✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- 14.5k endorsements show the community trusts this as a solid base.
- Covers a huge range of helper functions—prototypes, GUIs, migrations, even starmaps—so you won't need to reinvent the wheel.
- No hard third-party dependencies means fewer compatibility headaches when stacking mods.
⚠️ Cons
- It's a library, not a standalone gameplay mod—you'll need other Szentigrade mods to see it in action.
- If you're not a modder, this does nothing for your game directly.
- Compatibility risk: since it's a core dependency, other mods may require a specific version, and updates could break them.
This is for Factorio mod developers who want a reliable, all-in-one utility pack to speed up their own mod creation. It's also for players who use Szentigrade's mods and need the core installed as a dependency.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're installing this manually, drop the folder into your Factorio mods directory—no extra steps needed.
- Since it's a dependency, make sure you install it before enabling any Szentigrade mods that require it.
- Check the mod's page for a list of compatible mods if you're unsure which ones need this core.
