LED Display Panels

LED Display Panels on Your Factorio Server

LED Display Panels by Avona adds a display panel variant with an icon more than twice the size of the base panel, nearly filling the whole tile. Line up several of them and you get large, easy-to-read display walls — perfect for status dashboards or wayfinding signage on sprawling bases shared by multiple players.

Setup on your rented server works just like any other mod: drop the zip into the mods/ folder and enable it via mod-list.json. Because your server automatically syncs mods to every client on connect, all your teammates see the oversized panels the instant they join.

Tip: Use the larger panels to build connected displays, such as an overview board at your factory's central distribution hub.

Plan the rollout and operation

LED Display Panels work well at stations, central storage, and production dashboards when the team shares a visual language. Design one small panel with clear colours and signals first and check readability at several zoom levels. Very large walls can create unnecessary circuit updates, so watch UPS and network synchronization before distributing displays throughout the factory.

For rollout, copy the save, mod-list.json, mod-settings.dat, and current mods directory. Enable the new zip on a server copy first and let Factorio validate dependencies and version ranges during boot. Connect at least two clients, use the core feature, save under a new name, and load that save again. Watch the server log, UPS, and synchronization in a realistic factory rather than only on an empty map. For updates, record the game, mod, and dependency versions together and change one package per test run. Content or recipe mods can leave saved entities and production chains behind, so do not remove them directly from the live world. On a copy, replace recipes, filters, and buildings before deleting the file. The original save then remains a reliable rollback. Also document the tested mod order so teammates and later maintenance windows always begin from the same reproducible combination.
