Hi, I want to show my factory I'm building over 190h. Before that, I was played over 150h on other map but without mods so I had start from the scratch with them :D
It took me so long because I experimented a lot, redesigned and rebuilded entire factor 10-20 times.

Tree farm. It was first I was build to mass produce wood and feed boilers.
Image
Image

After few hours it was upgraded to produce Cokecoal.
Image

And this is my Power-plant ~ 143kW (It took a lot of hours to produce solar panels MK2).
Image

This is my starting point and oldest testing site.
Image

Production. It has to be improved because is fully operated via bots MK2 (really fast little guys)
Image

New mine field based on Underground Mining Drills (collecting artifacts is really big paint on ass :P)
Belts have to be rebuild because they not work like I want.
Image

Sorting raw materials. First concept didn't work so I had to rebuild it and now work fine.
Image

Some train stations. Nothing impressive at the moment.
Image
Image
Image
Image

Now my newest invention :D Storages :P
Image
Image

All raw materials from storages are going to Blast furnaces section.
Image

Coal production for Blast furnaces. I have to upgrade it because it have too low output.
Image

And after forging, product are transported to another storage.
Image

That is my Rubber Tree Farm to mass produce Resin, and then smelting it to get rubber.
Image
Image

Game have little lag when Resin is respawned.

WOW!!!!!! JUST WOW!!!!!!

gotta love the creativity of people :P

but i never made that kind of base xD
i always seem to go for robots quickly (i find them a lot better then belts)

and yes, that resin farm lags as hell :P
a new way to get rubber will come at a later stage

Keep up the good work :D

Yes, bots are awesome but they have one issue. When i have ~500 of them, they're flaying all over the factory and I can't click LBM without pick up some of them. Besides, factory based on convoy belts have that unique charm, feeling that all is connected.

I never seem to have the time to just play.
I only play to test my mod :)
I test it, keep playing to find bugs or unbalanced things and move on.

I should start a normal playthrou ;)

Writing mod and testing it is just different kind of playing. Important is that it give fun.

I'm engineer so building structures, connecting them and making it work is what i like in this game.

Your factory looks magnificent! Would you mind sharing a save so we can "walk through" ? :)

Dont listen to him!!!!!!! This was his 666th post :twisted:
(just kidding of course, always listen to devs :P (when they are reasonable :P))

But programming is fun, for me at least (but i think the devs also like it ;))

I have the same feeling when working on the game, testing and programming all the time without the time to play the game.
But yes, this is also enjoyable.

Hehe I also know that feeling. I'm part of BEGames team and after my regular job, in free time I'm working on game Gloria Victis.
Factorio is perfect game to relax and still keeping mind busy.

I will upload savegame as soon as I get back home.
