Atraps003: Add command large-blueprint-size

{{Languages}}
The '''console''' is Factorio's in-game command-line interface. See [[command line parameters]] for the command line interface of the Factorio executable.

The in-game console can be used for:

* Chatting with other players
* Occasional status updates
* Running commands / scripts / cheats

There are three types of commands:

* '''[[#Normal commands|Normal]]''' - Display information about the game and customize your experience.
* '''[[#Multiplayer commands|Multiplayer]]''' - Message filtering, banning users, etc.
* '''[[#Scripting and cheat commands|Scripting/Cheating]]''' - Run small Lua scripts (but they <span style="color:#FF0000">disable achievements for the save game</span>)

__TOC__

=== Using the console ===
The console display can be toggled with the {{Keybinding|grave}} key (<code>`</code>). This is the key located to the left of the <code>1</code> key, above <code>Tab</code>.

You can customize the keys via '''Settings menu → Controls → Toggle chat (and Lua console)'''.
When the console is open, you'll see a blinking cursor at the bottom of the screen; type your message or command and hit '''Return''' to send it (this will also close the console).
Documentation about message and command prefixes can be found further down this page.

The console supports [[rich text]] tags. These tags are useful for sharing blueprints, marking map locations in chat or adding icons to map markers and train stations. Ctrl + Alt-clicking the map or ground will automatically insert a GPS tag and post it into the console. Shift-clicking most things with the console open will insert a tag for that thing into the console.

When the console is closed, only the most recent messages/commands will be displayed, but they will gradually fade away (opening the console will immediately re-display all recent messages).
Note that by default, all executed commands are made visible to all users. The fade-out time can be changed via '''Settings menu → Interface → Chat message delay'''.

The console can be cleared with the '''/clear''' command.

Use the {{keybinding|↑}} and {{keybinding|↓}} keys to scroll through the console history. The {{keybinding|Tab}} key provides intelligent code completion on commands, options and player names.

|}

This is a very powerful feature, which also allows cheating, and as such <span style="color:#FF0000">achievements will be permanently disabled for the save</span> as soon as you use a script command.

== Basic example scripts ==

=== Use it as calculator ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(1234*5678)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Zoom beyond normal bounds ===
Note that zooming too far out can cause performance hits. Be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.zoom=0.1
</syntaxhighlight>
In freeplay, the farthest you can zoom out is 0.3. In the map editor, it is 0.1. Smaller zoom values will be clamped.

=== Mine faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_mining_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Craft faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_crafting_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unlock and research all technologies ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.research_all_technologies()
</syntaxhighlight>

Undo this with the command in the next section.

Note: Specific technologies can be researched using the [[map editor]] by shift clicking the "start research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Unresearch all technologies ===
This does not reset manually applied bonuses
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
tech.researched=false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

Note: Specific technologies can be unresearched using the [[map editor]] by clicking the "un-research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Reset your force ===
This resets all data for your force, including kill and production statistics, technologies, bonuses and charting status.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Always show rail block visualization ===
Permanently show the rail block visualization instead of only when holding a rail signal. Disable by replacing true with false.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.game_view_settings.show_rail_block_visualisation = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Set all trains to Automatic mode ===
Set all trains to automatic mode - for example after building them with a blueprint.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for key,ent in pairs (game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{name="locomotive"}) do
ent.train.manual_mode = false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

== Inventory manipulation scripts ==

=== Cheat mode ===
Allows for infinite free crafting. Disable by replacing true with false.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.cheat_mode=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Refill resources (refill oil, iron etc.) ===
While holding the cursor over a resource tile in-game:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.amount=7500
</syntaxhighlight>

Alternatively you can refill all resources in the map with the following command. Change ore.amount to the desired value.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c surface = game.player.surface
for _, ore in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({type="resource"})) do
ore.amount = 10000
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add items to the player's inventory ===
Replace iron-plate with the [[data.raw|internal name]] of the item desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="iron-plate", count=100}
</syntaxhighlight>

For instance, here's a stack of the god-mode energy system interface:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="electric-energy-interface"}
</syntaxhighlight>

There are several god-mode items available:

* <code>infinity-chest</code>
* <code>infinity-pipe</code>
* <code>electric-energy-interface</code>
* <code>heat-interface</code>

Add a powerful armor with equipment and some tools for construction:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local player = game.player
player.insert{name="power-armor-mk2", count = 1}
local p_armor = player.get_inventory(5)[1].grid
p_armor.put({name = "fission-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fission-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fission-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "personal-roboport-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "night-vision-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
player.insert{name="construction-robot", count = 25}
</syntaxhighlight>

Adding [[Quality|higher quality]] items looks like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="iron-plate", quality="legendary", count=100}
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Increase player inventory slots ===
Gives 100 additional bonus inventory slots to your entire force. Used by the [[Toolbelt (research)]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.character_inventory_slots_bonus=100
</syntaxhighlight>

== World manipulation scripts ==

=== Reveal the map around the player ===

Reveals the map around the player, similar to a [[radar]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{game.player.position.x-radius, game.player.position.y-radius}, {game.player.position.x+radius, game.player.position.y+radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
or from start position
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{x = -radius, y = -radius}, {x = radius, y = radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
Change 150 to the desired radius, higher values take longer.

=== Hide revealed map ===

Hides all revealed chunks, inverted map revealing.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
force.unchart_chunk({x = chunk.x, y = chunk.y}, surface)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Reveal all generated map ===

Revels all of the generated map to the player's team.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.chart_all()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete chunks ===
If much of the map is revealed, it increases the size of the save file. The following command cancels the generation of all chunks that are currently queued for generation and removes chunks outside a 32 chunks radius around 0,0. Note that this will remove player entities if there are any on these chunks.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface;
game.player.force.cancel_charting(surface);
local chunk_radius = 32;
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if (chunk.x < -chunk_radius or chunk.x > chunk_radius or chunk.y < -chunk_radius or chunk.y > chunk_radius) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete unrevealed chunks ===
This command deletes chunks that are not revealed by the player. Can be used after the command for [[#Hide revealed map|hiding revealed map]] to delete the chunks not covered by radar.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if not force.is_chunk_charted(surface, chunk) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off night ===
Enables eternal day.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.always_day=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change game speed ===
0.5 is half speed, 1 is default, 2 is double speed, etc. Minimum is 0.01. This can be used for a lot of things like when you know you will have to wait for long periods of time for something to complete. Increasing will decrease performance, be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.speed=X
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Freeze time ===
Stops the advancement of the time. Unfreezes it if you by replace "true" with "false".
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.freeze_daytime=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.clear_pollution()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Completely turn off pollution ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
surface.clear_pollution()
end
game.map_settings.pollution.enabled = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add a lot of pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.pollute(game.player.position, 1000000)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Where speakers are, who placed them ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local speakers = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{force = game.player.force, type="programmable-speaker"}
for key, speaker in pairs(speakers) do
game.player.print(speaker.last_user.name .. " placed a speaker at " .. speaker.gps_tag)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable friendly fire for your force ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.friendly_fire = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new resource patch ===
This creates a new 11×11 patch of resources, centered on the player character, where the ground is not water.
The patch it creates is perfectly square but it randomizes the amount similar to natural generation, with fewer ore at the edges and more ore in the center.
The default numbers result in a patch with 2500-3000 ore.

If you want a larger patch, change "local size = 5" to a larger number.
A larger patch will have exponentially more ore.
Entering a number above 30 is not recommended.

If you want a richer patch, change "local density = 10" to a larger number.
Entering a very large number shouldn't hurt anything but you probably don't need to go above 100.

To choose which resource is spawned, change "stone" near the bottom to "iron-ore", "copper-ore", "coal", or "uranium-ore".

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local ore=nil
local size=5
local density=10
for y=-size, size do
for x=-size, size do
a=(size+1-math.abs(x))*10
b=(size+1-math.abs(y))*10
if a<b then
ore=math.random(a*density-a*(density-8), a*density+a*(density-8))
end
if b<a then
ore=math.random(b*density-b*(density-8), b*density+b*(density-8))
end
if surface.get_tile(game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y).collides_with("ground_tile") then
surface.create_entity({name="stone", amount=ore, position={game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y}})
end
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

For more flexibility, the [[map editor]] can also be used to create/alter/remove resource patches.

=== Remove resources around the player ===
Removes all resource patches from the ground in a 50 x 50 area around the player.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local size=50
local pos=game.player.position

for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{area={{pos.x-size, pos.y-size},{pos.x+size, pos.y+size}}, type="resource"})
do e.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new oil patch ===
This creates 9 crude oil patches in a 3×3 square.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for y=0,2 do
for x=0,2 do
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position={game.player.position.x+x*7-7, game.player.position.y+y*7-7}})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

or randomly without any collision:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local position=nil
for i=1,9 do
position=game.player.surface.find_non_colliding_position("crude-oil", game.player.position, 0, i/2+1.5)
if position then
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position=position})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new water patch ===

This creates a small pond in a 4x2 square.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c
local waterTiles = {}
for y=2,4 do
for x=-2,2 do
table.insert(waterTiles, {name="water", position={game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y}})
end
game.player.surface.set_tiles(waterTiles)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Regenerate resources ===
For solid resources like iron, destroys all resource entities and creates resource entities as in the original map generation. For fluid resources like oil, sets the yield of all existing resource entities to the original amount. Regenerates resources on the entire surface.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="resource"}) do
if e.prototype.infinite_resource then
e.amount = e.initial_amount
else
e.destroy()
end
end
local non_infinites = {}
for resource, prototype in pairs(prototypes.get_entity_filtered{{filter="type", type="resource"}}) do
if not prototype.infinite_resource then
table.insert(non_infinites, resource)
end
end
surface.regenerate_entity(non_infinites)
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="mining-drill"}) do
e.update_connections()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Count entities ===
Counts all entities whose name includes the string in local entity.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local entity="belt"
local surface=game.player.surface
local count=0
for key, ent in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force=game.player.force})) do
if string.find(ent.name,entity) then
count=count+1
end
end
game.player.print(count)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off cliff generation ===
Sets size to "none". Only effective on chunks that are generated after using this command. Use [[#Remove all cliffs]] to delete existing cliffs.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local mgs = game.player.surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.cliff_settings.cliff_elevation_0 = 1024
game.player.surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all cliffs ===
Removes all cliffs existing cliffs from the world. Use [[#Turn off cliff generation]] to turn off cliff generation in new chunks.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, v in pairs(game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="cliff"}) do
v.destroy()
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete all decoratives ===
Delete the decoratives that can be found in the world.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.destroy_decoratives({})</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change map generation settings ===
This allows to change the map generation settings for new chunks; it does not alter already generated chunks. [[#Delete chunks|Deleted chunks]] are affected by the setting change because they are newly generated when they get explored again.

