Factorio Planner helps you plan your factories by computing how many resources and machines you need to produce a given throughput of resources. Try it here: http://doomeer.com/factorio

Current Version

Recipes for Factorio version 0.17.

Architecture

Factorio Planner is written in OCaml, but is then compiled to Javascript using js_of_ocaml.

  • index.html is the HTML page which loads the Javascript.
  • factorio.js is the Javascript compiled from the OCaml code. It is included in the repository in case you don't want to compile it.
  • factoriojs.ml is the main file, which implements the Web interface.
  • factorio.ml contains type definitions and the code to compute ressource summaries.
  • recipes.ml contains maker and ressource definitions. This is the file you want to modify to change ingredients or add new ressources.
  • html.mli is the interface to html.ml, which provides helpers for Web interfaces.
