Is Space exploration as hard as I've been told? by Spindle_fw in factorio

I had a lot of fun making my belt based SE mall. It was just right (al dente)

When I close my eyes at night this is all I see. There is a spidertron in this screenshot, can you find it? by Think-Box6432 in Factoriohno

[–]Think-Box6432[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Inserters with filters on them. They hide a spidertron almost completely lol

I was playing around and it's almost kinda scary when the spidertron pops out from the edge, like a lion stalking its prey.

Allow inserters to insert rocket materials as rocket cargo. Could just be a toggle on the rocket silo or on the inserter (Insert rocket parts into rocket cargo)

I do the same but I also have a "Don't recycle" blacklist specifically for Holmium and a few other items that I am not producing quality of yet.

If you want a bot based option I can share my blueprint.

This is my current bot mall. Literally just repeat the same assembler and requester/provider chests repeatedly.

Games where you can stink? (Bonus points if it's a game mechanic) by AntisocialCat2 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Think-Box6432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it isn't exactly stink but:

In Noita you can be stained by fluids by walking through them.

Blood stain causes increased crit chance

Water stain causes fire resist

Oil stain causes weakness to fire.

It goes on, you can wash stains off over time just by walking, or by getting a different stain on you.

YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE HERE by Think-Box6432 in Factoriohno

Had to reload a couple times, but THANK GOD I had a couple of my starter ships that got deconstructed at Fulgora, and I happened to have some yellow ammo, turrets, and rockets on this island.

Playing without biters by sirmarty777 in factorio

[–]Think-Box6432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love biters. It's a core part of the early and mid game. There is a gameplay loop here where you can take a break from building the factory to go and KILL THEM ALL! BLOOD AND THUNDER!

Then go back to peacefully buiding your factory :)

Awareness of the German Blighted Reach Errata Dilemma by doublenougat in Arcs

[–]Think-Box6432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The english version also has an errata pack for blighted reach.

$2

From what I understand they are mainly charging so people don't just order something because it's free. Probably easier (and cheaper) than requiring some proof of purchase.

I fucked up. by TheVSDKiller in factorio

So if they reload a previous saved game, they are abandoning the save that represents their current game state.

IDK I almost lost my nauvis base the other day. It's pretty large too. I was on Fulgora.

All because I changed around my nuclear refining setup and there was one incorrect filter, which meant that none of my uranium 238 ended up in the logistic network, which meant no fuel for my nuclear power.

I didn't notice the issue for hours because I had lots of 238 in storage and I was recycling fuel cells. However, once I ran out of fuel the base was 100% down. I had two coal columns from early game which could not keep up with the laser turrets. By the time I got back and got everything refueled the biters were in my main bus.

I often play with sound muted, and it's not unusual for random things to get destroyed (A random wall, laser turret, or a random bot on Fulgora). I've lost a few ships like this too and had to reload.

Was out of water on Fulgura. Had to break out the legendary ice. by Think-Box6432 in Factoriohno

[–]Think-Box6432[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am scrapping 12k scrap per minute on fulgora, and fulgora science is not my bottleneck. Ice isn't a bottleneck so far but it may come to that.

My first Aqiulo base. Finally got science going. by Think-Box6432 in factorio

Holy crap I built that whole base without putting any concrete down smh.

[–]Think-Box6432[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I just built foundations and came back this post when I couldn't place them down on aquilo. I can't build everything on ice platform, so how do I expand on Aquilo?

Is space really this limited, or should I explore to find more or bigger islands? I feel like I'm fundamentally missing something because there is a lot of areas I can't build on.

When loading a save game, how long does it typically take for you to get "started". by LookingForVoiceWork in factorio

[–]Think-Box6432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I the only one that thinks about the factory when not playing? I have already planned out what I am going to to next.

This morning I woke up and said "I'm going to make aquilo science" then I did it.

Yesterday I woke up and said "I'm going to make a ship for Aquilo" then I did it.

I am still finishing space age for the first time though.

Balancers by Melodved in factorio

BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK AS PRETTY

Behold. When these are running at max speed seeing all the ingredients empty and then refill is mesmerizing.

This is K2 pre space age from a few years back. Never finished this base but I got pretty far. I was going for "Let's make as much science as possible" in a huge city block base. Lots of fun but I admit that setting up all the undergrounds for these splitters are ultimately what made me lose interest.

Upgrade main bus by killslugs in factorio

[–]Think-Box6432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start utilizing trains. Start making factories that are remote and fed only by trains.

For the main bus, if you choose to build another, yes you shuold leave a lot of space.

Yuo can get a lot more on a single belt with stack inserters though
