This simple, minimalistic quick start mod enhances your Factorio experience by allowing you to choose from one of nine startup kits: Empty, Default, Default-militant, Tiny, Small, Medium, Big, Huge, or CUSTOM. You can select your preferred kit in the mod configuration settings. Additionally, you have the option to place items from the kit on one of your four quickbars or conduct some or all research in advance. The mod is multiplayer ready and supports quality items if that option is selected.
