Factory Must Grow

Welcome to Factory Must Grow—a meticulously crafted modpack where the raw power of engineering meets the beauty of a living, breathing world. Rather than a chaotic jumble of mods, you will find a carefully balanced progression system. Every mechanic has its unique place, and automation is not just the end goal, but a fascinating journey.

Core Gameplay Pillars

Create Dominance: The heart of the pack is mechanical engineering, expanded by over 20 add-ons. Automate resource processing and food production early on, while massive diesel generators and advanced power grids are strictly reserved for later stages.

Complex Agriculture: A simple farm won't be enough. Shifting seasons force you to plan your crops, and deep integration with Farmer's Delight allows you to build a massive, fully automated food industry.

Balanced Progression: Advanced technologies like Mekanism and Applied Energistics 2 are highly rewarding mid-to-late-game milestones. They require massive infrastructural investments and are specifically tweaked so they don't bypass early, creative engineering solutions.

Seamless Integration: Thanks to custom scripts and quests, modifications blend together flawlessly. Ore duplicates are eliminated, and unique custom recipes force a logical, rewarding base expansion.

Exploration & Building

Epic World Generation: Lay down extensive railway networks across stunning, cohesive landscapes generated by the fusion of Terralith and Tectonic, then explore completely overhauled Nether and End dimensions.

Factory Architecture: Utilize an enormous palette of decorative blocks, including the Macaw's series and FramedBlocks, ensuring your production halls look just as impressive as they operate.

Challenging Dungeons: Discover rarer, but significantly larger and more rewarding structures that provide a genuine incentive to leave the safety of your factory walls.

Magic & Equipment: Unearth hidden artifacts and delve into the arcane arts with Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks, gaining unique advantages for your difficult expeditions.

Optimization & Convenience

Maximum Performance: A rigorously selected suite of dozens of performance mods ensures smooth gameplay, even when your sprawling factories are running at full capacity.

Multiplayer Friendly: Integrated FTB team management and chunk loading systems work perfectly alongside clear Xaero's maps, making cooperative server play a breeze.

Quality of Life: Dozens of minor tweaks and inventory management tools let you focus on what truly matters: endlessly expanding your factory.
