About Auto Infinite Research
From Factorio Mod PortalAutomatically queue up next levels of infinite mining productivity research so that your megabase can be fully automated.
Want to leave your megabase running overnight but don't want to wake up at 3am to queue up more infinite research? This mod is for you.
This mod does one thing and one thing well (hopefully): it keeps queuing up the next levels of the infinite mining productivity tech so that your megabase could keep churning away without manual intervention — unless your ore patches run out, that is; which is unlikely on high mining productivity level and high richness.
The mod can be enabled/disabled through the shortcut bar "Toggle Auto Infinite Research" button, or through the console commands /air (toggle on) and /air.off (toggle off). It is enabled by default.
When enabled, the mod initiates its check and queuing immediately after it's toggled on, or whenever a tech is started or finished. Note that nothing is done unless the following conditions are met:
- The last finite mining productivity tech is unlocked;
- At least one rocket has been launched; and
- The research queue isn't full.
You can still manually edit your research queue at any time, including adding or removing non-mining-productivity techs.
