Summary
Peaceful mode in Factorio is a difficulty setting that minimizes combat challenges, making the game more focused on automation and resource management. In this mode, enemy bases are less aggressive, and players won't face constant attacks, allowing them to concentrate on building and expanding their factories. It's an excellent choice for players who prefer a more relaxed gaming experience or want to focus on the game's intricate logistics and automation aspects rather than combat.
| Note | Peaceful mode does not completely remove enemies. Enemies will still spawn but will only attack when provoked by the player. |
| Note | Already existing biters are not affected by the mode change. |
