Modulus Feedback & Suggestions
🛠️ Modulus Community Feedback Hub
Welcome to the Modulus Feedback Hub, your space to share ideas, offer suggestions, and help shape the future of the game.
Whether you're diving into the public demo or testing our in-development build, we want to hear from you.
✅ What to Do:
- Search first – If your suggestion or issue already exists, upvote and comment instead of making a new post.
- Be specific – Clear, focused feedback is more helpful. Add examples if you can.
- Stay constructive – Honest feedback is essential, but respectful communication helps everyone.
- Tag your post – All submissions must include a topic tag (e.g. UX/UI, Balancing, Bugs, Suggestions).
- Playtesters only: If you're leaving feedback based on the Early Access playtest build, please also add the playtester tag so we can track it separately.
🗂️ How This Works:
- Similar posts will be grouped or merged to keep things tidy.
- The most upvoted suggestions rise to the top, so show support for the ideas you like!
- Our dev team may occasionally add tags like Under Review, Planned, or Completed with responses.

Tech Tree Redesign (WIth Suggested Look)
The current tech tree is very chaotic and needs fixing if it's to be usable. The levels you need to unlock are not vertically consistent, and some chains are just ...
3-way Splitters
My proposal is a 3-way Splitter similar to those in Satisfactory. These would be a 1x1 buildable, capable of dividing inputs evenly across any number of connected ...
Add glass mechanics
Suggestion: "Crystallization" mechanic — an analog of casting for creating solid modules
This mechanic allows players to create unique, indivisible blocks ...
Merger and Priority Merger
The game seems to be missing a way to merge Items other than to just input them to an existing belt.
I propose that the following be created:
- a Merger that can ...
Increase crane capacity in Tech Tree
The limit of 15 p/m with a crane is not inline with the upgrade to 120p/m or even 240p/m speed. That means we need to place more buildings and harvester pads. Just ...
Queue for tech tree (up to 5)
It's simple as in the title. Having the possibility to queue some research/tech tree is something that an automation game should have. So the player can focus more on ...
Tech tree UI could be improved
There is lots of free space in the tech tree and the overall structure could be improved upon. It's hard to get a good overview and lots of scrolling is involved. I ...
2-dimensional Advanced Cutter - cutters rework
In my playthrough I only used advanced cutter to cut 12x12x12 blocks, never once for ability to split on any 1-d axis. Splitting on any axis, would require pairing ...
Ignore Invalid Shapes Machine Option (Toggle)
Because conveyors sometimes combine when trying to place them near each other, modules sometimes end up on existing lines they are not meant for. To correct this, you ...
Arrows on the tech tree
Various techs on the tech tree are dependent on others unlocking first. Currently they're just lines connecting one to the other, so what I'd like to see is little ...
Logic circuits in the game
Insert logic circuits into the game in the style of Factorio, for example, activating or deactivating dividers based on the number of items in a warehouse.
Half of doubling techs feel useless
"I’ve been analyzing the tech tree and noticed a missed opportunity for true optimization. Initially, I hoped new tech would allow me to reduce the number of ...
Packaging operator
This could effectively replace the existing freighter cargo upgrades, but add some additional challenge to logistics.
Instead of delivering item(s) to a hub and the ...
Need to have a Global science production and consumption rate counter
Its not easy as my savefile exceeds 50 hours to quickly ascertain how much of a certain science I am producing per minute, especially given the interdependencies of ...
Filter
If you have just cut a 4x4 down to a 3x4, and because of that you have a 1x4 that is left over. It would be usefull if the 1x4 could be sorted away and be sent on the ...
tech tree
There isnt a space for the levels in the tech tree. (e.x. Miner Speed Lvl2) it would be nice if it was more like Miner Speed Lvl 2
Advanced Machines
# Problem:
There are very nice strategies you learn in the early game that don't scale to the lategame. therefore the lategame doesn't provide as much new ...
Vertical Belt Lifters and the ability to build on top of cliffs
I propose the ability to be able to lift items up and down on cliffs and then transport them there before bringing them down.
It would be a nice mid to late game ...
Adding more sound / visual effect to progression
First one is that I found myself not even noticing that I rank up or get some progression on challenges/ranking and etc. It does not have any satisfying sound that ...
Visual Tunnel Lenght
The suggestion is more of a way to visualize the length of the underground belts block as a way to tell about if it got changed to tell if it fit for users who don't ...
Displaying platforms shouldn't spoil progression
It's cool that you cannot see all the tech tree etc from the beginning, starting from the idea of only monochrome and blue/yellow stuff. But displaying platforms ...
Unlock Efficiency View earlier
The Efficiency View is very useful for making your factory optimized. It should either be unlocked immediately or during the tutorial. Its usage should also be ...
Increase Pigment production
When I feed the Pigment factories with 50p/m it doesn't increase to 50 outcome. Also there isn't any possibility to increase this production through the Tech tree. I ...
Tech Tree Hotkey (T)
Maybe its just the Factorio player in me but I keep hitting T to open the tech tree and it doesn't.... would be nice to have and pretty easy to implement. Also could ...
Power instead of oil for large buildings?
Maybe i haven't progressed far enough, but seems there is no power, which i love. But just a thought to be able to use those solar and wind turbines as power to juice ...
High Level world modification
At later tiers have the ability to fill in water areas?
I am not there yet but I keep finiding myself caught trying to get belts to miners but there is no more ...
Skyline tech tree upgrade doesn't display number
"Skylines can transport items across islands"
It should state that you can currently only place 2 skylines.
(I think 2 is the first upgrade?)
