About No Solid Fuel Vehicles
From Factorio Mod PortalReplaces solid vehicle fuels with liquid fuel barrels for cars, tanks, hovercrafts, ironclads, and Cargo Ships vessels. Allowed fuels are configurable per vehicle family. Light oil (diesel), petroleum gas, heavy oil, or rocket fuel are acceptable
Do cars running on coal feel wrong? This mod replaces solid vehicle fuels with liquid fuel barrels.
- Removes solid fuels for supported vehicles by default (but you can explicitly allow wood, coal, or other fuels if you want)
- Makes some barreled fuel burnable such as: petroleum-gas-barrel, light-oil-barrel, heavy-oil-barrel
- Supports cars and tanks, AAI Vehicles: Ironclad, Hovercrafts, and ships from the Cargo Ships ecosystem
- Small boats and larger ships can use different liquid fuel sets
- Startup settings let you define allowed fuel items for each supported vehicle family
- The crash site contains one barrel of light oil so your first car can be fueled immediately
Barrel production makes a bit more sense with this mod.
Recommended mods:
- No Vehicle Pickup or Vehicles retain fuel when picked up
- Liquid Rocket Fuel - adds rocket fuel barrels for vehicles
- Barrel Fluid Icons
- Barreling Group
- Barrel recipes 2.0
Compatibility
- Diesel Engine
- Bob's Plates
- Pelagos + Canal Excavator
- Maraxsis - adds a fuel setting for the diesel submarine
- Muluna - adds a fuel setting for the rocket buggy
- Diesel Trains
- Diesel Machines
