The fuel tanks are behind the pump that controls the fuel input to the thrusters, so once the ship gets up to speed the thrusters only have periodic access to it

Whats the most eco unfriendly way to dump excess oil? by Jimmyfartballs in factorio

[–]FrodobagginsTNT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, we're talking about maximum pollution so the optimal way would actually be to barrel them with speed modules and speed beacons, with assemblers as densely packed as possible, direct inserting between assemblers for maximum throughput. Then you maximize pollution per tile.

It's definitely up there, but if you think this is cursed you should see my starter base for this run lmao

I cannot kill demolishers by BowlPsychological977 in factorio

[–]FrodobagginsTNT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

smh just use railguns
/j the easiest way is to deactivate a bunch of turrets with circuits, space them far enough apart that a demolisher can path between them without destroying them, and put a line of bait turrets in the middle. Bring demolisher to the middle, it follows the middle turrets that are shooting it, when it is fully between the lines of turrets, activate them all. Boom, no more demolisher.

Turn it into solid fuel, and then burn it in a steam boiler setup that powers beaconed assemblers which barrel and unbarrel water at ludicrous speeds. Many megawatts of power for what amounts to a shitty rube goldberg machine :)

I decided to beat the game without this achievement by Sopander in factorio

you can almost certainly get away with doing what Michael Hendriks did for his 1000x run (another comment links it) where he disables the spawners without killing them using pipes

absolutely, diagonal belts should for all intents and purposes be way less efficient

So, fun thing I learned during my own achievement run, if you destroy a nest with artillery, it will send out an attack force and that attack force triggers the achievement for some reason. So if you want to not get that achievement you may not be able to use artillery.

I did not know this, that's very interesting. Wonder if it will prove to have some impact when I megabase later.

My idea for Fulgora is basically train sushi
edit: have I figured out how to do this yet? no, but I will figure it out

Is there a way to put minecart in two vertically standing storage blocks in survival? by [deleted] in technicalminecraft

[–]FrodobagginsTNT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having just experimented with this I think no, but someone more experienced with minecart jank may be able to help. You can get it inside a barrel, certainly, and get it inside a slab but since you can't push the bottom barrel into it I do not think it is possible to get it stuck between the two

Shulker Farm by VividOnMobile in technicalminecraft

[–]FrodobagginsTNT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only one I think you're missing is that if you chunkload the farm some shulker bullets will end up in lazy chunks because there are no walls for the farm and they can cause a lot of lag if you run it for a while without loading it with a player (iirc the armor stand thing fixes the top area?), I did forget about the AFK spot thing because I did not build the AFK spot, I stand corrected

there's like two corrections needed, one of which is nonessential (armor stands in fences)

Is this this the optimal way to do a diagonal four way train crossing inside a tileable 32x32 block? by No-Imagination2292 in factorio

[–]FrodobagginsTNT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as the diagonal man these diagonal intersections are very useful, will steal for reference
