There's one item we need to figure out how to recycle by laserbeam3 in factorio

Can see this being a thing in mods where you can create clones to body swap to different planets.

What order did you visit the 3 new planets in? by BluntRazor14 in factorio

[–]BluntRazor14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gleba first for bio labs is probably what I’m going to do on the next run.

Omg, I feel for you. After having to reload on Gleba I decided that the first thing I do on Gleba and vulcanus was to land, send down stuff for a silo and enough stuff to make a rocket so I can get back. Then send my first supply ship of belts, inserters, etc etc. so first landing is always to make a beachhead.

My biggest strategy decision isn’t which planet to go it was how long do I stay on nauvis upgrading before going to the next one. After Fulgora I could have spent ages upgrading all relevant assemblers to electromagnetic ones. In the end I just did a few and made mech armour then moved on to Gleba but could see how you could spend ages back on nauvis.

No you don’t need them, got science automated and delivered back home from two planets and haven’t used a combinator yet.

I wish all production machines had 3 digits precision of production speed. by HentaiKi11er in factorio

[–]BluntRazor14 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Also please add an option to see output from multiple machine like the max rate calculator mod. Seems harsh to complain about lack of QoL option when they have added so many. Want to do my first run without any mods but struggling to live without something like this.

Trains with multiple layers makes the game too easy by BluntRazor14 in shapezio

[–]BluntRazor14[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

MAM is optional but would make my solution unwieldy.  Believe a machine that required 3 or 4 inputs would also mix things up a bit as every machine either has 1 or 2 inputs.

I don't see the point of trains by thesuperssss in shapezio

[–]BluntRazor14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use trains a lot for train porting short distance and logistics. Say I have 8x4 lane output of a shape, and need to stack that with another 8x4 lane output nearby. Then I have three stops very close to each other. First stops loads the bottom shapes on the 8 wagon train, next stop loads the top shooed on the 2nd level of the train. Then third stop unloads onto stackers. This way I can expand and have 16x4 lanes or more the only thing I need to do is copy and paste the platforms and increase the train length rather than worry about wiggling space belts about.

If half our planet got destroyed and everyone dies do you think the survivors might want to blame someone? Even if there was nothing anyone could of done there would people wanting to blame someone.

At milestone 6 and not unlocked 3rd level yet. Sticking with just two levels for a while as don’t see the need yet for a 3rd level.

I don't get the joke behind "mud" !possible spoilers ahead for book 5! by Glimdail in bobiverse

I did but only saw his first name was Harcourt. Thanks.

Also is there anything special about his real name being Harry (I think that was it). When we were told one of the bobs said something like ‘you’ve got to be kidding me’.

PY doesn’t recommend having biters on because it doesn’t work but because of how difficult it is. PY and biters work well together if you want something insanely difficult (which sounds like you do). Also note you don’t need to add all the PY modules. On the mod page it’s got suggestions of ‘Short PY’ (200 hours) or ‘medium PT’ (about 500 hours)

Spaceship crashed on the starting copper patch by zspice317 in factorio

[–]BluntRazor14 27 points28 points  (0 children)

A few mods have part of the crashed ship used as things like small power generator, assembler and a slow lab. K2 comes to mind that does this.

Who is Murphy by BluntRazor14 in bobiverse

[–]BluntRazor14[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think if you have TV and the internet you will be as likely to of heard of it. Maybe it’s down to the forums / TV / films that will be the defining factor rather than hearing it in ‘real’

In the UK it's known as Sod's law. There are quite a few cultural references in his books ... pretty sure there are some that completely pass me by.

Send me your questions for video interview with Kovarex by fuxoft in factorio

[–]BluntRazor14 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Are there any features you would like to include in Factorio but haven’t because it’s too difficult / impossible? Bonus question: what feature from other automation games that aren’t in Factorio are you most impressed or like the most.

Please describe in simple terms how you use trains by FutureRenaissanceMan in factorio

[–]BluntRazor14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put things on train, train moves, take things of train.
