Factorio 2.0 continuation of the classic FARL automated rail-layer. Builds rails, signals, poles, lamps, walls, concrete, landfill bridges, and blueprint-based rail layouts from a rail-laying train, with cargo-based placement, optional Space Age/Elevated Rails prototype recognition, and Forgeworks Core prototype/rail helper support.
Mods introducing new content into the game.
Version: 5.0.0
Date: 2026-05-31
Changes:
- Performed a RailForge-focused Forgeworks integration audit.
- Removed the incorrect Forgeworks resource/autoplace commands and remotes from RailForge.
- Updated the Forgeworks dependency to 0.2.7 for narrow rail helper support.
- Routed rail type classification through Forgeworks rail helpers where appropriate.
Bugfixes:
- Curved rail area preparation now stops rail placement when bridge/clearance preparation fails.
- Entity ghosts now include the Factorio 2.0 inner_name field when created by RailForge.
- Hardened train id lookup, protected entity/tile checks, cruise-control fuel modifier handling, and overlay creation against nil/invalid entities.
- Blueprint parsing now skips unsupported non-rail entities instead of indexing missing prototypes.
Cleanup:
- Removed legacy debug/quickstart/dev remote functions from the public remote surface.
- Removed commented-out obsolete prototype code in touched prototype files.
