Mod pack import
Posted: Sat Feb 29, 2020 5:03 pm
Problem:
Carefully selected mod combinations can be difficult to describe and share. They can be crafted as a zip file, but this doesn't include the latest version of the mods and may need additional setup, like setting Factorio to use an alternate mod folder or using a specific combination of mod settings.
Solution:
Mod Pack import. The user pastes a block of text into Factorio and Factorio downloads and enables the relevant mods (and a specific version, if specified), and applies any mod settings (if specified) and relaunches.
Result:
Players can now easily craft experiences as a combination of mod packs and share carefully crafted experiences consisting of multiple mods with other players.
