. Its maximum charge/discharge rate is 300 kW. If connected to a
circuit network
, an accumulator will output its level of charge, as an integer from 0 to 100, to a specified signal.

Notes
5MJ of stored energy takes approximately 17s to fully charge/discharge at the maximum rate of 300kW. Read
Time#Seconds
for further time related calculations.
It takes 20 accumulators (100MJ) to maintain 1MW through the night, because the accumulators don't immediately start discharging at the beginning of dusk, see the graph in
this post.
For balanced solar power, every 21 accumulators need to have 25 solar panels supporting them (at 50kW per accumulator)
When discharged above maximum speed by multiple unconnected poles, energy will not be distributed equally (some loads may get 100% demand, others 0%)
May be used to provide a limited amount of power (multiples of maximum charge rate) to a section of the grid.
Produces light when charging and discharging.
Can act as an emergency backup for the factory in case of blackout, until main power supply is restored.
Can be used to power the base at night if it relies heavily on
solar panels
.
Can act to satisfy surging demands of certain loads. If the power usage of one device exceeds production for a few seconds or so, the accumulator can provide power to the grid until said device shuts down or requires a lesser power requirement.
Other uses
Note that if throughput should not be limited, a
power switch
can be used instead.
Isolation of Power Networks
Accumulators
can be used to isolate two separate power networks, which has a number of uses. Since accumulators have a lower delivery priority than any other entity, this guarantees that they only receive energy when you have enough left over after powering all other entities in a network. At the same time, accumulators can also be used to deliver energy in another electrical network, and can charge and discharge at the same time. Consider the following example:
Example of accumulators sharing two separate networks.
(Click to enlarge)
The two power networks A and B are not directly connected to each other: They are connected only through the accumulators, which are shared by both networks. This is accomplished by setting up electric poles for each network connected to the accumulators, then ensuring the sets of poles are not connected to each other (which can be done by crafting a copper wire then dragging it between two connected poles to sever the connection, exactly as is done for disconnecting circuit wires). (As of 2.0, rather than crafted copper wire, the Make Copper Wire create tool in the UI -- near the Red & Green circuit wires -- is used.)
In the above example:
The accumulators will only charge if extra power is being produced by network A or B.
The accumulators will discharge as needed into either network if one is not producing enough power.
Since the maximum input/output rate of an accumulator is 300 kW, power flow between the two networks will be limited to 300 kW times the number of accumulators (1.5 MW in the example).
Note that this isolation is bidirectional: Either network can charge the accumulators, and the accumulators can discharge into either network.
This technique can be used whenever this type of isolation is desired.
Reduction of Energy Consumption in Critical Situations
In particular, one good use for the above technique is to limit electricity consumption in low power situations by isolating non-critical parts of your factory (such as
Radar
,
Labs
,
Electric furnaces
,
electric miners
,
Beacons
, etc.) from critical parts (such as lasers, ammo production, or whatever your priorities are).
To do this, place your main generators and critical components on one network and place your non-critical components on another network, isolating the two as above. Now, two things will happen:
Power will
only
flow to the non-critical network when you are generating a surplus on the main network, and
The rate will always be limited to 300 kW per accumulator.
Because the accumulators will only receive power if you have a surplus on the main network, this will in effect deactivate the low-priority network when electricity is in short supply. This will also limit power consumption of the low priority network if its usage becomes high, for example if you have two factories on a low priority network and usually only one of them runs at a time, if both happen to run they won't consume more than the total limit, they'll just slow down.
Essentially you are saying "only deliver power to these systems if I have enough to spare, and even then don't exceed this delivery rate".
In general this is a technique which works well when you've just researched accumulators and solar panels, but don't have enough resources to build big solar farms and accumulator farms yet.

The
poison capsule
is a basic capsule that creates a large, long-lasting cloud of at the target area, dealing 8 poison damage twice a second, totaling to 320
poison damage
over 20s. The damage from multiple poison capsules can stack. This is one of the most effective ways of removing
trees
.
Poison capsules can be used to effectively kill
worms
as they are stationary. This technique is a relatively safe and cheap way to eliminate clusters of worms - it takes 5 poison capsules to kill a big Worm and the capsules can be thrown from outside the big Worm's spitting range. Since
spawners
are not affected by poison damage, poison capsules are useless against them.
Poison capsules do not harm the player's structures, robots or vehicles, but do harm players themselves unless they are in a vehicle. Poison capsules are particularly effective when deployed from the
tank
, as the tank can park inside a cloud of poison to lure enemies to their death.

