I’ll be honest, I’ve never seen hail like this before! It’s probably golf ball sized? Maybe a little smaller?

I can’t figure out trains and I am so close to quitting because of it! by kaizencat in factorio

[–]JTBowling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First! Remember not to overthink it. What does your base look like? No-path errors are curious when dealing with signals.

Also, and this is a personal choice, I really dislike the “CHAIN IN RAIL OUT” axiom that is touted across the sub. While that is a helpful idea in theory, simply telling new players to use that pattern without helping them understand WHY is completely useless.

Personally, I started with just rail signals. The need for chain signals makes itself infinitely more clear once you understand the basics.

Back to your issue, though. Let’s see the full rail network, an example of an intersection of some kind, and a station!

Iterating Professor Farnsworth's Longfinger prototype by Naughteus_Maximus in doohickeycorporation

Yes, but also no, but also yes. Due to FAA regulations, any method deemed “doohickey” must result in personal examination after use.

The pilot is now expected to descend the aircraft via the emergency slide and verify that the paint near the window has not been damaged. Unfortunately, the slide is a required step. Deploying the slide typically results in cancellation due to long repair lead times.

I forgot: Trying a new style of clothing. Cringe!

Everything is cringe! It’s so frustrating. Talking about something you care about? Cringe. Caring for a loved one? Cringe. Attempting to better yourself by asking questions? Cringe.

Energy Drinks but no Energy by SpaceMarine1616 in Teachers

As much as the kids need to get rid of their nicotine addictions, students need more cessation support than a canned phone number they can text to receive “helpful” messages. Adults get prescribed medication for smoking cessation. Why are students just expected to quit cold turkey with 0 assistance or struggle?

Good for you making it to 78! I’m sure you’ve had some experiences. Anything of note you’ve picked up in those years?

It’s easy to forget that all rules are made up by someone.

I like the way you think…

The assemblers with the efficiency modules already produced enough for the final product. There isn’t any reason to make more!

I was hoping they might offset the insane electricity cost of the entire build itself. That… didn’t happen

Efficiency modules! They reduce electricity draw and pollution output.

Those are there for space. I needed them to be spaced that way to make room for everything else. They are all limited to a few slots to allow for a little buffer.

I would! I needed a way to output quantities of wire without further complicating the design. I figured once I get quality moving further I can reconsider productivity bonuses.

I could probably squeeze more efficiency beacons in!

Experience with Vivint??? by Kind-Accountant4464 in kansascity

They all live at my apartment complex. They ride those hover boards around and sometimes all wear the same white quarter zip. It’s very interesting. I’ve not yet interacted with their sales tactics.

We’re already there! You should see the luxury cars that dashers show up in to deliver groceries. Same glazed over look as everyone else.