To change resource generation settings, replace "iron-ore" with the [[Data.raw#resource|resource]] that should be changed and replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/concepts/MapGenSize.html MapGenSize] in the following command. Replace "iron-ore" with "enemy-base" to change the enemy base generation settings.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local resource = "iron-ore"
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].size = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].frequency = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].richness = "very-high"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

To change water generation settings, replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/concepts/MapGenSize.html MapGenSize] in the following command.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.water = "very-high" --[[ size]]
mgs.terrain_segmentation = "very-high" --[[ frequency]]
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs </syntaxhighlight>

=== Making a structure indestructible ===
This makes it impossible for an entity to be damaged or killed, e.g. by biters. Hover over the entity and then run:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.destructible = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Connect linked belts ===
If there exist at least two [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/prototypes/LinkedBeltPrototype.html linked belts], and one of them has the "Entity tag" <code>in</code>, and another linked belt has the "Entity tag" <code>out</code>, then the following command should link these two linked belts.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local i = game.get_entity_by_tag('in')
local o = game.get_entity_by_tag('out')
i.linked_belt_type = 'input'
o.linked_belt_type = 'output'
i.connect_linked_belts(o)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Deactivate cars and tanks ===
The [[car]] and [[tank]] can be used like larger, 2x3 chests, but doing this at a large scale can have a negative performance impact. Deactivating them reduces their performance impact, though it also prevents them from being driven or moved by belts.

Deactivate selected car or tank (hover with mouse then enter command):
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.active = false
</syntaxhighlight>

Deactivate all cars and tanks on surface:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, v in pairs(game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="car"}) do
v.active = false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

== Enemy/evolution scripts ==

=== Set evolution factor ===
Ranges from 0 (new game) to 1.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].set_evolution_factor(X, game.player.surface)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable time-based evolution & increases pollution-based evolution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.time_factor=0
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor=game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor*2
</syntaxhighlight>

The "2" at the end of the last command will double the default pollution factor. You can substitute another number to increase (or decrease) the pollution factor further.

=== Kill all biters on the "enemy" force ===
Note that this will kill only mobile units, spawners will not be killed.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].kill_all_units()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all enemies ===
This will kill all biters, bases and worms. Anything that is an enemy will be completely destroyed. This only affects enemies in the generated world, so any unexplored parts of the map which still need to be generated will still have enemies. You can [[#Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks|prevent biters being on newly generated chunks]] if desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy"})) do
entity.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all nearby enemies ===

This will kill all biters, bases and worms in a configurable radius. The default, 250 tiles, is about two zoomed-out screen widths on full HD. After destruction, it shows how many objects were destroyed.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local pp = game.player.position
local cnt = 0
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy", radius=250, position=pp })) do
cnt = cnt+1
entity.destroy()
end
game.player.print(cnt)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable peaceful mode ===
Enabling peaceful mode prevents biter attacks until provoked. Substitute true for false to disable. Already existing biters are not affected by this command so attacks could continue for a while after activating peaceful mode.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.peaceful_mode = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable biter expansion ===
Biter expansion allows biters to create new nests, it is enabled by default. Substitute true for false to disable.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_expansion.enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks ===
On newly generated chunks no biters will be present, however all current biters will remain unaffected. Equivalent of setting the Enemy Base Size to None under the Terrain settings during map generation but achieved mid game by [[#Change map generation settings|changing map generation settings]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls["enemy-base"].size = "none"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs
</syntaxhighlight>

Instead of the command, it is also possible to use a GUI in the [[map editor]] to changing map generation settings mid game. Access the map editor with <code>/editor</code>, go to the "Surfaces" tab and click "Edit map gen settings".

== Player character scripts ==
Commands concerning the player directly.
=== Get player position ===
Prints coordinates of your current position.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.position)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Teleport player ===
Moves the player to the specified location. You should be able to teleport to a specific player if you obtain their coordinates via them executing the previous command and giving them to you.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.teleport({X, Y})
</syntaxhighlight>

To teleport to the world's origin, use 0,0.

To teleport to a different planet / surface, use:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.teleport({X, Y}, 'surface_name')
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable god mode ===
God mode removes your player character allowing you to fly over obstacles and take no damage.

Disassociate your controls from the character and destroy it:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character.destroy()
</syntaxhighlight>

To undo, spawn a player character. This will spawn a new character at the spawn point of the world, and connect your controls to it.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.create_character()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable long reach ===
Enables long reach, which allows the player to build and interact with entities at a greater distance. The default reach is 10.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local reach = 10000
game.player.force.character_build_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_reach_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_resource_reach_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_item_drop_distance_bonus = reach
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Find player corpses ===
Pings player corpses on the map.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local found_corpses = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="character-corpse"}
for _,corpse in pairs(found_corpses) do
local player = game.get_player(corpse.character_corpse_player_index)
local name = player and player.name or "????"
game.player.print(name .. " --> " .. corpse.gps_tag)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Run faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character_running_speed_modifier=3
</syntaxhighlight>

== Research scripts ==
=== Enable faster research ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.laboratory_speed_modifier=1
</syntaxhighlight>
-0.5 is half speed, 0 is normal speed, 1 is double speed, 2 is triple etc.

=== Research specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=true
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=true
</syntaxhighlight>

To research a high level of an infinite technology, set its level:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['worker-robots-speed-7'].level = 100
/c game.player.force.technologies['mining-productivity-3'].level = 100
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unresearch specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=false
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enabling specific recipes ===
The internal recipe/item names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.recipes["electric-energy-interface"].enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes["rocket-silo"].enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes.loader.enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes["fast-loader"].enabled = true
/c game.player.force.recipes["express-loader"].enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable all recipes ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for name, recipe in pairs(game.player.force.recipes) do recipe.enabled = true end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Resetting technology effects to default ===
This will reset the enabled/unlocked state of all recipes to what they would be purely based on the currently researched technologies, as well as resetting other technology effects like mining speed, etc. Any manual modifications to these effects and recipe unlocks will be undone.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset_technology_effects()
</syntaxhighlight>
Note: Can be used as a quick workaround when recipes are unavailable after adding or changing mods even though the technology unlocking them has already been researched.

=== Enable ghosts for destroyed entities ===
This is normally unlocked through researching [[construction robotics (research)]], but this command unlocks it independent of the research.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.create_ghost_on_entity_death = true
</syntaxhighlight>

== Modding tools ==
A list of the internal names of most things in the vanilla game can also be found on [[data.raw]].

=== Access a mod's data ===
If the first word of the command is __mod-name__ it will run in the context of the mod with the same name. For instance, this command prints the data from the Even Distribution mod:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c __even-distribution__ game.player.print(serpent.dump(storage))
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Print to console the tile under the player ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.surface.get_tile(game.player.position).name)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write all researched technologies to file ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local list = {}
for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
if tech.researched then
list[#list+1] = tech.name
end
end
game.write_file("techs.lua", serpent.block(list) .. "\n", true)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write all enabled recipes to file ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local list = {}
for _, recipe in pairs(game.player.force.recipes) do
if recipe.enabled then
list[#list+1] = recipe.name
end
end
game.write_file("recipes.lua", serpent.block(list) .. "\n", true)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write mod list to file ===
Write all currently active mods and their version to the file script-output/mods.txt in the [[user data directory]].

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c helpers.write_file("mods.txt", serpent.block(script.active_mods))
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Exporting production statistics ===
Export production statistics out of the game into external JSON files.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">/c local timescales = {
[defines.flow_precision_index.five_seconds] = "5s",
[defines.flow_precision_index.one_minute] = "1min",

Console

2025-03-20T20:24:05Z

Atraps003:

{{Languages}}
The '''console''' is Factorio's in-game command-line interface. See [[command line parameters]] for the command line interface of the Factorio executable.

The in-game console can be used for:

* Chatting with other players
* Occasional status updates
* Running commands / scripts / cheats

There are three types of commands:

* '''[[#Normal commands|Normal]]''' - Display information about the game and customize your experience.
* '''[[#Multiplayer commands|Multiplayer]]''' - Message filtering, banning users, etc.
* '''[[#Scripting and cheat commands|Scripting/Cheating]]''' - Run small Lua scripts (but they <span style="color:#FF0000">disable achievements for the save game</span>)

__TOC__

=== Using the console ===
The console display can be toggled with the {{Keybinding|grave}} key (<code>`</code>). This is the key located to the left of the <code>1</code> key, above <code>Tab</code>.

You can customize the keys via '''Settings menu → Controls → Toggle chat (and Lua console)'''.
When the console is open, you'll see a blinking cursor at the bottom of the screen; type your message or command and hit '''Return''' to send it (this will also close the console).
Documentation about message and command prefixes can be found further down this page.

The console supports [[rich text]] tags. These tags are useful for sharing blueprints, marking map locations in chat or adding icons to map markers and train stations. Ctrl + Alt-clicking the map or ground will automatically insert a GPS tag and post it into the console. Shift-clicking most things with the console open will insert a tag for that thing into the console.

When the console is closed, only the most recent messages/commands will be displayed, but they will gradually fade away (opening the console will immediately re-display all recent messages).
Note that by default, all executed commands are made visible to all users. The fade-out time can be changed via '''Settings menu → Interface → Chat message delay'''.

The console can be cleared with the '''/clear''' command.

Use the {{keybinding|↑}} and {{keybinding|↓}} keys to scroll through the console history. The {{keybinding|Tab}} key provides intelligent code completion on commands, options and player names.

|}

This is a very powerful feature, which also allows cheating, and as such <span style="color:#FF0000">achievements will be permanently disabled for the save</span> as soon as you use a script command.

== Basic example scripts ==

=== Use it as calculator ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(1234*5678)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Zoom beyond normal bounds ===
Note that zooming too far out can cause performance hits. Be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.zoom=0.1
</syntaxhighlight>
In freeplay, the farthest you can zoom out is 0.3. In the map editor, it is 0.1. Smaller zoom values will be clamped.

=== Mine faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_mining_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Craft faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_crafting_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unlock and research all technologies ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.research_all_technologies()
</syntaxhighlight>

Undo this with the command in the next section.

