This is a smart mod manager for factorio. It will allow you to create modpacks and later launch factorio with the mods of those modpacks with a single click.
An incomplete list of features. Features marked with a * are only available in the indev version.
-
Modpacks
Define multiple modpacks and switch between them with a single click.
-
Dependency resolving
*If you have a modpack and you didn't include all the dependencies in the modpack, this application will try to solve that problem.
-
Savegames
*You can select any save game from the
Savestab and hit Play. This will install all the mods that are listed as required in this save. -
Download mods
*If you want to download a mod from factoriomods.com, you can do so by clicking on the
Install with FMMbutton on that website. This will download the mod and store it under theModstab. All other websites are welcome to implement thefactoriomodsURI scheme

Factorio version management
You'll be able to define more than one factorio version. Dependency resolving will then automatically determine the correct factorio version for each modpack.
-
Automatic updates
Keep your mods and factorio up to date.
-
Server browser
Add all your favorite servers to a list and have Smart Mod Inserter figure out which mods they use. Then it will install all those mods and launch factorio with a flag to directly connect to that server.
To download, head over to the releases page. From there, select a release and download the appropriate file.
The .jar files are recommended for everyone, however, for OS X users there will be special .app bundles available starting with version 0.3. Additionally to the benefit of having an app-bundle, it will allow you to click the Install links on factoriomods.com.
To run, you need the Java Runtime Environment with version 8 u 40 or higher. Windows users should vary as to not install any unwanted 3rd party software along with Java. To fully prevent installing Ask-Toolbar and the like, usage of this ninite installer package is recommended.
If you have Java installed, simply opening the .jar or .app is enough to launch Smart Mod Inserter.
JavaFX is required and may not be installed by default. On Ubuntu, you can fix this by installing these packages:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre openjfx libopenjfx-java
Upon first launching Smart Mod Inserter, it will probably ask you to define the factorio application path and the data path. On some setups, it will automatically be able to figure out some of those paths. Until you have all necessary paths selected, the close button will stay disabled.
After all paths have been defined, Smart Mod Inserter will move all mods found in <datadir>/mods/ to <datadir>/fmm/mods/ and create a modpack titled Default containing those mods. You can edit the name if you want.
If you put mods into the <datadir>/mods/ folder after that, they will also be moved to <datadir>/fmm/mods/, if they don't already exist in that folder.
To compile, you need at least JDK 1.8_40 and maven.
After executing
mvn clean package
from the command line, you'll have a .jar file in the target/ directory.
A special build plugin is configured to create an OS X .app bundle. To create this, use maven with the appbundle:bundle goal.
