A question on oil setup.

In my current game I've managed to screw up my OIl network,due to too many pipes,and it's impossible to fix it,as that would require a total rebuild of the sytem,which would lead to me loosing oil,due to the number of Storage tanks I put in,in places which get in the way. Is it possible to setup a l...

Re: [YouTube] Negative Root's Factorio Tutorials

I'm sorry to bother you,but I could use some help with my oil production Network. I did have a decent system to start with,but when I started adding multiple Chemical plants into it to refine my heavy and light oil into something I actually needed,I managed to screw up the system to no end. Now I ha...

Long distance transport

IN my current game I'm running into a dilemma,The Only copper resource I have access to is half the map away from my battery production,so I have to run down there with stacks of copper for it from time to time,and I also need it for red research packs. Running a belt that distance would seem to be ...

Heavy and Light OIl

I'm having a slight problem here. In my current game I have more heavy and Light oil than I know what to do with,but all I'm using at this point is Petroleum gas for Sulfuric acid,for battery production. I don't need fuel blocks as I'm slowly transitioning over to Solar Panels,so is there something ...

Re: [YouTube] Negative Root's Factorio Tutorials

Ok,thanks for your help. This is all very new to me,so I get confused about such things easily. I was literally pulling my hair out,trying to figure out why my power wasn't doing what I intended it to do,so I could get on with building my industrial base up.I notice that only some of my Boilers are ...

Re: [YouTube] Negative Root's Factorio Tutorials

I'm having a problem that doesn't seem to be covered in your tutorials. I'm trying to set up a reliable power supply to power my labs and inserters and the amount of power produced by my steam engines fluctuates wildly,all around the place. The location I'm using is a bit removed from my main base,b...

"dumb" inserters

I'm trying to automate green research packs and in order to do so I need to provide my factories with a steady stream of Iron Gear Wheels,as I have the other requirements to make inserters covered. My initial idea was to have two inserters and have one take the raw product in and the other export th...

I have a factory setup that uses inserters to put raw materials from a series of extractor belts and puts them directly into my factory,then more extractors pull the finished materials out,but I've not left myself any room to setup a production line for the said materials to be ferried to my other l...
