Add creative mode

Add creative mode

I'd love to be able to load into an editor mode to try out different mechanics, layouts, and the like. A mode where you can instantly build, delete, repair, etc. Even better if the mode could crank up the game to like 20X speed to see it all play out.

Just digging the earth is something that fascinates me. Without worrying too much about the cost of manufacture and all the other costs in general except leaving the oil harvest

And/or ability to use already discovered research on RESTART.

I was going to suggest a Sandbox mode to test out different things but someone beat me to it.

There have been a few suggestions for a sandbox mode or a Creative mode. This one might be rolled in with those.

Yes, would be nice to have a creative mode so we can build and test different production layouts and see how we need to plan for future upgrades to production lines.

A Creative mode for Learning and Experimentation :)

On steam in the Mods subforum, there is a thread about a mod that does most of this. Except maybe for the last item.

Sandbox is typically a game or mode that lets you do whatever you want in the game without the regular restrictions of a game. No resource gathering, no unlocking things(or unlocking things for free

To clarify my merged comment above, the Captain of Cheats mod is all you need for a Creative or Sandbox mode.
It is already here!

Agreed. A sandbox mode would help peeps like me learn the game. Like can you place different types of dirt and rock on the same conveyor and sort it later. What's the throughput...

A Creative mode would be extremely helpful, just to help plan automation and builds, would love to see this added to the game!

game is so good, but i cant plan any automation or buildings without messing with my already made industry...