Note: Specific technologies can be researched using the [[map editor]] by shift clicking the "start research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Unresearch all technologies ===
This does not reset manually applied bonuses
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
tech.researched=false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

Note: Specific technologies can be unresearched using the [[map editor]] by clicking the "un-research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Reset your force ===
This resets all data for your force, including kill and production statistics, technologies, bonuses and charting status.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Always show rail block visualization ===
Permanently show the rail block visualization instead of only when holding a rail signal. Disable by replacing true with false.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.game_view_settings.show_rail_block_visualisation = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Set all trains to Automatic mode ===
Set all trains to automatic mode - for example after building them with a blueprint.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for key,ent in pairs (game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{name="locomotive"}) do
ent.train.manual_mode = false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

== Inventory manipulation scripts ==

=== Cheat mode ===
Allows for infinite free crafting. Disable by replacing true with false.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.cheat_mode=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Refill resources (refill oil, iron etc.) ===
While holding the cursor over a resource tile in-game:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.amount=7500
</syntaxhighlight>

Alternatively you can refill all resources in the map with the following command. Change ore.amount to the desired value.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c surface = game.player.surface
for _, ore in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({type="resource"})) do
ore.amount = 10000

=== Add items to the player's inventory ===
Replace iron-plate with the [[data.raw|internal name]] of the item desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="iron-plate", count=100}
</syntaxhighlight>

For instance, here's a stack of the god-mode energy system interface:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="electric-energy-interface"}
</syntaxhighlight>

There are several god-mode items available:

* <code>infinity-chest</code>
* <code>infinity-pipe</code>
* <code>electric-energy-interface</code>
* <code>heat-interface</code>

Add a powerful armor with equipment and some tools for construction:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local player = game.player
player.insert{name="power-armor-mk2", count = 1}
local p_armor = player.get_inventory(5)[1].grid
p_armor.put({name = "fission-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fission-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fission-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "personal-roboport-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "night-vision-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
player.insert{name="construction-robot", count = 25}
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Increase player inventory slots ===
Gives 100 additional bonus inventory slots to your entire force. Used by the [[Toolbelt (research)]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.character_inventory_slots_bonus=100
</syntaxhighlight>

== World manipulation scripts ==

=== Reveal the map around the player ===

Reveals the map around the player, similar to a [[radar]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{game.player.position.x-radius, game.player.position.y-radius}, {game.player.position.x+radius, game.player.position.y+radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
or from start position
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{x = -radius, y = -radius}, {x = radius, y = radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
Change 150 to the desired radius, higher values take longer.

=== Hide revealed map ===

Hides all revealed chunks, inverted map revealing.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
force.unchart_chunk({x = chunk.x, y = chunk.y}, surface)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Reveal all generated map ===

Revels all of the generated map to the player's team.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.chart_all()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete chunks ===
If much of the map is revealed, it increases the size of the save file. The following command cancels the generation of all chunks that are currently queued for generation and removes chunks outside a 32 chunks radius around 0,0. Note that this will remove player entities if there are any on these chunks.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface;
game.player.force.cancel_charting(surface);
local chunk_radius = 32;
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if (chunk.x < -chunk_radius or chunk.x > chunk_radius or chunk.y < -chunk_radius or chunk.y > chunk_radius) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete unrevealed chunks ===
This command deletes chunks that are not revealed by the player. Can be used after the command for [[#Hide revealed map|hiding revealed map]] to delete the chunks not covered by radar.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if not force.is_chunk_charted(surface, chunk) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off night ===
Enables eternal day.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.always_day=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change game speed ===
0.5 is half speed, 1 is default, 2 is double speed, etc. Minimum is 0.01. This can be used for a lot of things like when you know you will have to wait for long periods of time for something to complete. Increasing will decrease performance, be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.speed=X
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Freeze time ===
Stops the advancement of the time. Unfreezes it if you by replace "true" with "false".
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.freeze_daytime=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.clear_pollution()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Completely turn off pollution ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
surface.clear_pollution()
end
game.map_settings.pollution.enabled = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add a lot of pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.pollute(game.player.position, 1000000)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Where speakers are, who placed them ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local speakers = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{force = game.player.force, type="programmable-speaker"}
for key, speaker in pairs(speakers) do
game.player.print(speaker.last_user.name .. " placed a speaker at " .. speaker.gps_tag)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable friendly fire for your force ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.friendly_fire = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new resource patch ===
This creates a new 11×11 patch of resources, centered on the player character, where the ground is not water.
The patch it creates is perfectly square but it randomizes the amount similar to natural generation, with fewer ore at the edges and more ore in the center.
The default numbers result in a patch with 2500-3000 ore.

If you want a larger patch, change "local size = 5" to a larger number.
A larger patch will have exponentially more ore.
Entering a number above 30 is not recommended.

If you want a richer patch, change "local density = 10" to a larger number.
Entering a very large number shouldn't hurt anything but you probably don't need to go above 100.

To choose which resource is spawned, change "stone" near the bottom to "iron-ore", "copper-ore", "coal", or "uranium-ore".

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local ore=nil
local size=5
local density=10
for y=-size, size do
for x=-size, size do
a=(size+1-math.abs(x))*10
b=(size+1-math.abs(y))*10
if a<b then
ore=math.random(a*density-a*(density-8), a*density+a*(density-8))
end
if b<a then
ore=math.random(b*density-b*(density-8), b*density+b*(density-8))
end
if surface.get_tile(game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y).collides_with("ground_tile") then
surface.create_entity({name="stone", amount=ore, position={game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y}})
end
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

For more flexibility, the [[map editor]] can also be used to create/alter/remove resource patches.

=== Remove resources around the player ===
Removes all resource patches from the ground in a 50 x 50 area around the player.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local size=50
local pos=game.player.position

for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{area={{pos.x-size, pos.y-size},{pos.x+size, pos.y+size}}, type="resource"})
do e.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new oil patch ===
This creates 9 crude oil patches in a 3×3 square.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for y=0,2 do
for x=0,2 do
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position={game.player.position.x+x*7-7, game.player.position.y+y*7-7}})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

or randomly without any collision:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local position=nil
for i=1,9 do
position=game.player.surface.find_non_colliding_position("crude-oil", game.player.position, 0, i/2+1.5)
if position then
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position=position})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new water patch ===

This creates a small pond in a 4x2 square.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c
local waterTiles = {}
for y=2,4 do
for x=-2,2 do
table.insert(waterTiles, {name="water", position={game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y}})
end
game.player.surface.set_tiles(waterTiles)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Regenerate resources ===
For solid resources like iron, destroys all resource entities and creates resource entities as in the original map generation. For fluid resources like oil, sets the yield of all existing resource entities to the original amount. Regenerates resources on the entire surface.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="resource"}) do
if e.prototype.infinite_resource then
e.amount = e.initial_amount
else
e.destroy()
end
end
local non_infinites = {}
for resource, prototype in pairs(prototypes.get_entity_filtered{{filter="type", type="resource"}}) do
if not prototype.infinite_resource then
table.insert(non_infinites, resource)
end
end
surface.regenerate_entity(non_infinites)
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="mining-drill"}) do
e.update_connections()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Count entities ===
Counts all entities whose name includes the string in local entity.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local entity="belt"
local surface=game.player.surface
local count=0
for key, ent in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force=game.player.force})) do
if string.find(ent.name,entity) then
count=count+1
end
end
game.player.print(count)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off cliff generation ===
Sets size to "none". Only effective on chunks that are generated after using this command. Use [[#Remove all cliffs]] to delete existing cliffs.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local mgs = game.player.surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.cliff_settings.cliff_elevation_0 = 1024
game.player.surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all cliffs ===
Removes all cliffs existing cliffs from the world. Use [[#Turn off cliff generation]] to turn off cliff generation in new chunks.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, v in pairs(game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="cliff"}) do
v.destroy()
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete all decoratives ===
Delete the decoratives that can be found in the world.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.destroy_decoratives({})</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change map generation settings ===
This allows to change the map generation settings for new chunks; it does not alter already generated chunks. [[#Delete chunks|Deleted chunks]] are affected by the setting change because they are newly generated when they get explored again.

To change resource generation settings, replace "iron-ore" with the [[Data.raw#resource|resource]] that should be changed and replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Concepts.html#MapGenSize MapGenSize] in the following command. Replace "iron-ore" with "enemy-base" to change the enemy base generation settings.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local resource = "iron-ore"
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].size = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].frequency = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].richness = "very-high"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

To change water generation settings, replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Concepts.html#MapGenSize MapGenSize] in the following command.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.water = "very-high" --[[ size]]
mgs.terrain_segmentation = "very-high" --[[ frequency]]
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs </syntaxhighlight>

=== Making a structure indestructible ===
This makes it impossible for an entity to be damaged or killed, e.g. by biters. Hover over the entity and then run:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.destructible = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Connect linked belts ===
If there exist at least two [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/prototypes/LinkedBeltPrototype.html linked belts], and one of them has the "Entity tag" <code>in</code>, and another linked belt has the "Entity tag" <code>out</code>, then the following command should link these two linked belts.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local i = game.get_entity_by_tag('in')
local o = game.get_entity_by_tag('out')
i.linked_belt_type = 'input'
o.linked_belt_type = 'output'
i.connect_linked_belts(o)
</syntaxhighlight>

== Enemy/evolution scripts ==

=== Set evolution factor ===
Ranges from 0 (new game) to 1.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].set_evolution_factor(X, game.player.surface)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable time-based evolution & increases pollution-based evolution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.time_factor=0
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor=game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor*2
</syntaxhighlight>

The "2" at the end of the last command will double the default pollution factor. You can substitute another number to increase (or decrease) the pollution factor further.

=== Kill all biters on the "enemy" force ===
Note that this will kill only mobile units, spawners will not be killed.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].kill_all_units()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all enemies ===
This will kill all biters, bases and worms. Anything that is an enemy will be completely destroyed. This only affects enemies in the generated world, so any unexplored parts of the map which still need to be generated will still have enemies. You can [[#Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks|prevent biters being on newly generated chunks]] if desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy"})) do
entity.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all nearby enemies ===

This will kill all biters, bases and worms in a configurable radius. The default, 250 tiles, is about two zoomed-out screen widths on full HD. After destruction, it shows how many objects were destroyed.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local pp = game.player.position
local cnt = 0
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy", radius=250, position=pp })) do
cnt = cnt+1
entity.destroy()
end
game.player.print(cnt)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable peaceful mode ===
Enabling peaceful mode prevents biter attacks until provoked. Substitute true for false to disable. Already existing biters are not affected by this command so attacks could continue for a while after activating peaceful mode.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.peaceful_mode = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable biter expansion ===
Biter expansion allows biters to create new nests, it is enabled by default. Substitute true for false to disable.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_expansion.enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks ===
On newly generated chunks no biters will be present, however all current biters will remain unaffected. Equivalent of setting the Enemy Base Size to None under the Terrain settings during map generation but achieved mid game by [[#Change map generation settings|changing map generation settings]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls["enemy-base"].size = "none"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs
</syntaxhighlight>

Instead of the command, it is also possible to use a GUI in the [[map editor]] to changing map generation settings mid game. Access the map editor with <code>/editor</code>, go to the "Surfaces" tab and click "Edit map gen settings".

== Player character scripts ==
Commands concerning the player directly.
=== Get player position ===
Prints coordinates of your current position.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.position)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Teleport player ===
Moves the player to the specified location. You should be able to teleport to a specific player if you obtain their coordinates via them executing the previous command and giving them to you.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.teleport({X, Y})
</syntaxhighlight>

To teleport to the world's origin, use 0,0.

To teleport to a different planet / surface, use:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.teleport({X, Y}, 'surface_name')
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable god mode ===
God mode removes your player character allowing you to fly over obstacles and take no damage.

