So how many SPM is this if I played with all set to normal? The technology multiplier just makes research more expensive in number of science flasks, it doesn't make the flasks themselves more expensive, so the x10 multiplication you did to your SPM isn't right. About expensive mode, the difference...

I am playing with cost*10 for science AND expensive setting. Basically : - Make a new game > advanced settings > Factorio - Expensive settings.jpg Exactly. So how many SPM is this if I played with all set to normal? btw, with those settings it was a real challenge to get the defense up before being...

I have to admit that the received feedback is below my expectations.

I don't see the problems you mention. I create electronic circuits in real life and when we are routing the traces, its exactly the same like routing belts in Factorio. Mostly we are doing two-layer boards and sometimes you have to "jump" multiple times to reach your goal. For very complex...

Hi, I have posted my base before, actually just a few screenshots. I really was not in the mood for going through all the work to actually post my 160 MB save. But since my megabase only uses belts AND in the most recent FFF V453000 asked for some belts-only megabases, I decided its time to invest s...

Hi, I have 140 trains in my factory right now and I suffer from the fact that the pathfinder is not intelligent. I have several problems causing massive stop-go traffic and even complete jams when "what are you fucking doing here?!?!?!"-trains enter a station where they are not supposed to...

You must be a very happy being....

Keep your fucking Rube Goldberg machines for yourself. If THAT is what my factory is supposed to look like, I will just stop playing the game once and for all. Actually, I am here to plan and build an optimized, elegant and good looking(!) Factory. If I want to build stupid Rube Goldberg machines, I...

I also can't play 0.16 because I am using belts only. I just don't like a screen full of hectic flies all the time. That would makes me nervous... Let me make a suggestion how to solve this problem a completely different way and tell me what you think. Right now you are all talking about belt compre...

I never posted images before here, so I give it a try. I dont know if full resolution images work. Hmm we will see. I hope it only loads them on request. Each image has 1 MB.

I added a comment for every image.

I think the speed factor is important if it gets boring or not. I am producing nearly 100k copper wires per minute and they all get used. Not just a stupid proof of concept design.... I have had no time yet to create screenshot or even made a video. I am researching worker robot speed 12 right now, ...

Hey, by coincidence I saw "1.0G" on the all time production stat windows for copper wires. I wonder if thats a world record for a single player game or if someone already managed maybe much more? Also post your multi-player stats, but please also write how many players have been working on...

Wouldn't this setup do what you want ? Factorio - No need for mining drill buffer.JPG It would function as desired, but honestly, it looks ugly to me because no factory planner in the real world would do it that way. It looks like a work-around for a problem which should have been solved by the gam...

Hello, I am really frustrated by not being able to get a 100% duty mining drill system while maintaining a somehat sane looking setup. With the introduction of mining productivity the problem gets even worse. This is my setup: M=Mining drill B=Blue belt P=Power supply P P P P MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM BBBBBBB...

The packages I installed afterwards are "3D Vision Controller Driver" and "3D Vision Driver" and "Hd Audio Driver". None of them I think I need, but after this it works fluidly.

I got it working. The problem was that I usually uncheck all unneccessary stuff while installing drivers, since I only want the driver, not all of the other bundled software. But Factorio seems to need one additional packet apart from "driver" in the nvidia package.

Hi, I have had a rather old PC (8 years old?) and when my factory grows and grows, the fps dropped and dropped. Finally I decided its time for a major upgrade and I bought a shiny new thing to make Factorio fun again. Unfortunately something went really wrong. My new PC is: Mainboard: Asus X99-E WS ...
