About Coal Powered

From Factorio Mod Portal

Mod removes electricity transfers (no production, no consuption, no storage).

Everyone did have elektricity issues. So this mode gives the solution.

This mod contains: Coal powered research, mining, smelting, assembling, centrifuging and rocket launching.

There is no limitation for wood, coal, solid fuel, rocket fuel and nuclear fuel but be carefull, every destroying of building destroys the rest of energy.

Personal Laser defense was replaced by gattling machine gun (be careful traveling without ammo in your inventory). This gun do NOT need any electricity (displayed value shows only information about loaded ammo).

  • external mode Gun Equipment - see https://mods.factorio.com/mod/GunEquipment

So enjoy and let comments, I'll be glad for bug or issue report. Note: Runs only with new game (propably can run from save, but be prepared to fix all electicity powered things).