Disassociate your controls from the character and destroy it:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character.destroy()
</syntaxhighlight>

To undo, spawn a player character. This will spawn a new character at the spawn point of the world, and connect your controls to it.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.create_character()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable long reach ===
Enables long reach, which allows the player to build and interact with entities at a greater distance. The default reach is 10.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local reach = 10000
game.player.force.character_build_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_reach_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_resource_reach_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_item_drop_distance_bonus = reach
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Find player corpses ===
Pings player corpses on the map.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local found_corpses = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="character-corpse"}
for _,corpse in pairs(found_corpses) do
local player = game.get_player(corpse.character_corpse_player_index)
local name = player and player.name or "????"
game.player.print(name .. " --> " .. corpse.gps_tag)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Run faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character_running_speed_modifier=3
</syntaxhighlight>

== Research scripts ==
=== Enable faster research ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.laboratory_speed_modifier=1
</syntaxhighlight>
-0.5 is half speed, 0 is normal speed, 1 is double speed, 2 is triple etc.

=== Research specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=true
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=true
</syntaxhighlight>

To research a high level of an infinite technology, set its level:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['worker-robots-speed-6'].level = 100
/c game.player.force.technologies['mining-productivity-4'].level = 100
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unresearch specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=false
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enabling specific recipes ===
The internal recipe/item names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.recipes["electric-energy-interface"].enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes["rocket-silo"].enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes.loader.enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes["fast-loader"].enabled = true
/c game.player.force.recipes["express-loader"].enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable all recipes ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for name, recipe in pairs(game.player.force.recipes) do recipe.enabled = true end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Resetting technology effects to default ===
This will reset the enabled/unlocked state of all recipes to what they would be purely based on the currently researched technologies, as well as resetting other technology effects like mining speed, etc. Any manual modifications to these effects and recipe unlocks will be undone.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset_technology_effects()
</syntaxhighlight>
Note: Can be used as a quick workaround when recipes are unavailable after adding or changing mods even though the technology unlocking them has already been researched.

== Modding tools ==
A list of the internal names of most things in the vanilla game can also be found on [[data.raw]].

=== Access a mod's data ===
If the first word of the command is __mod-name__ it will run in the context of the mod with the same name. For instance, this command prints the data from the Even Distribution mod:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c __even-distribution__ game.player.print(serpent.dump(global))
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Print to console the tile under the player ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.surface.get_tile(game.player.position).name)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write all researched technologies to file ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local list = {}
for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
if tech.researched then
list[#list+1] = tech.name
end
end
game.write_file("techs.lua", serpent.block(list) .. "\n", true)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write all enabled recipes to file ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local list = {}
for _, recipe in pairs(game.player.force.recipes) do
if recipe.enabled then
list[#list+1] = recipe.name
end
end
game.write_file("recipes.lua", serpent.block(list) .. "\n", true)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write mod list to file ===
Write all currently active mods and their version to the file script-output/mods.txt in the [[user data directory]].

Console

2024-04-07T18:05:34Z

Atraps003: /* Multiplayer commands */

{{Languages}}
The '''console''' is Factorio's in-game command-line interface. See [[command line parameters]] for the command line interface of the Factorio executable.

The in-game console can be used for:

* Chatting with other players
* Occasional status updates
* Running commands / scripts / cheats

There are three types of commands:

* '''[[#Normal commands|Normal]]''' - Display information about the game and customize your experience.
* '''[[#Multiplayer commands|Multiplayer]]''' - Message filtering, banning users, etc.
* '''[[#Scripting and cheat commands|Scripting/Cheating]]''' - Run small Lua scripts (but they <span style="color:#FF0000">disable achievements for the save game</span>)

__TOC__

=== Using the console ===
The console display can be toggled with the {{keybinding|/}} (slash) or {{keybinding|~}} (tilde) keys.

You can customize the keys via '''Settings menu → Controls → Toggle chat (and Lua console)'''.
When the console is open, you'll see a blinking cursor at the bottom of the screen; type your message or command and hit '''Return''' to send it (this will also close the console).
Documentation about message and command prefixes can be found further down this page.

The console supports [[rich text]] tags. These tags are useful for sharing blueprints, marking map locations in chat or adding icons to map markers and train stations. Ctrl + Alt-clicking the map or ground will automatically insert a GPS tag and post it into the console. Shift-clicking most things with the console open will insert a tag for that thing into the console.

When the console is closed, only the most recent messages/commands will be displayed, but they will gradually fade away (opening the console will immediately re-display all recent messages).
Note that by default, all executed commands are made visible to all users. The fade-out time can be changed via '''Settings menu → Interface → Chat message delay'''.

The console can be cleared with the '''/clear''' command.

Use the {{keybinding|↑}} and {{keybinding|↓}} keys to scroll through the console history. The {{keybinding|Tab}} key provides intelligent code completion on commands, options and player names.

|}

This is a very powerful feature, which also allows cheating, and as such <span style="color:#FF0000">achievements will be permanently disabled for the save</span> as soon as you use a script command.

== Basic example scripts ==

=== Use it as calculator ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(1234*5678)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Zoom beyond normal bounds ===
Note that zooming too far out can cause performance hits. Be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.zoom=0.1
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Mine faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_mining_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Craft faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_crafting_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unlock and research all technologies ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.research_all_technologies()
</syntaxhighlight>

Undo this with the command in the next section.

Note: Specific technologies can be researched using the [[map editor]] by shift clicking the "start research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Unresearch all technologies ===
This does not reset manually applied bonuses
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
tech.researched=false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

Note: Specific technologies can be unresearched using the [[map editor]] by clicking the "un-research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Reset your force ===
This resets all data for your force, including kill and production statistics, technologies, bonuses and charting status.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Always show rail block visualization ===
Permanently show the rail block visualization instead of only when holding a rail signal. Disable by replacing true with false.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.game_view_settings.show_rail_block_visualisation = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Set all trains to Automatic mode ===
Set all trains to automatic mode - for example after building them with a blueprint.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for key,ent in pairs (game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{name="locomotive"}) do
ent.train.manual_mode = false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

== Inventory manipulation scripts ==

=== Cheat mode ===
Allows for infinite free crafting. Disable by replacing true with false.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.cheat_mode=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Refill resources (refill oil, iron etc.) ===
While holding the cursor over a resource tile in-game:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.amount=7500
</syntaxhighlight>

Alternatively you can refill all resources in the map with the following command. Change ore.amount to the desired value.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c surface = game.player.surface
for _, ore in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({type="resource"})) do
ore.amount = 10000
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add items to the player's inventory ===
Replace iron-plate with the [[data.raw|internal name]] of the item desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="iron-plate", count=100}
</syntaxhighlight>

For instance, here's a stack of the god-mode energy system interface:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="electric-energy-interface"}
</syntaxhighlight>

There are several god-mode items available:

* <code>infinity-chest</code>
* <code>infinity-pipe</code>
* <code>electric-energy-interface</code>
* <code>heat-interface</code>

Add a powerful armor with equipment and some tools for construction:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local player = game.player
player.insert{name="power-armor-mk2", count = 1}
local p_armor = player.get_inventory(5)[1].grid
p_armor.put({name = "fusion-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fusion-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fusion-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "personal-roboport-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "night-vision-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
player.insert{name="construction-robot", count = 25}
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Increase player inventory slots ===
Gives 100 additional bonus inventory slots to your entire force. Used by the [[Toolbelt (research)]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.character_inventory_slots_bonus=100
</syntaxhighlight>

== World manipulation scripts ==

=== Reveal the map around the player ===

Reveals the map around the player, similar to a [[radar]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{game.player.position.x-radius, game.player.position.y-radius}, {game.player.position.x+radius, game.player.position.y+radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
or from start position
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{x = -radius, y = -radius}, {x = radius, y = radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
Change 150 to the desired radius, higher values take longer.

=== Hide revealed map ===

Hides all revealed chunks, inverted map revealing.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
force.unchart_chunk({x = chunk.x, y = chunk.y}, surface)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Reveal all generated map ===

Revels all of the generated map to the player's team.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.chart_all()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete chunks ===
If much of the map is revealed, it increases the size of the save file. The following command cancels the generation of all chunks that are currently queued for generation and removes chunks outside a 32 chunks radius around 0,0. Note that this will remove player entities if there are any on these chunks.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface;
game.player.force.cancel_charting(surface);
local chunk_radius = 32;
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if (chunk.x < -chunk_radius or chunk.x > chunk_radius or chunk.y < -chunk_radius or chunk.y > chunk_radius) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete unrevealed chunks ===
This command deletes chunks that are not revealed by the player. Can be used after the command for [[#Hide revealed map|hiding revealed map]] to delete the chunks not covered by radar.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if not force.is_chunk_charted(surface, chunk) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off night ===
Enables eternal day.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.always_day=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change game speed ===
0.5 is half speed, 1 is default, 2 is double speed, etc. Minimum is 0.01. This can be used for a lot of things like when you know you will have to wait for long periods of time for something to complete. Increasing will decrease performance, be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.speed=X
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Freeze time ===
Stops the advancement of the time. Unfreezes it if you by replace "true" with "false".
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.freeze_daytime=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.clear_pollution()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Completely turn off pollution ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
surface.clear_pollution()
end
game.map_settings.pollution.enabled = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add a lot of pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.pollute(game.player.position, 1000000)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Where speakers are, who placed them ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local speakers = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{force = game.player.force, type="programmable-speaker"}
for key, speaker in pairs(speakers) do
game.player.print(speaker.last_user.name .. " placed a speaker at [gps=" .. speaker.position.x .. "," .. speaker.position.y .. "]")
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable friendly fire for your force ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.friendly_fire = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new resource patch ===
This creates a new 11×11 patch of resources, centered on the player character, where the ground is not water.
The patch it creates is perfectly square but it randomizes the amount similar to natural generation, with fewer ore at the edges and more ore in the center.
The default numbers result in a patch with 2500-3000 ore.

If you want a larger patch, change "local size = 5" to a larger number.
A larger patch will have exponentially more ore.
Entering a number above 30 is not recommended.

If you want a richer patch, change "local density = 10" to a larger number.
Entering a very large number shouldn't hurt anything but you probably don't need to go above 100.

To choose which resource is spawned, change "stone" near the bottom to "iron-ore", "copper-ore", "coal", or "uranium-ore".

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local ore=nil
local size=5
local density=10
for y=-size, size do
for x=-size, size do
a=(size+1-math.abs(x))*10
b=(size+1-math.abs(y))*10
if a<b then
ore=math.random(a*density-a*(density-8), a*density+a*(density-8))
end
if b<a then
ore=math.random(b*density-b*(density-8), b*density+b*(density-8))
end
if surface.get_tile(game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y).collides_with("ground-tile") then
surface.create_entity({name="stone", amount=ore, position={game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y}})
end
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

For more flexibility, the [[map editor]] can also be used to create/alter/remove resource patches.

