Features

Adds micro-miniature (1x1) versions of other machines. Inspired by the comment section of my Mini Machines mod (the 2x2 entities featured in the mod images).

Currently includes assemblers, furnaces, miners, beacons, and radars with vanilla, and the biochamber, cryogenic plant, electromagnetic plant, foundry, and big mining drill from space age, and electrolysers, chemical furnaces, metal mixing furnaces, and multi-purpose furnaces with bobs mods.

Settings

Config options available to disable each type of micro machine and disable the micro-miniaturization tech tree.

If the micro-miniaturization tech tree is enabled, micro machines are unlocked by a respective technology which requires the previous tier of micro machine, as well as the equivalent tier of the regular sized machine (ex: Micro Assembler 2 requires Micro Assembler 1 and Automation 2). Techs are 2x the cost of the base technology. If an entity is unlocked by inspiration (fluid handling, oil processing, exclusive planetary unlocks), then the mini variation will be unlocked at the same time. If disabled, micro machines are unlocked by the same tech as their original sized machines.

Furthermore, if both the micro machines tech tree and the mini machines tech tree are enabled, then the micro machines tech will be locked behind the mini machines tech (which would itself be locked behind the original technology). Technology costs may result in an uneven number of science packs.

Currently deprecated: Balancing changes have been moved to a separate settings mod, to allow for more fine-tuning, while reducing the amount of clutter within the main mod settings.

Other mods compatibility:

  • AAI Industry: Miniaturization technology requires new electricity tech. New intermediates are properly used in mini machine recipes.
  • Gotlag's Electric Furnaces: Creates micro machine versions of the newly added furnaces. Can be used alongside bobs mods.
  • Extended Vanilla Mining Drills: Creates micro machine versions of the newly added mining drills. Cannot be used alongside bobs mods.
  • One More Tier: Creates micro machine versions for each additional tier of machine, including assembling machine, furnace, mining drill, refinery, chemical plant, storage tank. Untested with other mods.
  • All of Bobs mods, including Assembly, Logistics, Mining, Technology, and Warfare: Creates micro machine versions of the newly added machines. New intermediates from the Plates mod are properly integrated in the micro machine recipes.
  • All of the 5dims mods, including Automation (assembling machine, refinery, chemical plant), Resources (furnace), Mining (mining drills), Battlefield (radar), Storage (storage tank), Module (modules), Nuclear (centrifuge)
  • Disco Science: All newly added labs implement disco science capabilities.

Untested/Not Updated to 2.0

  • Factorio Extended Plus: Creates micro machine versions of the newly added higher tiered machines.
  • Fantario: All changes to base machines (requiring heat/fuel) are copied by micro machines, requiring the same power source. Micro-miniaturization technology requires basic science pack tech. New intermediates are properly used in micro machine recipes.

Known Micro-Issues:

Micro assemblers with fluid outputs sometimes look a bit odd when connecting pipes to them (the pipe connections look massive in comparison)
Fantario micro assemblers don't appear to visibly connect to heat pipes on the south or right sides, but they should still be receive heat as normal.
