Don't know how to use a machine? Looking for efficient setups? Stuck in a mission?

Multiple tanks

Post by Gafa »

Hi
I noticed in the startup screen the row of tanks riding over a biter nest (cluster).
Can one manage multiple tanks at the same time?

No, at least not in vanilla.

Autodrive is one of the mods that allow players to control multiple vehicles simulataneously. However, it's not possible to let vehicles drive in formation as each vehicle will request its own path (depending on starting position and vehicle size -- which may drastically differ with vehicles provided by other mods). But vehicles controlled by Autodrive may auto-refuel (themselves as well as fuelable equipment items in their grid) from the trunk, auto-reload weapons from the trunk, auto-repair themselves with repair kits from the trunk, attack enemies within range of their weapons (or try to escape if the vehicle has no loaded weapons), depending on the different 'sensors' (there are some more) installed in the vehicle grid.
A good mod deserves a good changelog. Here's a tutorial (WIP) about Factorio's way too strict changelog syntax!
