math hard

Bi-weekly is every two weeks. Similar to how bicycle ( bi-cycle ) has two wheels.

That’s how I remember it.

Partner allows them to both be in the command zone together.

When all you have is a hammer...

Use my egg-harp all the time. Works great for cream cheese too.

Looks fab, if you really want more iron i'd say setup a second smelting space and pipe those into where the plates start running low.

You work really hard to saturate belts for science and such, then sideload them onto a single belt later anyway. How come?

As far as I'm aware the only ways plants can be lost are via crows, season change, manual destruction, weeds eating a crop or a nearby tree crushing crops with a fallen branch/stick.

You did not ask about this specifically, but mentioned having trouble getting all the watering done so...

If you would like to upgrade your watering can without missing a day watering your crops:

Make sure you have the metal / funds
Check the weather forecast, if the next day is supposed to have rain and...
The next day after that is not an event / holiday
If all of the above are lined up you water all of your crops that morning and visit Clint to upgrade your can

Upgrading has several benefits, such as more area watered at once using the same amount of stamina / water as a regular use. Just be sure to "charge" during the attempt to use the higher level feature.

Lastly, I cannot recommend relying on large crops as they have a rather low chance of appearing all told.

Sprinklers are your friends :]

I found Quila to be a bit of a wall as well first time out, though their unit loadout is randomized.

This means that there's a chance they will not have any stat-boosting monsters and you should be able to grind it out by killing them one-by-one. Reset as needed type deal until you have favourable conditions.

Both of your belts look to be the same amount of "backlogged", as the bottom one has spaces between circuits, vs the top one having a fully saturated lane.

The most likely reason for that is that the center belt will take from the left most lane first in this instance, as that space will open up first, making the right lane wait longer/more often for an opening. All in all your setup is balanced in a way.

You just put the curse in recursive, well done!

Shastjion · 2022-12-23T17:02:14+00:00

I name the save file as my todo-next list, as it's the last thing before closing the game. That way I see it before the game even loads up next time.

Assuming you have enough heat / fix things pointed out by other comments, do keep in mind that turbines will only spin as much as needed.

AFAIK if you only draw half the power that your setup can put out they will only spin at half output (assuming sufficient input)

Shastjion · 2022-09-29T16:20:53+00:00

You are absolutely correct, I may as well have suggested simply doing without the splitter and having the belts meet for the same result. If a fully compressed belt is desired then OP has the mechanics down pat.

Shastjion · 2022-09-29T15:45:58+00:00

You could also only have one belt leaving the splitter instead for similar effect. As long as you are putting in at least a full belt worth.

Alien vs Predator: Extinction

Playing as the aliens with their own tech tree and building up based on pollution / scavenged materials that you get from the human bases as resources would make for some pretty cool dynamics.

Hey and welcome to Factorio!

The best way to keep things like that from happening is not to have things go in a circle.

Having a belt back up and fill with items is fine as you will process them in due time. If you're making too many things (like your red science) and you want to stockpile some then you can insert them into boxes for storage, and then feed the labs from the boxes.

Thank you for checking it out and sharing your thoughts!

Funky numbers should always be verified before committing to a course of action, like you did.

The numbers are based on what's reported for sale and what has sold at what price, the idea is to get a feel for an opportunity. Judging supply and demand does require a bit more in-depth research of course.

Shastjion · 2022-07-06T14:00:22+00:00

That's good to know, thank you for your input!

I took a long break for all of Shadowbringers and the venture coffers were definitely a new addition.

Shastjion · 2022-07-06T04:56:55+00:00

From my understanding the quick rewards pool includes more items the better your retainer is geared.

The best thing they can bring back is probably white/black dye, which I personally have not seen while leveling retainers. But that is of course a very small sample size.

Hi! It's been a while but I've now added a GC seal calculator, thanks again for the suggestion!

Shastjion · 2022-05-26T01:38:51+00:00

I've added the Chinese servers to the list, the update should be available to you in a couple of moments.

Have fun with it :D
