The Konami code
The Konami code (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start) might be the most famous code in game history. The code was first used in the release of Gradius (1986) and has been implemented in many other games ever since. Factorio is no longer an exception!
How it works
Keyboards generally don't contain a Start button, so we use Enter/Space instead. Activate the code by moving Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, then press B, A, Enter sequentially to get a health boost.
Limitations
This mod tracks the health bonus status per player in a variable. If for some reason the health bonus of the player gets changed (for example by another mod) then re-applying the code does not work. This internal status can be reset by using command /konami_reset.
And much more!
The Konami code might be the most famouse cheat code, but there are a lot more iconic cheats in game history.
