I will just put out there coal liquefaction technology which requires oil (blue science) to research. Coal liquefaction research should only require red and green (perhaps black) science to discover so you can bridge your way to oil if it is not nearby.

Yeah, you definitely want to give teams time to tech up and build. This can be done with truce, distance, and/or forcing teams to land bridge across water.

Necropost, but wth, I like necroposts.

I will try that. Thank you so far!

How to check the built object right next to the current building position?

In your case, entity.get_connected_rail should do the trick.

Hey together, any tipps how to check the rail bridge length during building a rail bridge? I want to limit the maximum bridge length to a certain amount of straight rails (e.g. max 20 straight rails). On building the 21st rail, the rail placement ...

... It allows you and the biters to swim, not just little river, all the water, without requiring to make a bridge first. The only terrain that can help your defend is cliff, which biters can't climb. Together with this other mod https://mods.factorio.com/mod/islands_world ...

merged with older topic

It also reminds me to the cool comic “Den”, where some ant-like state made a bridge to dig onto an island in the middle of a lake.

TL;DR Let biters overcome water like ants do. One biter sacrifices itself to "bridge" a water tile and others can walk over its back like over regular terrain. Also look at my other suggestion, which is strongly related to this one. I splitted the topics ...

... water as source, wood as goal and then drag the upgrade planner over a bit of land with lakes. The lakes would get wooden pathways over it as bridges (assuming you have a mod that allows wooden paths on water to make a bridge). For this it would help to have some meta tiles. Like one for all ...

It's a tank in the sense that it's a buffer for steam to bridge the time steam isn't flowing in. So it's not a steam buffer free setup , as much as one can even do that. Every fluid entity buffers to some extend. For others the quantity is just so small. ...

... going by lanes of 4, with gaps of 4 in between. Why not 6 belts/4 spaces? It's a bit impractical in the beginning, as yellow undergrounds can only bridge gaps of 4 tiles, but you can improvise until you've got red undergrounds. 2 lanes of iron and 2 lanes of copper are what I plan on. That will ...

... can't just be fast enough. I seriously considered the AMD platform and even the Intel and AMD HEDT plaforms (Threadripper / Xeon) but that's a bridge to far me and beyond my budget. Although the AMD 5600X is a great processor and will outperform my i7-11700K in various benchmarks I've very ...

... mistakes with landfill but not allow building a mote around your base. (Yes, it would allow you to build a island in a lake with a temporary land bridge and the remove the landbridge. But you can just leave a water channel, place a car on the other side and enter/leave it to jump over the water. ...

... to merge the information from the circuit network with the information from the logistic network, so you wire the roboports and think they act as bridge. However, this doesn't work well on a larger scale, because you will add numbers you don't intend to add. You can see the logistic network as ...