=== Remove resources around the player ===
Removes all resource patches from the ground in a 50 x 50 area around the player.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local size=50
local pos=game.player.position

for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{area={{pos.x-size, pos.y-size},{pos.x+size, pos.y+size}}, type="resource"})
do e.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new oil patch ===
This creates 9 crude oil patches in a 3×3 square.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for y=0,2 do
for x=0,2 do
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position={game.player.position.x+x*7-7, game.player.position.y+y*7-7}})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

or randomly without any collision:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local position=nil
for i=1,9 do
position=game.player.surface.find_non_colliding_position("crude-oil", game.player.position, 0, i/2+1.5)
if position then
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position=position})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Regenerate resources ===
For solid resources like iron, destroys all resource entities and creates resource entities as in the original map generation. For fluid resources like oil, sets the yield of all existing resource entities to the original amount. Regenerates resources on the entire surface.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="resource"}) do
if e.prototype.infinite_resource then
e.amount = e.initial_amount
else
e.destroy()
end
end
local non_infinites = {}
for resource, prototype in pairs(game.get_filtered_entity_prototypes{{filter="type", type="resource"}}) do
if not prototype.infinite_resource then
table.insert(non_infinites, resource)
end
end
surface.regenerate_entity(non_infinites)
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="mining-drill"}) do
e.update_connections()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Count entities ===
Counts all entities whose name includes the string in local entity.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local entity="belt"
local surface=game.player.surface
local count=0
for key, ent in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force=game.player.force})) do
if string.find(ent.name,entity) then
count=count+1
end
end
game.player.print(count)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off cliff generation ===
Sets size to "none". Only effective on chunks that are generated after using this command. Use [[#Remove all cliffs]] to delete existing cliffs.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local mgs = game.player.surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.cliff_settings.cliff_elevation_0 = 1024
game.player.surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all cliffs ===
Removes all cliffs existing cliffs from the world. Use [[#Turn off cliff generation]] to turn off cliff generation in new chunks.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, v in pairs(game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="cliff"}) do
v.destroy()
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete all decoratives ===
Delete the decoratives that can be found in the world.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.destroy_decoratives({})</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change map generation settings ===
This allows to change the map generation settings for new chunks; it does not alter already generated chunks. [[#Delete chunks|Deleted chunks]] are affected by the setting change because they are newly generated when they get explored again.

To change resource generation settings, replace "iron-ore" with the [[Data.raw#resource|resource]] that should be changed and replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Concepts.html#MapGenSize MapGenSize] in the following command. Replace "iron-ore" with "enemy-base" to change the enemy base generation settings.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local resource = "iron-ore"
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].size = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].frequency = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].richness = "very-high"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

To change water generation settings, replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Concepts.html#MapGenSize MapGenSize] in the following command.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.water = "very-high" --[[ size]]
mgs.terrain_segmentation = "very-high" --[[ frequency]]
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs </syntaxhighlight>

=== Making a structure indestructible ===
This makes it impossible for an entity to be damaged or killed, e.g. by biters. Hover over the entity and then run:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.destructible = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Connect linked belts ===
If there exist at least two [[Prototype/LinkedBelt|linked belts]], and one of them has the "Entity tag" <code>in</code>, and another linked belt has the "Entity tag" <code>out</code>, then the following command should link these two linked belts.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local i = game.get_entity_by_tag('in')
local o = game.get_entity_by_tag('out')
i.linked_belt_type = 'input'
o.linked_belt_type = 'output'
i.connect_linked_belts(o)
</syntaxhighlight>

== Enemy/evolution scripts ==

=== Set evolution factor ===
Ranges from 0 (new game) to 1.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].evolution_factor=X
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable time-based evolution & increases pollution-based evolution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.time_factor=0
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor=game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor*2
</syntaxhighlight>

The "2" at the end of the last command will double the default pollution factor. You can substitute another number to increase (or decrease) the pollution factor further.

=== Kill all biters on the "enemy" force ===
Note that this will kill only mobile units, spawners will not be killed.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].kill_all_units()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all enemies ===
This will kill all biters, bases and worms. Anything that is an enemy will be completely destroyed. This only affects enemies in the generated world, so any unexplored parts of the map which still need to be generated will still have enemies. You can [[#Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks|prevent biters being on newly generated chunks]] if desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy"})) do
entity.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all nearby enemies ===

This will kill all biters, bases and worms in a configurable radius. The default, 250 tiles, is about two zoomed-out screen widths on full HD. After destruction, it shows how many objects were destroyed.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local pp = game.player.position
local cnt = 0
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy", radius=250, position=pp })) do
cnt = cnt+1
entity.destroy()
end
game.player.print(cnt)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable peaceful mode ===
Enabling peaceful mode prevents biter attacks until provoked. Substitute true for false to disable. Already existing biters are not affected by this command so attacks could continue for a while after activating peaceful mode.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.peaceful_mode = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable biter expansion ===
Biter expansion allows biters to create new nests, it is enabled by default. Substitute true for false to disable.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_expansion.enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable enemy bases entirely ===
This map generator setting change requires you to open the editor and go to the "Surfaces" tab and select "nauvis" and press "Edit map gen settings". Here you can edit the enabling of enemy bases as well as other settings.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c editor
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks ===
On newly generated chunks no biters will be present, however all current biters will remain unaffected. Equivalent of setting the Enemy Base Size to None under the Terrain settings during map generation but achieved mid game by [[#Change map generation settings|changing map generation settings]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls["enemy-base"].size = "none"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs
</syntaxhighlight>

== Player character scripts ==
Commands concerning the player directly.
=== Get player position ===
Prints coordinates of your current position.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.position)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Teleport player ===
Moves the player to the specified location. You should be able to teleport to a specific player if you obtain their coordinates via them executing the previous command and giving them to you.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.teleport({X, Y})
</syntaxhighlight>

To teleport to the world's origin, use 0,0.

=== Enable god mode ===
God mode removes your player character allowing you to fly over obstacles and take no damage.

Disassociate your controls from the character and destroy it:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character.destroy()
</syntaxhighlight>

To undo, spawn a player character. This will spawn a new character at the spawn point of the world, and connect your controls to it.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.create_character()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable long reach ===
Enables long reach, which allows the player to build and interact with entities at a greater distance. The default reach is 10.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local reach = 10000
game.player.force.character_build_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_reach_distance_bonus = reach
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Find player corpses ===
Pings player corpses on the map.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local found_corpses = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="character-corpse"}
for _,corpse in pairs(found_corpses) do
local player = game.get_player(corpse.character_corpse_player_index)
local name = player and player.name or "????"
game.player.print(name .. " --> [gps=" .. corpse.position.x .. "," .. corpse.position.y .. "]")
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Run faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character_running_speed_modifier=3
</syntaxhighlight>

== Research scripts ==
=== Enable faster research ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.laboratory_speed_modifier=1
</syntaxhighlight>
-0.5 is half speed, 0 is normal speed, 1 is double speed, 2 is triple etc.

=== Research specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=true
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=true
</syntaxhighlight>

To research a high level of an infinite technology, set its level:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['worker-robots-speed-6'].level = 100
/c game.player.force.technologies['mining-productivity-4'].level = 100
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unresearch specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=false
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enabling specific recipes ===
The internal recipe/item names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.recipes["electric-energy-interface"].enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes["rocket-silo"].enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes.loader.enabled=true
/c game.player.force.recipes["fast-loader"].enabled = true
/c game.player.force.recipes["express-loader"].enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable all recipes ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for name, recipe in pairs(game.player.force.recipes) do recipe.enabled = true end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Resetting technology effects to default ===
This will reset the enabled/unlocked state of all recipes to what they would be purely based on the currently researched technologies, as well as resetting other technology effects like mining speed, etc. Any manual modifications to these effects and recipe unlocks will be undone.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset_technology_effects()
</syntaxhighlight>
Note: Can be used as a quick workaround when recipes are unavailable after adding or changing mods even though the technology unlocking them has already been researched.

== Modding tools ==
A list of the internal names of most things in the vanilla game can also be found on [[data.raw]].

=== Access a mod's data ===
If the first word of the command is __mod-name__ it will run in the context of the mod with the same name. For instance, this command prints the data from the Even Distribution mod:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c __even-distribution__ game.player.print(serpent.dump(global))
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Print to console the tile under the player ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.surface.get_tile(game.player.position).name)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write all researched technologies to file ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local list = {}
for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
if tech.researched then
list[#list+1] = tech.name
end
end
game.write_file("techs.lua", serpent.block(list) .. "\n", true)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write all enabled recipes to file ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local list = {}
for _, recipe in pairs(game.player.force.recipes) do
if recipe.enabled then
list[#list+1] = recipe.name
end
end
game.write_file("recipes.lua", serpent.block(list) .. "\n", true)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Write mod list to file ===
Write all currently active mods and their version to the file script-output/mods.txt in the [[user data directory]].

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.write_file("mods.txt", serpent.block(game.active_mods))
</syntaxhighlight>

== 1.1.0 ==
Date: 23.11.2020

=== Major Features ===

* Added logistic requests to spidertron.
* Train stop allows to set limit of incoming trains.

=== Features ===

* The continue button now respects the last type of game played (single player, MP host, MP client).
* Added support to use blueprints, deconstruction planners, upgrade planners, and modded selection tools from the map view.
* Hovering the alert notification will show arrows on the edge of the pointing to alert locations.
* Rich text icon selector.
* Newly unlocked recipes are highlighted until hovered.

* Added vertical/horizontal blueprint flipping.
* Transport belt drag building is locked into a line, can be turned off by an interface setting.
* Ghosts can be fast replaced and rotated.
* Ghost build can be used to fast replace non-ghost entities, which results in an upgrade order with (optionally) a direction change order.

=== Minor Features ===

* When editing blueprint: Added a way to specify relative grid position for blueprint that is snapping to absolute grid. Blueprint preview rendering box is updated based on selected grid size and position.
* Inventory transfer works on empty equipment grid slot the same as on empty inventory slot (moves all).
* Equipment can be placed by moving.
* Cursor replenishes when placing into the equipment grid the same way as when building in world.
* Spidertron item shows its color.
* Added a way to reset spidertron remote.
* Spider tries to move legs away when they are blocking robots construction.
* Power poles/underground belts built by dragging logic works also with ghost building.
* Power pole ghosts show connections.
* Power pole connections are saved in the blueprint. They still auto connect to other poles outside the blueprint.
* Entities marked for deconstruction show the target upgrade.
* Added tags, worker robots, rail signal states and recipes toggles into the settings to what show on the map.
* Added support to use the add-stop and add-temporary-stop controls for the train you're driving in the map view.

* Overall small entity update time reduction + statistics of how much update time is taken by individual entities.

=== Balancing ===

* Productivity module 1 decreases speed of the machine by 5% instead of 15%.
* Productivity module 2 decreases speed of the machine by 10% instead of 15%.

