About Auto Lamp

From Factorio Mod Portal

Adds a tool that will place lamp ghosts in an area where there is electricity and space for lamps.

Adds a tool that will place lamp ghosts in an area where there is electricity and space for lamps. It checks to make sure the lamps aren't too close to each other or existing lamps.

Defaults to SHIFT + L and doesn't block other mods from using it.

  • Left click and drag to select power poles to build lights around (does account for ghost poles).
  • Right click and drag to remove all lights that aren't powered (doesn't account for ghost poles).

I made this after I found only 1 other mod doing this and I didn't like how it worked under the hood so I made my own.

Modded lamps are untested. There's a chance it could work, but you should probably save first.
