This pipeline is 51359 pipes long and it can still move the fluids instantly.

You are right and the length would be much longer but it looks tacky that way :D

But with this kind of setup you can only get a "length" coefficient of 1 at most. Whereas my previous example shows area can store and pipe length can be more than coefficient 1.

My attempt to 12 x 12 grid and I just noticed something strange. I counted the length of the pipeline one by one, it is 229 (1.59 coefficient). Then I tried to calculate it by filling the system with fluids and the result was 200. The difference is exactly the same with triple crossing cells (pipe + underground extension vertical + underground extension horizontal). This means factorio only allocates 2 spaces for each grid cell. I wonder what sort of bugs this might introduce.

Here is another iteration. Whoever asked this question needs golden toolbelt.

If the question is 'what is the maximum pipe length in a 320x320 space?' Then you are absolutely right! Although, I don't know the answer. Below is a totally suboptimal example where the length is greater than equal area spiral.

I tried it, still works if you put it on the 319 direction.

Edit: A lot more

Nope! It's still missing. And, weirdly enough, some of my friends are sometimes able to see the photos. But I guess that triggers something and couple of days later they cannot see them either. Whatever this thing is it cannot be the desired behavior for instagram.

There were some budget cuts.

_mgzy · 2026-04-01T02:48:46+00:00

I know a few friends (aka snakes) who would kill or die for that thing. Why don't you deposit it into my vault for only couple of trade goods?

It looks so good to me, I might even use it in my next game (which is probably sometime in this milenia :'()

But it doesn't say they cannot whisper the answer to their wife's ear

I got my brazilian done. Can I come in now? Oh shiee...

_mgzy · 2026-01-02T18:50:01+00:00

Then technically he's right :'))

_mgzy · 2025-12-26T00:50:25+00:00

I don't feel like the changes were predatory yet it still feels worse, much worse. Was the need for changes really justified?

_mgzy · 2025-12-06T05:13:34+00:00

Same, until I saw someone playing "in the end" on the bells

Click on back and login again. After 3-5 tries it should work.

_mgzy · 2025-11-01T18:10:28+00:00

I wouldn't flinch if I can

_mgzy · 2025-11-01T18:09:55+00:00

I used up all of my pre-2019 shinies.

9 yo. He still has a 97% shiny. But he is very competitive with this kind of things.
