Train Colors Factorio

I finally took the time to update my spreadsheet with updated RGB color codes for Factorio 2.0, so feel free to use them if you wish. Not perfect, but it works when trains need to change colors. Item colors are based on their icons, while fluid colors are based on their appearance in pipes, storage tanks, and barrels.

If a train's inventory contains multiple entities, their colors will be blended proportionally to the quantity† of each entity present. Thanks to Xterminator for the Mod Spotlight video!

I *really* like color-coordinating my trains. So here's a station and train color index for common resources! This mod makes automated trains (NOT manual trains) automatically color themselves whenever they start moving on a path with an appropriate color based on the resource they're carrying.

If a train is carrying more than one type of resource the color will blend appropriately (e.g. iron is blue, copper is red- carrying 50% iron and 50% copper will make the train purple). The wiki cheatsheet has a list of suggested train colors for their cargo.

I usually just play with the sliders until I get a color I like and paint all the trains carrying that thing that color. There was a mod that colored trains automatically based on their cargo a few versions ago. Colors all train wagons, not only locomotives, based on the destination train stop.

Works with cybersyn. Dominant color of a particular item: For trains that supply a modular production cell. A train that carries resources for use in red circuit production is red (even though it carries green, plastic and copper).

Compatibility I am open to submission of new or better colors. I'd like to make a UI to let players set colors for their own games, but I don't have time. Changelog (Formerly called Train Ore Colors) 1.2: Update for Factorio 1.1, support for fluid wagons/artillery/manual trains, support Krastorio 2, support coloring train stops and inbound trains.

If you set the color of your locomotive, you can shift+right click (The same as copying an assembler recipe) and ahift+left click on the train station (Or even the locomotive at the other end of the train) and it will copy the color.
