What about the trains? Where are the trains? Especially the elevated trains.
Trains are the masterpiece of any good factory. Even 3D printed ones.
Besides, I need some train pieces to put in my computer case. It's been waiting forever, it seems. The dragons are holding down the spot for the trains.

What about us poors who can't afford all those painting materials and devices?? Are we just left to buying it from others on places like Etsy and hoping we get a good one that works?

Ahaha that's so cool ! Very recognizable, nice level of detail too ! It's always amazing to see what people with the patience and meticulosity to paint it all can make with those and it's a nice gift to all that those model are publicly available !

I bet someone's going to make a boardgame or tabletop with those soon

Or new brick toy like LEGO.

Think, Factory that producing factory models producing factory models.

Tabletop game probably will be best. Playing Factorio takes a lot of time, playing tabletops - too.

Very cool! I wish I could buy a set of pieces since I don't have the time to painstakingly print and paint everything with my scrappy dusty 3d printer.

Also, shame there aren't models for all the machines, someone would have definitely built an entire functioning factory irl

Waiting for mod a webapp to export the given blueprint as a parts list to print.

Nice! I was happy to see prusa represented on the beta, and it's great to see yet another collab. I wish them the best of luck in the modern dog-eat-dog market.

"we wanted some feedback from our players. A decision was made to organise a playtesting event (FFF-427), where teams of players could play the game from start to finish and provide us with in-person feedback and criticism to deliver the best product you all deserved. "

It's good that you care so much about your players that you throw a party for a small number of selected influencers to play for a few days, and give them gifts, even though you know you'll be critiqued for buying influence by some meanies on the internet.

Plastorio is funny, thank you. I want to make a biter swarm, and I'm waiting for the trains too! Will this work on any 3d printer?

It's been a long time since a blog post (any blog post, or any media really in fact) has made me squeal with such delight! I saw the first models and I was instantly going "I want it! I want it! I want it!"
I've been playing factorio since the alpha days, and my passion and love of the game has never faded! Having it join me outside of my computer will be such a joy!
I guess I just need to find a 3D print shop near me now..

It looks like you created more models than you released. Are there more coming soon?

that's really cool!
Wait a second, how are people going to get them when they're addicted to playing factorio and are unable to stop playing so then they cannot touch the factorio printables.
oh. right. thats the kink in this new thing.
