EasyPvP
Description:

• Adds a UI that allows players to create forces (teams) in Factorio, and to switch between them whenever they want (by default does not allow players to switch to the biters' force, but you can change this by editing a boolean value in the code).
  
  WARNING: I suggest you make sure you trust everyone on the server before using this, because anyone can merge forces. I'm pretty sure it'd be kind of hard to undo that.

  If anyone has any suggestions for improvements or bugfixes, don't hesitate to post them in this thread.
  
  Thanks

Finally I can join the biters and destroy the person I'm playing with tanks AND biters!

Sounds like a bug in the base game, make a bug report for the bugs sub-forum and they will take a look at it

Hi,
I just tested couple games with my friends. What kind of rules have you found good? We played 20-30min with peace and winning condition: killing or disabling electricity(first for 30 min and then just destroing it(steam engine)). Was fun, rushing with turrets and machine gun seemst to be good, but requires good map and surely your opponent has more resources so it seems quite balanced. Mas has to be small enough with lot of resources, other wise it seems just dump. Making identical map seems to be only fair way to play as some spawns are just clearly lot worse. And surely no ai enemies good choice. Thanks for creating the mod!

I installed this, but dont see a GUI option anywhere to join factions. Does this only pop up after 2 or more players join the game? i've been the only player as of right now.

do you still work on this ?

its a good concept. please do