=== Changes ===

* the Close GUI key-binding (default value is "E") was renamed to Confirm Gui. It works the same as before for many cases (just closing the GUI), but in a lot of other cases, it works as confirm, which generally means the same as clicking the "green button".
* Renamed clean-cursor to clear-cursor on all the relevant places (locale, key-binding name)
* Equipment placing now uses the build key-binding instead of the cursor transfer. The default same key-binding is the same.
* Changed maximum temperature of all fluids apart water and steam to be the same as the default.
* Poles built by dragging are now actually build on the maximum connection distance from the last built pole instead of the previous logic that was working weird in a lot of corner cases.

* Clicking non-empty quickbar slot with something in cursor sets the quickbar slot to the cursor value rather than selecting the quickbar value.
* Invalid rail signals output no values into circuit network.
* Added a confirmation message when loading saves with removed mods or changed mod settings.
* The cut tool now properly includes trains. It showed trains in the selection preview, but ignored them.
* Added alternate control locales for keyboard and mouse scroll control binds. ([https://forums.factorio.com/83430 more])

=== Modding ===

* New item flag "spawnable", every item has to have that flag to be creatable through the shortcuts directly. ([https://forums.factorio.com/87777 more])
* Renamed create-blueprint-item shortcut action to spawn-item and item_to_create to item_to_spawn.
* Increased the total number of collision masks from 14 to 55. See the lua-api collision mask concepts page for which layers the game doesn't actively use.
* Changed collision mask 'layer-11' to 'rail-layer'.
* Changed collision mask 'layer-12' to 'transport-belt-layer'.
* Changed loader to only connect to the front belt, not from side. This is to fix internal problems related to modded loaders with custom sizes and side loading of it.
* Implemented NoiseExpressions::fromPropertyTree for the "offset-points" noise expression function.
* Removed rocket silo rocket prototype property "result_items" because it did nothing.
* Added draw_as_light and draw_as_glow property to sprite definitions. draw_as_shadow, draw_as_light and draw_as_glow are mutually exclusive and draw_as_shadow takes precedence.
* Unified laser and beam related ammo categories to just "laser" and "beam".
* Renamed technology "laser-turret-speed"->"laser-shooting-speed", it now affects both robots and laser turrets.
* Renamed technology "turrets"->"gun-turret", "laser-turrets"->"laser-turret", "combat-robotics"->"defender", "combat-robotics-2"->"distractor", "combat-robotics-3"->"destroyer" "tanks"->"tank", "stone-walls"->"stone-wall", "gates"->"gate"
* Internal spidertron specification in a way to make torso and leg scaling much easier.
* Renamed "source_effects" property of line trigger item to "range_effects", due to ambiguity with source_effects on action delivery. ([https://forums.factorio.com/90591 more])

* Removed 'small-plane', 'computer', 'railgun-dart' and 'railgun' items.
* Removed 'bait-chest', 'crash-site-assembling-machine-1-broken', 'crash-site-assembling-machine-1-repaired', 'crash-site-assembling-machine-2-broken', 'crash-site-assembling-machine-2-repaired', 'crash-site-electric-pole', 'crash-site-generator', 'crash-site-lab-broken' and 'crash-site-lab-repaired' entities.
* Removed the "auto-character-logistic-trash-slots" modifier and forceDataValues. The auto trash are now always enabled when any trash slots present.
* Added direction to SimpleEntityWithOwner and SimpleEntityWithForce.
* Constrained collision_box and collision_mask of transport belt connectable prototypes so it is not possible to build the entities in overlapping positions. ([https://forums.factorio.com/82294 more])
* Added optional draw_fluid_icon_override boolean to pipe to ground prototypes. Causes fluid icon to be drawn, ignoring the usual pair requirement.
* Removed fluid turret prototype property 'indicator_light'.
* Added fluid turret prototype properties 'enough_fuel_indicator_light' and 'not_enough_fuel_indicator_light'.
* Added locomotive and car prototype properties 'front_light_pictures' and 'darkness_to_render_light_animation'.
* Renamed logistic-container prototype property 'logistic_slots_count' to 'max_logistic_slots'.
* The data stage files are no longer divided into demo and non-demo. This means the files with the demo- prefix were either merged into files without the prefix and/or the prefix was removed from the file name.

=== Scripting ===

* Renamed the clean_cursor method to clear_cursor.
* Renamed on_put_item to on_pre_build, as it is much more precise name for that event. It fires when anything is used for building: item, blueprint, blueprint record or ghost cursor.
* Changed 'control_behavior.parameters.parameters' to just 'control_behavior.parameters' for LuaDeciderCombinatorControlBehavior, LuaConstantCombinatorControlBehavior, and LuaArithmeticCombinatorControlBehavior.
* Changed LuaItemStack::active_index to return `nil` if the blueprint book inventory has zero slots. ([https://forums.factorio.com/88427 more])
* Changed LuaItemStack::count to return 0 instead of failing when the stack is empty.
* Changed LuaControl for players in cutscenes so the character is still usable.
* Changed on_player_cancelled_crafting 'cancel_count' to report the exact number of crafts cancelled.
* Decoupled deactivation by script and deactivation by circuit network.
* mod-gui.lua no longer defines 'mod_gui' as a global variable, it is now only available when required: local mod_gui = require("mod-gui")
* Made LuaEntity::speed read work with spider-vehicle.
* Made LuaEntityPrototype::guns read work for spider-vehicle.
* Removed LuaEntityPrototype::production read.
* Removed LuaBootstrap::is_game_in_debug_mode read.
* Added LuaEntityPrototype::max_energy_production read.

{{Languages}}
The '''console''' is Factorio's in-game command-line interface. See [[command line parameters]] for the command line interface of the Factorio executable.

The in-game console can be used for:

* Chatting with other players
* Occasional status updates
* Running commands / scripts / cheats

There are three types of commands:

* '''[[#Normal commands|Normal]]''' - Display information about the game and customize your experience.
* '''[[#Multiplayer commands|Multiplayer]]''' - Message filtering, banning users, etc.
* '''[[#Scripting and cheat commands|Scripting/Cheating]]''' - Run small Lua scripts (but they <span style="color:#FF0000">disable achievements for the save game</span>)

__TOC__

=== Using the console ===
The console display can be toggled with the {{keybinding|/}} (slash) or {{keybinding|~}} (tilde) keys.

You can customize the keys via '''Settings menu → Controls → Toggle chat (and Lua console)'''.
When the console is open, you'll see a blinking cursor at the bottom of the screen; type your message or command and hit '''Return''' to send it (this will also close the console).
Documentation about message and command prefixes can be found further down this page.

The console supports [[rich text]] tags. These tags are useful for sharing blueprints, marking map locations in chat or adding icons to map markers and train stations. Ctrl + Alt-clicking the map or ground will automatically insert a GPS tag and post it into the console. Shift-clicking most things with the console open will insert a tag for that thing into the console.

When the console is closed, only the most recent messages/commands will be displayed, but they will gradually fade away (opening the console will immediately re-display all recent messages).
Note that by default, all executed commands are made visible to all users. The fade-out time can be changed via '''Settings menu → Interface → Chat message delay'''.

The console can be cleared with the '''/clear''' command.

Use the {{keybinding|↑}} and {{keybinding|↓}} keys to scroll through the console history. The {{keybinding|Tab}} key provides intelligent code completion on commands, options and player names.

This is a very powerful feature, which also allows cheating, and as such <span style="color:#FF0000">achievements will be permanently disabled for the save</span> as soon as you use a script command.

== Basic example scripts ==

=== Use it as calculator ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(1234*5678)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Zoom beyond normal bounds ===
Note that zooming too far out can cause performance hits. Be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.zoom=0.1
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Mine faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_mining_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Craft faster ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.manual_crafting_speed_modifier=1000
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unlock and research all technologies ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.research_all_technologies()
</syntaxhighlight>

Undo this with the command in the next section.

Note: Specific technologies can be researched using the [[map editor]] by shift clicking the "start research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Unresearch all technologies ===
This does not reset manually applied bonuses
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, tech in pairs(game.player.force.technologies) do
tech.researched=false
game.player.force.set_saved_technology_progress(tech, 0)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

Note: Specific technologies can be unresearched using the [[map editor]] by clicking the "un-research" button on the technology GUI.

=== Reset your force ===
This resets all data for your force, including kill and production statistics, technologies, bonuses and charting status.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.reset()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Always show rail block visualization ===
Permanently show the rail block visualization instead of only when holding a rail signal. Disable by replacing true with false.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.game_view_settings.show_rail_block_visualisation = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Set all trains to Automatic mode ===
Set all trains to automatic mode - for example after building them with a blueprint.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for key,ent in pairs (game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{name="locomotive"}) do
ent.train.manual_mode = false
end
</syntaxhighlight>

== Inventory manipulation scripts ==

=== Cheat mode ===
Allows for infinite free crafting. Disable by replacing true with false.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.cheat_mode=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Refill resources (refill oil, iron etc.) ===
While holding the cursor over a resource tile in-game:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.amount=7500
</syntaxhighlight>

Alternatively you can refill all resources in the map with the following command. Change ore.amount to the desired value.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c surface = game.player.surface
for _, ore in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({type="resource"})) do
ore.amount = 10000
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add items to the player's inventory ===
Replace iron-plate with the [[data.raw|internal name]] of the item desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="iron-plate", count=100}
</syntaxhighlight>

For instance, here's a stack of the god-mode energy system interface:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.insert{name="electric-energy-interface"}
</syntaxhighlight>

There are several god-mode items available:

* <code>infinity-chest</code>
* <code>infinity-pipe</code>
* <code>electric-energy-interface</code>
* <code>heat-interface</code>

Add a powerful armor with equipment and some tools for construction:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local player = game.player
player.insert{name="power-armor-mk2", count = 1}
local p_armor = player.get_inventory(5)[1].grid
p_armor.put({name = "fusion-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fusion-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "fusion-reactor-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "exoskeleton-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "energy-shield-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "personal-roboport-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "night-vision-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
p_armor.put({name = "battery-mk2-equipment"})
player.insert{name="construction-robot", count = 25}
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Increase player inventory slots ===
Gives 100 additional bonus inventory slots to your entire force. Used by the [[Toolbelt (research)]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.character_inventory_slots_bonus=100
</syntaxhighlight>

== World manipulation scripts ==

=== Reveal the map around the player ===

Reveals the map around the player, similar to a [[radar]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{game.player.position.x-radius, game.player.position.y-radius}, {game.player.position.x+radius, game.player.position.y+radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
or from start position
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local radius=150
game.player.force.chart(game.player.surface, {{x = -radius, y = -radius}, {x = radius, y = radius}})
</syntaxhighlight>
Change 150 to the desired radius, higher values take longer.

