Shared Notepad: a multiplayer-first persistent text editor for your save. Press N, type, Save. Every player on the server sees the same notes. Track what's done, what's broken, and what the next person to log in should know.

Features

• One shared, persistent document: written into your save file, synced to every player by Factorio's engine.
• Always-on overlay: saved notes hover unobtrusively in the bottom-right corner so you can read the todo list while building, mining, or fighting biters.
• Document-level locking: only one player can edit at a time. Others see a read-only view with "<player> is currently editing".
• Chat broadcast on save: <player> updated the notepad so others know to re-check. Unchanged saves stay silent (no chat spam).
• Auto-released lock on disconnect: if the editor disconnects mid-edit, the lock frees automatically so the next person isn't blocked.
• Press E or N again to close: standard Factorio GUI conventions. The hotkey is rebindable under Settings → Controls → Mods.

Single-player

Works the same. Open with N, type, save. The "shared" part is future-proofing for when your friends finally join.

What it intentionally isn't

• No formatting, separate pages, or edit history. Plain text by design.
• No per-player drafts. One canonical document everyone sees.
