> **⚠️ EXPECT BUGS ⚠️** Generate compact factory blueprints from Factory Planner. Fork of [COLOSSUS](https://github.com/alephsyzygy/COLOSSUS) by alephsyzygy (MIT), updated for Factorio 2.1. Plan production in Factory Planner, then use COLOSSUS Resurrection to lay out a compact blueprint. **Original:** https://github.com/alephsyzygy/COLOSSUS
Providing the player with new tools or adjusting the game interface, without fundamentally changing gameplay.
Version: 1.0.2
Date: 2026-08-10
Bugfixes:
- Fluid bus / logistic layouts failing on Factorio 2.x machines (e.g. chemical plant) whose pipe connections sit on corner tiles with an explicit direction field.
- Compact mode packing full bus-width slices (not compact) and misaligned input/output combinators.
- Compact I/O combinators placed away from belt/pipe stubs; they now sit in a column on the left with the inputs.
- Compact rows misaligned when belt-stub depth differed; pack on template origin and skip bus envelope padding.
Changes:
- Default Create a clocked bus to off.
- Compact packs omit shared bus lanes and left-align the lane legend; default layout gutter is 2.
Version: 1.0.1
Date: 2026-08-09
Bugfixes:
- Clear Blueprint Info message (no stack traceback) when a Factory Planner factory has only unsupported impostor lines (mining, boilers, etc.).
- Avoid nil crash in post-processing on empty layouts.
Version: 1.0.0
Date: 2026-08-09
Features:
- Factorio 2.1 port of COLOSSUS as colossus-resurrection.
- Hard dependency on Factory Planner; generate from the current FP factory via fp-interface.
- Working bus (linear) blueprint generation from a solved FP factory.
- Compact layout technique: 2D bin-pack recipe blocks with configurable max_layout_width (default 48) — experimental.
- Yellow transport belts by default for generated routes.
- Packaging and Mod Portal release tooling (GitHub Actions).
Changes:
- Replaced gvv-based Factory Planner / Helmod poking with official remote APIs (FP first).
- Entity defaults updated for Factorio 2.x (chests, inserters, GUI sprites).
- Author set to Tony; original COLOSSUS by alephsyzygy credited in NOTICE and description.
Known issues:
- Prefer the bus technique; compact may still fail on some factories.
- Factory Planner impostor recipes (boilers, mining, power) are skipped with a warning.
- Factories that are *only* mining/extraction (e.g. iron ore) error clearly: miners are not layoutable yet.
