About Compact Machines

From ficsit.app

A mod that adds x10/x100 and x4/x16/x40 versions of all base game Producers and Generators, based on Minimal Factory

Inspired by [Minimal Factory], We have recreated the mod for U6+ with no dependencies. Save your FPS and a headache by turning that assembly line of one hundred smelters, to ONE with the output of one hundred.

Features:

  • x10, x100 versions of vanilla machines.
  • x4, x16, x40 versions of vanilla machines.
  • Multiplayer compatible
  • Compressed liquids for Generator outputs to accommodate pipe throughput limits.

It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to use Th3Fanbus's Recipe mod [Th3RecipeMod] in conjunction with CM. This will make your production chains slightly more complicated, but it is currently the best way to get around throughput limits. Just be careful when looking for Compressed Liquids from CM as opposed to from Th3's mod for use in generators.

How It Works:

As new machines are unlocked in game, 2 new schematics become available to unlock.

  • One unlocks the x10 and x100 versions of the vanilla machines.
  • One unlocks the x4, x16, and x40 versions of the vanilla machines.

They can be unlocked independently from each other. If you find your build menu a bit cluttered by the unlocks we recommend [Build Menu Organizer] which has options to configure your menus to your liking.

Known problems:

  • Currently, all recipes have an additional number in parenthesis listed next to them, which is an additional multiplication of whatever the machine's multiplication already is. This is a 1.0+ issue and currently we do not know how to fix it, but it's purely visual and we would advise you to simply ignore the number in parenthesis.
  • Coal and Nuclear generators do not display any Compressed Water in their UI, even though there is compressed water inside. Does not effect their production.
  • Chance of small math error in startup and cooldown times of machines; Does not appear to affect gameplay. [Low Priority]

Potential Updates:

  • Liquid Compressor - Compress liquids to accommodate more than 6m3 of compressed liquid per production cycle of machines.
  • Edit some recipes for Refinery and Blender to accommodate higher throughput of compressed liquid versions of recipes.
    [Most recipes will work fine with the x4, x10 versions of recipes.]