=== Hide revealed map ===

Hides all revealed chunks, inverted map revealing.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
force.unchart_chunk({x = chunk.x, y = chunk.y}, surface)
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Reveal all generated map ===

Revels all of the generated map to the player's team.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.chart_all()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete chunks ===
If much of the map is revealed, it increases the size of the save file. The following command cancels the generation of all chunks that are currently queued for generation and removes chunks outside a 32 chunks radius around 0,0. Note that this will remove player entities if there are any on these chunks.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface;
game.player.force.cancel_charting(surface);
local chunk_radius = 32;
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if (chunk.x < -chunk_radius or chunk.x > chunk_radius or chunk.y < -chunk_radius or chunk.y > chunk_radius) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete unrevealed chunks ===
This command deletes chunks that are not revealed by the player. Can be used after the command for [[#Hide revealed map|hiding revealed map]] to delete the chunks not covered by radar.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">/c local surface = game.player.surface
local force = game.player.force
for chunk in surface.get_chunks() do
if not force.is_chunk_charted(surface, chunk) then
surface.delete_chunk(chunk)
end
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off night ===
Enables eternal day.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.always_day=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change game speed ===
0.5 is half speed, 1 is default, 2 is double speed, etc. Minimum is 0.01. This can be used for a lot of things like when you know you will have to wait for long periods of time for something to complete. Increasing will decrease performance, be careful.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.speed=X
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Freeze time ===
Stops the advancement of the time if you replace "BOOL" with "true" or unfreezes it if you replace it with "false".
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.freeze_daytime=BOOL
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.clear_pollution()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Completely turn off pollution ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, surface in pairs(game.surfaces) do
surface.clear_pollution()
end
game.map_settings.pollution.enabled = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add a lot of pollution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.pollute(game.player.position, 1000000)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Where speakers are, who placed them ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local speakers = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{force = game.player.force, type="programmable-speaker"}
for key, speaker in pairs(speakers) do
game.player.print(speaker.last_user.name .. " placed a speaker at [gps=" .. speaker.position.x .. "," .. speaker.position.y .. "]")
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable friendly fire for your force ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.friendly_fire = false
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new resource patch ===
This creates a new 11×11 patch of resources, centered on the player character, where the ground is not water.
The patch it creates is perfectly square but it randomizes the amount similar to natural generation, with fewer ore at the edges and more ore in the center.
The default numbers result in a patch with 2500-3000 ore.

If you want a larger patch, change "local size = 5" to a larger number.
A larger patch will have exponentially more ore.
Entering a number above 30 is not recommended.

If you want a richer patch, change "local density = 10" to a larger number.
Entering a very large number shouldn't hurt anything but you probably don't need to go above 100.

To choose which resource is spawned, change "stone" near the bottom to "iron-ore", "copper-ore", "coal", or "uranium-ore".

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local ore=nil
local size=5
local density=10
for y=-size, size do
for x=-size, size do
a=(size+1-math.abs(x))*10
b=(size+1-math.abs(y))*10
if a<b then
ore=math.random(a*density-a*(density-8), a*density+a*(density-8))
end
if b<a then
ore=math.random(b*density-b*(density-8), b*density+b*(density-8))
end
if surface.get_tile(game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y).collides_with("ground-tile") then
surface.create_entity({name="stone", amount=ore, position={game.player.position.x+x, game.player.position.y+y}})
end
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove resources around the player ===
Removes all resource patches from the ground in a 50 x 50 area around the player.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local size=50
local pos=game.player.position

for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{area={{pos.x-size, pos.y-size},{pos.x+size, pos.y+size}}, type="resource"})
do e.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Add new oil patch ===
This creates 9 crude oil patches in a 3×3 square.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for y=0,2 do
for x=0,2 do
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position={game.player.position.x+x*7-7, game.player.position.y+y*7-7}})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

or randomly without any collision:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local position=nil
for i=1,9 do
position=game.player.surface.find_non_colliding_position("crude-oil", game.player.position, 0, i/2+1.5)
if position then
game.player.surface.create_entity({name="crude-oil", amount=100000, position=position})
end
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Regenerate resources ===
For solid resources like iron, destroys all resource entities and creates resource entities as in the original map generation. For fluid resources like oil, sets the yield of all existing resource entities to the original amount. Regenerates resources on the entire surface.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="resource"}) do
if e.prototype.infinite_resource then
e.amount = e.initial_amount
else
e.destroy()
end
end
local non_infinites = {}
for resource, prototype in pairs(game.get_filtered_entity_prototypes{{filter="type", type="resource"}}) do
if not prototype.infinite_resource then
table.insert(non_infinites, resource)
end
end
surface.regenerate_entity(non_infinites)
for _, e in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered{type="mining-drill"}) do
e.update_connections()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Create 10 fishes ===
This creates 10 fishes around of player. The player must be on the water edge.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local player = game.player
local surface = player.surface
for i = 1, 10 do
local position = surface.find_non_colliding_position('fish', player.position, 10, 1)
if not position then return end
surface.create_entity {name = 'fish', position = position}
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Count entities ===
Counts all entities whose name includes the string in local entity.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local entity="belt"
local surface=game.player.surface
local count=0
for key, ent in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force=game.player.force})) do
if string.find(ent.name,entity) then
count=count+1
end
end
game.player.print(count)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Turn off cliff generation ===
Sets size to "none". Only effective on chunks that are generated after using this command. Use [[#Remove all cliffs]] to delete existing cliffs.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local mgs = game.player.surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.cliff_settings.cliff_elevation_0 = 1024
game.player.surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove all cliffs ===
Removes all cliffs existing cliffs from the world. Use [[#Turn off cliff generation]] to turn off cliff generation in new chunks.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c for _, v in pairs(game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="cliff"}) do
v.destroy()
end</syntaxhighlight>

=== Delete all decoratives ===
Delete the decoratives that can be found in the world.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.destroy_decoratives({})</syntaxhighlight>

=== Change map generation settings ===
This allows to change the map generation settings for new chunks; it does not alter already generated chunks. [[#Delete chunks|Deleted chunks]] are affected by the setting change because they are newly generated when they get explored again.

To change resource generation settings, replace "iron-ore" with the [[Data.raw#resource|resource]] that should be changed and replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Concepts.html#MapGenSize MapGenSize] in the following command. Replace "iron-ore" with "enemy-base" to change the enemy base generation settings.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local resource = "iron-ore"
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].size = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].frequency = "very-high"
mgs.autoplace_controls[resource].richness = "very-high"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs</syntaxhighlight>

To change water generation settings, replace "very-high" with the desired [https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/Concepts.html#MapGenSize MapGenSize] in the following command.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.water = "very-high" --[[ size]]
mgs.terrain_segmentation = "very-high" --[[ frequency]]
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs </syntaxhighlight>

=== Connect linked belts ===
If there exist at least two [[Prototype/LinkedBelt|linked belts]], and one of them has the "Entity tag" <code>in</code>, and another linked belt has the "Entity tag" <code>out</code>, then the following command should link these two linked belts.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local i = game.get_entity_by_tag('in')
local o = game.get_entity_by_tag('out')
i.linked_belt_type = 'input'
o.linked_belt_type = 'output'
i.connect_linked_belts(o)
</syntaxhighlight>

== Enemy/evolution scripts ==

=== Set evolution factor ===
Ranges from 0 (new game) to 1.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].evolution_factor=X
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Disable time-based evolution & increases pollution-based evolution ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.time_factor=0
/c game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor=game.map_settings.enemy_evolution.pollution_factor*2
</syntaxhighlight>

The "2" at the end of the last command will double the default pollution factor. You can substitute another number to increase (or decrease) the pollution factor further.

=== Kill all biters on the "enemy" force ===
Note that this will kill only mobile units, spawners will not be killed.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.forces["enemy"].kill_all_units()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all enemies ===
This will kill all biters, bases and worms. Anything that is an enemy will be completely destroyed. This only affects enemies in the generated world, so any unexplored parts of the map which still need to be generated will still have enemies. You can [[#Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks|prevent biters being on newly generated chunks]] if desired.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy"})) do
entity.destroy()
end
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Kill all nearby enemies ===

This will kill all biters, bases and worms in a configurable radius. The default, 250 tiles, is about two zoomed-out screen widths on full HD. After destruction, it shows how many objects were destroyed.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface=game.player.surface
local pp = game.player.position
local cnt = 0
for key, entity in pairs(surface.find_entities_filtered({force="enemy", radius=250, position=pp })) do
cnt = cnt+1
entity.destroy()
end
game.player.print(cnt)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable peaceful mode ===
Enabling peaceful mode prevents biter attacks until provoked. Substitute true for false to disable. Already existing biters are not affected by this command so attacks could continue for a while after activating peaceful mode.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.surface.peaceful_mode = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable/Disable biter expansion ===
Biter expansion allows biters to create new nests, it is enabled by default. Substitute true for false to disable.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.map_settings.enemy_expansion.enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Prevent biters being on newly generated chunks ===
On newly generated chunks no biters will be present, however all current biters will remain unaffected. Equivalent of setting the Enemy Base Size to None under the Terrain settings during map generation but achieved mid game by [[#Change map generation settings|changing map generation settings]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local surface = game.player.surface
local mgs = surface.map_gen_settings
mgs.autoplace_controls["enemy-base"].size = "none"
surface.map_gen_settings = mgs
</syntaxhighlight>

== Player character scripts ==
Commands concerning the player directly.
=== Get player position ===
Prints coordinates of your current position.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.print(game.player.position.x .. ", " .. game.player.position.y)
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Teleport player ===
Moves the player to the specified location. You should be able to teleport to a specific player if you obtain their coordinates via them executing the previous command and giving them to you.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.teleport({X, Y})
</syntaxhighlight>

To teleport to the world's origin, use 0,0.

=== Enable god mode ===
God mode removes your player character allowing you to fly over obstacles and take no damage.

Disassociate your controls from the player:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.character=nil
</syntaxhighlight>

Then, hover the mouse over the useless player and destroy it by typing:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.selected.destroy()
</syntaxhighlight>

To undo, spawn a player character. This will spawn a new player at the spawn point of the world, and connect your controls to it.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.create_character()
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable long reach ===
Enables long reach, which allows the player to build and interact with entities at a greater distance. The default reach is 10.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local reach = 10000
game.player.force.character_build_distance_bonus = reach
game.player.force.character_reach_distance_bonus = reach
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Find player corpses ===
Pings player corpses on the map.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c local found_corpses = game.player.surface.find_entities_filtered{type="character-corpse"}

/c game.player.force.research_queue_enabled = true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Enable faster research ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.laboratory_speed_modifier=1
</syntaxhighlight>
-0.5 is half speed, 0 is normal speed, 1 is double speed, 2 is triple etc.

=== Research specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
/c game.player.force.technologies['electric-energy-distribution-1'].researched=true
/c game.player.force.technologies['steel-processing'].researched=true
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Unresearch specific technologies ===
The internal technology names can be found in the infoboxes on their respective pages.

Enemies

2023-02-21T18:52:57Z

Atraps003: /* Worms */

{{Languages}}
[[File:biter_intro.png|175px|right]]'''Enemies''' (also commonly called '''Biters''') are creatures that want to [[Damage|harm]] the [[player]]. They are the native inhabitants of the extraterrestrial world in the form of arthropods living in organic nests, coexisting with each other peacefully. They are encountered in three species: Biters, spitters and worms. The species are further distinguished in four stages of growth, and thus strength. Enemies and nests show up on the map as red dots. Much like the player, enemies can slowly regain lost health.