Space Age
expansion exclusive feature.
The
Foundry
is a version of the
assembling machine
from
Vulcanus
that specializes in metallurgy. It has a built-in 50%
productivity
bonus.
The foundry can only be crafted on Vulcanus due to its higher atmospheric pressure, but it can be used on other planets once transported via
space platform
.

Note that the foundry recipe for making
concrete
can benefit from
productivity modules
, despite the regular concrete recipe not being able to use them.
Additionally, the foundry can also make other foundries, all
belt
types, and
holmium plates
, all of which use the same recipes as assembling machines.
Efficiency
Most of the foundry's recipes are more efficient than creating the same items in a
furnace
or
assembling machine
. However, because of the built-in +50% productivity bonus (which applies even to items like belts that don't benefit from
productivity modules
), and because the same bonus also applies to the recipes for
molten iron
and
molten copper
, the actual efficiency gains from using a foundry are much higher than the value listed in the recipe.
The table below compares the values of the base recipes (with 1 ore = 10 molten metal), and then shows the actual output of the recipe with the default foundry bonuses of 4 crafting speed and 150% productivity (1 ore = 15 molten metal). For example, inserting 200
iron ore
into a foundry with no
modules
installed would result in 3,000
molten iron
which could be turned into 450
iron plates
.

Alternate recipe chains
Because the foundry can cast iron, steel, and copper plates but can also directly cast various items normally made
from
those plates, there exist alternate production chains, where the foundry is used to cast the plates and then another production building is used to create the final product:
Steel can be produced by casting iron plates and refining them in an
electric furnace
Gears, iron sticks, pipes, and pipes-to-ground can be crafted by casting iron plates and feeding them to an assembler
Copper wire can be produced by casting copper plates and feeding them to an assembler or an
electromagnetic plant
Low density structures can be produced by casting copper plates and steel plates (or, as mentioned above, casting iron plates and converting them to steel in a furnace) and feeding them to an assembler
These alternate production chains can potentially be more resource-efficient than just casting the result directly, albeit at the cost of considerably more machines (and in some cases more high-level, high-
quality
modules) for a given rate of output. In this case, the inherent +50% productivity bonus of the foundry does not matter, nor do any productivity modules the foundry has, because those bonuses also apply when casting the metal plates. Instead, the decision is between any productivity bonus the second production machine can provide verses the fact that most of the 'Casting' recipes cost less to begin with. (This inherent advantage is the value listed in the 'Efficiency' column under 'Base recipe values' in the above table.)
Steel plates
Initially, it seems like the electric furnace, with just 2 module slots, cannot make up for the 67% inherent efficiency boost from the cast-steel recipe. However, steel production also has an
infinite research
which adds a productivity bonus; while this bonus applies to both casting steel and smelting steel (and
doesn't
apply to casting iron plates in order to smelt them into steel), the 50% inherent productivity and more module slots of the foundry give it a higher bonus to start with, meaning that the same
absolute
bonus makes for a larger
relative increase
in the electric furnace. (For example, with no productivity modules, researching 5 levels of the technology will take the foundry from 150% productivity to 200% productivity, boosting its output by a third, while the furnace will go from 100% productivity to 150% productivity, boosting its output by a half.) With the right combination of high-quality
productivity module 3s
and steel plate productivity research, it is possible to make the electric furnace production chain more efficient.
For example, a foundry with 4 legendary productivity module 3s (+25% productivity each) casting iron plates feeding an electric furnace with 2 legendary productivity module 3s and a +50% steel plate productivity has exactly the same overall efficiency as a foundry with 4 legendary productivity module 3s and the same +50% steel plate productivity casting steel plates directly, with both producing exactly 1 steel plate per 10 units of molten iron. Any additional research past that point will make the electric furnace production chain strictly better. If using mere rare productivity module 3s (+16% productivity each) instead, the changeover happens somewhere between +150% and +160% research.
Additionally, with enough levels of steel plate productivity research, it is possible to reach the hard cap of 400% efficiency. Thus the absolute maximum efficiency possible for casting steel is 4/3 steel plates per 10 units of molten iron, while the electric furnace production chain can reach 2 steel plates per 10 units of molten iron.
Iron gear wheels
It is never possible for gears made in an assembler to be more efficient than those made by casting them directly. The cast gears recipe is
twice
as efficient as the normal one and no productivity research applies; the highest efficiency possible from an assembler, 200% from an assembler 3 with 4 legendary productivity module 3s, is only just enough to break even.
Iron sticks
Conversely, the cast iron stick recipe has no inherent resource efficiency at all, thus casting iron plates and then converting them to sticks using an assembler with
any productivity modules at all
is more efficient than using that same foundry to cast them directly.
Pipes & Pipes to ground
