Something that I want it in factorio

A bar that controls whole row of resources at once.

It's very annoying to click everything every time when I start a new world.

I mixed again “row” with “column” (some have left/right weakness, I have row/column weakness :lol:), so I posted first a question to Stringpop, if he didn’t mix row with column, until I recognized the sliders at the top. :D So I could merge it and changed the post. But meanwhile disentius’ posted, so it gets a little bit confusing. 8-) :roll:

I was going to suggest something like this, but searched first :-D
For vanilla games, it is not a lot of sliders, but some heavy mods makes this a decent size task.

Sorry to bump on this, but with the new QoL ideas featured in the previous FFF, I think this could be a good addition as well.

Copy/Paste Startup resource slider settings like we do with entities in game

Post by Galdoc »

TL;DR: Copy/Paste startup Resource slider settings the same way we copy/paste settings across machines in the game (ex: shift-right-click to copy the recipe from an assembler, and then using shift-left-click to paste it to other assemblers).
Why? Some modpacks have so, so, so many resources, and it makes it a lot easier to tune things when trying out a new modpack.

Seems like I would rather just learn the map string format and write code that decodes the string, then modify it and then re-encode it if there's that many sliders 8-) :lol:
