About Mini Nav Mode
From Factorio Mod PortalAdds a hotkey to open the map zoomed to the player. Use with Remote Configuration to manage your base remotely. This is no longer necessary in Factorio 2.0.
Adds a keyboard shortcut (by default, "N") which will toggle map zoom-to-player mode at the player's current location.
This mod is inspired by navigation satellite mode in [Space Exploration][1], but uses a much simpler implementation. If you are familiar with that mod, you should be aware of some limitations:
- Mini nav mode uses the map zoom-to-world mode, not editor mode. As such, it does not have its own inventory, cannot see through the fog of war, and cannot create entity ghosts without an item, a blueprint, or using the pipette tool.
- Mini nav mode is not compatible with Space Exploration. Use that mod's navigation mode instead.
- Mini nav mode cannot remotely view other surfaces, like the interiors of Factorissimo factories.
