Tell please what will be included in this modpack? Will you use polular big mods like dytech, treefarm, f-mod, bob mods, youki industries and another?

Yes, of course.

We want to do a big mod like those so we have big plans to the mod but we don´t like to say that we will do something before have it. We have a list of things and a route to do it.

We played Dytech, F-mod, treefarm, hardcorio...and is because of that we have brand new and awesome ideas to our mod.

I think there is a misunderstanding. This is not a mod pack. This is a mod with modules. They are creating this mod from scratch, not compiling other people's mods.

I'm actually pretty excited about this. It is a very ambitious project, but it is very well planned.

You've absolutely right, It´s not a single mod, it´s a bundle of modules in a mod, so people can play with one, two or all of them.

Thank you very much for the support !! we are working in the mod

So this is complilation of separate modules like dytech or bob mods? They use modular system too
So you may take gameplay ideas from another mod i understand right? I'm asking because mod with electric railroad was created by JamesOFarell but now his mod status is dead and the mod now in the work in progress forum thread https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... =32&t=3926, that's really nice mod
I'm very like bob mods and dytech with using many kinds of ores, gases, fluids and metal alloys with respective processing, so will you take ideas from these mods, or it will have some dependences from big mods?
The interaction of different mods will look harmoniously together, your opinion?

Yes, it is the same system by DyTech and Bob's Mods

Yes, Wagons mod was abandon and JamesOFarell said someone could use his code.

Ideas are very similar in this type of mods.
How to implement those ideas is that make it unique, each has its own way of doing things

The interaction of different mods will look harmoniously together, your opinion?

We are trying to make the mod as compatible as possible, but to see interactions between them we will have to wait.

think u gus could work on a new train signal system to include on it like pre-signals (reads and redirects trains to a green signal) something like
. . . . . . . . / =8========
0-0-0-D=s=< ===8==0-0-0-D
. . . . . . . . \ =8==0-0-0-D

so the pre-signal will send train to rail 1 since rail 2 and 3 are ocupied (signal 2 and 3 are red)

Desc:
S pre-signal
8 signal
= rail
0-0-0-D train
< junction
. . (space filler)

[odin_spain]

Trains now chose the best path (free+short), so, why do you need to do a manual signal to chose the way?

I used to play to Railload Tycoon, so I can understand your request, but I think is not really useful here.

[aklesey1]

How much deeper will be developed your mod, in comparison with bob mods or cartmen complete overhaul? I wish you guys luck with this mod, i swear it can potentially grow to interesting and useful mod, with many realistic elements
As i know many mods on this forum was developed by modder alone, it nice to see the group of creative people

[odin_spain]

Now we are focus on the basic in each module, but be mind this basic things will be awesome too. I cant tell you now but you will see.

On one hand we love balanced and realist mods so we will avoid overpower things or overkill weapons against bugs. On the other and we hate unnecessary and stupidly complicated process that give you a vanilla stuff with 5 steeps more. For example we hate to colect wood by hand, Factorio is a game about automatizate things, it´s not about doing things repeatedly (we have assembly machines to do it).

Can you put your mods in zips?

[McGuten]

Can you put your mods in zips?

when all of mods has a version stable we regroup all on all in one zip

[LordFedora]

No, he's asking for each module to be in a zip

Rars can act for some people, and I'm not positive if factorio supports then natively

[McGuten]

Wooops, im sorry.
Yes, after eat i will upload all modules in zip and rar

[Degraine]

Last I checked Factorio only supports zip files.

Kinda wish it supported 7z though...

you mean you tionality is only compatible with zip?

[Degraine]

I mean that Factorio's mod support only allows for mods stored in uncompressed folders, or as zip files, in the mods subfolder. The .rar format isn't supported.
