1. Is there already a bob's mods wiki in development, or would I have to create one? 2. The one thing I think should definitely be included in the mod description is a picture of the key elements, because there are multiple things called "wood" in the game. Without being in game, I'm not ...

I must admit it is a bit long winded. Linking to mods.factorio.com/mods/bobingabout is probably sufficient for a mods list, as it should list everything I've published, or to my "mods" forum page. Adding an addition link to the 3rd party but official boblocale mod would be the only one I'...

I like your thoughts In the same spirit, not aski...

Other than tools there is another thing that uses up over time: Fuel. So why not make an end stage mining drill that burns fuel and restrict the fuel to mining drill head. Possible?