Unlike all the other items with alternate production chains here,
pipes
and
pipes to ground
are not intermediate products. Thus it is not possible to use productivity modules on foundries or assemblers which are producing them. Since it
is
possible to use productivity modules on a foundry casting iron plates which are then converted to pipes in an assembler, doing so is more efficient than casting them directly.
Copper cables
Much like iron gears, copper cables have a 200% efficient casting recipe and no researchable productivity bonus, thus it is not possible to produce them more efficiently using an assembler. However, copper cables can also be produced in the
electromagnetic plant
, which has
5
module slots and an inherent +50% productivity boost of its own. So long as the electromagnetic plant's total productivity is greater than 100%, this production chain is more efficient than casting directly. 5 productivity 3s of common quality (+10% productivity each) will give a total productivity of exactly 100%; any better quality modules, or productivity 2s of epic quality or better, will make them more efficient.
Low density structure
Low density structures are notable because the crafting recipe has an efficiency of
less
than 100% with respect to copper, and while its efficiency with respect to iron is greater than 100%, it is less than the inherent efficiency of casting steel plates. Thus, even with no efficiency modules or productivity research at all, casting the plates and then creating the low density structures in an assembler is more efficient. However, low density structures also require plastic, and since plastic bars cannot be cast, you are losing out on the inherent +50% productivity bonus the foundry offers:
| Process | Raw resources to make1 |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------- |
| Furnaces + Assemblers | 10205 |
| Foundry Direct | 3.511.13.33 |
| Foundries + Assemblers | 2.678.885 |
Note that making low density structures is subject to its own
productivity research
, and both that, and the use of productivity modules of any kind, will make the use of the alternate production chain more attractive: the efficiency gain for iron and copper will increase, while the efficiency loss in plastic, while not entirely negated, will shrink. For example, with no efficiency boosts, the alternative production chain is 33% more efficient in iron, 25% more efficient in copper, and 33% less efficient in plastic, but with +100% productivity from research, the alternative production chain is 60% more efficient in iron, 50% more efficient in copper, and only 20% less efficient in plastic.
Additionally, the hard cap of 300% productivity applies here, too, and this
can
entirely negate the penalty to plastic, though the level of research required to do do is considerable.
The low density structure casting recipe does have one advantage:
Quality
. Because the only solid input is plastic, all it takes to make low density structures of a particular quality is to have plastic of that quality.
Furthermore, since low density structures can be
recycled
back to copper and steel plates, one can use this recipe to generate high quality copper and steel plates from plastic, consuming less molten metal than many other means of producing quality plates. Additionally, if the foundry can get to the 300% low density structures productivity cap (via modules and research), then the plastic will (on average) be completely regenerated, allowing a small amount of quality plastic to produce arbitrary amounts of quality copper and steel plates, given sufficient molten metal.

Nutrients
are the fuel for
biochambers
and are also used as ingredients in recipes. There are several ways to generate nutrients from biological materials. While nutrients have a short spoil time, their fuel value is not affected by their freshness.
Any
quality
of nutrients can be used as fuel for a biochamber. However, if a biochamber is set to produce a higher quality version of a recipe that also takes nutrients as an ingredient, it can be tricky to keep an
inserter
from inserting high quality nutrients into the fuel slot for the biochamber instead of the ingredient slot. If the biochamber never runs out of base-quality nutrients in its fuel slot however, the higher quality nutrients will always be placed in an ingredient slot.

The
heating tower
burns
fuel
to generate heat. Initially unlocked on
Gleba
, it is useful for burning off unneeded biological products as well as providing electrical power. It later becomes a vital source of heat against the cold of
Aquilo
. The heating tower has 250% efficiency, so it generates 2.5 times the fuel value in heat of any fuel given to it.
The internal heat of heating towers is limited to 1000°C. Like a nuclear reactor, heating towers will continue to burn fuel even if they have reached their maximum heat. The fact that they burn fuel regardless of temperature makes them more useful than a
boiler
for destroying unneeded biological materials. Also like a reactor, you can read their heat and fuel status through the
circuit network
.
The heating tower has a heat capacity of 5 MJ/°C. Thus, they can buffer 2.5GJ of heat energy across their working range of 500°C to 1000°C, and they require 2.43 GJ of energy to warm up from 15°C to 500°C when initially placed. Because of the efficiency however, this means they only need 0.97 GJ of fuel to reach 500°C, which is slightly less than 10
rocket fuel
. More fuel will be needed to bring the connected
heat pipes
and
heat exchangers
up to temperature.
Note that heating towers produce less pollution per MW of power produced than boilers. Boilers produce 3.6 MW of power per pollution generated, while heating towers produce 24 MW per pollution. This coupled with their efficiency makes them a more efficient and clean alternative to boilers on
Nauvis
.

