Factorio Forums

Hi Everyone.

I was curious about this.

I have been playing factorio for about 6 years, unfortunately I haven't been able to play the expansion yet.

I have beat the game at least 100 times, but after doing it again today I realized I always manual launch the first rocket and watch the whole thing standing next to the launch pad.

Anyone else do this?

I usually watch the first launch, and then more launches if I can. It's fun to send 4 rockets up at once.

In vanilla, when I set up a silo I would often set up a programmable speaker to play an alert when a rocket launches (I think I was detecting when I put a satellite into the rocket?) so that I could be aware rockets are launching while I'm doing whatever in my factory.
