I have had to restart my factories a few times, and while starting up can be fun, there are times I'd like to just have all the research done and build a factory... Sort of like "Creative Mode" on Minecraft.

Is there a way to quickly research all technologies, or do them through the console? The waiting period is the killer, I can just give myself the potions if there's a way to disable the wait period, or "give" the research.

Any help would be swell.

I think the easiest way would be to install the test mode mod: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... f=14&t=895

or just play the sandbox scenario and ask for all the technologies (and possibly a starting chestin) in the initial dialog.

Worked like a champ

One more question while I'm at it -- is there a list of entities anywhere? To use with the "give" command?

Something like:
express-transport-belt

and so on? I think some deviate from the textual name, but can't think of them right now.

I know logistic chest change, they are logistic-chest-provider, logistic-chest storgage etc.

But I find using the testmode muuuch eaaier (Mods arent bad )

if you still prefer to not use it, then you can look the nanes in the locale files

Makes sense -- for the most part, I try to avoid mods... a co-worker and I made a dense-coal mod a while ago, and I had a treefarm mod... something with those games happened that made my saves unplayable, so that was depressing.

I may end up giving that a shot at some point.

Good call at looking at the folders, didn't think of that.

There is no "list of entities" at the moment. Though it is a nice idea.

Edit: ok there is as kovarex has shown below

There actually is way to get the name of all entities using this:

Example of printing all entities to console, the problem is, that the list is too long: Here is an example of command that prints all the names of tree types:
