✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- 1,633 endorsements and 92k+ downloads show it's a trusted utility in the community.
- Hotkey-driven design means you can toggle visualizations without breaking your flow.
- Color-by-fluid vs color-by-system toggle helps you spot cross-contamination or network splits instantly.
⚠️ Cons
- Explicitly marked as 1.1 ONLY, so it won't work on other Factorio versions without potential issues.
- Visualizing all systems at once (Shift+H) could get visually cluttered on huge bases.
- Requires learning multiple hotkey combos, which might take a moment to memorize.
This is for Factorio players who are tired of tracing pipes manually to find where fluids are going or why a system isn't flowing. It's also great for megabase builders who need to debug complex fluid networks quickly without mods that alter gameplay.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use Alt+H to quickly inspect pipes as you hover over them, especially when troubleshooting a stalled production line.
- Toggle Control+H to switch between color-by-fluid and color-by-system to identify if different fluids are mixing in the same network.
- Combine with the in-game map view to spot large-scale fluid distribution issues across your factory.