The
fusion power cell
is used by a
fusion reactor
to generate electricity. It is unlocked on
Aquilo
, and due to requiring
ammonia
(a fluid which cannot be
barreled
), can only be produced on Aquilo.
Unlike the
uranium fuel cell
, fusion power cells are consumed at a dynamic speed based on the grid's demand, meaning that the
circuit network
is not needed to prevent wasting cells. In addition, they last 400 seconds at max consumption, allowing continuous power generation for a long time. Fusion power cells are used exclusively in the fusion reactor and cannot be used as a
fuel
in burner devices or
vehicles
.

The
chemical plant
is a building for processing fluids and solids, usually through chemical processes. Many recipes that either require or provide a fluid other than
crude oil
are produced here. The chemical plant has 2 inputs and 2 outputs in fixed positions (their positions can be flipped). Solid items can be both inserted and removed by
inserters
from any point (no need to target fluid input/output connections).
When chemical plants are in the process of crafting an item, they will billow out smoke that matches the color of their input ingredients.

Base Game Recipes
The Chemical plant has twelve available recipes in the base game, one of which must be set before it can begin processing.

Space Age Recipes
Space Age
expansion exclusive feature.
The Space Age Expansion adds eleven new recipes, some of which must be crafted on a specific planet. Most recipes are not exclusive to the chemical plant and can be crafted with other buildings, mostly the
cryogenic plant
.

| Ammonia rocket fuel | Planet discovery: Aquilo | 10350500 | 1 | | |
| Lithium | Lithium processing | 2015050 | 5 | | |
Aquilo's recipes are able to be selected while on other planets, but because they require liquids that are exclusive to Aquilo and cannot be shipped off-planet, those recipes are effectively locked to the planet.
Fluid inputs
Unlike solid ingredients, which can be inserted anywhere, the fluid ingredients can only be added at the two fixed inputs. Furthermore, recipes which requires two fluid ingredients, will only accept each ingredient on a specific input. When the recipe that requires fluid ingredients is selected, the chemical plant will display icons on the inputs to show which ingredient goes to which input. These fluid inputs can be flipped with
H
or
V
.
Colored smoke billowing from the plants.

Carbon
is a resource added in
Space Age
. It is an intermediate product that takes a variety of roles across different surfaces, and when present, it is often critical to a core process in the new environment.
In
space
, carbon is created by
crushers
processing
carbonic asteroid chunks
, and is used in both recipes for
thruster fuel
.
On
Vulcanus
, it is mainly crafted from
coal
and
sulfuric acid
, but can also be found when destroying
ashland trees
. It is an ingredient in
tungsten carbide
.
On
Gleba
, it is made from
spoilage
in
biochambers
. It is an ingredient in
carbon fiber
.
Carbon is also useful in
coal synthesis
. As neither Gleba nor space platforms have natural access to coal, synthesizing it is the only way to produce
explosives
.
Alternative recipes
| Process | Input | Output | Made in | Required technology |
| ----------------------------------- | ----- | -------- | ------- | --------------------------------------- |
| Burnt spoilage | 12+6 | 1 | | Biochamber (research) |
| Carbonic asteroid crushing | 2+1 | 10+0.2 | | Space platform (research) |
| Advanced carbonic asteroid crushing | 5+1 | 5+2+0.05 | | Advanced asteroid processing (research) |
Note that even with the highest
quality
productivity module 3s
possible, converting carbon into coal and back gives a net decrease in carbon or coal (not to mention consuming sulfur and sulfuric acid).

