[WIP] Nilaus - BLOCK BASED TRAIN NETWORK (Unofficial)

Clever and beautiful constructions, bigger than two chunks
- Defense: killing biters as an art
- Castles, Throne Rooms, Decorations (comfortable living in the Factorio World)
- Main Bus Concepts
- Modular Systems, Factory Streets, show how all works together
- Megabases
Please provide us with blueprints or saves, if that makes sense of course.

[WIP] Nilaus - BLOCK BASED TRAIN NETWORK (Unofficial)

Post by steinio »

Hi,

i watched Nilaus explaining the Factorio Engineering series block based train network
and tried to reverse engineer the city block layout as there are currently no blueprints provided.
It is a bit hard as no tile grid is ever enabled in this video.

- I use Logistic Train Network instead of self built logistic control so i don't have built the circuit wires so far.
Some blueprints with stations may be posted later.

- Also the power pole spacing of vanilla big power poles don't provide enough space for a LCC train so my
blueprints work only with https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Large_Pole_wirereach or a similiar mod which changes the wire reach to >=32 tiles.
- Using big power poles mk2 is also possible, but i haven't the techs to construct them currently.
Placing big power poles between the already placed in the main line will also reestablish power supply.
