Hello!

i think, a 3th angle / 3D perspective with MiddleMouse-Click View-Move (hold middle mouse button to move the perspective) and so on would be a great advantage. The graphic style and the rectangled map orientation should persist. Just in 3D. Like minecraft.

I DONT think of Satisfactory, because there are still larger differencies. Its a shooter. And not released. And no mods. And no inserters. And no random map.

- 3D Model could be "comic-style border drawed" when selected (a white border around the model)
- Multiple levels (height + z) for transport belts
- Better usage of aircraft vehicles without the need to disable inserters
- 3D Models, better graphics, move the 3D View
- Many more details
- Mountains / terrain height / hills / better cliffs
- correct shadows
- Sun
- Many other advantages and possibilities with a 3D perspective.
- no need for sprite frames, just move the model, feels more realistic and is independend from the camera view

and so on...

Sooner or later, even factorio needs some major modernizations.

Thank you.

At the moment, there is no clue a Factorio 2 is in the pipe. Discussing about a hypothetical Factorio 2 is sterile.
[Koub] Locking the topic. If the devs announce a Factorio 2 AND if they choose to consult the community about ir AND they choose the same forum, then there will be Factorio 2 discussion here.
