lol, that gravedig yo.

That was from 2014. Destroyers now run on DPS not burst. We have behemoth biters and a few other tweaks have happened. Destroyers are hardly as OP as they once were.

so good! and I love the bit at the end that shows it actually on the production line!!!

Now do it in Vanilla

AFAIK not yet. Are you sure? Basically, with a four lane track (two inbound, two outbound), so long as you have a cross over between the two lanes, trains will pick the "faster" lane. I believe the A* pathfinding accounts for trains in the way. I've asked Hanziq (resident train guy), hope...

Well, I'm using modules extensively in my youtube series. Basically, the advice I have is all the modules, all the beacons, all the things. Can't go wrong. Productivity everywhere you can. Speed everywhere else. The downside is you need a decent power plant.

Both have extensive bot based builds and are masters at it. Deamon's is particular ridiculous

I didn't mean to "guilt trip" I meant to motivate. Its something teachers and parents have been doing for eons. "Son, I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed. You have so much potential, you could be so much more". Sound familiar? Its called a guilt trip and it works great when peo...

words For everyone who seems to think the world is now ending, just take a step back and think about some perspective. There's all this talk of "of its ruined", "its pointless to play now". But to get to the rocket, the average person is going to spend anywhere from 30 to 50 hou...

I am over the moon (excuse the pun) that the space platform has been dropped! I believe that the space platform was going to add nothing to the game itself. The game as it sits right now should be taken as functionally complete. Sure, it needs some polish, but really the satellite launch should be t...

hey jpas, is this good to roll with 12.12+?

Brilliant. The shotgun fixed means the 12.8 update can be enjoyed fully now

Its like this is two updates in one really

I was going to link in the bug report, but you've already seen it! So this is for everyone else:

Shotgun is bugged.

Also, this update is seeming to break a few mods. Coloured Stuff mod by d3phoenix has gone down.

Some clarifications: I'm playing bob's mods and RSO (with a high level of dispersion of resources). Once rolling, I expect to have 14 or so different resources coming in via train. But BM doesn't really need a huge quantity of any of them. What I don't know is how you ended up with a train full of ...

Wednesday release. You guys just spoil us.

He's just updated with episode 5. So he'll be showing the up to date version from now on. Its really interesting talking to some of these people... They're all like experiemental release? nah, that'll be buggy and unstable as fuck and then we're all like lol, welcome to factorio newb. this game is s...

Unlike load break switches and circuit breakers, disconnectors lack a mechanism for suppression of electric arc, which occurs when conductors carrying high currents are electrically interrupted. Thus, they are off-load devices, intended to be opened only after current has been interrupted by some o...

great to see the implementation of this. How would you envision taking the concept and using it to *control* a part of the factory?

What I don't know is how you ended up with a train full of four materials?

This is an extremely strange design.

seems like the instabilities for MP in 12.6 have been fixed. so awesome... mid week release as well!!!

Some of the tutorials are outdated with 0.12. For example train setup without chain signals ("Never cross lines" makes no sense anymore). Do you plan to update them? Yep. The playlist is being updated regularly, even if I don't visit here terribly often :) One of those was barely useful a...
