Images from Factorio

Post by datarza »

Is it possible to use the images from Factorio's assets for crating another images? I am asking about images in `..\steamapps\common\Factorio\data\base\graphics\entity` folder, for example using these factorio's images for creating an image from blueprint string.

For the legal parts, see https://factorio.com/terms-of-service.

For rendering a blueprint string into images, there are existing projects such as https://github.com/demodude4u/Factorio-FBSR, known as BlueprintBot on reddit and discord.
I'm an admin over at https://wiki.factorio.com. Feel free to contact me if there's anything wrong (or right) with it.

They can’t, since it entirely depends on what exactly you are planning to do. Is it for private use only? Do you want to publish the images? In what context?

Maybe the most relevant paragraphs from the terms of service:
You are not allowed to copy, transfer or distribute the game, its hacked or otherwise altered versions, any of its parts or any of the paid content.
Distribution of the original art assets such as models, fonts or textures is not permitted, unless it is necessary to create your own mods in accordance with the previous paragraphs.
Any commercial use of the Factorio source code, art assets or other affiliated assets is subject to express consent of Wube Software Ltd. For this purpose you can contact us on factorio@factorio.com. This does not affect your Video Policy set out below.
Mods: Shortcuts for 1.1, ick's Sea Block, ick's vanilla tweaks
Tools: Atom language pack

Actually, it does not matter, I have changed my point of view, now I surprised why this feature was not implemented in the game, so I want to suggest to do it for devteam
