Factorio Forums

Hi,

I have a long running game of Factorio using Bob's mods. I'm enjoying it a lot and love my factory but it's getting a bit easy and I was wondering if I can reseed the ores on my map to make them a bit more sparse? I seem to remember reading somewhere this was possible but can no longer find that information and am starting to think I dreamt it... I could start a new map but I don't really want to as I've invested a lot of time into this game.

Is this possible?

/c game.regenerate_entity("cobalt-ore") should work

Thanks for that LordFedora. I presume I'd just go through each ore and run that command. Is there any way to run this as a script instead of all from the command prompt?

I presume this would use my existing ore settings for regenerating the ore? Is there any way I can edit my game to change that? I'd like to make the ore less sparse.
