Looking for someone to play with
I came back to Factorio recently and am exploring designing different types of mega bases but the game gets a bit boring playing solo. If anyone is interested by exchanging ideas, perfecting builds or just chatting...i'm available. My timezone is UTC+1 and am mostly available on week ends. I have Di...

How much assembling machine 3 for 45/s rocket fuel
As the title says. I've hit a bottleneck in producing rockets so i want to plan out a production line to rocket fuel. The problem i'm having is calculating the amount of AM3s needed to produce the rocket fuel for a full blue belt. Usually i use the tool at https://kirkmcdonald.github.io/ but the amo...

Re: My compact monster
Let me reply in order here. I recreated and throughput tested your design. With blue inserters its throughput was only 55 circuts/s. Main bottleneck was copper wires. (snip) After replacing all the inserters with green ones, the througput increased to 88 circuts/s. In this case main bottleneck seems...

Re: My compact monster
I do like beacons but they take up a lot of space in order to have an effective setup. And this is meant to be compact. The current version is around 1/4th of the previous one. Adding beacons will either increase the space needed, or skew the ratios. Setups with beacons can be compact as well. http...

Re: Personel train transport?
Does this help you understand better? You tell me :) (abridged) stuff i'm left unsure : 8) You need to update the schedule of every train that serve this purpose when you add a new place from where you can call train. (right ?) 9) a train when called will go through all the other station existing o...

Re: My compact monster
What about beacons ? you dislike them ? :D they help make stuff even more compact and offset the productivity-modules negative effect on speed ! For this particular blueprint, the amount of splitters i think could be decreased to make it less expensive to build, and also to make it easier for the c...

Re: Personel train transport?
I admittedly do not understand your requirements or your current solution. What is the white dot signal? How many trains are there in the network for this? Are all train stations connected with logic wires or only locally? Could you walk me step-by-step through one usage of this? Ok. Hold on to som...

Re: My compact monster
The splitter/long-handed combination is cool. I wouldn't have thought it would be fast enough to feed that copper wire machine on it's own though... You are right, it is not. I did change the layout of the blueprint so the 2nd copper belt is more accessible. What about this one? Screenshot 2021-07-...

My compact monster
So i recently sent my first rocket in space. Then went to try an compact each production section. Since i don't like the production modules because they screw up the resource ratios, i went full on speed modules. This has the advantage to reduce the amount of buildings needed for the same output. Th...

Re: Personel train transport?
Sorry i misunderstood what you said. I was thinking in the remote access context. Which is the whole problem. I would prefer being able to turn them off trough a power switch, and instantly, unlike the decider and the arithmetic combinators. These 2 should be able to be turned off instantly... You ...

Re: Personel train transport?
[..] I don't think this works. The problem i encountered is that the constant combinators are too rigid (which is normal, it's in the name). I would love to be able to power up/down combinators with switches which would add some modularity but it seems impossible. [..] The constant combinators have...

Re: Personel train transport?
You can have a train do a "Waiting station" -> "Pickup station" schedule. Then have "Pickup stations" that are all disabled by default. And then you do some combinator magic to have a constant combinator that activates the adjacent "Pickup station" when it's ...

Personel train transport?
Hello. I was wondering if it is possible to have a signal system for trains that would transport players similar to a taxi service : go to a station, call for train, wait for train, set destination, wait to be transported. So far i succeeded in setting signals so that my train goes from a station to...
