Whats a high tier engineer to a low tier gooner?
Simple EDI integration mod. There are 3 funscripts. Filler, hurt and death. Pretty self explanatory.

Installation instructions:

  1. Download the integration mod from the link above.
  2. In the file you will see: 4 files and 1 folder. Extract mapping.json, EdiConfig.json, edi_forwarder.py and Gallery into the same folder where your factorio executable is (depends where you installed Factorio but after you find that folder it usually is Factorio → bin → x64).
  3. You will have 1 more file and that is player-tracker_0.1.0.zip which you will need to copy to your mod folder (usually C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods)
  4. After all of that your folders should look like this:
  5. Now we need to install python: Download Python | Python.org , follow the instructions on the website.
  6. After you install python, open cmd (win + r and type cmd) and do pip install requests . This will install the required package for the edi forwarder to work.
  7. Then in cmd you have to go to the directory where edi_forwarder.py is located. You will do cd and then the desired directory. (In my case it would be CD D:\Factorio\bin\x64)
  8. After that you run the command python edi_forwarder.py --config mapping.json which will start the EDI forwarder.
  9. Open EDI and use the EdiConfig supplied in the same directory.
  10. Start the game and proceed to goon while expanding your factory.

FAQ

Why not send the HTTP post directly to EDI?

Factorio blocks any requests to the outside for some reason.

Why does this exist?

I do not know. I was high, so i decided to make this, vibe coded it in 2 hours.

Can you help me with a bug?

Maybe, ask in the comments

Will this work on my OS?
