About Station Auto Colour

From Factorio Mod Portal

Automatically colours train stations from the first Factorio icon in their name.

Automatically colours train stops from the first Factorio rich-text icon in their name.

How it works

Add an item or fluid icon to a train stop name, for example [item=electronic-circuit] Circuit pickup. The stop receives a colour sampled directly from that icon.

  • Includes explicit RGB values for 292 items and 22 fluids from Factorio 2.1 with Space Age.
  • Updates stops when built, cloned, renamed, revived, or when settings are pasted.
  • Recolours existing stops when the mod is installed or upgraded.
  • Leaves stops without a recognised icon unchanged.

Source code and releases are available on GitHub.
