Clientside vs Serverside

[that_1_nerd]

So let's say I wanted to create a "client" mod. I don't need it to be synced across the server and I need different configs for different players. I know that changing things locally and not globally can cause desyncs. Is there a way to prevent desyncs and still allow this? Or am I just up the creak without a paddle?

Factorio does not support the concept of client and server side mods. You cannot have a mod running only on one client or with different values than the other clients.

You can have per player data stored somewhere like in the global table, but this data will be the same/sync’d across all clients.

Thanks For the info... I asked cause I was thinking if it was possible to create like customizable configs for mods interacting with each other through a config file... this is mainly for like creating modpacks and creating more advanced ways of inter-compatibility...
Thanks!
