Mods are common in Factorio. Players get to mod the game according to their own preferences, and we have seen some great mods in the game through the years.
Some of the mods in the game were almost perfect. Those could even be labelled as original parts of the game, and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
But all of those are just made by the game modders, the fans and players at home. Wonder how they do it?
Here are some of Factorio's best mods, and how you could actually mod the game yourself...

Their list includes the Long Reach mod, which allows players to widen their reach to interact with a structure. Another one is the Even Distribution mod which grants an equal distribution of resources upon dropping those on containers, And of course, the Bob's and Angel's modpacks are also listed, which provides 20 game-changing mods for various new items, features, mechanics, and concepts useful for the players.
There are also some highly useful mods, like the famous Bottleneck mod, which helps players to deal with bottlenecks in their factory by putting lights on every corner of your structure. And there's also the VehicleSnap that lets the player snap their car's direction on to regular angles.
