About Peaceful Mode Toggle

From Factorio Mod Portal

Adds hotkey (Ctrl+Shift+P) to toggle peaceful mode on current surface in an existing game.

Peaceful Mode Toggle

Simple mod to quickly toggle peaceful mode anytime during the game.

Allows you to enable/disable peaceful mode on the current surface (planet) using a hotkey — no menus, no buttons, no extra UI clutter.

Features

  • Hotkey: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Toggles peaceful mode only on the surface the player is currently standing on
  • When enabling peaceful mode, automatically kills all existing enemy units (biters, spitters, worms, etc.) so they immediately stop attacking (they respawn in peaceful behavior)
  • Works in multiplayer (each player toggles only their current surface)
  • Fully compatible with Space Age (different planets, space platforms, asteroids)
  • Extremely lightweight — no GUI elements, no performance impact, no conflicts with other mods

How to use

  1. Install the mod
  2. In-game press Ctrl + Shift + P
  3. A message appears in chat confirming the change
  4. When enabling peaceful mode — you will see all nearby aggressive enemies die instantly (normal behavior — they will respawn peaceful)

When this mod is useful

  • Want to temporarily disable biters on a specific planet
  • Building a base on a new world without constant interruptions
  • Testing large builds without enemy interference
  • Playing in a relaxed style but still able to turn enemies back on for challenge

Extra command (optional)

  • /toggle-peaceful — same effect as the hotkey (can be typed in chat)

Known notes

  • When enabling peaceful mode, all existing enemies on the surface are killed — this is the only reliable way to stop ongoing attacks
  • New nests will still spawn, but behave peacefully (no first-strike aggression)
  • Does not affect other surfaces at the same time — toggle per-planet as needed

Hotkey-only design — zero visual pollution in your HUD.

Enjoy your peaceful building sessions!
