Faster Crafting
Choose how quickly players and machines craft. Start with 2× hand crafting, or tune machine speeds and individual recipe times to suit your factory.
Settings
Open Settings → Mod settings → Startup. Changes require a restart.
| Setting | Default | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Hand-crafting speed multiplier | 2 | Changes base crafting speed for all players. |
| Assembling-machine speed multiplier | 1 | Changes assembling machines, chemical plants and refineries. |
| Furnace / recycler speed multiplier | 1 | Changes furnace and recycler speeds. |
| All-recipes speed multiplier | 1 | Divides recipe crafting times by this value. |
| Individual recipe speeds (advanced) | Empty | Overrides the global recipe multiplier for named recipes. |
Numeric multipliers accept 0.1–100, including decimals. 1 keeps the original speed, 2 doubles it, and 0.5 halves it.
Individual recipe overrides
Enter internal recipe names and multipliers, separated by semicolons or commas:
iron-gear-wheel=5; electronic-circuit=2; iron-plate=1
Each entry replaces the all-recipes multiplier for that recipe. With a global recipe multiplier of 3, this example makes gears 5× faster, circuits 2× faster, and leaves iron-plate recipe time unchanged. Other recipes use 3×.
Recipe and machine multipliers combine: 2× machine speed and 3× recipe speed can give 6× throughput before other bonuses and input/output limits.
Compatibility and limits
- Factorio 2.1; Space Age is supported but not required.
- Applies to existing saves, characters and machines after restarting.
- Ingredients, products and recipe unlocks are unchanged.
- Research, modules, quality and runtime bonuses apply on top.
- Recipe controls include smelting, recycling and modded recipes available when this mod's final fixes run.
- Rocket silos keep their machine speed; their recipe times can still be changed.
- Invalid overrides are ignored and recorded in the game log; the last valid duplicate wins.
- Multiplayer requires matching mod versions and startup settings.
Set all multipliers to 1 and clear recipe overrides to keep original speeds. Mods that overwrite speeds or recipe times later can affect the result.
