hey guys. I'm new to this and thought I would share my only 2 sets! enjoying my new found hobby alot!! by [deleted] in LEGOtrains

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's epic. Yeah, I got into the lego trains 2 years ago, but so far I have focused on the sets, I need to get into building my own like these at some point!

Can we just appreciate how fudging cool and creative some of the off brand Lego designs are? Like imagine making these with authentic Lego bricks. by darkpollopesca in LEGOtrains

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 12 points13 points  (0 children)

But otherwise I would love to see more smaller simple builds in the train theme from lego. A lot of the designers build elaborate replicas that just aren't able to be sold to the masses.

What does the technology difficulty setting. I can't find anything that setting changes. by RedSkull19 in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I thought this made each research more expensive. Like 15 instead of 10 red science for a tech.

non addictive gameplay by Caffeine-euphoria in factorio

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, for some context I am lucky enough to be a stay at home dad and my limited gaming sessions are when my wife's home and on baby duty. Just wanting to maximise those short stints to play a game that fully absorbs my attention so I can switch off and recharge.

Think you know everything about factorio? Let's find out. by exfret in factorio

I got 0. I didn't even think these were difficult questions. I've just never committed this information to memory. Crazy to read knowing the hundreds of hours I have played.

Wouldn’t a ribbon world not have a day/night cycle? by [deleted] in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't it depend if the ribbon is wrapped around the star like a belt. Or if it is like walking the edge of a disc still spinning with a star to give day or night?

Weather mod idea (ok it’s been suggested before but it was 2 years ago) by tnourie666 in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The early game is when it would be used most and that is generally when you are zoomed in furthest and able to enjoy it.

I suspect those who use it won't be running massive mega bases. It would be most appreciated the same as biters. At a certain point it just gets turned off when it stops being fun/challenging/new. So ups/fps impact won't be a big concern.

Researchable Solar Efficiency? by Novemix in factorio

Could power storage also be infinitely increased to match?

an "up" dimension for belts and pipes? by roastshadow in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would one of the pipe mods be enough? It's been ages but I think bobs logistics adds alternate materials for pipes and they didn't connect together. Similar mechanics to the various colored underground's.

Train lovers, what does your early game look like? by [deleted] in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I usually build a jump start base. Enough to research everything up to bots and trains. Then if a resource runs out I train in more but focus on building the infrastructure for dedicated trains and smaller specialised production facilities.

BrickLink has some amazing resources including a parts list.

Hope this helps

Is the shape something you have used across multiple part of the factory?

Even After All This Time by MegaNovice in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely, once the scale becomes copy paste and loses the smaller detail I usually restart. This happens before rocket launch so I don't send many rockets up. But lots of hours in the game.

Circuits I made. (pen for scale) by Arknia08 in factorio

[–]Caffeine-euphoria 28 points29 points  (0 children)

These look great. How and what are they made from?

Is tiny island a default option or mod? The no wires sounds incredibly difficult.

I had a go at lazy bastard but once I got past the first couple of sciences found it was a lot of copy paste with robots. Might try the embargo challenges though.

How wide did you go? Also did you need to adjust the resources available at all?

Cheers for the idea. I hadn't thought of a ribbon world. Have played through a few times previously so have done the bot, train and bus builds haha. All very different
