Factorio Inserter Clock Creator (“ficc”)

Generates factorio blueprints for inserter clocks. Automates an algorithm from this video guide by KnightElite.

Installation

pip install ficc

Usage

$ ficc --help
usage: ficc [-h] --rate RATE [--stack STACK]

Generates factorio blueprints for inserter clocks.

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --rate RATE, -r RATE  Count of items to be carried per second (float) (default: None)
  --stack STACK, -s STACK
                        The item or inserter stack size, whichever is lower (default: 12)

Calculate how many items per second you need your inserter to move. (A tool like Rate Calculator mod or Factorio Lab is recommended.) Pass that value to the --rate argument. For example, iron plates (as shown in the video guide):

$ python3 -m ficc --rate '5.025'

If you don’t have full stack size research or your recipe has a limited stack size, you will need to account for that. For example, if you wanted to clock unloading Rocket Fuel out of a fully moduled and beaconed Assembler 3:

$ python3 -m ficc --rate '0.4' --stack 10
