Factorio Forums

Just to make this short, I spawned in on a new map and about 3 hours in I realised that I was on a large island: large enough to contain many different ores and such(along with oil) but I also realised that there were no aliens on this island and no land close to it. So this is my problem: no alien technology. Is there a way to fix this problem? boat or bridge mod? teleporters? alien eggs? i would realy like to continue on the world but i have none of these. Any solutions?

This is my location:

Thank you for this idea, it is helpful in other situations too but I still don't see how I could get aliens on my island now or in the future. :(

That s impressive

BTW this is how I manage my hand crafting:

Offtopic, if you're crafting that much, you should make a factory to do it for you, so you can do other things. I only craft items that I won't use in volume, like oil refineries, or are really far for me to get right now.

I still haven't found a completely concrete answer. Anyone have one?

It's a map bug, you have to restart. Sorry.

Currently, apart from using Landfill mod to actually fill a piece of land to connect your island to the continent, I see nothing, I'm sorry

Houston, we have land!

Haha nice It's a hell of an ocean around your island