Features
Crafting recipes categorized into groups.
GUI styles (changeable by mods).
Auto updater for new versions.
Train path finding takes two way signals into account.
Train Schedule merging when connecting trains.
Show what is connected to the electric pole when selected.
Train can find the path backward when it has locomotives in the back
Choose direction for some entities automatically (semaphore, train station, pump), when more than one direction is suitable. The R key rotates just between those.
Alt info for the cargo wagon contents.
Train stop building position is rounded to 2x2 grid to fix the rail grid.
Visualization of guarded rail area by rail signal when building/selecting it.
Blinking unplugged icon for generator/solar panel when it is not connected to any machine that can use the electricity, same icon for consumer when not connected to source.
Multiple Train Stops for the Train Station (Train stop has GUI to change the station it belongs to)
Updated recipe tooltip for assembling machine output and technology window.
Inserter can pick up to 5 items when moving from inventory to inventory (when researched), this is useful for faster loading/unloading of cargo in train stations.
Electric network statistics, accessible by opening the electric pole of the electric network, shows statistics and graphs for different intervals (5s - 50h).
God controller (mode without a player)
Added sandbox custom scenario (no goal, just building factories).
Enemy base generation settings can be set in the map generation GUI.
Load game GUI automatically selects latest save when opened.
Added fast and express splitters.
Crop Cache for atlas (requires less video memory to run, first load when crop cache is initialized can be slower)
Faster loading times (sounds are loaded when needed, faster images loading)
Graphics
New GUI look.
New locomotive graphics.
New graphics for mining drills (burner and electric)
Use shooting particles when player is shooting.
New splitter graphics.
New small lamp graphics.
Rendering light sources behind the border of the screen (To the maximum distance of 15 tiles).
Bugfixes
Fixed bug in internal rail segment structure creation on circular rails. This could have made the save games unusable
Fixed speed of logistic robots manager (slowdowns in games with lots of logistic chest + robots)
Fixed slow update with big counts of smart chests connected to the circuit network (now instant).
Fixed bug in logistic chest unregistration when the "ghost" entity to be built was held above it.
Reload fonts when the display is found, this should solve issues of black fonts after switching from different mode/game.
Don't allow to do quick transfer (ctrl+click) on entities that are not operable.
Rails are not minable when there is train on them.
Player selection controller works when player dies (and is respowned by the player port).
Correct saving of max updates per frame to the config
number instead of true/false.
Fix of alt info for chests cleared by the script.
Fix of loading saved games with mod items in crafting queue, that are not already present (mod with that item is not present, or the item was removed).
Fixed bug of not loadable games due to different mod settings causing to have assembling machines set to recipes with more ingredients than the number of slots of the assembling machine.
Fixed object creation in the Lua scripts (faster and no memory leaks).
Fixed clearing temporary script data (faster).
Fixed bug with flickering entity info.
Character not connected to player dying doesn't lose the game..
Fixed ordering of commands on entity die to allow clone mod.
Confirm exit from map editor when map is not saved.
Fixed bug of not loadable saves with entities on the edge of the region in some cases.
Fixed automatic resizing of script-based GUI when text is element or child items are removed.
Changes
Larger scale of terrain features.
Better movement on transport belts in turns and crossings.
Rails recipe changed (made from steel, needs also stone)
Locomotive + wagon + rails are more expensive.
More random looking enemy base generation.
Machines using electricity can have limited maximum input/output flow per second, so accumulators don't recharge/give energy instantly and laser turrets take energy, more continuously.
Ambient (music) isn't loaded all at start, but instead streaming real time while playing, this reduces game starting time and memory requirements.
Removed the limit to pickup 1 item per tick when player is picking items.
Player picks all items in range when picking items on ground (not just 1 per tick as it was until now)
Scripting
Changed the 'orientation' parameter to 'direction' to be consistent, the direction is used for the 4/8 base direction of the entity. Orientation is used for 360° orientation of something.
LuaEntity::clearitemsinside and getitemcount works on all entities (hopefully)
Added LuaGame::findentitiesfiltered, to find entities of certain type/name faster.
Added LuaGame::findnoncollidingposition(name, position, max perimeter, precision) to quickly find building space.
Saving and Loading game from the script (game.load(name) and game.save(name)). Used in tight-spot and transport-belt-madness.
Modding
Mods can modify the GUI style of the game.
Configurable car trunk size in the entity definition.
Measure time spent in scripts divided in individual mods and show in time statistics info (F5).
force.resettechnologies now loads new versions of technologies (like before), but it preserves the research and enabled state of technologies, so it is usable in migrations to reload existing technologies that changed.
Enabled to have recipe with no prerequisites (just energy). In the crafting GUI, it shows Infinite count craftable of that item (and all items dependent on recipes that are for free).
