COLOSSUS Resurrection

Generate factory blueprints from Factory Planner.

COLOSSUS Resurrection lays out a factory blueprint from a solved Factory Planner factory. It does not solve production rates — plan in Factory Planner, then build the layout here.

EXPECT BUGS — this is an early Factorio 2.1 revival. Prefer the bus (linear) technique for now; compact packing is experimental.

About this revival

This is an unofficial MIT fork of COLOSSUS by alephsyzygy, updated for Factorio 2.1.

• Original source: https://github.com/alephsyzygy/COLOSSUS
• This fork: https://github.com/ashlessscythe/COLOSSUS-Resurrection

Factory Planner is a hard dependency. Rates and machine counts come from FP via the official fp-interface remote (no gvv).

Highlights

• Build from the current Factory Planner factory
• Bus (linear) layout technique (recommended / working)
• Compact 2D packing technique (experimental)
• Configurable max layout width and gutters (mod settings)
• Yellow belts by default
• Multiplayer compatible

Quick Start

1. Install Factory Planner (≥ 2.1.3) and this mod.
2. Create and solve a factory in Factory Planner.
3. Open COLOSSUS Resurrection (Ctrl+I or the shortcut).
4. Select technique bus, then create a blueprint.
5. Place the blueprint in the world.

Tips

• Remove or ignore FP impostor lines you do not need (boilers / mining / power). Those are skipped with a warning for now.
• Start with a small factory (a few crafting lines) while testing.

Techniques

Compatibility

• Factorio 2.1
• Requires Factory Planner ≥ 2.1.3
