Hi,
atm you only get them from destroyin bases.

Since factiorio is about automatism, it owuld be cool if also normal (or better) enemys which attack you would spawn them, maybe just really low. And to make it collectable automatic.

If you are not against the mods there are some that do that alread - Natural Evolution or bob's mods for example.

This isn't a purely automatic system though, but you can use your deconstruction planner to collect alien artifacts for you. I always take a roboport when I go biter bashing for this very reason, you end up with a ton of wood in your inventory, which I use to make boxes to dump all over the map..

Natural Evolution includes artifact collector that will pick them up automatically.

I mean it should be added to vanilla.
