Factorio Forums

Hey everybody! I'm Shroomworks and i'm new to the forums (but not the game), and i'd like to introduce you to my new let's play series with bob's mods, that i've recently started on youtube. All videos are being recorded in 1080p and 60 fps.

So far,i`ve recorded 3 videos with the first being public,the scond will be published sometime tonight and the third one is currently rendering.
I'd be happy if you could drop by and give them a look,leave some comments/suggestions & constructive critics about what i could improve etc.
Also,i'm not a native english speaker,so i apologize for any gramatical errors and mispronounciations i make.


Unfortunately,since this is my first post,i'm not allowed to post url's here,but i will update this thread with a link to the playlist.

For now,simply search: Shroomworks Factorio Let's Play - Bob`s Mods on youtube in order to find it. Thank you in advance

EDIT: Episode 2 has been released

EDIT 2: Episode 3 is uploaded and will be released tomorrow. Link to the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... g1UtPyzK66

Episode 3 has been released! https://youtu.be/z6uZJleflCA

In other news,i'm getting a new monitor deliverd today with a 16:9 aspect ratio and a native resolution of 1920x1080. Hopefully,that will increase the quality of all future videos.

Episode 4 is released (since almost a week now but i forgot to update here) and can be seen by clicking on the playlist link in the first post. I hope you'll enjoy it and episode 5 will be released either today or tomorrow

Episode 5 has been released. Time to get that factory running and automate science pack 1 and laying the foundation for automating science pack 2

Episode 6 is up Time to get science pack 2 automated! https://youtu.be/X8gTDFlEh6E

Episode 7 is up The oil must flow!

Episode 8 is up

As the factory grows,we need to expand its borders and in order to do that,we need to get rid of a few dozen nests. The lubricant production is being started as well as the engine and electric engine production.

Episode 9 has been released

In this episode,we take the first step towards the production of science pack 3 by automating the production of batteries. In order to do that,we need sulfur, which we will get delivered by train from our first mining outpost.

Which mod adds sulfur as ore? o_O

Bob's Ores adds sulfur among other ores into the game. But they have to be activated in the config,otherwise some ores like cobalt,galena and sulfur won't spawn.
Here's a link to the mod:

Yes i play also with bob's but didn't know i can activate sulfur ore.

Thanks for your answer.

Thanks for your answer.

You're welcome

Episode 10 is up, time to go into the madness that is the production chain for electronic circuit boards
Because of the size of the production chain, i will split it up into 2 parts. Part 1 covers the production of circuit boards and part 2 will cover the production of transistors and the electronic circuit boards themselves.

Part 1: https://youtu.be/BilZZH9_EN4

Episode 11 is out

In this episode,we get the transistors going, start producing electronic circuit boards as well as science pack 3.

Episode 12 has been relased. Time to go into advanced metallurgy and get the first few materials going, such as nickel,zinc,brass,invar and aluminum

https://youtu.be/kzqJQ9dsOJ8

Episode 13 has been released
In this episode we continue with the production of new metals such as gold,silver, electrum, cobalt plates, cobalt steel and prepare for the tier 2 lithium ion bateries, by producing cobalt oxide.

https://youtu.be/M8JaVtpEvlI

Episode 14 is up
In this episode, we set up production lines for the last 2 metals that we will need in the immediate future: Titanium & Tungsten. This will allows us to finally go into the production chains for modules, science pack 4 and advanced circuits in the coming episodes.

https://youtu.be/IfzjeIvsmVc

Episode 15 has been released

In this episode we go into the production chains for the module components, such as casings, module contacts and circuit boards. All these components are necessary for module production and module research.

https://youtu.be/AizSEHYcrz4

Episode 16 is out

In this episode, we go into the module research by setting up their respective research labs and feed them with the module compoments that we started producing in the last episode.
We also start the production of the first component for science pack 4: lithium ion batteries.

Episode 17 has been released

In this episode, we will go into the production chain for electronic logic boards, a necessary component for science pack 4 and other, more advanced buildings and products.
