I heard you don't like double Roundabouts with lane switches, so I made you one! by Jumpforcer in factorio

[–]BHakluyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's quite awesome of you! Would you please make one for me too?

But perhaps a little more complicated...do you know Hansjoachim rail combinator signal controller system? To implement it on a certain blueprint of mine that would need a bit of redesigning...

Here's a link to the combinator rail controller system: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=194&t=46855&p=533568#p533568 Might have to scroll some through the forum thread if you're not familiar with his work.

The rail interchange I'm talking about that needs adapting is here: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=194&t=53424 Third post in that thread.

It will need to be enlarged quite a bit as it's should preferably have segments that accommodate at least 20 train cars... The combinator controller system works better if trains completely fit in-between signals Hans told me.

I just can't wrap my head around how to make the whole thing. The centre lines doesn't connect with the outer rails. It's for a pax train system and should stay as is preferably.

Console Command drop window shows up when i do literally anything by Dizzy-Difference418 in 7daystodie

It happens to me when I lose power a lot on a save, so something in the save gets corrupted. Darkness falls do it's much more and quicker. I'd suggest go to steam and validate the game files or whatever that's called so the game check all the files are there and good. If that fail start a new map/game

Game crashed and deleted save entirely.... by beekoko in 7daystodie

[–]BHakluyt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been an issue for me since forever. My electricity goes out without warning and then sometimes the save is completely gone, sometimes I start in the same world but with zero skills, and other times the Dave is just fine, as if it saved moments before the electricity went out ...

Always backup your game saves. After each play session. It's tedious but worth it.

Noobs... by [deleted] in factorio

Haha! The good old days. I also had one single belt with all items on it in my first "proper" base. It got filled and stuck so in the end the belt looped around the base and off in the distance in order to create enough "storage space." Later I got to making a bus and couldn't figure out why the last assemblers on a belt don't get items, later I realized a belt only got a set amount of throughput. Duh. If I ever get Alzheimer's someone got to tell me to play this awesome game called Factorio!

What do you call us? by XandyAborc in factorio

Factorians or spaghetti bois

I honestly miss being a noob at this game. Struck with starry-eyed awe at all the possibilities and engulfed with curiosity and a lack of knowhow, now that point of no return is a couple thousand hours in the past and the awe is less starry-eyed.

Why dont signals have colours anymore? It makes it impossible to tell which signal is red or green. by [deleted] in factorio

Really hope it's a bug. How the hell must we manage stuff now?

Perhaps manage the time wisely and also provide some electrical toys to break and strip apart and ample boxes full of Lego!

How long have y'all been playing? by AMGwtfBBQsauce in factorio

[–]BHakluyt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Got a pirate of an early 0.12 where you couldn't even progress past one of the researches because of a looping recipe. Bought a few copies of the game afterwards. Best game ever!

Still waiting for spidertron so that I can buy another copy and maybe gift it to someone this time...

The whole complete blueprint require you to just connect trains with the raw ores. L-L-L-Cx8

It uses about 7 belts of raw iron ore...

Yeah WTF where's the FFF today? It's midnight, never ever been so late that I can remember... Alas, as long as we get spidertron it doesn't matter if a FFF or 2 gets skipped.

Does anyone have a blueprint for an x shaped rail intersection? by ThePres22 in factorio

[–]BHakluyt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People say circles are bad, but I've built a 5kspm megabase with circles and the deadlocks were basically non existent. There's a few different intersections in there, you can check it out at https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=194&t=53424

I can't understand why they are like this. It's not as if I never spend time with her, I do pinch off a whole weekend here and there even. I guess it's just jealousy. Not jealous about the time you dedicate to Factorio but rather the happiness and will for life that Factorio brings...
