Dectorio

Dectorio is a large mod that adds decorative elements to beautify your factory. New technology research is required to unlock the various items before they can be crafted and some default recipes are adjusted to better reflect how these items should be made.

Inspiration for the mod came from a lot of other mods on the portal, although all the assets in Dectorio have been custom made for this mod and are either modified versions of base game assets or created from scratch. If you'd like to use any of these in your own mod, please observe the GNU GPLv3 license.

Requires Factorio version 0.15 or later.

General

  • Includes settings for enabling or disabling each of the above features (Options > Mods > Startup). Ideally these should only be changed before starting a new game. Changes on existing games will require content to be migrated and some items may be lost if you disable components you've already used on an existing save. Always make a backup first!

    Mod settings

  • Items above marked ^ can be further customised in the mod settings dialog

Bugs & Suggestions

Feel free to get in touch with any issues or suggestions for new features you'd like to see. You can get in contact via the GitHub issues page at https://git.io/DectorioIssues. I'm also occasionally online on the Factorio Discord or Forums.

Community Translations

Dectorio uses CrowdIn to allow the community to translate the mod from English into various languages. If you are able to translate the mod into another language, please visit the Dectorio project on CrowdIn to help with the translation effort. Requests for new languages are welcome!

Special thanks to the translators below (in no particular order).

Mod Compatibility

Note: If playing on older versions of Factorio, check the FAQ page for the correct Dectorio version to use.

Limited testing has been completed with other mods. Warnings will be shown in-game to highlight any known issues. If you come across a specific compatibility issue, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix it.

It is not recommended to use other coloured signal mods at the same time as Dectorio. This can cause coloured signals to be overwritten multiple times and lead to game-breaking compatibility issues with other mods. If you would like more colours, you can add these in the Dectorio config.lua file (instructions are in the file). For full details, visit the FAQ.

Dectorio includes specific support for Alien Biomes.

Other mods with additional Dectorio support (thanks!): Concreep, Fully Automated Rail Layer (FARL), Pavement Drive Assist, Text Plates and Space Exploration.

Other decorative mods worth checking out (all compatible with Dectorio): Arborium, Asphalt Roads, Beautiful Bridge Railway, Color Coding, Naked Rails, Reinforced Walls.

Mods with known compatibility issues with Dectorio (don't install these): Thaumaturgic Machinations and Expanded Color Lamps.
