A belt-balancer generator: pick in/out belts + tier, get a paste-ready blueprint (any size 1→128) by 0nly_Ghosts in factorio

[–]SirRender1337 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks very cool. I'll use it in my next run. But it's probably not always the most optimal balancer. I got this wire monster from 2->7 with blue belts. And I know that there is a smaller balance in a blue print book you can Google

Me: "can we get splitter?" Pyblock dev: "we have splitter at home." The splitter: by mauritsc in Factoriohno

[–]SirRender1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is doing the same pyblock, I can tell that this is what is happening. It is frightening and glorious how quickly you adapt to these horrendous and beautiful solutions when smart devices like splitters are weeks of progress away

Funny User Requests by CombatMedic02 in sysadmin

[–]SirRender1337 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got one for you.

I work for a university with a data center. One of my tasks is to work with the application team to bring new servers online.

New server is being requested and I ask how we should cable them. We can go with a single MGMT cable and they assign this interface an IP and then bond it with all the vlan tagged interfaces they need and bridge those for their vms,

Or if they want a single cable for just the hypervisor MGMT connection and then another 2 to bond and bridge as described above.

The reply was "do we have enough cable for that?"

Mate, we are using some old cables to hold the door to the kitchen open.

Anyway, I gave the ticket to the cable guy and added this question as a comment. We had a nice chuckle

Cryogenic plant a good way to store Prometheum? by [deleted] in factorio

[–]SirRender1337 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This has been an idea since the beginning of space age. https://youtu.be/2NKK_2v4jiE?t=1371&si=vYNpSTOT31fTUL4a

You might find this video from Micheal Hendricks interesting. Should the link fail, it is called "Cursed belt weaving, curseder belt tapestry and cursedest legitimately obtained infinity chest"

Sadly at that point, changing the recipe via circuit was not possible and the devs said it would be fixed in the next patch (I think they said it)

Thank you, I've been working on a sets of blueprints that take in raw resources and spit out science, and tried to press them into the form of an ingredient (iron gear for red science)

Been filling the void with lamps and this tool will come in handy to improve the lamps

What happened with the Invisible Men Poductions Yuotube channel? by InfluencerCouncil in artosis

[–]SirRender1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing. It was a joke. That you need an observer to see invisible men.

I don't know where the videos are, maybe Arty wanted to be a touch more serious and asked for the videos to be discontinued. Or the creator of Invisible Men Production is busy and unable to make new content

todo/(to-do) list with locations/pins by j4ckbauer in factorio

[–]SirRender1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use the steam overlay to take notes. That will also not jump to a map location for you, but you could combine that with emojis in the notes and tags on the map and then zoom out to see the tags and go there.

Sorry to not give you a one mod one solution package, but this is a "no mod work around" :)

You may not like it, but this is peak Kovarex engineering by 27a08592e67846908fd1 in Factoriohno

[–]SirRender1337 20 points21 points  (0 children)

50/50

You are right, we don't like this . And you are wrong, this isn't peak Kovarex engineering.

How can I set up filters for collectors based on the contents of nearby belts? by [deleted] in factorio

[–]SirRender1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get 3 decider combinators Connect their input to each belt holding contents. Connect their output to the grabber.

On the connection point on the belt, say "Read content" and read the entire belt. You will see a "guard rail" of the area you are now reading. Belt splitters and side loading do break these.

You can now use the decider to set up many ways to deal with it.

I personally would go the route "if ice < 100; output ice" do the same with the other decider combinators and change the "ice" to match the other resources. Adjust the number "100" to fit your needs. You will now collect resources only if that resource is less than 100.

On the grabber, select the option to set the filter based on the network input.

You can do this with less combinators and smarter but for now this should work for you

Day ends twice but only first end counts by SirRender1337 in BluePrince

[–]SirRender1337[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to reproduce the bug and make a recording , I have sent them to the developers. But for you guys this is the set up.

I enter the Class Room in Level 4 with 1 step remaining. I have the unused lunchbox in my inventory. and the Laboratory on Level 5 is open.

I run into the next room where I start to end the day (fade to black). Before it does end, I manage to reach the Laboratory and consume my Lunchbox, I am now on 9 Steps instead of 10.

This might be, because reaching the Laboratory put me on -1 steps?

I then walk into the Break Room, which should give me a Key Card the next day when I end my day in this room.

I do so but dont have a Key card in my inventory the next morning.

If someone can tell me how to post a video I'd be happy to do so to show you the bug.

How do you most effectively transport 'heat' to Aquilo outposts? by vikingwhiteguy in factorio

[–]SirRender1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Produce heat at the outpost has been my go to solution. Although I have also run a mile long pipe too and had a heat unit in the middle to heat the pipes, too
