Cathril's Megabase

[cathril]

Heey guys,

Decided to start a new LP series of this wonderfull game Factorio.
I have to blame this one on Rootnegative, since he got me hooked on the game again with his series BreaktheGame. If you guys havent seen him on Youtube, i fully recommend to watch him too!

So Root inspired me to try it aswell and it was pretty darn succesfull! So decided to restart the map and do a lets play series with you guys!

First episode is live, will be doing a daily episode so hopefully you guys are interested!

Yes im using Rootnegatives modpack, containing RSO v1.03, FARL, Blueprint-string, Fluid barrel, expanded tools and Railtanker. I added TheFatController giving me the options to control my trains from different locations and send them from and to certain stations.

And on the remark of building your own! DO IT NOW!! It is so frikking great to have a megabase! But only do it if you completed the main game first. That way you dont drown yourself in the mods straight away giving the originel game no chance.

Heey everyone just an quick update.

Base building really starts to take shap we are currently on episode 14 and you can see the big layout of the factory. If you havent seen it yet, definitly worth a shot of your time.

Have fun watching

What are the green cyrcles on the map?

What are the green cyrcles on the map?

biter expansion chunks

It shows where biters can choose to spawn a new base

[Chess]

How can you see that? Is it a mod?

How can you see that? Is it a mod?

no it's an option in the F4 debug overlays

[cathril]

What are the green cyrcles on the map?

It's not a mod but a option in the debug info like Ratchetfreak allready explained you. If you press "F4" go to the tab "Always" and look there for biter expension chunks. Enable this option and they will appear on your minimap and you big map.

It shows you where biters can build a base, but also which zones are absorbing pollution causing biter evolution to go faster.

To prevent this from happening you can drive/walk to that area and place a box/powerpole(just any item will do) and you will see that they green circles will disappear, preventing biters to spawn/build a base at that location.
