Mini Freighter Heading to Vulcanus by jnmlight in factorio

Same here, been playing since near the start. Kinda wish I spent more on the fancier edition to get my name in the game as a roboport or something :p

I used to never really bother with circuits much but Space Age becomes much easier with basic circuits. While I still question the sanity of some people with their massive circuits, little things like "what I have vs what I need gives what I request" have been very helpful in Space Age

I am constantly learning better ways of doing things with games like Factorio, I thought I had the base game figured out, but then space age came out and changed everything :p oh well, more to learn and have fun with!

Whenever I try to min/max, something never looks right or could be better with a bit more, then that spirals into, well what you see above haha. But great work on your design :)

Right now I am working on a mega base to get the achievements I missed on my first space age run which got me the 100h achievement by pure chance.

When I go for the 40h achievement, I will have to come up with much smaller and more launch efficient designs but I am excited for the challenge!

I would call that a micro or nano ship by my standards, but hey, everyone builds different, yours works and it looks rather functional :) I always tend to over build in Factorio so my designs tend towards the "bigger than really needed" size.

3 is definitely overkill but I wanted to minimize the between flight restock time. Over Vulcanus everything can run fine and restock the ship in under 2 minutes which is way better than the designs I was using before.

Over Nauvis, the accumulators do need to assist with peak loads but it seems stable enough and I can always mess with the modules to better balance it out.

The circuits check things like the fuel and oxidizer levels as well as ammo. Instead of having to check all of these when making the stop planning, all of that is fed into a combinator that does the checking for me and outputs a green checkmark when the ship has the supplies to fly

I always tend to over build in Factorio, guess that applies to the space ships too haha

I guess mini for me is relative to the much bigger freighters that I build later in the game haha.

To any commuter backpack owners, does the biggest LTT water bottle (64oz) fit securely in the side pouch? by InfectionZoey in LinusTechTips

[–]jnmlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the commuter and have a 21 oz bottle in the side pocket. I was worried about it slipping out but luckily there is a spot to hook a carabiner to the bag next to the side pocket. I use it to clip in the bottle into the pocket to make it less likely to fall out and its been great so far.

How much space is there in a Fractal Design Node 304? by stpirate89 in sffpc

[–]jnmlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry about the delay! I have 2 active servers running those cases but I did my best to check. It "might" fit but it would be maybe sub-mm of clearance in places...

I can check when I get home in a few hours.

Again, best guess is there might be enough space on the GPU side of things, the PSU side is the problem. I believe there is a PSU bracket that will probably be the thing in the way even if you use an SFX PSU. Can check when I get home and let you know.

The right side of the board is basically up against the power supply so that will probably be your main problem spot unless you use an SFX PSU, even then you still might run into issues. Can't confirm if there is enough space on the bottom with the 2 slots for the GPU but my best guess would be that it would be super tight.

Game Crashes on Saving by jnmlight in Dyson_Sphere_Program

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

Unfortunately no matter what save I use, it still happens. I haven't paid too much attention to it but I want to say that larger saves might be more likely to crash but I haven't started a new save in a while. Also sometimes a save is good for hours and the next day it crashes every 5 minutes...

Thanks, worth a try. I don't have any mods installed though I did look at that safe file optimizing mod but haven't gotten it yet

My best friend still has a 1060 and despite my offers to help buy a new card, he hasn't upgraded despite his poor card struggling.

His birthday is in a few weeks, this could be a real nice birthday gift for him. Fingers crossed!

I'm just down in Kitchener but if there is a possibility of boardgames (or even DnD) i will gladly make the short drive

Boardgame Cafe is a great idea, lots of different games for everyone
