i live in chile south america so i put lima and read the X and Y coordinates, compare that with a world map latitude and longitude and calculate the coordinates for santiago of chile but when i input thus coordinates i end up in the middle of the ocean so im here to ask how the hell can i claculate the coordinates for santiago of chile? or anyone can do it for me and tell me how you did it?

any help is apreciate

Yes, currently the coordinate system is a bit arbitrary. But someone here figure out a way to calculate it: https://mods.factorio.com/mod/factorio-world/discussion/5f61f36f062b76f306ef475a

Hope that helps!

i use a rule of 3 with this tbh im reading the post too but i read it previously and did not get it too much

["South America, Lima Peru"] = ingame: { x = 1160, y = 1035 }, irl: [-12.045, -77.042]

["South America, Santiago Chile"] = ingame: { x = ?, y = ? }, irl: [-33.451, -70.668]

love the mod btw is fucking awesome

Rule of 3 should work too indeed. Some day I'll probably implement this calculation myself in the settings, but that would be a breaking change, so will at least be in a major version number. And not sure when I'll have the time.
