2. Click the "Blueprint" button to show the panel.
3. Copy a blueprint string from your friend.
4. Paste the blueprint string in the text box.
5. Click "Load String".
Here is a sample blueprint string, for the classic design of 2 assembling machines fed by logistics bots.

1. Click the "Blueprint" button to show the panel.
2. Click "Save All"
3. Find the blueprint in your "script-output/blueprint-string" folder (located in the same parent directory as "mods/blueprint-string").
Features
This mod has strict error checking, so bad strings will not crash your game or mess it up. Please report any strings that do!
This mod is tested in single player. I don't have a lot of experience playing multiplayer or modding it, so I appreciate any suggestions on how I can make the mod work better for multiplayer.

It would benefit everybody if you could agree on the same data format with the author of the
Foreman mod.

We both use the same format for uncompressed strings.

a blueprintmanager by default in the game would be really nice

Does this work in multiplayer at all right now? Then we'll give it a shot I guess. Sounds like a very useful tool indeed!

Used the code from

I made myself a nice shell script to compress. (Please make it so your mod stops respawning the readme file, PLEASE)
Code: Select all
compress.sh :
#!/bin/sh
find ~/Library/Application\ Support/factorio/script-output/blueprint-string/. -type f -name '*.txt' -exec sh -c 'gzip < $1 | base64 > ${1%.txt}.b64z' -- {} \;
I "invented" the .b64z extension for the compressed files. On mac, a simple cat in enough to view fie contents, no matter the extension.

Updated for Factorio 0.11.14.
I added support for line breaks in blueprint strings. This allows people to break up long lines of text to get around phpbb's 10,000 character line limit.
I am planning to add line breaks by default, but I will wait a bit to give everyone a chance to upgrade. I also need to figure out the best line length. 80 characters? 200 characters? User-defined?

Excellent work!
This is the most stable tool for sharing blueprint!
What's more, it is really simple and clear to use!

But good strings can bring down your whole computer.
Just posting here to let you know I filed this bug:
import "large" blueprints -> computer locks up
In short, something is up with the memory usage. If I import a blueprint with 1,024 items, I see ~38KB of memory used per item (which seems kind of high to me -- 38 bytes would seem more than enough, but whatever - "modern" software is what it is). When I import a blueprint with 2,048 items the per item use goes through the roof (running my machine out of memory when it gets to somewhere around 1MB per item). The massively higher per item memory usage makes it seem that something is broken somewhere, but I have no idea whether the issue is in the blueprint string mod or in Factorio itself.

Thanks, I added a workaround in version 0.0.7.
Using indexes increases blueprint size by up to 50%, but at least it doesn't freeze.
Re: [0.11.14] Blueprint String
Posted: Sun Mar 08, 2015 8:15 pm
by DaveMcW
In version 0.0.8, I removed all the indexes and entitynumbers. This cuts blueprint size in half.
Newly generated blueprints require the new import function, so they are not compatible with previous versions.
