About Slash Blueprint's Lab Uptime Monitor
From Factorio Mod PortalDisplays color-coded uptime indicators over labs to detect daisy-chain research stutter.
🟢 Daisy-Chain Lab Uptime Monitor
Ever wondered how much research speed you're actually losing to lab-to-lab daisy-chaining?
This lightweight, zero-lag mod adds a clean, color-coded LED status indicator to the top-right corner of your labs:
- 🟢 Green (≥80% Uptime): Running smooth and steadily supplied.
- 🟡 Yellow (40%–79% Uptime): Experiencing minor starvation or inserter hand-off delay.
- 🔴 Red (<40% Uptime): Heavily choked by daisy-chaining or missing science packs.
