Factorio Simplified is designed to let new or young players try the beauty of Factorio without overwhelming them too much.

Recipes are easier, high level items are cheaper, technologies require fewer flasks, a lot of intermediate items are removed.

Mod Settings allows you to modify how many intermediate items you want to keep, how cheap recipes should become, as well as the maximum number of allowed ingredients for a given recipe. Hopefully this gives you enough control over the game's difficult and complexity that anyone can play, without actually removing any of the game's core systems or denying access to any content.

This mod's modifications are fully scripted and will be compatible with some other mods. If you have a mod that's giving issues combined with this, let me know, perhaps I can make them work together.

This mod does not work when combined with complete conversions like Krastorio or Industrial Revolution and activating both will likely hang your game as it tries to make sense of the now far too complicated recipe tree.

Known issues:
- some pointless barreling recipes stay behind
