 In the first level, the player is tasked with mining some resources which are needed to craft and place a [[burner mining drill]] and a [[stone furnace]].
 === Mining outpost ===
 In the second level, the player is tasked with building some more furnaces and mining drills. They will encounter some [[enemies|small biters]] that they need to fight off. The end goal is to carry 150 [[iron plate]]s, 50 [[copper plate]]s and 75 [[coal]] in the player inventory.

 In the third, the player is tasked with completing an existing steam engine and boiler setup by placing an [[offshore pump]], some [[pipe]]s and [[small electric pole]]s. Then, the player is tasked with building 3 [[radar]]s and letting them scan 50 sectors as the final goal. During this, the player may get attacked by biters.

 === Science and automation ===
 The fourth level introduces science and research. The player is tasked with building a [[lab]] and researching [[stone wall]]s, and then [[Automobilism (research)|automobilism]]. Then, the player must build and load a [[car]] with materials. There are several nearby biter [[nests]] which the player must attack or defend against.

 === Abandoned rail base ===
 In the fifth and last level of the tutorial, the player arrives at a partially destroyed factory with an inoperable railway stop. The player is tasked with repairing the base and setting up automated rail transport to nearby iron and copper ore mines, then loading their car again with supplies, including [[Piercing rounds magazine|piercing rounds]] and [[solar panel]]s. After meeting the objectives, the player can continue to explore this level as long as they want. Some of the things to discover include a distant solar and [[accumulator]] farm, abandoned [[laser turret]]s, and [[uranium ore]] that cannot be mined due to [[sulfuric acid]] not being available (there are no [[crude oil]] patches on the map, and [[research]] is limited).

	The ''~~campaign~~'' ~~gamemode~~ is Factorio's equivalent of a story mode. ~~Campaigns are~~ pre-generated levels where the [[player]] must accomplish some preset ~~task~~, such as scanning the surroundings, [[~~research~~]]~~ing a certain technology, or providing a certain amount of resources into a chest~~. Upon completion, a game finish report is given, similar to freeplay, where kills and completion time are tallied. Completing the ~~campaigns~~ is not necessary to play freeplay.		{{about\|Factorio's in-game tutorial\|community-created tutorials hosted on this wiki\|Tutorials}}[[File:New game gui.png\|thumb\|right\|The menu to enter the tutorial.]]
			The '''tutorial''' is Factorio's equivalent of a story mode. The tutorial consists of pre-generated levels where the [[player]] must accomplish some preset tasks, such as obtaining a certain amount of resources or scanning the surroundings with [[radar]]s. Upon level completion, a game finish report is given, similar to freeplay, where kills and completion time are tallied. Completing the tutorial is not necessary to play freeplay.

	~~== Playing~~ the ~~campaign ==~~		To start the tutorial, select ''Single player'' from the title screen, ''New game'' and then ''Tutorial'' in the ''Main game'' section.
	~~[[File:Campaign_menu_screen.png\|thumb\|right\|The menu to enter a Campaign~~.]]

	~~To play a campaign~~, ~~select '''Play''' from~~ the ~~title screen, then '''Start campaign'''. Select~~ a ~~campaign,~~ and ~~level, if applicable~~.		== Levels ==

			In the first level, the player is tasked with mining some resources which are needed to craft and place a [[burner mining drill]] and a [[stone furnace]].

	~~The campaign will load~~, and ~~instructions~~ will ~~be displayed~~ to ~~the player~~. ~~Then~~, the player ~~may complete the task. For an added challenge, attempt to complete the campaign as fast as possible~~.		=== Mining outpost ===
			In the second level, the player is tasked with building some more furnaces and mining drills. They will encounter some [[enemies\|small biters]] that they need to fight off. The end goal is to carry 150 [[iron plate]]s, 50 [[copper plate]]s and 75 [[coal]] in the player inventory.

			In the third and last level, the player is tasked with completing an existing steam engine and boiler setup by placing an [[offshore pump]], some [[pipe]]s and [[small electric pole]]s. Then, the player is tasked with building 3 [[radar]]s and letting them scan 50 sectors as the final goal. During this, the player may get attacked by biters.
	~~There are a few different types of campaigns in Factorio. These types include:~~

	~~=== Introduction~~ ===

	~~:''After crash landing on this alien world you will need to explore~~ the ~~area, harvest local resources~~ and ~~automate producing the items you need to survive.''~~

	~~This campaign has only 1~~ level, ~~called "Arrival". The Introduction~~ is ~~included~~ with ~~the demo.~~

	[[~~File:Compilatron_entity.png\|thumb\|right\|Compilatron~~]]

	~~The Introduction explains basic concepts like mining~~, ~~crafting automation, research and enemies. The player has to automate~~ [[~~automation science pack~~]]s~~, build a radar~~ and ~~is then attacked by~~ [[~~enemies\|biters~~]]. ~~To escape the biters~~, the player ~~moves to a new base location where they have to set up~~ [[~~power production~~]]~~, automate more products~~ and ~~fight off an increasing amount of enemies while researching some technologies~~. During this ~~journey~~, the player ~~is accompanied~~ by ~~a robot companion called "Compilatron" which gives some goals to the player and offers assistance in the from of placing some buildings to improve mining automation.~~

	~~=== Transport belt madness ===~~

	~~So many chests and such a small island. Can you connect the chests without your head spinning?~~

	~~=== Tight spot ===~~

	~~Little space, limited resources and a fixed amount of time. Buy land and machines and sell your final product~~.
