Turrets in the middle of hives is the only thing "cheaty" about far reach. For the other 99.9% of your time it's handy for factory building and laying rail.

Eh.
Stuff is definitely still cheating in singleplayer. The difference is that it's perfectly fine for you to do.

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!

Things like that long reach should be something you can enable through console commands, like some kind of 'sv_cheats 1' deal that disables achievements. Doubt that things like that are a top priority for them though.

Some have dependencies of other mods. Some require 1 of the dozen Bobs even if you don't use Bob. Start reading.

No easy guide to mods somewhere?

Add one at a time and see what breaks. Most of the big ones have a forum thread. They are all version dependent so update to latest experimental. It's the most stable and mods update to it.

That feeling when you turn on rampant AI on a factory that was built without that mod...

That changes the game rather than just make it "more complex vanilla".

...Aren't all mods by definition derivative? I guess we're talking degrees here.

Who wants to do a total rehaul of Factorio?

The moving train factory was one. But no, there's not much else.

Slight bit of a bump, but just figured I'd mention that version 0.15 is out. You just have to opt-in to it because it's considered an experimental release.

It'll be experimental until they work a bunch of kinks out.
