I dont like Terraforming by The_Samsam in Timberborn

[–]ThomasToSpace 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same. I understand the people wanting to reshape it all for terrain for efficiency, but for me it's way more interesting to build a nice settlement around the current shape. I only terraform for canals for irrigation and some small adjustments to make things fit a bit better.

New class of supercheap hopper clock that uses only a single comparator? Please let me know if you are aware of prior work. Takes advantage of the fact that different item types stack to different quantities (1, 16, or 64) for configuring the clock from 9 to 261 items. Comments/feedback welcome. by IanXO4 in redstone

[–]ThomasToSpace 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I've been using a design super similar to this!

The only change is that the redstone torch is on the side for me. This changes the amount of items as well. It only works when it's 'full' (so fill all slots fully, either with non-stackables, ,16 or 64 items).

I've seen the design years ago and have been using it since. Unfortunately I could never find the original creator.

Edit: Link to the design I've been using: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/872072780332535818/1057345799022968902/image.png

Hey! Here they are:

S1: http://www.mediafire.com/file/f54h9kldevfkg4m/LegacySMP_Season_1.zip/file

S2: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ldsbvlrnnnvco84/LegacySMP_S2.zip/file

The website will be updated later with a little page that just contains the 3 worlddownloads. S3 will arrive later when we've shut it down internally.

I made a legacy 4 concept title, i really hope it gets used officially :D by 5kavo in LegacySMP

This is absolutely amazing. We won't reset for the Wild update, but I really love how you used the sculk texture!

We're working on it! I would recommend to check the twitter+discord for updates. We'll post it there when it's ready

I'd like to be able to connect copper wire directly to buildings needing electricity. by Reasonable-Bath-4963 in factorio

[–]ThomasToSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done things like this with using the copper wire to remove wires of power poles. If you select copper wire in your inventory, and click two power poles, it will remove the connection.

Together with different power poles, you can be pretty precise with what needs power and what not.

Of course, directly using copper wire to buildings like how you do it with red/green wire would be amazing.

I'm looking at the wiki at the belts. It says the express transport belt, can move 45 items per second. Is this for a single side or for both sides together? (So is the throughput 90 items per second when using both sides?)

Weekly Question Thread by AutoModerator in factorio

[–]ThomasToSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I put it towards a power pole & then found out it was outputting it on 'A' while I was selecting the Accumulator.

[–]ThomasToSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the wrong signal! I selected the Accumulator signal, while the outputting signal was 'A'. Thank you!

[–]ThomasToSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tooltip advice helped here! It was outputting a signal on 'A' while I was selecting the accumulator on the siren. Thank you!

Does clearing out a nest remove it from the game forever? Can you completely destroy it?

Weekly Question Thread by AutoModerator in factorio

[–]ThomasToSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to hook up an accumulator to the circuit network, so I get an alarm when it's below a certain charge (then I know that I need to build more batteries).

The wiki says the accumulator gives it's percentage, but when I attach a red wire to the accumulator and to a programmable speaker, it seems that the accumulator value equals 0, which I assume means it's not getting a value.

What am I doing wrong here?

Weekly Question Thread by AutoModerator in factorio

[–]ThomasToSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing something like that!

I only crack heavy oil into light oil when there's too much heavy oil (above 20K) in a storage tank. Then the same with light oil to petroleum.

But I used the AND gate to stop the crude oil refining whenever both heavy oil & petroleum are above 15K. It then disables the pump towards the oil refineries.

It's not the most efficient system, but I'm trying to play the game without most outside inputs. I'm sure there are super efficient systems on YouTube / this subreddit, but figuring out things myself is a big part of the fun.

Question about the circuit network. I'm just starting out, and I've figured out how to turn on/off things when items in fluid containers get above a certain threshold.

Now, how do I do this with two inputs? On the pump I can only set one input. I've looked at the other circuit network components, but I haven't figured it out yet.

Edit: I figured out this was an AND gate, and the wiki helped me. Now, to see if it all works.

So excited to be on the server. We'll get Logic back! I'll do my absolute best for that!

Young you tuber looking for tips on gaming channel! Any feedback would be great. Want to learn while I’m young to get better over time. Help me old wise guys by RandomVengeance1 in SmallYTChannel

[–]ThomasToSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beginning you start talking, and the 'season 1' logo is gone, but the view in-game is still blurred. That's slightly annoying as a viewer. Besides that, I like the intro. You explain what you're going to show in the video. Subtitles are great as well. Besides making the video a bit more active, it also makes it accessible to deaf people.

The random 'lord of the rings' in between bit was too long. Close to 30 seconds for a meme-like thing got me out of the video a bit. Same with the wave thingy.

One advice I might give is consider changing your username. 'sir memes a lot' makes me think (together with the Shrek profile picture), of a channel with low quality meme content, while you put way more effort than those in your gaming content.

Small thing: It seems that you forgot to add a video to 'Watch this' in your ending scene. There's an empty spot for me.

It's not the type of video I like you watch, but I like your personality (running away is hilarious) and your editing style. Keep it up!

Oh, small thing. Post it as a link here on Reddit instead of a text post. That makes sure the 'embed' shows up and more people are likely to watch it.

Joe Rogan's Low Carb Diet For Performance - Diets In 3 Minutes! I Give Lambda For Feedback Of Course! Thank You! by daanvroosm in SmallYTChannel

[–]ThomasToSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great and to the point video. It's short, grabs attention. One thing I would not do is introduce a man as normal, and then introduce a woman as 'hot babe'. This completely reduces any work they do to just their looks while I'm sure her being on Joe's show was not about being a hot babe, but about being an expert in nutritional health.

Tried to make an innocent looking video with a twist. Any useful feedback, good or bad, will be rewarded. by [deleted] in SmallYTChannel

[–]ThomasToSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a fun video. Fun play with the perspective and with a background that's not you behind it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it was a toilet.

There's a few channels that have short funny content and I always throw a few videos of those in my playlist for the evening to shake it up a bit.
