Reskins belts with a dark rubbery theme!
Give your belts a sleek dark look with this mod. I took the time to make it compatible with factorio 2.0 and space age!
Originally built by Deadlock989 for Industrial Revolution 3 (rip), the mod was marked as deprecated and forgotten... But thanks to stubborn appreciation, it's back now!
Mod settings let you customize how your belts look! Current options include:
- Arrows: tier-based arrows; no arrows
- Side rails: vanilla steel for all; alternate metal bases (IR3 metals + tungsten); colored rails (perfect for arrowless belts)
- Glowing arrows and Glowing belt rails (only for colored belt rails). Can be toggled on/off separately as you prefer
More customization options (thick line, thin line...) to come later. We're open to ideas for more customizability options!
The changes are cosmetic only - belt recipes and other properties are not changed.
Please let me know if any bug shows up!
Warning: This mod uses layers for belt animations and only high resolution spritesheets are provided. It is not recommended if you have a PC that struggles to render the vanilla game.
Compatibility
Compatibility with modded belt types is still WIP, but may be added as requested.
- Bob's Logistics: Bob's basic, turbo and ultimate belts added. Basic belts use an iron alt base.
WIP features and ideas
These are features that have yet to be coded and/or added. Please feel free to suggest more in the discussion page!
- Thick lines and thin lines from arrowless belts
- Modded belt compats in the works: Lignumis (99% done, needs a simple fix); Advanced Belts; AAI Loaders (icon sprite issue, the belt entity is fine)
- Planned compats: Krastorio 2 Spaced Out, Planet Castra
- Find a way to force the space age turbo belt's unique animation logic onto other modded belts (for very fast belts), so that the spaced out arrows animation works.
