Allows the player to configure any machine from the map, without allowing item transfer so it maintains the vanilla feel. Allows wire placement and entity settings copy/paste at any distance. Press R to issue a rotation request, right-click to mark for deconstruction. Less cheaty alternative to Far Reach. Similar to Space Exploration's Navigation Satellite, but works entirely within map view.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge QoL for megabase builders—no more running across the map to tweak a single assembler.
- Wire placement from map view is a game-changer for circuit networks.
- Copy/paste settings at any distance saves hours of repetitive setup.
⚠️ Cons
- No item transfer means you still need logistics for materials—don't expect full remote building.
- Only 0.033 endorsements suggests it's not widely tested or popular yet.
- Last updated in April 2024—may not be compatible with the latest Factorio versions.
Perfect for veteran players managing sprawling bases who want to tweak settings without traveling. Also great for circuit network enthusiasts who want to place wires from map view. Casual players might find it less useful if they stick to small bases.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use the copy/paste feature to quickly replicate settings across multiple machines.
- Remember that rotation requests (R) work from map view—great for aligning entities without visiting.
- Right-click from map view to mark deconstruction, but ensure you have bots to actually remove them.
