Pipe Visualizer 2.0 - Pin
Fork of PipeVisualizer-Updated
(ashier / AtelierAmber), itself an update of raiguard's
Pipe Visualizer. Visualizes the layout and
fluids in Factorio pipe networks.
This fork exists so the "pin the pipe system I'm hovering" action lives on a key that does
not collide with other mods' plain Y binding (helmod's recipe explorer, for example).
It replaces PipeVisualizer-Updated and is marked incompatible with it; do not run both.
Controls
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
Control + Y |
Pin / unpin the hovered pipe system. Hover a pipe and press to keep that fluid system drawn. Press again while hovering a pinned system to remove it. Any number of systems can be pinned. With nothing hovered, clears every pin. |
Shift + Y |
Toggle the overlay: draw every visible fluid system. |
Alt + Y |
Toggle mouse-over mode: systems are drawn while hovered and cleared when you move away. Control + Y while hovering turns a mouse-over system into a pinned one. |
Control + Shift + Y |
Toggle color-by-fluid / color-by-system. |
All keys can be rebound in Settings > Controls > Mods. Note that Control + Y is also the
vanilla "Redo" binding; rebind one of them if you use both.
Building
python build.py
Writes dist/PipeVisualizer-Pin_<version>.zip and copies it into the Factorio mods folder
given by MODS_DIR in build.py.
Mod developers
The remote interface is still named PipeVisualizer and allows blacklisting entities from
the overlay and registering extra pipe-like / complex entities. See scripts/restrictions.lua.
