Re: Rocket Fuel Ratio v1.0

The easiest is to accept the inefficiency and ratio it so that you you crack the heavy oil, use all the light oil and then make solid fuel from both light oil and petroleum gas. That way nothing ever backs up. You get less SF from gas than from oil, but it doesn't really matter that much But you ca...

Re: Rocket Fuel Ratio v1.0

In that calculator it means the number of modules in the beacons. So it's twice the number of beacons. Always confusing So I got to looking at the calculator you posted earlier and this is what I figured out I need around 2k rocket fuel for 2k space science a minute. My question is does it look alr...

Re: Rocket Fuel Ratio v1.0

Re: Rocket Fuel Ratio v1.0

The Kirk McDonald calculator gives correct numbers for me. I have a setup that uses 10 beacons for rocket fuel and 12 for solid fuel. Which results in almost a 2:1 ratio: https://kirkmcdonald.github.io/calc.html#zip=ZYvLDsIgEAD/hpObUGt6wOzHICxI5BUW+v1S7cHEyxwmM1Z3jQtIkMJUXEUKedImrJMP5IMGl02ETomxFfO...

Rocket Fuel Ratio v1.0

I need some help. I am at a loss on my first megabase since the fluid change needing light oil. I cannot seem to find the ratio of rocket fuel. I tried to use the factorio planner, doomer, and other site I found. All of them come up with different ratios. My goal to start with is 2k science pack a m...

Re: [0.15] Can't load Factorio

Just go into your Steam settings and disable "Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for applications which support it".
Not sure what it has to do with that, but this will help until it is fixed.

Re: Introduction, Downloads & Release history

I'm sorry if I missed this fix in another post, but I tried to find it. This problem I found when placing a simple blueprint of 2 assembliers, a pole, requester and passive chest, with 4 fast ins. I am including the last log of the crash and the other mods I am using in it. I toggled each mod on and...
