How It Should Have Started

Jump straight to building your base with speedy construction bots! Super handy for those times when you have all the initial stuff planned out and don't want to spend time chopping down trees. Adds custom construction bots, roboport and exoskeletons to the player when they join the game. These are equivalent to top tier equipment but cannot be built and will disappear when you research the upper tiers of these technologies. Grants construction research by default to allow ghosts from the start.

Frequently asked

What licence is How It Should Have Started under?

mit, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.

How do I install How It Should Have Started?

Install the matching loader first, then put the downloaded file in your mods folder and start the game. The loader, the framework and Factorio all have to be on the same version, which is the usual reason a mod does not appear in game.

Where do I download How It Should Have Started safely?

From the author's own page on Factorio Mod Portal, which is where the data here is synced from. IndexGG never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.

Which Factorio versions does How It Should Have Started work on?

The author has not declared a supported version in the metadata we sync, so there is nothing here we can state as fact. Check the project's own page before installing it, and treat an old framework with no declared version as untested on modern Factorio.

Last checked 1 mo ago against Factorio Mod Portal. We do not host files and we do not republish descriptions; every download link points at the author’s own release.
