Factorio Forums

Bassicly what i'm looking is this,

a mod that would add a small ui button that can be pressed and when do so you would be transferd to a new surface with lab tiles.
on this surface only ghost's can be placed.

with an exit button to exit the surface back to the main game surface.

The idea is to be able to edit big blueprints there. instead of tidious removing things in the blueprint window one by one.

anybody up for the challenge? Don't think its that hard for an experienced modder

Wrong board, There's a request for mods board.

Also The mod already exists, search the portal.

Kind of weird to have people ask for things while saying it is easy (you don't know) and saying it is a challenge. Sounds pretty rude to belittle the hours and hours of work required and mock people into doing stuff for you...

searched the portal, couldnt find it. only one thats over 3 years old since last update and still marked as in development.

I did not mean to be disrespectfull. sorry if you felt this way.
but looking at mods with differnt surfaces are out there i though one surface would be more easy then the complex ones that are out there that totaly change the game. its not like i asked for 100 of different items in the game. i only asked for an extra surface.

and this board is marked a "ideas and requests for mods" so i'm a bit confussed on the wrong board part.

also never said it was easy, just asked if someone was up for the challenge as i myself dont know lua.
but by your response i think i will look into lua a bit more instead of returning to this forum

ok fair enough i was fairly certain i clicked this board.
but nvm, already looking into the surface documentation. as you interpretated that last line completly wrong, thanks for reminding me that ppl are no longer able to handle any kind of tease/joking around.

i'm done here this thread can be deleted for my part. I'll figure it out myself.

You should try punching those two words into the mod portal's search field...

Or even the words "edit blueprints".
