Logistic Network Dashboard

Logistic Network Dashboard is a Factorio quality-of-life mod that adds compact, movable HUD panels for the information you usually need while building, expanding, and managing a factory.

It displays robot availability, electric production, and missing logistic items directly on the screen, without needing to constantly open the logistic network or electric network windows.

Features

Robot Dashboard

Displays your logistic and construction robot counts in a compact panel.

• Logistic robots: available / total
• Construction robots: available / total
• Updates automatically while you play
• Panel can be moved by mouse

Example:

logistic robot: 4.273 / 6.053

construction robot: 203 / 850

Power Production Dashboard

Displays your current electric production as a horizontal production bar.

• Shows current production
• Shows maximum production capacity
• Supports manual max capacity input when automatic detection is not enough
• Uses power formatting such as kW, MW, and GW
• Panel can be moved by mouse

Example:

86.5 MW / 144 MW

Because some Factorio API paths do not expose the exact maximum electric capacity, the mod includes a manual max capacity setting. This lets you enter the capacity yourself and use that value as the displayed maximum.

Supported manual formats:

• 144
• 144 MW
• 1.2 GW
• 500 kW

Entering 0 disables the manual override and returns to automatic detection or estimation.

Missing Logistics Dashboard

Displays missing logistic network items.

The panel shows each missing item with:

• item icon
• full negative amount
• clean tooltip text

Example:

iron-ore (-13.568)

Normal-quality items are displayed without unnecessary quality text. Non-normal quality items are shown clearly in the tooltip.

Example:

iron-ore [rare] (-25)

Movable Panels

Each dashboard panel can be moved by mouse.

Configuration

The mod includes an in-game settings window.

You can configure:

• which logistic network to read from
• which electric network to read from
• manual max power capacity
• visible dashboard sections
• update interval
• maximum number of missing logistics items shown
• locked or custom panel positioning

The settings button is available from the dashboard UI.

Commands

Toggle Dashboard

/lnd-toggle

Shows or hides the dashboard panels.

Design Goal

The goal of this mod is to keep important factory status information visible at all times without covering the main gameplay area.

It is designed for players who want fast access to:

• robot availability
• power production status
• missing logistic items

without repeatedly opening vanilla network windows.

I made this mod because my favourite mod lately is Robot World, and I found myself continuously having to check the electric power network current production and max capacity, the number of available robots and total robots, and most importantly, what exactly are the items in the logistic network that I'm missing, because in vainilla Factorio I couldn't properly see these items, they appear and disapear very fast and not display their true negative amount. TLDR, I made this mod, to be played along Robot World, as a QoL for that mod. But it's very usufull for any 100% robot bases.
