Re: Car in 0.17 its bonanza

Yeah car is good for early exploration and some cleaning of small biter bases. I find that, in those small underdevelop biter bases, acid spit are usually easier to dodge than isolated trunks or rocks... :mrgreen: However, as time goes, there is a severe increase in (big)worms defending base and car...

Re: Friday Facts #283 - Prepare to Launch

Concerning the Rocket Silo redesign, i am a little bit disappointed that the outer tiles doesn't look like anything that could look like a delivery warehouse considering the huge amount of materials that needs to be delivered to this building... Other building are to small to show that kind of detai...

Re: So... Let's talk about bots, and how to fix them properly...

If i would change the way bots works, I would - Delete all logi chest - Make bots move items only from roboports inventory to roboports inventory (also apply to personnal roboport: must be equipped to receive item from provider roboport). - Roboports act either as requester chest or provider chest. ...

Re: what i must do with this wood ?

Use it in a small setup to produce steam for coal liquefaction eventually...
I personnaly store it near steam engines that start runing with an alarm when my nuclear setup become undersized. The time i react and resize my nuclear setup, most of the wood will have been burnt!

Re: No Path Train (have loop for it to turn)

Hi, do you know that it is the signals that indicate which path the train can take. On a two way line, the signals needs to be at each side of the line, for each way it can take it! they also divide the line into blocks that are used bye the AI in the way that no more than one train is allowed per b...

Re: Double header train stop designs

Hello, When i started factorio, i didnt like double headed trains but i changed my mind and use them 99% of the time now. They allow to put stations inside the base but also outpost with minimal effort (usually). But Its not because you have double headed trains that you cant use loops! For example,...

Re: 0.15 Oil Rebalancing - Too Far?

I've started a tweaked railworld in 0.15, and honestly the first setting i tweaked was to lower the oil patch size to medium ( down from big). Most of the oil patch are around 5/6 wells, however i have some that are 10+ but quite far away... But i think that its more the original setting of the map ...

At ores looks that deposit sizes and richness rise when you go more far away from base. From what i know, only the richness increases when going further, size doesn't grow bigger. If i remember correctly, the first raild world preset has defaut uranium patch size set to medium?, so you will not fin...

Re: Loading nuclear reactors

I think you need something more complex than that. As described, it never starts, since D is empty at start. If D is ever full, it loads the reactor continuously while steam is less than 500, rather than loading just one. Make me think about using D as some sort of flag, though. Where D gets emptie...

Re: Loading nuclear reactors

o/ Maybe use the fact that when the cell is depleted, the reactor output empty cell use 3 chests: fuel assembly -> A->B->Reactor->D - inserter assembly->A always works - inserter A->B work when D has more than one item (ie empty fuel cell) - inserter B->Reactor works when low steam? ?
