I just like to share few ideas that i would love to see in the future versions of Factorio !


:arrow: The Mighty Ocean:
In today Factorio is ocean only blue blur on our screes wit fish in it.
But i would like to change it.
:arrow: My Ideas..
1. Bigger ocean biomes
2. Be able to swim (possible research how to swim or basic swimming equipment would be awesome)
3. Boats - be able to build mighty ships with you could travel faster across the sea.
4. Ocean resources like deep sea oil mining
5. Be aware ocean is dangerous place! Id love to see ocean species of biters so that the ocean would be more threat for players!!ยจ

:arrow: Alt view for Pipeworks and underground belts !
Imagine a build(view) mode where pipes(or belts) so that if you pressed like alt+w( key combination doesn't matter)
could be build under ground independently from rest of the structures and could be seen in pipe works build mod only. connection with surface would be granted with some sort of pipe connectors.

Leave your suggestion in the comments x)
Sorry for my bad english. Z

Catch fish with the long arm inserter. Do something with it (furnace?).
Insert new small fish, when growing can be catched again.

I would definitely love to have bodies of water play a bigger role in the game than merely an unassailable void. Even if it was something as simple as being able to plop down metal tiles on top of the water (A bit like the Roadworks mod) so you can make bridges across and build your factory on the water.

That actually sounds pretty cool and now I want a sea factory :D
