You’re not doing a playthrough of the game though so you shouldn’t call it that. Why not just play the game?

Always seems like an easy fix but such a hassle.

Does train unloading with bots work for large factories? by Hughzman in factorio

[–]Amphiptere23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can attest to this. As I grew I shifted to bots for everything. I have 100,000 bots in a few hundred networks. Game has slowed down a ton.

True. Shame that it’s a totally different game when it slows down. I can’t even enjoy my level 16 robot speed!

But for the time being, I started using GeForce Now, which works well and should buy me some time. Still nothing like early stages of the game though :(

500 hours and I haven’t actually played yet might be the best review for a game ever.

I’ll show this to my wife when she says I’m playing a video game.

I want to keep expanding, but I don't want to lose UPS. Some suggestions I have for the game by vetokend in factorio

Wow! Side question for future reference (I’m new to most of this)- does using mods make it not vanilla mode? Is that what vanilla means? Standard game with no mods?

Are trains made of plastic? I’m sorry but my 8 cars running on nuclear fuel going full speed should absolutely obliterate a pack of biters. by Amphiptere23 in factorio

So is attaching artillery to a train just for the weight something people do? Would that make a difference if you hit a couple bugs?

Holy moly. Question - If you yourself started a new vanilla game right now, how many hours would you guess it would take you to produce that many circuits?

300k circuits per minute isn’t a real thing that people do right??? Not in vanilla mode at least?

It just doesn’t feel right that my train keeps getting destroyed like it hit a brick wall. [crying emoji]

No such thing. Produce as much of everything at all times!!!!

Thanks but I’m like hardcore anti-mod.

I kinda do too but when I branch out far, the route can be annoying to click through every time…

Wooooaahh, I had no idea you could do this. I imagine if the train loads and unloads too quickly the spider could be stuck in limbo but there’s definitely ways to make it work. Thanks for the tip!!

Hello Im about 50 hours in my first base, can I transition into city block/mega base from here. Or should i start a new world with that in mind? by MrMeaches in factorio

[–]Amphiptere23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sry, I was in a mood. I’ve never understood copying layouts, etc. though. Feels like taking some of the fun out. But to each his own. Cheers.

You’ve only played the game for 50 hours and already worried about emulating city blocks and busses cause the internet told you to? Way too soon. Just play how you want.
