Two new Factories Added "Component Factory" and "??? Factory"
Timer on generation and ore/liquid/salave have been heavily nurfed
Welcome to Idle Factories, the No.1 location for all your Idle needs.
This mod intends to break the "I need to go mining for ores" and instead gives you a bit of freedom to do other things, however, you still to get the base resources in making these factories, so its technically not 100% lasiness
Idle Factories comes with many, many different factory types such as: Ore Drillers (Lots'a ores and specific ores depending on the factory type) Mineral Drillers (Specific factories produce different block types) Pumps (We know what these do, or I should hope so) Specials (Extra factories with unique loadouts, such as the Forester Cutter, which generates wood)
And a hole lot more!
