Factorio-Stdlib

Factorio Standard Library Project

About

The Factorio Standard Library is a project to bring Factorio modders high-quality, commonly-required utilities and tools that developers have been often copying around, remixing, and rewriting poor quality copies of. Factorio mods often re-implement basic tools like logging, math calculations, and position or area manipulation. These common operations can be a subtle source of errors and their regular occurance has encouraged the creation of the Factorio Stdlib, as a toolbox and set of utilities for modders. Factorio Standard Library APIs are all unit-tested, documented, and high quality, and written to be simple and straightforward for the earliest beginners and seasoned developers alike.

Usage
