Factorio Forums

What I'd like to do is to print a factorio tech tree to an A3 sized paper. For this I would need a picture with full tech tree with all the base game technologies. Is this already available somewhere? Is it possible to automate making such a thing? I thought I would ask before I use some hours to hand craft it

DaveMcW made a nice tech tree visualization you can start with: http://davemcw.com/factorio/tech-tree/

I was not able to find an image with the entire 0.15 technology tree. It is possible to automate making the thing; the raw data can be found in the game's folder under data\base\prototypes\technology\technology.lua

I also found some comments for 0.14 basically saying it's not possible to layout the graph in a way where no lines cross.

Thank you!

The wiki has this image of the entire tech tree.

That's from 0.14 and the one from this thread lol:

I have contacted Oxyd and asked him remake it for 0.15, but sadly he hasn't responded. I talked to Rseding yesterday to find out how the picture was created and got the following answer:

How many major technological changes (other than adding infinite research) were made in 0.15? Could we theoretically Photoshop a few changed pictures on there, throw on or take off a few lines, and then add the science pack pictures?

If yes, unfortunately I won't have the ability to do that for about 2 weeks.

Made minor modification for better printable layout based DaveMcW's visualization of the tech tree.
mspaint powarrrr. I like the idea of science bottle color based background things.

Once I get the hang of Gimp, I might add a non-black background as well

Yeah, how is having a black background more printer friendly?
