Train Foundry


A large train foundry building that assembles complete trains from blueprint templates: import a train blueprint, queue it, feed the parts with inserters, and watch the finished train fuel up and drive off onto your rail network on its own.

g Space Exploration compatibility

Is this mod safe to use with existing Space Explorations save? Wouldn't it cause any instability issues? Is it compatible with LTN - Logistic Train Network mod?

Thanks in advance for the response :>

Adding Train Foundry to an existing Factorio 2.1 Space Exploration save should be fine, though I haven’t tested this combination yet. My main uncertainty is placing a foundry in orbit: it’s a large building that creates its own rails, and I haven’t checked how that behaves on Space Exploration’s platforms. I’d recommend backing up your save before trying that.

I’m not aware of a direct conflict with LTN. Train Foundry builds trains; LTN manages deliveries. With the blueprint version, you could try building a train whose schedule sends it to an LTN depot, but I haven’t tested that workflow with LTN yet

Okay, thank you. I will come back to share my experiences with SE and LTN with this mod combined.
