+250k satellites, +1570 mining productivity, 4,5k SPM

[MaexxDesign]

Hello out there,

welcome to my factory.

facts:
1570 h playtime
+100000 satellites sent
+1400 times mining productivity researched
+350 trains
+220 trainstations
3000 science packs of each color per minute
no cheats used
rocket/science base blueprint: viewtopic.php?f=204&t=50168

100.000 satellites:

+560 times mining productivity research looks like this:

Just wow
That is enormous.

Are you playing on peacefull?

[batorfly]

Madness, pure madness. I don't have enough determination to do something like that

[Mango]

Madness, pure madness.

Madness? This. Is. Spartaaa.

Sorry.. I had to.

Savegame , or it didnt happen

So you long do you have to play for 600 mining productivity to pay off the resources and time spent on that research?

So you long do you have to play for 600 mining productivity to pay off the resources and time spent on that research?

Each mining level increases by 2% base mining productivity (it's not exponential but linear). So you need to produce 50x the cost before you get a return on the investment.
As the current level requires 56600 of each pack, they would have to produce 2'830'000 packs so that that level has paid for itself.

New milestones:
18.200 satellites
+612 mining productivity
I build a third research/rocket base because of the massive performance improvement of 0.16.
You can see two of them on screenshot number 9.

@Mango
Yes, I play on peaceful because I don't like bugs.

EDIT:

New milestone:
20.000 satellites

Fantastic!

How much science/minute do you produce?

[golfmiketango]

You're doing all ... really fast, wow. I took a look at your video and it looks shockingly tidy. Although you didn't show us your oil and outpost setups, I'm guessing that's where you're hiding the bodies? Anyhow, damn, dude, kinda makes me feel like I'm terrible at factorio to be honest... but feel free to feel good about that, I think you probably earned it

[Edit: correction, just noticed your oil stuff is in the pictures and it also looks pretty tidy.]

[MaexxDesign]

Thank you.
But the rocket/science base is not my creation as i wrote in my first post.
It's from EmptyRov.

This build is a masterpiece !

It's time to show how it works.
I will upload some videos in the next weeks.

Fantastic!

How much science/minute do you produce?

Some statistics from the last 10 hours playtime:



And overall:

[DragonPrime]

I love this! I wish i could compare with my 430h save but it was wiped with a new pc of mine .

[Dry Hairy Tree]

That is simply excellent. Thank you for sharing it.

[MaexxDesign]

Update:
1082 h playtime
+45000 satellites
+950 mining productivity

I build a fourth research/rocket base.
Now 1800 science packs of each color per minute.
249.000 solar modules and 214.000 accumulators = 15 GW production = 1 TJ accumulators energy

Update:
The factory reached +50000 satellites and +1000 mining productivity last monday.

I'm not sure if I told you this before, but this is really cool. Congratulations on 50k satellites and 1k mining productivity. How do you have your miners set up?

[MaexxDesign]

Thank you.
Factorio is just the best game I have ever played !

This is my default setup:

Update:
255.000 satellites
1758 productivity
4500 SPM

[Szpak]

Very nice base!

Unfortunately my megabase end up like this

I should probably consider adding a few more roboports
