📋 About This Mod

# Retro Factory Manager An addon for (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/super-factory-manager) that lets you write SFM programs as a node graph instead of as text. Requires Super Factory Manager. !(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/breakinblocks/RetroSFM/main/metadata/screenshots/editor-overview.png) ## What you get Open a Disk or a Factory Manager and you get a canvas instead of a text box. Place a trigger, chain Input and Output nodes onto it, branch with If nodes, and the SFML is written for you as you go. The preview panel shows exactly what will be saved. Everything the language can do is in the editor: intervals and redstone triggers, amounts and retain amounts, multiple filters per node, item and tag filters, except lists, sides, slot ranges, round robin, conditions, Forget and Comment nodes. ## Picking items and labels Type a few letters and pick what you want from a list with icons. Items, fluids, gases and energy are all searchable, so you do not need to remember ids. !(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/breakinblocks/RetroSFM/main/metadata/screenshots/item-search.png) Labels come from your label gun, and the editor shows how many blocks each label covers so you can spot one you forgot to assign. ## Already have programs? Open one and press Import to canvas. It is rebuilt as a graph, and the editor checks its own work and tells you whether anything was lost. Your programs stay normal SFM programs. You can copy the text, share it, or switch back to the text editor whenever you want. The node layout is saved with the program, so reopening the editor gives you your graph back. ## Setup Install both mods, then open `config/sfm-client-program-editor.toml` and set: ```toml preferredEditor = "retrofactorymanager:blueprint" ``` Right click a Disk, or press Edit in a Factory Manager, and the canvas opens. Set it back to `sfm:v1` at any time to return to the text editor. ## Controls | Action | How | |---|---| | Add a node | Right click the canvas | | Add a connected node | Drag from a pin and release on empty space | | Connect nodes | Drag from one pin to another | | Disconnect | Alt click a pin or a wire | | Move around | Drag with middle or right mouse button | | Zoom | Scroll wheel | | Select | Click, shift click, or drag a box | | Delete | Select and press Delete | | Undo and redo | Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y | | Copy, paste, duplicate | Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+D | | Snap to grid | Press G | | Frame everything | Press Home | ## Credits Thanks to TeamDman for Super Factory Manager and for making the editor pluggable, and to vswe for the original Steve's Factory Manager.

## What you get

Open a Disk or a Factory Manager and you get a canvas instead of a text box. Place a trigger, chain Input and Output nodes onto it, branch with If nodes, and the SFML is written for you as you go. The preview panel shows exactly what will be saved.

Labels come from your label gun, and the editor shows how many blocks each label covers so you can spot one you forgot to assign.

## Already have programs?

Open one and press Import to canvas. It is rebuilt as a graph, and the editor checks its own work and tells you whether anything was lost.

```toml preferredEditor = "retrofactorymanager:blueprint" ```

Right click a Disk, or press Edit in a Factory Manager, and the canvas opens. Set it back to `sfm:v1` at any time to return to the text editor.
