Could you get this working with the mod that takes a screenshot of the entire map? Could you link me to the mod you are talking about? After about 10 minutes of searching, I found it: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=92&t=14582 This mod doesn't simply create "screenshots&q...

The technology pictures are really outstanding, if that's what you call a "first version" then Albert is a god-like artist. I personally also don't think there will be any problems with "industry niche" filling up, Big Pharma and Infinifactory are both mostly puzzle games, only F...

Also i implement previous suggestion by creating script-output symlink to my other drive, it's perfect !
Now i 'm not worrying about running low space, ever.

Fantastic to hear.
I experimented with symlinks aswell, but couldn't get it to work right.

I have low space on my system drive, but plenty of free space on other drive. Is it possible instead of PNG, it saves as JPG ? Or how do we change the default saves location ? Can it be saves outside script-output directory? I'm sorry for my late reply. I'm currently trying a couple of things, I wi...

Thanks!

Could you also post your config file for this mod, as there might be a conflict with the way I handle my "only daytime screenshots" option.

What exactly do you mean? Does the game turn to night and never turn back to day?
What version of Factorio / the mod are you using?

Hey, it would be nice if the screenshot names could be "NAME" (from config), and then not 1 , 2 , 3 but 0001 , 0002 , 0003 :) I'm not quite sure what difference that would make, but I'm going to look into it later this week, it shouldn't be a problem It's for sorting. Most of file sorting...

I'm fairly new to mods and if a mod can add commands to the game, if so I'd be nice to be able to set the center of the screenshot in the config with a command. This feature was just added in version 1.2.0, sadly it isn't able to save the changes to the config file, this has to be done manually aft...

Thanks for the answer

I was wondering if there is a way to make custom commands so that players can customize parts of your mod without editing any files.
The only useful thing I found with the search function is this thread, but using remote.call(...) is not really user friendly.

Hey, "crazy" idea, couyld you make it take the screenshot when the game autosaves ? that way, no problems with laggy games, and if the game tries to generate a huge image that could make the game lag, it won't be "seen" Theoretically that would work, by calling my screenshot cod...

I'll settle for a low quality giffy, with my zoom set so far out it doesn't make much of a difference http://www.gfycat.com/RelievedDentalHackee Very nice! Might I ask how long you were playing and what the screenshot interval was set to? I'm quoting him from the thread on /r/factorio, as I asked t...

I just saw it on reddit. Looks pretty neat

Align wrote:Nice. Now the only question is, where can I upload a 300 MB animated PNG...?

It's probably better to create a video out of all these screenshots.
Nevertheless you could try gfycat, I'm not quite sure what the size limit is, but as far as I know it is pretty big
