Info / Long Description:
  • Release Date: April 1, 2016
  • Name: AFM
  • Latest Release: v7.7.7
  • Release Date: April 1, 2016
  • Factorio Version: 0.12.29
  • License: License to kill
  • Release Date: April 1, 2016
  • Author: Supercheese
  • Language: ???
  • Again: Release Date: April 1, 2016
Are you bored with vanilla Factorio? Need something to spice up your game? Then perhaps today is your day! Try this mod and I guarantee your Factorio experience will be changed!

It'll probably also work with Bob's mods. And maybe other mods. Perhaps. If you're lucky.

I have a list of changes here, but it seems that both it and the ReadMe file in the mod package have been through a bit of a time warp and ended up in an alien tongue. Maybe some of you can decipher it...?

Damn time zones, it's not April 1st yet for me, so I guess I can't download this mod.
I have no idea what I'm doing.

Yeah it's not April 1 yet here either, but it is in, like, Japan and Australia, so I figured I should post it. :D

As you can see, Google Translate is very, very bad with Latin. ;)

Mmm, kinda close. I'd say about 70% of what I intended.
It'll help to play around a bit with the mod to see the changes for yourself, and to browse the Latin Wikipedia for some of the terminology. ;)

Version 7.7.7 - 2016, April 1
Table/list of changes
- Electric turrets now train throwing at ennemies
- Keys S, A, D and W are now reversed for moving
- The player now always walks backwards as in a moonwalk
- Assembling machines are changed to biters
- Latin language is the best language
- Items in the player's inventory randomly transform into fishes

- All machines are round-shaped as ducks
- Locomotives play 8 bit music from Thomas, players exhibit on locomotives' tanks

[Edit] : I reckon the only latin I have heard or read comes from Asterix the Gaul and from Harry potter :lol:

Much better! The only things that are still off are: I intended "automata" to be "robots" so they'd be Logistics Robots and Construction Robots; speaking of construction robots, they have a "petasus durus" i.e. Hard Hat. Finally, the "tank" adjective (cisterninae) applies to Thomas the Tank Engine.

Ceterum, accipe hoc crustulum! :)

Why oh why didn't I see this sooner.

I love the latin change notes. I still can read latin pretty well so that alone made my day.
