Yeah I compressed it a bit to still be not too big. I'll try progressive next time though, or maybe I'll just leave full res a PNG. This one was progressive. I almost gave up before the actual image quality arrived. It adds considerably to the size while it doesn't really give anything in exchange,...

You might achieve better jpeg size if you make it "non-progressive" "progressive" JPEGs contain more images, ranging from crap-quality to actual quality. With the current connection I was looking at the crap-image for quite a while, thinking "wait... that cannot be it...&qu...

hehe looks cool :) things i need to do: create a checklist :D i will post a picture of my factory probably at thursday/friday..before i possibly start a new one with the new version..estimated game time on this savegame will be ~20h edit: have exactly the same land mine production layout. super eas...

EDIT: On the quest to produce 1 iron chest full of every items, I'm about 75% the way in terms of factories. But I've done all the most expensive items resource wise first. Lots of the chests for these items are full, and it cost me a third of my stored resources. About 1mil copper/iron each so far ...

Slowly filling up the game with new factories. This times its ammo and electric poles! I'm pretty happy how the spacing turned out. I only have a few more of the main production lines to complete then I will create a little area for the not so common items, eg train gear, pumps pipes, cars, etc. FUL...

now a have a ridicoulus amount of ore all around me and i dont think i will need them..could probably store/produce 100k+++ of EVERY item. but i wonder how much content/items will be added in the future and how much resources one will need for a really big factory. therefore - doing it the same way...

options -> graphics -> x show inserter arrows when detailed info is on nice setup u have there :) 90hours game-time.. how are your ressource fields doing? do you need to transport raw materials over huge distances? I was lucky the map generated with a few really big ones close by, but they are runn...

Revised how belts/underground belts come out.
Decided it was a bit silly that I wanted every single item taking up a whole belt to themselves.

Redone furnace area, It's actually slightly smaller then before but I don't actually need any larger, with such a huge stockpile of smelted resources I could never outpace the constant smelting with fabrication. Unless I were to build lots of high res items constantly over a very long time. But the ...

Robot arm factory!
For all your Army needs =P

I had quite a few moment of just staring at the screen thinking for this one.

Nice work, I was thinking of doing this eventually but never got around to it. My last steam setup used 26 engines and 3 pumps, I just tweaked it to those levels during gameplay and seeing how it was going. I don't remember how many boilers I had though. This sort of information would be good to com...

Cool. I've always thought about experimenting with this, more specifically just outside my walls with belts facing out. I wonder.. if you put belts right next to turrets and a creeper gets to it can they attack it? or are they pushed away the second they stop moving to attack? Man this game is great...

Found my new fav way of making belts. Can be expanded as needed, and you can use your own method of power poles/subs. Main thing is to have a cog supply fast enough, possibly using 2 supplies 1 for yellow and red and blue gets its own for the massive 15 cogs per belt. http://www.aza-industries.net/a...

Starting rebuilding factory, it's been a while and I've forgotten the golden ratios of item fabrication. Testing out various production levels of different items to try and get a smooth running system that won't slow down under continuous construction as belts empty out. I'm going to separate the co...

I am not sure how fast the express belt is. Regular belt needs 2.5 fast inserters to fill one lane (or 2 fast + regular) Fast belts need 5 to fill a lane I expect express to need 10 per lane (well, provided it has no turns which I expect to degrade it's performance to Fast) Maybe 5 seems enough bec...

I realized that I need to build a "Capacitor" that would allow me to supply my power plants with little coal over long periods of time (charging) and supplying it all at once. It resulted in a nicely matching shape :) I failed getting it displayed as a whole, without scrollbar :( What I l...

so excited..

Oh, thanks for the catch. I totally missed them, they are pretty invisible.

Yah no problem.

PS: I also needed a device with a similar functionality, so I built an "item capacitor" https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=745 Same concept except you can split up the 2 end and have tons of storage between. So you do the same thing with inserters facing the other w...

Is that my save in the screenshot? O.o XD I can see some nice new graphics for the electric mining drills too. =D I have much bigger plans for my map. It's gonna be goooood. :twisted: EDIT: I'm looking forward to the next update. I'll be able to play again! current version I have isn't saving proper...

Yes, and the best part is, when they are telling you that you have the biggest freedom in your country :) Oh I love that one! :P And yeah.. didn't even think about language, never-mind then :D Oh and Metzyn I hate to be the bearer of bad news but AFAIK the rest of the the world has the common under...