== Achievements ==
Enemies are directly connected to the following achievements:
{{Achievement|it-stinks-and-they-dont-like-it}}
{{Achievement|steamrolled}}

==Creatures==
===Biters===
Biters are one of two main antagonists in the game. They come in four sizes: small, medium, big and behemoth. In the beginning of a game, there will only be the small ones. With increasing [[pollution]], they will become bigger, related to the enemy's [[#Evolution|evolution]]. As common sense may suggest, their method of attack is a straightforward charge to "bite" things.

===Spitters===
'''Spitters''' are much like [[Enemies#Biters|biters]] and only appear slightly later on in the game as the evolution factor increases. Their main difference from biters is their ranged attack. Using predictive aiming, they spit a stream of acid at enemies which leaves behind a puddle of acid where it hits the ground. Due to the spitters' predictive aiming, the acid stream can be dodged by suddenly changing walking directions or standing still.[https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-279] Both the stream and the puddle of acid deal damage of time and slow down players and vehicles. Most entities of the game have a much lower resistance to acid than other damage types (including [[turret]]s and [[armor]]), so spitters are effectively more potent against the player and their factories. Their behaviour and size classification are the same as with biters, but their health is universally lower and they are resistant exclusively against explosives, with no physical resistance.

===Worms===

The Worms are natural allies of biters and spitters and will attack the player if they get close enough with an attack similar to spitters'. They act like static [[turret]]s and will not follow attackers. They rely on high damage, great range and splash damage to keep the player away from the worms and the nests they protect, but either one of these advantages can be overcome. Unlike other enemies, they are also highly resistant to fire. They will spit acid at the player, which can also leave acidic puddles on the ground that can still damage players and vehicles, as well as slow them both down and leave a brief acidic, damaging effect for a few seconds. However, placed buildings and tiles are unaffected by the acid puddles, but still take damage normally by the acid projectile.

Worms come in 4 sizes, their power increasing with size. Like biters and spitters, behemoth, big and medium worms spawning is influenced by the evolution factor. Worms are only created during enemy expansion when a certain evolution factor requirement is fulfilled. This is 0.3 for the medium worm, 0.5 for the big worm and 0.9 for the behemoth worm. Below these evolution factors, worms can only be created by the map generation. In map generation, the game restricts higher tier worms behind the distance from the starting point. The further away the player goes from the starting area, the stronger the worms become.

==Nests==

The spawn points of biters and spitters. While nests themselves are generally defenseless, the enemies they release over time effectively serve as a form of guards to distract the player and any nearby turrets, and are often accompanied by worms. Nests exposed to pollution will use it to send enemies to join attacks. Enemies not engaged in combat may seek out the nearest nest for protection.

The nests are highly resistant to fire and otherwise generally more resilient than a medium worm.

=== Expansions ===
Every 4-60 minutes, a group of 5-20 biters/spitters will leave their base to create a new base which will consist of as many worms/nests as there are members in the group. This group will search for a suitable spot that's 3-7 chunks away from existing bases. The interval between enemy expansions is global, and the higher enemy evolution, the shorter the interval is on average. Furthermore, with higher evolution, the groups are bigger on average.

Once they have found a suitable spot, each biter/spitter in the group dies and forms a new nest or worm. Forming a new nest or worm will destroy anything that is in the way, which can include members of the expansion group. There is a delay between each member sacrificing itself for to create a worm/nest, so creating the new base from the expansion group can take quite a long time, depending on the group size. Medium worms are only formed if the current evolution is higher than 0.3, big worms only if the current evolution is higher than 0.5 and behemoth worms are only formed if current evolution is higher than 0.9. The game randomly chooses whether to form a new biter nest, spitter nest, small worm, or bigger worm if the evolution factor is high enough. [https://gist.github.com/Bilka2/aa88490c23124a6f214c02c73a368aa7]

==Defense==
[[File:kills_gui.png|thumb|220px|right|"Kills" tab on the [[production statistics]] screen.]]Nests spawn biters and spitters freely. However, biters and spitters will only aggressively engage the player's factory if the pollution cloud of the factory reaches a nest because pollution is consumed to send biters or spitters to join the next attack. Every 1 to 10 minutes (random) the mustered biters launch an attack. If not all biters have arrived at the rendezvous point by that time, they will wait up to an additional 2 minutes for stragglers. The attack then proceeds to their target over the shortest path possible, accounting for terrain, but not for player entities that could pose an obstacle (like [[wall]]s).

If there is a clear path somewhere around those obstacles, the biters will attempt to go around. If there is no clear passage or a clear passage would mean deviating too far from the original course, the biters will attack whatever is in their way to go through. This can be exploited to an extent; creating mazes at regular intervals along a barrier can direct the biters through a gauntlet not dissimilar to tower defense.

However, if a biter comes in proximity of a [[Military units and structures|military unit or structure]], it will prioritize these and attempt to immediately attack them instead, again trying to reach the new target over the shortest possible path with no too great detours, if possible.

==Evolution==
[[File:Evolution Biters.png|thumb|right|400px|Spawn chances of biters from biter spawners by evolution factor.]]
[[File:Evolution Spitters.png|thumb|right|400px|Spawn chances of spitters from spitter spawners by evolution factor.]]
[[File:Evolution Weights.png|thumb|right|400px|Weight graph of both spawners by evolution factor. The values shown are primarily for indicating when certain types start and stop spawning, for actual chances refer to the tables or other charts.]]
The evolution factor is a global variable that determines what kind of biters will be spawned. You can check the variable in the dev console via the following command (does not disable achievements):

/evolution

The evolution factor goes from 0 (not evolved at all) to 1 (maximal evolution). The evolution factor can only increase.

This command also provides percentages for the three sources; each one is the percent of the (unsquashed) total evolution that is contributed by that source.

Besides choosing what kind of biter will be spawned, the evolution factor also influences the spawning interval. This interval (<code>spawning_cooldown</code> in the <code>enemy-spawner</code> definition) is interpolated between 360 (0 evolution) and 150 (1 evolution) game ticks (= 6 to 2.5 seconds).

=== Methods of increasing ===

The evolution factor is increased by three kinds of events:

* The passage of time very slightly increases the evolution factor.
* The global [[Pollution|pollution production]] increases the evolution factor.
* Destroying [[Enemies#Nests|nests]] significantly increases the evolution factor.

The default settings are:

{| class="wikitable"
!Source per
!Variable in <code>enemy_evolution</code>
!Evolution increase
|-
| [[Time#Seconds|Second]] || <code>time_factor</code> || 0.000004
|-
| Destroyed enemy spawner || <code>destroy_factor</code> || 0.002
|-
| 1 Pollution unit || <code>pollution_factor</code> || 0.0000009
|}

These values can be set during [[Map_generator#Enemy|world generation]]: the values in the dialog box are multiplied by 10^-7 for time and pollution, and 10^-5 for spawner destruction. In game, they can be found in <code>game.map_settings.enemy_evolution</code>, though checking or modifying them is considered using cheats.

Pollution production is the total pollution produced by [[Pollution#Polluters|buildings]], not the pollution spreading on the map, so it is not reduced by trees or other absorbers.
e.g. : 10 boilers produce 300 pollution in one minute, raising the evolution factor by around 0.00027 in that minute.

After totaling up all the evolution from these sources, this quantity is squashed to fit in the range <code>[0, 1)</code> by applying <code>evolution_factor = total_evolution / (1 + total_evolution)</code>.

Equivalently, marginal increases in evolution are reduced by multiplying the increase by <code>(1 - evolution_factor)²</code>. So for instance destroying enemy spawners in the beginning of the game results in increase of evolution factor by 0.002 while doing this when the evolution factor is 0.5 the increase is only 0.0005.

This also means that the evolution factor approaches 1 asymptotically - generally, increases past 0.9 or so are ''very'' slow and the number never actually reaches 1.0.

=== Spawn chances by evolution factor ===

The probability charts show the chances of each type of biter/spitter for each spawner at all evolution levels.

=== Advanced: Evolution factor components and computation ===
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:calc(100%-400px); overflow:auto;">
This section has charts plotting the individual evolution factor components and discusses possibilities for manually estimating the evolution factor.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">

[[File:Evolution_factor_by_time.png|400px|thumb|right|1. Single-component evolution factor increase with time]]
[[File:Evolution_factor_by_spawners.png|400px|thumb|right|2. Single-component evolution factor increase with destroyed spawners]]
[[File:Evolution_factor_by_pollution.png|400px|thumb|right|3. Single-component evolution factor increase with pollution]]

'''Notes'''

* Data from version 1.1.50.

* All charts end at approximately an evolution factor of 0.90.

* The calculation steps for time and spawner kills match those used by the game, so these charts should be accurate. The pollution chart assumes a pollution production of 1000 units per second, and due to the recursive nature of the chart values will slightly diverge at different pollution rates. The effect of this is negligible for any reasonable amount pollution production, however.

* Given that the game reports the actual evolution factor (console: <code>/evolution</code>) whenever the player wishes, these charts are intended primarily to help estimate the impact of planned base expansions and similar activities on the evolution factor's future development.

'''Comments'''

These charts (click to enlarge) represent the situation where each evolution factor component (time, pollution, destroyed spawners) is the ''only'' component contributing to the evolution factor in that entire game. They are therefore '''not realistic''', as in a typical game all three components will contribute, some at varying times and intensities.

Because of how contributions to the evolution factor (EF) are calculated (multiplied by <code>(1 - current EF)</code>), it is '''not''' possible to simply add the values indicated by these charts for a game's time passed, pollution generated, and / or spawners destroyed so far to retrieve the total evolution factor.

For example, if 24 hours have passed (single-component EF =~ 0.25), 200,000 pollution units were released (single-component EF =~ 0.15), and 400 spawners were destroyed (single-component EF =~ 0.45), the actual evolution factor will '''not''' be (0.25 + 0.15 + 0.45 =) ~0.85.

However, the evolution factor will always be '''less''' than the sum of all individual components as indicated by these charts, and '''at least''' as high as the highest individual component. Thus, using the values from above, the EF will be ''at least'' 0.35 and ''less than'' 0.85. A smarter approach is required to compute the current evolution factor.

'''Individual components'''

The individual components of evolution can be approximated from <code>/evolution</code>:

Given the evolution factor, the unsquashed evolution is <code>unsquashed = evolution_factor / (1 - evolution_factor)</code>. Multiply this by the percentage for a given component to get its approximate unsquashed contribution. Of course, total pollution and spawner kills can also be found on the [[Production_statistics|production statistics]] screen, and time passed can be found using the <code>/time</code> command, so it's not fully necessary.

The actual factors can be found in <code>game.forces.enemy.evolution_factor_by_time</code>, <code>...evolution_factor_by_killing_spawners</code>, and <code>...evolution_factor_by_pollution</code>, if you don't mind disabling achievements.
