If you wana get out every ounce of performance of your factory - try to get rid of as many belts and items on the belts as possible.
It makes all the difference. At least for me I gave me ability to make my factory and map much bigger.

Can't add anything else, too creeped out...

You can remove wires from the pole with "Shift + Left Mouse Click" and then add necessary connections by hand using the copper wire.

Bro, y'r mad? Combining Marathon and RSO is gonna be insane. I play a MArathon game with a few additional mods now, we are 35 hours in and we have like 5-6 more hours to get to even producing red circuts at all. And we are already out of our first resource patches, we barelly made it to the laser tu...

Thanks for the mod, it's great.
I think it's pretty balanced at this point.

I know one thing for sure - combined with the Marathon mod - good luck getting to the lvl2 solar panels in 30 hours. Higher tiers? OMG!

You underestimate the CPU power requirements for the Factorio. Early game is light on the CPU, but factory tends to grow fast and not linearly. At the mid-game you probably gonna start to notice it starts to run slow and closer to the end-game it will just be unplayable. On top - it's just gonna mel...

BTW: You should really consider this mod then: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... =14&t=7700
So you can extract resources fast

Yes, this is the results you get when you make a new map and say "We are going for trains and fun" and everybody starts to do different stuff

On map download, when it tries to get you onto the map, it crashes. Only the connecting clients crash, server is not affected and can continue to play. 64 bit, Windows 7.

If you don't overbuild them and make that the spikes in robot activity are not huge, then yes. The problem with the belts is that each belt tile is processed, items are moved on the belt and you need more inserters to pick up or place down things on the belts. With robotic network inserters make us ...

It's a large map but there's barely anything built. I see a lot of random confusing tracks and on large-ish patch of assemblers. There are a lot bigger production networks out there. Well, you have to take into account this is a multiplayer map, that, actually runs and is playable. It's easy to mak...

So, I just posted this http://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/commen ... _you_will/

In a nutshell, it's a FactorioMaps mod generated map of our MP game, clocking at 5.6GB of JPEG 2048x2048 images...

It's trully a beast!

Okay, well, PNG just does not compress that good on photos and stuff like that, so I decided to try the JPEG at the moment, it clocked out at 5.6GB Because it takes like an hours to make the map, at this moment I do not wana try the PNG again

You should really add some process indication in the UI. I'm trying to make a map of my MP game, and it's huge, well, F*****G GYNORMOUS. It took it around 6-7 minutes just to start writing files to disk, then it took a lot more time to actually do the writing, and I have a high-end SSD - I don't eve...

Also remember that maps are randomly generated and resources in starting are vary, as do the nearby resources. It's totally possible to get yourself a map, that will make you swet even with normal resources. Also, it really depends on how long do you wana wait. Because if you really go for it, you n...

The resource generator as part of the map generator is weight based, increasing the frequency or size slider will also increase richness to an extent, likewise increasing richness will increase size and frequency. so if you want large deposits, but few and far between, you need to use map settings ...

Sure you can do it. There is only one rule you need to follow to be able to use single-rail track in both directions - no signals on the single-rail section period. What you need to do, is place signals on the entrance and exit rails at the single rail stretch on both ends. However, looking at the s...

Trains max speed is equal no matter the locomotive count.

The train acceleration, on the other hand, is benifiting from more locomotives when there are wagons to pull. So a train of 4 wagons with 2 locomotives accelerates much faster than with 1 locomotive. Easy to check

From experiense - check you pings? Latency is not a stable thing and can vary wildly - one day it's fine and steady, the other day it's jumping like crazy. Also, there are definetly a shedule too, like on Friday evenings with 1 or 2 people of like 5-6 with whoom I'm playing we get like the double la...
