Factorio Access Mod
Features
- This mod makes the game accessible to the blind and visually impaired, by converting visual features into audio features. As of the latest release of version 0.16.55, there is full support for the base game version 2.0, including advanced features such as combinators.
- The mod also has some original audio features to improve the experience.
- More information can be found in the GitHub repository.
Demo Video
The mod's version 0.12.3 for Factorio 1.1 was showcased in a dev stream, which is now available as a YouTube video.
Limitations
- In order to interface with screen readers and access the main menu features, the mod's own Factorio Access Launcher needs to be used.
- Multiplayer technically works but it is very laggy for structural reasons that we cannot get around.
- If you are a sighted player installing the mod in order to play multiplayer sessions with mod players, we recommend that you back up your "config.ini" file before setup because the mod changes a lot of it. We also recommend for you to use Vanilla Mode.
- Space Age features and elevated rails are not yet supported.
- This mod is not guaranteed to be compatible with other mods. Generally, mods that add content within existing mechanics are compatible while mods that add new mechanics may require adapters to be implemented. We are interested in feedback about which specific mods are fully compatible.
