Hello Factorio Community.
I'm fairly new and I wanted to start creating mods for the game.
the programming part isn't that hard as I actually work as software engineer but I have big problems with the graphics.
For my first mod I wanted to add a new vehicle. A truck. Slower than the car, no weapon but big inventory.

It should be looking a little bit like this: (They don't allow me to post a full URL in my first post )bridgestonetyres.com.au/Content/cms/LightTruck/Tyres_LightTruck.jpg
Of course with a bit more color in the dark theme of the vanilla game.

It would be great if someone could make and provide the needed graphics.
Have a good day.

First truck with 32 px bright. Shift x = 0.5, y=0.25 or negative, try both.
Frame: 160x112 px. One square on the third picture is around 16x16 px or the half of tile. Second Truck: High Resolution or 64 pixels bright. Shift x = 1, y=0.5 or negative, I'll really don't know.
Frame: 320x224 px. One square on the third picture is around 32x32 px or one tile. Some method for setting middle point:

looks pretty good.
A PNG with the entire sprite and transparent background would be cool.

In archive. Now I'm rendering 64 pixels sprite sheet, but only 32 directions, then it will be not too big.

I will probably use this as an example of what the software I'm currently developing is capable of.
