Factorio Calculator

This is the repostory for the Factorio Calculator, a tool for calculating resource requirements and production ratios in the game Factorio.

Running locally

The calculator consists entirely of static files (HTML, JS, CSS), and may be run locally using any HTTP server. If you have Python 3 installed, you can start a simple development server on port 8000 with:

$ python3 -m http.server 8000

An experimental standalone version of the calculator named factoriocalc, which will automatically obtain the game data from your locally installed mods, is also available from the factorio-tools repository. A Windows build is available from the project's releases page.

Dumping new datasets

The utility for dumping datasets from the game, as well as assembling the sprite sheets, is called factoriodump, and may be found in the factorio-tools repository.
